so, the few times i've actually gone lucid, i notice a problem that i can't get over. i realize im lucid, try to calm myself down, and once i am calm enough to move around, the moment i move, i can feel my actual body start to move. i stop moving immediately, and just kind of stand there awkwardly, seeing if it will go away. it never does, and then i just go back to either regular nonlucid, or i wake up. any tips or tricks to help me out?
Sounds like to need to...how do I saw this...re-enforce or re-solidify the dream body. You need to turn your attention away from your real body and project your identity onto a fixed symbol in the dream.
One way of doing this is to...move. Run or jump around. But since that is giving you trouble, focus strongly and single pointedly on your hands. Rub them together and focus on the heat friction generates. Continue to stabilize and do some reality checks. Do something you can't do in real life to define a new set of laws in the dream state. Maybe try moving by flying or simply hovering.
Hmm...is that good? Does that make sense?
Maybe you do not actually feel your physical body and you just think that you do, LD's can be very decieving sometimes. I once thought that when I was in a LD, that one of my physical eyes actually opened up, and made the dream end lol. Mybe this helps, maybe it does not, I am not GOD.
false awakening maybe?
anyway when i have this feeling i usually grab something and hold it in my hands and i try to feel it us much as possible and after that i try to move .... it works for me
