Hi All,

After waking from my second non-lucid dream last night, I realized that I woke up when a dream character was challenging me to a fight (I thought he was going to fight his grandmother, which for some reason was o.k. with me!) I woke up just as I was getting ready to kick his butt. I wanted to get back into that dream really bad and teach this guy a lesson.

So, after writing the dream down in my journal, I tried to get back into the dream and ended up popping in and out of a dream-like scene with the guy in it as a clerk in a local hardware store. As I tried to focus in more, I ended up in an odd state of mind that has happened a few times in the last few weeks. I'm totally aware of my body and can feel and hear my deep, steady breathing as if I'm asleep. I can even shift around a bit without my body "waking up" If someone comes into the room, I can open my eyes and be instantly aware, not tired or groggy. It's the most peaceful state of mind. I tried to dream or create something, but just kept having sensations like that "buzz" you get when you almost fall while rocking back on a chair or something. Except it wasn't scarey. It felt good. VERY good. If I had to guess, I'd say that I was in that state for 30-45 minutes before I attempted to let go and stop trying to do anything to see what would happen. Apparently I feel into normal sleep and had the third non-lucid dream of the night which had nothing to do with the dream I was attempting to re-enter.

Ideas? Comments?

Thanks
Bill
