This all sounds very easy right now, but is it actually possible for anyone to awake from a dream, without moving and be aware of it? Because i will try this out.

Edit: I have read the instructions and will attempt this for the next days. I will report back when i can.
The closer to lucidity you are in the dream as you awake, the more likely you'll awaken without extreme disorientation where it is very easy to start moving without thinking about it. If I'm really totally non-lucid upon waking then I find waking very disorienting and I usually move before I realize what's going on. But I do not focus on noticing wakings. It is one of my goals though, as I think DEILD/Phase like technique in the late morning is a really fabulous way to get lots of LDs.

But for DEILD, moving a little is not a guaranteed loss of the DEILD opportunity. It's not ideal, but it's not fatal. Much more important is keeping that dreamy/drowsy mindset and just drifting right back off to sleep.
