      Dream Continuance

      I am not able to have a lucid dream at will. They are spontaneous occurrences so far. I'd like to work towards it, but in the mean time I have a related question.

      If you can't actually control your dreams are there ways to fall back into the same dream after awakening? For instance, we've all woken up during a dream at the most inopportune time. (Grandma's about to tell you where the family fortune is buried, etc) Some dreams are so great you don't want them to end. Sometimes I fall back to sleep and the dream continues and other times it doesn't and it's lost forever.

      Is there anything we can do to increase the chances of continuing a dream? My existing approach is, "quick fall back to sleep and pretend you never woke up." But, it dosn't work so well.
      They tell me I'm weird.

      Here is some information from the Tutorial section of this site that might help you.

      I personally try that same tech. of pretending I never woke up...but if I do fully awake then I try to assume the same position I was in when I awoke and then concentrate on the last few moments of that particular dream. It works more than half the time for myself...hope this helps.

      I used to use dream re-entry before I'd learned about LDing and it worked reasonably well. I did it through visualtion, where I basically tried "finishing" the dream and would end up slipping into it.
