Sleep walking... conciously

[slash112]

I had an idea earlier on today. I wondered if it is possible to become lucid in a dream, then take control of your real body. And I remembered back from a while ago, when I was lucid, I remember that I could feel my real body moving to whatever I did. For example, I did the nose pinch reality check while I was lucid, and it didn't work, then I wondered why, and a realised that my real body was doing the exact same movements as I did in the dream. I knew this because I could feel my real body at that point and I could feel my arms moving, and I could feel the touch of my hand to my nose on my real body. I was perfectly aware of my covers over my body and my bed beneath me and my room around me, I think I even opened my eyes for a split second and saw my room and immediately re-entered my lucid dream. Now, what I was thinking was that we could maybe take this a step further. Maybe it is possible to become lucid, go to the bedroom you are sleeping in, lay down in your bed, then try to become aware of your real body surroundings. Try to get into the state I was in that time I could control my real body. And then just get out of your bed in the dream, and then your real body follow your exact movements. This would be a very amazing thing to do, because you would essentially just be walking around, and seeing things without your eyes. so long as you knew and remembered where you are and what it looked like, you would basically just be guiding yourself without having to actually use your eyes. I obviously do not know if this is fully possible, but I am quite confident that it could work. I just need some good lucid dreamers to test this out, or anyone who may become lucid to test it out (if it is like your 1st or 2nd time, I recommend not to waste it on this) So, any thoughts on this? I would need some people to test it and also i would appreciate any ideas on how to make this work.

I made this EXACT topic ages ago when I first joitned and got no replies! I LOVE this idea and I really think it's possible with a lot of practice. I thought of potential benifits like being able to say get up in the morning and eat something or get a shower which continueing your dream then just go back to bed and keep dreaming. though reaching the control to be able to do tasks like that would be pretty extreme.

Oh, goodness, I never knew, I couldn't find anything in search. Sorry bout that. But yea, the control would be pretty hard. I mean this is a whole other step from just moving my arm. In this, it would have to be really realistic a dream, so that the rooms are shaped the same, and you would have to keep concentrating on that, while you are also trying to keep a focus on your real body, and keeping your mind on the fact that you are dreaming, so you dont loose lucidity. But, if someone pulled it off, it would be epic.

It's cool, it's an old old topic. not like I'm offended or anything ;P I'm glad to know I'm thinking like someone! But, yeah. I agree. I just had a really funny thought of someone walking through their halls while utilising this method, and loosing concentration on the reality or the dream or something and becoming non lucid, and their mind continues down the hall while their body just goes limp and slams into the floor, where they're violently awakened. you'd be so scared! lolol.

Haha, that would be funny. Or, what if someone was to be doing it, then they thought they lost control over their body, so they went to fly out the window, but it turned out that their body was still doing it.

LOL! now that would be bad press for lucid dreaming. it would be like new age fad causes man to jump out of his own window pursueing SATANIC RITUALS OF THE MIND LUCID DREAMING IS EVIL! HATE IT
