Thread: Losing lucidity on purpose

So there are techniques to keep you lucid once lucid, there are techniques to wake you up, there are techniques to increase clarity, but are there any deliberate techniques or attitudes that can turn a lucid dream into a non-lucid?

Hmm...most dreamers don't want to lose their lucidity. I have never really tried to lose it on purpose and have never saw a technique/tutorial for losing lucidity. Why exactly are you trying to lose your lucidity? If you want an unpredictable experience, then play along with the dream plot (thats what I do 90% of the time). It plays out more like an interactive movie and contains the expected and the unexpected (just like real life).

I like challenges Simple as that really.

Hmm...me too actually. I wonder if laying down and trying to sleep within a lucid would do it? I think I will try that in the near future.

Its not much of a challenge, just let yourself get absorbed in the plot of the dream and soon enough you will forget you are dreaming.

I lost it last night, i was flying and all of a sudden when i wake up i realise that i lost lucidity after a while when i was in the sky and instead of just flying i was riding an inflatable rubber boat in the sky.... was fun.

My guess is that you should just have fun and you will soon lose it.

That's closer, but when I'm in a dream I don't even think about it being a dream. I just start doing stuff. I think the best way is just to get caught up in what's going on around you, forgetting about taking control of anything.
