Lucid Dream Thoughts Hypnagogic Before bed I read about technique to keep your mind awake, but your body asleep. And how to not fall asleep while meditating. One of the tips suggested that I was going to have a comfortable posture, but it should be a little uncomfortable to keep the mind awake. So I put two pillows behind my head, so I had a straight back, but my legs were still in their normal position. I concentrated on the blackspace and looked between my eyebrows and I started to think about normal things just to see if I could stay awake, and everytime I lost focus I did not looked at that spot, so I just looked back again. But somewhere I just blacked out. :) This whole dream was weird, but cool at the same time. Because it tried to convince me over and over that I was awake, it eventually did, but I got lucid. I woke up in my bed and heard weird noises, normally I would DEILD here. I really thought I was awake, but instead I did the noseplug reality check in my bed and it worked! I was now laying lucid in my dreambed and I went to see my parents. Everytime I talked to my dad I was overwhelmed with feelings or something that tried to convince me that I was awake. Then I went out of my house and I admired the vivdness of the dream. I thought to myself "This feels more real than the physical world!" and it did! The dream was vivid enough for the sensations, so I did not had to stabilise that. But my mind was not stable enough so to speak. I can fix this with spinning, but I was not aware in my mind enough to do that. so somewhere here I was aware of that I was dreaming, but I was not aware through my conscious, but through my subconscious.[ so that makes it a normal dream again. I was filled with joy and I did not had to care about anything, I started to climb up to the rooftops and I ran. I tried to stabilise the dream by running in a straight line and it worked. The dream was super vivid. but then I woke up. I was now in my real bed and I wrote this dream down, then I fell asleep again. I was eating lunch with my friends and a girl there that my friend likes was there too. We tried to make him talk to her, but he was to shy. So we started to talk about random stuff, then for some reason we went into a store and we met some other guys, then I woke up. WILD before bed is really hard I admit that. But I am trying to find the perfect way to keep your mind busy without falling asleep. I will keep trying.
