Hi Raklet,

How interesting, last night I just experienced exactly the same as you described here :-)

I was trying to get to a dream without losing awareness, but also I got awake by the strong heartbeating. But it's really a special feeling, isnt't it, knowing your body is asleep but your mind is still awake.

To give you some courage: I experienced my first LD later that night :-)
