Thread: Feeling your real body during your lucid dream.

I don't think its possible to feel your real body while dreaming. Its just an illusion. I know I have had dreams like that before. It really does feel like it but its not.

Well I think it's possible. Eighter you were on the line of waking up. Or perhaps, becouse you were lucid you knew you actually were in bed... so you Dreamt about feeling your real body, hence the FA's.

Myeah I feel my body in lucid's too.
It feels like it's supposed to feel, I feel what I would feel if I weren't sleeping (aka: bed + blanket + cushion + anything else that might be in contact with me.)

In my second lucid dream, I felt both my real sleeping, unmoving body as well as my dream body, with which I was walking around. It was all dark as if I had my eyes closed, but it was an awesome experience to feel the duality of the physical and the dream!

It was as if I was on the verge of waking up, but then feel back into a dream. Yah, it was cool.

Do you have any evidence to support that? No? Then shut up.

I've felt my physical body in dreams before, but I can't remember any lucids when I did.

I've actually never been aware of my body in my dreams.. Kind of unfortunate because that cancels out a lot of RC's I could be using to become lucid.
Practice, heh.

I once felt my eyes shut, but thought it might be because I was depressed.

whenever that happens to me i usually cant move that much in my dream and i try to fight it but im being dragged back to my bed. i guess this happens when im not ALL the way sleep yet. can you move completely independent from your real body when this happens?

Through my last 3 lucid dreams i felt my real body even while in the dream. All three of them i had fa's, so maybey my mind made up a body, that i could feel in my dream so that when i awoke to that body it was the fa body.....if that even makes sense.

what do you think?>

Yeah, usually when I echo my awakening call, I can usually start feeling my real body right b4 I completely awaken.
Also, for some odd reason, sometimes if I go through a mirror, or crash into a wall, at first I will feel my real body, then I will be in a different dream, starting in my room!

Last night in one of my dreams a pigeon was sitting on my shoulder and I leaned my head against it... it was very soft and snuggly... was my pillow.

my very first LD i had (not counting some i had when i was much younger) i could actually move my physical body while i was dreaming, and i gotta say it was wierd! i had fallen into an afternoon LD that skipped the REM stage. During the dream i realised i was dreaming (had never heard of lucid dreaming at this point) and convinced myself by moving my physical feet, and realised that i was actually wearing my shoes in bed. I could still move my dream body as well and the two bodies were seperate (really don't know how to explain this experience because of how strange it all was). This was my first LD and started learning about it after having this odd version of LDing.

yes and no, inm my last lucid dream, my realist yet, i lookaround for a bit, then my legs got all tangled together and my head felt like mush. i had three other lucids that night, one i thought i was on drugs, so my legs were all fucked up, and another i tried to leave a mall, but got swept up in some kind of wind that through me to the other side of the mall

I think its possible. Just recently, I had a Dream in which I became lucid, and While the dream was still playing itself out in my eyes, when I moved I could feel the covers in my hands...Thats all I could move, my hands. Sucked though, I gave up and lost the Lucid. =(

last night i could feel my eyes closed when i had a LD. In the middle of the dream i felt them starting to open so i shut them fast and stayed in the dream.

I remeber hearing somethings though my dream, like one time I remeber hearing my mom coming up the staris and then got lucid and say oh this is a dream I hope she doesn't wake me up and then she walked in and did anyways.

Back in September i had a LD where i could feel my body in real life and in the dream at the same time. they kinda merged together at one point and i felt what was going on in the dream. i think this was because i was semi-conscous. the feeling lasted throught the whole dream so it was REALLY vivid
