But I figured waking up without movement is crucial, so I decided to start practicing that already. I have an app that wakes me up and goes into snooze after 5 seconds. It worked like 2 or 3 times but I wasn't able to enter the phase. Then, the day before yesterday, I woke up from the alarm and was still really tired. But I thought hey, you might as well just go for it. I tried seperation first, which didn't work. Then phantom wiggling, which didn't work either. Then I tried imagining a sensation and all of the sudden, my body started to vibrate and I was like whow, wtf, nice! I knew seperation was not possible yet, but then I heard a hypnagogic sound and I immediatelly switched techniques to listening in and tried to amplify the sound. But instead the vibrating just got stronger and somehow I had a feeling, that seperation was possible now. I told myself well, all or nothing now, and tried to seperate by lifting my upper body up (I was laying on my chest). And it worked! I wasn't seperated all the way yet, but I knew, when I open my eyes now, I will see myself lying in bed in front of me. So I opened my eyes and there I was lying in front of me


Still, I'm gonna study all of the techniques more intensly, to have a bigger arsenal! I got up and had a very crisp lucid dream (first one within 2 years, second one total), that lasted 15-20 dream minutes (7 minutes in WL, I checkt alarm clock after waking up) in which I was able to recall some goals and tried to accomplish them! Even though I didn't use any of the deepening techniques (I didn't know that at the time).
