They have told me that it is a very bad technique for one can not just raise the arm and forget it, it is much easier said than done. Most of the time this technique will just wake the person attempting it...
I heard about this technique. I was suprised, because as a child, I used to do this all the time when dropping off to sleep. It felt relaxing falling asleep with my arm in the air. Sounds odd now though. Trouble is, I lost count of the amount of times I hit myself in the face when my arm went floppy. Maybe that's why I stopped doing it. Either way, I can't ever remeber having a lucid dream from it.
