Has anyone got any advice on how to stop yourself from waking up after becoming Lucid? Thanks for any advice^^

one tip would be to spin around in your dream. like a child would.
also keep telling yourself to stay calm... most times you wake up is because you get so excited that you have become lucid thst you wake yourself up

!!

What I do to stop from waking up too early is to calm myself down once I'm lucid, cause I tend to get very exited and hyper. Or I rub my hands together to stabilize. Some members say spinning helps, and it can also help to do a reality check as they are also good for keeping the dream stable.

I would try these but the problem is that as soon as I determined that I was dreaming I instantly woke up. I didn't get to influence the dream at all other than performing my reality check......

I think that after few times you shouldn't awake instantly you will get used to it

Argh same thing happened last night

Guess I'll just keep practising.

Yeah this night i had it too realized that im in dream and few second after i started to feel that im geting up started to breath deeply but think i wasnt breething deeply enough and i awake.
