Things not manifesting while LD

Lucid Adventures
1

Just woke up from a LD and im left with some questions i would like some new input to.
In this dream i started talking about going back and forth through time and that triggered me to become lucid. So, i center myself and try to remain calm. I get up and the first thing i notice is that im totally nude. Doesnt bother me so much, but i feel a little exposed so to say. I try to manifest some clothes through my thoughts,while im walking out of the room im in, but nothing seems to happen. I dont care so much about it, since i would rather explore than use up my precious lucidity on getting some clothes. I walk out of the room shouting, STAYING LUCID and with an intent to meet a dream teacher. I stay lucid and its very vivid, but just like countless other times my intentions or wishes doesnt seem to manifest. Im starting to think about a mirror, so that i can walk through it like ive read so many people do. What i find around the next corner is a small, dirty mirror on the wall over a sink. I catch my reflection and see that im old. I get a little frustrated about not getting what i “want” when lucid. I hoped for a big shiny beautiful full body mirror for me to easily walk through so that i could be transported to my dream teacher, instead i get a little head mirror which is dirty and unappealing(rEflects the rest of the dreamspace maybe). I try to put my hand through the mirror, but without success. I try to squeeze my head through and i get in. I manage to pull my entire body in to this mirror. But i dont find myself in another place, but instead im crawling through a hole. Im crawling, it gets dark and i remind myself to remain lucid. I loose lucidity.

Why is it like this for me? I think its has got a lot to do with experience of course. Do i lack the energy? Also, i believe ive got a fear of not having what it takes to do these things. When i saw my dreambody, i was a little shocked. Im here in my dream and this is the body i dream up! Also, i have some notion that instead of running away from the environment im in, i maybe shouldhave stayed and explored there to maybe change the energy of that place. I dont know. Its a lot to work with. If anyone has got some experience, i would love to hear.

I would start with your statement:

You got that right! It is a lot of work. Things you described are getting better with experience but within the dream, so as much experience you get in one lucid dream better for you. But here’s another problem. How often do we have lucid dreams and can we maintain the constant flow of knowledge and experience within dreams or not?!

Going easy inside dreams is a good thing to do, like you said:

Those things are happening to me too. It seems like your dream was very vivid and life like but you still had doubts about things and the nudity from the start of the dream shocked you as well and bring more instability in dream. I would suggest to stay longer in place that your subconscious already created and experiment with that a little bit.

At least you manage to create a mirror, it wasn’t big and shiny as you wanted but it’s a start, right? I remember moments when I’m lucid from waking life which are overwhelming, like: Oh I should do this, and that, this would be great and I need to do this. Sometimes all those ideas makes us unsure and a little bit “clumsy” inside the dream.

So my advice which is my goal to is to get as much lucid dreams peer week as possible and then we can work on our experience. Also try to have exact and specific goal each night, so you don’t loose yourself in all this ideas!

Hope this helps! Good luck!
