Head shaking within a dream

[Dive Bomb]

Usually when I'm having either a lucid dream or what seems to be an OBE although I never see my physical self from the viewpoint of the experience, I sometimes want to wake up and the only way I can seem to come back is by conciously within the dream start shaking my head. Now I know I am shaking my head during the experience and when I"m back it's like nothing has happend at all.

Is this a normal technique used to get yourself back into this realm or is this nothing of the sort and I'm just having your average dream. Maybe I'm way off the mark? Any information would be helpful. Again, I am conciously aware that I am shaking my head, I make the decision in my dream/OBE as a means to get out. Thank you!

i do a lot of head shaking too, when i`m dreaming i`m playing raw metal while head banging:P

but seriously now:P

if you experience side effects from shaking your head, then it is something you should stop doing.

if not then man you`ve got a dream state off switch wich is quite rare.

i never have problems with lucid dreaming, whenever i go to sleep i`m lucid dreaming.

i got a lot of energy to put it mildly and i work a lot in the ethereal realm, so i use my sleep and lucid state as free space to be when i`m asleep.
i do alot of research in my sleep so to say, where i actively and conciously experience lessons of truth from within me, to bio-energetic surgery and mechanical-energetic device making.

the first one is stuff like organ upgrading, chackra upgrading, coil system upgrading, to repairs and new devellopment.

the second is making devices such as scanning devices and medical devices.
like the "overhead" it`s a device that medically scans the entire body in physical and energetic ways, anything that has an energetic reading is picked up so you can map out area`s that need repair or surgery and that way you can plan a surgery with pin point accuracy.
another device like the "substance dimension splitter" a device that targets the specific area of surgery, like a liver-transplant, and then remove the liver itself without cutting, and just change the space around nerves and such that need to stay in there, and then fix in the new liver the same method in reverse.

i`m able to do such things because of lucid-like dreaming.
it can be used for fun, learning, it`s crazy.

so, if you don`t experience any side effects then you have a nice technique.
if you do then you don`t.
if the side effects are permanent then i might be able to fix it with a simple technique, but that`s up to you to decide.

well abayo^_^

If I need to wake up I usually fall. That stomach dropping sensation usually wakes me up. I haven't heard of head shaking though. But whatever works.

I've had lucid dreams all my life and find that it's just a matter of telling yourself it's time to wake up. I've never found it's a problem to leave the dream; more difficult is when you don't want to leave and have to.
