>>508623127>it is just you body shutting down and you feeling nothing and going "ah im falling!"yeah, basically
> id focus one by one on each muscle in my body, starting at the toes and relax itno need to, if you force the freefall feeling right: it's supposed to be automatic
your fingers and toes will indeed start to itch, then feel numb on their own, until you forget they exist, and the sensation then gets to your trunk, progressively
do that focusing on your forehead, and you enter the hypnagogic state, which is the state futher into wakefulness than dream
lots of hallucinations in that step (both visual an auditory), though
as to lucid dreaming, I basically always had it
but I don't seamlessly transition from hypnagogia to lucid dreaming: my consciousness stops inbetween (I get back to conscious when dreaming, though)
also had a lot of sleepwalking when a kid: things like tearing down my night light, and using it as a torch to see when walking around, even if it was pitch black, lol
stopped when I once was about to go downstairs and my mother waked me up shouting me to stop
sleep is pretty weird, for me (I generally sleep 3-4h a night, sometimes as little as 30min, and sometimes with my eyes open, which have crept out a few people, lol)
