"programming" a dream from a hazy or FA state

this is something i stumbled across last night on several occasions, i was either just FA'd and struck by the usual sleep paralysis that stopped me from moving or i was actually awake and very much on the hazy borderline between being awake and asleep

and instead of trying to 'get out of bed', i just closed my eyes and imagined a dream scenario and imagined as realistically as possible it from a first-person perspective, and slowly it would become more and more real and i would eventually be in it. they were fairly stable too for a while, and i could pick a place and people to be in it.

anyway, just throwing that out there. :banana:

That's about what I used to do when I'd wake up in Sleep Paralysis.
I'd be stuck in a very odd mid state where I knew I could either wake or go back into a dream. If I went back into a dream I'd step into one completely lucid.

Taiji X, your method of programming a dream from a hazy or FA state makes a lot of sense.

Thanks for sharing! :)

Now this is sarcasm! :D

lol.. ive had wilds before but i had no control of what happened, which usually would be some really really random shit.

Is it pure coincidence for the fact that after reading this thread before I went to sleep, I started thinking how I can reprogram my brain like you just explained and actually gave this idea a thought to try on my next lucid.

well, in the dream I was actually teaching some guy a computer trick that I knew. If I only had become lucid, I'd bet that I'd remember what I wanted to do which was to experiment around with that laptop and reprogram my brain.:D daaaaaaaaarnit!! LOL 50% percent of my intent came true

quite possibly! a lot of the time our dreams are shaped by whatever you were thinking about before you went to bed.
