Thread: DEILD into unstable dream?

I succeeded in my DEILD last night for the second time, but even after the HI solidified into a dream and SP ended I could still feel my body in bed. I tired rubbing my hands, but I had no tactile sensations, only vision and a rushing wind sound all around me that had nothing to do with the dream. Any tips on how to stabilize a dream of this type?

I have seen this before. I think (key word, think) that you can overcome this with a mantra. I believe it was "When I enter a dream, my dream body will separate from my real body."

Try it. You never know. Hope you find the thing that helps you get away from this burden.
Good luck

Lots of people still feel their body in bed after DEILDing or even WILDing. I would envision a simple environment around you, such as a room, and at the same time, rub your hands. Then try introducing sounds and stuff. Feel around. If it's a beach, pick up sand, etc.

Often times after transitioning directly from waking life, the dream will be a bit unstabile. Firstly, I perform some stabilization techniques such as rubbing my hands together, focusing on my environment and imagining it becoming clearer and clearer, feeling some textures around you, looking at your feet then slowly raising your head to normal position, performing RCs (for stabilization not awareness), etc. If those don't seem to help the clarity/stabilization much, you may simply need to engage in dream activity. Especially if the problem is "feeling" your body in bed, enganging in dream activity will take your mind off your actual body and you will simply forget about it, thus eliminating the problem. By engaging in dream activity, I simply mean exploring, striving toward goals, etc. Hope I helped a bit.
