Thread: First (lasting) Lucid Dream!

This morning, I finally had my first WILD lucid dream that lasted longer than 3 minutes!

Sleep paralysis was the hardest part. I had to try several times to stay still long enough for it to sink in. Eventually, I started dreaming.

It was very hard to 'get out' of my body. By that, I mean, move my dream self without waking my real self. Luckily, a couple of dream characters talked me through it and I managed to get up. I was in my room, except it was much bigger and the ceiling was higher. I was very excited and I jumped in the air. To my surrise, I jumped much higher than I had planned and then slowly floated back down. I did this a couple more times as I struggled to gain control of my levitating/moon jumping .Another dream character appeared and helped me with this. It was really fun. I kept bumping my head against the top of the ceiling and giggling and overall, having a great time making a fool of myself. Eventually, I wanted to see the rest of the dream world outside my house. I thought it would be funny to take a towel with me in reference to 'A Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.' So, I went up to my dream mom, who was in her office, and asked her where the towels were. She said, "Not now. We have to go soon." I didn't really care, since it was a dream and I wasn't inclined to listen, so I walked away, intending to go find a towel. I wasn't even out of the room, when I noticed a picture of my mom in a frame. Wanting to get a better look, I squinted one eye, but unfortunately, this caused me to open an eye in real life and I woke up.

I haven't stopped smiling all morning. That levitating part was so fun!
