I am a beginner, and i have been practicing for about the last 6 weeks. I have been using the WBTB method with no success.. until last night! I woke up in the middle of the night because I told myself to wake up before (auto-suggestion), and i tried not to move too much. I then recalled the dream I had just awoken from and imagined what it would have been like to see my hands in that dream while falling back to sleep. THEN, my whole body tingled and i felt weird. I heard kind of a "whooshing," sound and founf myself in a dream. I had gotten up out of bed in this dream and walked around the house i was in. At first I thought "Astral projection?"... Then I realized no, it was just a dream. I turned around to look in my bed to see if I was still sleeping there, and a scary looking man was laying there.I ran towards him and jumped up and destroyed him with my fists. I must have woken up soon after, because it seemed to fade into the course that a natural dream takes. I only had, i'm guessing, about 1/4 lucidity and could only partially control it. But I sure hope this means progress for the future!

Thanks for reading! This is my first post.
