any ideas?

Ok, a little about myself before the question. I have about 1 lucid dream per every 2 months that occour all on their own. I just recently found out that studies have been made in this area of dreaming and forums like this exist. So I have been keeping a dream journal, conditioning my mind w/ the mental exercises both during the day and before I go to sleep, and this is what happened....

Last night I was practicing the 1...I'm dreaming, 2...I'm dreaming technique and at about 200 something my body felt this incredible rush. I was tingling all over and felt like I was rushing down some tunnel or something. If this would have happened before I knew about lucid dreamning I would have immediately sat up and tried to make it go away. It lasted for about 2 minutes, then I fell asleep and unfortunately I remember nothing. MY QUESTION IS...Has anyone ever experienced something like this? Is it related to lucid dreaming? Or, is my brain just malfunctioning :lol:

You started crossing over into the dream world, your body gets this rush of energy through it.

Keep practicing you almost had a WILD =)
(Wake induced lucid dream)

Yes, this appears to be very common sensation when falling asleep consciously.

Nevertheless, it also scared the f*** out of me when it happened to me for the first time, two weeks ago.

soundsl ike fun...:lol:..DOes WILDS have anything to do with sleep paralysis?

Hell ya! I would give you info but sorry I'm too lazy and (im just saying) there are a lot of posts of these... :D

Try doing a search on the forum for the word "wild." I just did and this topic seems particularly informative:
