Thread: Just woke up from my first lucid dream.

I've actually had the same problem as you have with getting out of bed in false awakenings, but I always manage to get up. Not sure what could work as a solution to your problem, but I guess it just becomes easier with time. I think it could work if you did your reality checks and everything BEFORE getting out of bed so your mind is 100% certain you are dreaming. Then just tell yourself "This is my dream, I can do whatever I want - even go out of bed".

Thanks for the tips! Today I had another experience, pretty similar to what happened yesterday and it felt familiar. I was still stuck in bed but I could move and see my hands. I did two reality checks just to make sure that I'm dreaming, and they worked. Also I focused more on how everything feels and how my voice sounds. One strange thing is that I started to rub my hands together in order to increase lucidity but while I was doing this I woke up.
