RUBBING HANDS

People I've tried the RUBBING HANDS technique to keep it lucid. It was pathetic to me.
I mean, it made it longer, however I did nothing but rub my hands and say STAY LUCID. it did last for quite long, but I had no fun at all!

Ive had few lucid dreams, actually i've been into it for a short time. but the one that lasted longer and i could have fun, it went naturally. and it was also the one with the brighest colors.

Now when i intentionally tried to make it longer, i had the worst experience!!! : :(

try to focus on something...? like something stable. just look at your hands for a minute, until things get clear, and if it starts to go blurry again look at your hands again...?

thanx!!!!!!!!

I've read that it helps to look at details. Pick up something made of wood and look at all the grains inside of it or something.

I want to add that you should try to summon something. So far I've summoned a sword, an assault rifle (which worked), and 3 ugly chicks :lol:

You can try pushing finger through your palm for a cool effect.

IMO you should exert some influence on a dream, to learn how it works.
How much can you change, before you jump into another location. What can you do, how ot keep your awareness at it's peak, etc etc etc...

But what was the horrible experience then???

The experience was bad becuase I got frustrated. I kept rubbing my hands, didn't wake up, but nothing happened in the dream.

I was just like in this BIG BIG room, it looked like a HUGE library from megacities. But nothing happened, just hands rubbing!

Well, I was all by myself at the place and suddenly a woman appeared, but I just couldn't talk to her, I was too busy rubbing my hands. :shock:

Not fun.

This has nothing to do with the topic but I wanted to say I am sooooo Digging your Avatar Piawaii, OMG that brings back Smurf memories.... Haha!!!

Aren't those memories great?! They are really part of my life history!

Why was it that he was always trying to catch them????? Besides the fact he hated them?????

Did he want to eat them?

I don't know about you guys but I have a thing about eating blue animals....

He could turn them into gold or something I believe...

Oh yeah, that's right!!!! I forgot about that!!!

There was an episode where he actually did turn them into gold(even papa smurf and granpa smurf). The weird part is the coins still had their faces on them and they could talk. Well, there was nothing ordinary about the smurfs anyway.....

Then this other smurfs that were not trapped by gargamel saved them. Those little bastards.....

Heheh.

The smurfs are tainted for me, because I found a comic in the room of my 8 year older nephew once.... the smurfs for adults

smurfs for adults??? what do ya mean exactly? Is that...????

And were they animals?! I think they were some kind of creatures from other dimension... but not exactly animals, were they?
