Well I always sleep on my right side with one arm under my pillow to prop my head up. My reason for this is a little complex, but I’ll try to explain this. I haven’t been on dream views for maybe a year, so I have no idea if other people do this. Maybe I’m just restating the obvious. If not, hopefully this is an adequate explanation.

When I create a daydream world, I try to make it as dream-like as possible. I walk around and try to touch things. If I lay on my left side, I can’t stand up straight in my daydream. It sounds silly, but since I’m still conscious, my position does affect my orientation in the daydream. I usually fall over and it’s impossible to do anything. I literally can’t daydream on my left side.

Once I get myself walking around, I just start doing things until the world gets more and more real. At the farthest point, right before my subconscious takes over, I can actually feel my daydream body at the same time as my real body. The feeling of having four arms in two different dimensions is pretty weird and fun. After that sleep paralysis kicks in.
