I lay in the most relaxed position on my bed (On my back, with fore-arms under my pillow), Saying in my head 1....I will lucid dream and I lay there for about 1 hour and 45 when only my [fore]arms are numb and have that tingling feeling.

The problem is my [real] eyes keep opening and I have to shut them. I also can't seem to properly enter a dreaming state.I see a few splotches of color, but no imagery or noise.
