Half Dream Half Awake state

Yeah, I got this last night.

I was thinking to myself in endless (uncontrollable) chatter about video games, going on and off between dreaming and being awake. Though when I was awake I would still hear the thinking.

Another time I was on a bus and I was asleep. (24 hour field trip.)

We were going through an nearly endless expanse of desert in waking life. I woke up, and saw some cacti, with Christmas lights on them. They faded from my vision. I looked back and just saw the black desert, with no Christmas lights.

I love that feeling! I get it all the time.

Yeah I seem to get that a lot whenever I just lay in bed in the mornings. It can make things confusing because it really blurs the line between thinking and dreaming. I’ve also found it’s really good for LD inducing :happy:

It sounds like when i wake up and look at my clock in the morning the number are sometimes upside down or dont look like nubers at all, i quickly do a RC and im never dreaming, it is like part of a dream in WL

I have so many dreams in that state.S ome are just plain odd and turn into real dreams. A lot of them (like this morning) tend to become false awakenings.

Personally, I’ve learned to use that state to remember the dreams I woke up from clearly, and I go writing them in my DJ only after I rehearsed them two or three times that way. :grin:
Also, yay to multiple, chaotic chainings! :colgate: And half-awake meditations.

Ironically, this is actually the only way I can recall my dreams. Until I found out about this site from LordLeckie on another forum, I always thought the only time I could dream at all was when I was half awake. Although I like this state because I can recall what my dream was with excruciating detail.
