Do you know dream states?

[pianopraze]

How do you know? Is this the stage just before you are sleeping that you are referring too? How did you learn to control it?

Is it the same as the film reel that Ultrabudgie describe here?  The film reel seems to mostly be nonsense playing and your just along for the ride.  Other dreams "feel" different...more real. I don't think all of this is happing in the same state of consciousness. 

 

Sorry lots of questions.

Been doing this in my dreams from the age of 5 or 6. Not more than a few times a month most months.

Usually use it to fly.

You wake in part of your mind, not fully awake, but enough to realize it’s a dream then you can use that awareness to control the dream.
