      Dream duration

      First off, sorry for any spelling mistakes and grammer, hate typing on an ipad, i,ve been a Member of only a few weeks and I have to say I am learning so much, LD is such a wonderful experience. I,m finding that I only LD on Sunday or Monday, not sure why. Last night I had a night ful, of LD,s it was awesome, but the thing is, I cant seem to make them last long, I tried touching things etc but I wake up. The good thing about last night is that I was able to jump back into the dream, but then again maybe I was not really waking up after all? Ihad woke during the night so tried to WILD, I had a few weird hallucinations etc but then just though it hadnt worked, I went to the bathroom then allmof a sudden I hear this wooosh and I am waking up with a huge intake of breath, so I had at least one false awakening. In the LD I spoke with DC,s which again is strange the first time, I asked a cop what I was doing here, he said I had come for the milk ..lol I was able to move through unopened doors etc, amazing..anyhow, what are your best tips for making a LD last longer..peace

      The reason you have them on Sunday's and Monday's is probably because you are more relaxed the day before you have the dream. If you have a job or go to school, I'm sure the stress can have an adverse affect on your dreams.

      As for the length, spinning around in a circle, flying, keeping your eyes open, and licking things can all prolong Lucid Dreams. I would recommend that you also right them down in your Dream Journal so that others can read them, and you can also look back on them and see what you might have done wrong that could lead to why the dreams stopped short.
