Thread: How To Calm Down and Stop Feeling Rushed?

Wow guys, thanks a lot, using the adapted mantra and making a mental list of goals (i lost the list i wrote!) and reading through similar threads, including the clarity tutorial here, i managed to have the longest, most vivid and clear lucid i have ever had this morning. Bear in mind i haven't had a whole load and all of them were similar to the kind of thing i described in the first post, this was quite a weird experience. All throughout the dream i was thinking "wow, i can't believe this is actually happening!", haha but i didn't let it take over me as to wake me up.

I was not unlike my regular self in terms of thought process and mental clarity, to the point where i stopped thinking about my goals list (they were mostly to remain calm and clear anyway, and the above post which i'll get to) and had free reign. I was just basking in the enjoyment of having self control! I said i wanted to practice the above, and i did not feel rushed to do something more interesting. I mean, i didn't get round to doing it as i was on my way to find a quiet room and distracted, but only in way that i would get distracted in real life.

Also, i wrote here that i never do anything creative or "dream-like", and i've never exerted direct influence onto a dream but due to being calm and thoughtful i had my first "powerful" experiences - i became lucid after i got transported into space (stuff like this never happens, i wonder what caused this lol) and the continents of the earth mixed like playdough. I became panicked, then lucid and then i literally molded the earth back to normal, and ascended down. Even in the dream i couldn't believe i did that haha. The second time i exerted control was towards the end of the dream i knew it was coming to an end and, as described above, all i did was walk around the environment trying to ground myself as much as possible, so i went for broke and literally told the rain to start and stop. And it listened!

I know some might think a lot of the above isn't directly related to the topic, and i should post this somewhere else, but i think it is - all those happened after takign advice from this thread and making my main, and pretty much only, goal to calm down and stop feeling rushed.

Plus i was really chuffed and just wanted to share! I do love this community.
