I've recently gotten pretty good at consistently lucid dreaming so I've been testing the bounds of lucid dreaming. My lucid dreams usually start in the middle of the night randomly when I feel myself enter rem sleep and I feel the sleep paralysis come on. It feels like a foot falling asleep but it starts in my chest and goes outward. From there I roll over off my bed and fall on the ground and BAM I'm in the dream world. So I stsrt out in my room and I can do whatever! I have practiced my ukulele, solved math problems, changed the physics of the world etc. the past couple of nights I have been interested in pain. So last night I lifted my foot and smacked the bottom of it, and I felt a pain sensation! I wonder what it would be like for a more serious infliction ofpain.. But kinda scared to try that lol. I've also been curious about understanding my subconcious so I started to interact with the people in ,y dreams. Usually they don't talk back to me, they run away or something.Ive asked them what part of my subconcious they represent and they ignore me. Anyone else have better luck with this? I feel like I need to learn better control to help interact with my subconcious. Any tips? I'm really interested in trying to understand myself better through lucid dreaming and want to test some new things. Any ideas of what I should do next - something other than flying, sex, etc. I, looking for thing that will give me a better understanding of my subconcious mind. Thanks.
