Thread: Flying

Good for you . Keep up the good work

Cool, I can only jump 5 feet high.

When I tried flying, I jumped and spread my arms, accidentally did a half flip, and cruised around, flying on my back for a while.
And I jumped 30 feet up, got scared, and aimed for a murky river to break my fall, woke me up.

Worst experience ever was I fell asleep on the settee with my patio doors open one hot day. I could hear next door neighbours children playing just like I was wide awake, then this shadow appeared and I could feel him breathing on me and I couldn't move for what seemed like ages. I only experience lucid and paralysed sleep when i drop off or go back to sleep after having eight hours. I never get it in the night thank god.

ps Also very scarey rising above the bed and looking at yourself asleep from the ceiling I get that quiet a lot.

Crazy experience!!

Erm... speaking of which, just going to pop this over to the Lucid Experiences forum

How real does flying feel like ? Can you fell the wind, gravity Etc. Also do you remember it like awake memories?

I never feel the wind and see pretty secenery like other do, just raising above the bed looking at myself sleeping on the bed then taking off and i wanna get back to my bed and have to fight real hard. I hate this lucid with a vengance.

Have you tried like... actually getting rid of that? You could close your eyes, that should stop lucidity or at least the flying. Get creative <.<

My first lucid three nights ago, i flew(in the house to ceiling height) and i can tell you that it felt absolutely real. I did feel gravity too!
Everyone who wants to fly, i really suggest superman style, just raise one arm up high and the other one about half-way up, and just believe in yourself!
The moment i was lucid i automatically raised my hands and just flew up, i didnt have any problems with control or anything, it went natural

In my first lucid dream I started with a very unusual flying practice. There was a crowd of people walking towards me (I was standing in front of some church) and I repeatedly jumped off the ground towards one of them, flying in his direction and and kicked him away. For some reason I was wearing army boots. My father was among the crowd, but I didn't kick him. After doing that for a while, I realized I was wasting time and started flying around. In another lucid dream I had I had trouble flying properly and was floating just above some people on a beach. Moving in mid-air seemed incredibly hard at that moment for some reason.

I hate superman flying style, i just go head first with my arms by my side or in a sort of upright postion. flying is also natural for me

I do feel gravity, though I didn't in my very first LDs. And I suggest shapeshifting into a bird, if you manage to do the shapeshifting part, flying should not be a problem. By the way, swoops are awesome.
