Thread: Not in my bed?

Why was I not there sleeping, is is because I expected to see me there?

I think it may well be because of that. In a couple of my lucids I had something similar - I wanted to do something and I knew I can do it, but I could feel how angry and upset my subconscious was because of the fact that I managed to get lucid. So it would do anything to make my LD not that great and also show me that it is still in charge...does it make sense? I don't even know how I understood it, I just felt that way X)
By the way, do you often dream in third person perspective? If not, it also can be because of that - you're not used to see yourself from the side, so it was hard to model this scene. That would have probably failed for me too - I normally dream in first person.

Congrats on the lucid, btw

Thanks! I usually dream in first person. I think what I need to do next is look in a mirror in dream since I have never actually seen myself in a dream before, that way it mat wirk the next time.

Thanks for your feedback!

How much time you were lucid as it seems you didn't do any deepening?

Longer than the last time, but not by much, a few minutes.

Deepening? How do I do this or where do I read about it?

You can call it dream stabilization. Dream Stabilization and Clarity Tutorial - Dreamviews Lucid Dreaming Community & Resource Check it out if you haven't, because it's even more important than induction techniques. ;D

awesome thank you so much I definitely will!

Several times I have entered a lucid dream by sitting up or rolling out of bed, and when I looked back at the bed, I didn't see my body in it. Except for one time I did see someone sleeping in the bed. But I'm not sure if it was me.
