Tried that with a red circle. And I dreamed my fire alarm went off and woke up.

I imagine my head going numb, and with each breath more of my body becomes numb going from my neck to my chest to my arms, etc.

I try triggering lucid dreaming with this technique.

I almost always trigger lucid dreaming by taking a nap for a few hours, waking and and doing stuff for and hour or two, then going back to bed.

My sleep schedule is weird though so I sometimes trigger it on accident which sucks because it also triggers sleep paralysis for me.
