2.8. How can I prevent premature awakening?
A common problem for beginners is remaining in the dream after
becoming Lucid. They become so excited once they realize that they are
dreaming that they wake up right away. There are many reasons for
being excited, but it will only work against your goal. You need to
suppress that feeling. If your dream show signs of ending, maybe loss
of detail or your dream just go black, then spinning may help bringing
the dream back. Before you feel your physical body you should spin
your dream body. That is going round and round. Also remind yourself
that the next scene will be a dream. To ensure that it is a dream
should you do a RT. Just moving, running or jumping can prolong your
Lucid Dream, you might also want to try spinning out in the
gravity-free universe. When you open your eyes you may be surprised to
find yourself in the most beautiful environment with stars, galaxies
and planets. Another technique is saying out loud: "Clarity
now!". Just stating out loud your desire and intention may do
incredible things to your dream. You might want to try other commands
like: "Increase lucidity now!", "Create visuals now!" and "Stay
calm!". Theta training may make it easier for you to stay in the
Dream, it will also make it easier to induce WILD and recall Dreams.
