Instant Trasportation

How do you do instant transportation? I notice some people, spin, some open doors, some turn corners, some use portals, some teleport, some change the setting.

Please describe how you do instant transportation.

I open a door if inside/outside a building, and, even if it's just a place outdoors or whatever, it's on the other side. I just use expectations. :3

Mix of portal and teleportation. Open a portal using organic material, that teleports me between places. Wait, that could be a door too <.<

I picked use a portal, but I also try and spin teleport or turn a corner. I have a hard time doing any of these things and changing my dream setting.

Go around a corner. Whenever I spin its exactly the same as when I spin in real life, blurring in all. The setting doesn't change at all.

It depends on the dream for me. Normally, I just think of where I want to be and I'm there (like the scene blinks). If I'm in a plot where I'm supposed to have use of magical powers and I'm only half lucid, then usually it's teleporting (fading in/out).

I either spin on the spot or use a door.
Spinning on the spot never use to work for me, but for some reason, as time progressed, it began to work a lot more. I guess its about trying lots of different methods and seeing which on suits you best and then adapting it.

Hmm, for me, I would say using a Portal, and teleportation. I think that just reaching into the air, and pulling out a plasma door, and walking through it into another area is cool. But if where I wanna go is just around the corner, I'd rather walk.

Teleportation and changing the setting. But they are pretty much the same in practice.

If I would've noticed the spin as in option for the poll I would've picked that. I open a door to teleport too but I mostly spin. When I spin I keep my eyes open and tell myself when I stop spinning I'll be at my destination while imagining the place I want to be. When I'm using the door technique I simply expect the place I want to go will be on he other side of the door. However, most of my lucid dreams start off at my house so opening the door to teleport usually doesn't work for me. I guess I subconsciously expect the same hallway I see every morning when I go to school.

I go through mirrors to do my teleporting, but I also first think of where I wanna go to.

I once teleported to a bowling alley. That was one weird looking bowling alley! I was like WHAT?

Teleportation. Either a simple short range TP for quick movement across a relatively small distance. Or and Extended TP when I want to go someplace different altogether. Of course the Extended TP is weird in that when I do it a list of places I can go pops up and then I have to select one of them. At that point my vision goes black and I have to put up a loading screen if I want to stay in the dream.

Why, I use a TARDIS of course!

Of course, the TARDIS has a mind of its own and doesn't always take me where I want to go, but I can't blame it for being true to its real-life (or real-fiction) counterpart.

that door thing happened to me last night and i ended up in my hallway instead of where i wanted to go.

I realized, it best works for me thinking about the new setting I want to be. I must feel the new location I'm going to. It can be behind a door or turning a corner or just behind me. But it is very important for me to get the feeling of the new place, something like "knowing what's behind the door".

When I spin nothing happens! Even if I visualize my new setting it doesn't work. I'm going to have to be more expectant at what I want to find when I stop spinning I guess.

I use the song Through the Never by Metallica to focus my mind on a portal and then I focus on my destination and then the portal opens. I teleport a bit, but usually only to a destination I can see.
