Is there any way of preventing that?

If you're trying to remain conscious during your dream, does that take away part of deep, profound sleep? Does that mean you're half asleep and half awake trying to control your dream? Also, if by letting consciousness cover up the subconscious, wouldn't that defeat the purpose of what dreams try to communicate? I think these articles are amazing, but I was just wondering....

It involves anchoring of emotional states. I have a post on my blog called "How to stay in the dream as long as you want". Let me know what you think about it. shifter,

When I first began studying lucid dreaming, it took me several tries before I could remain asleep after achieving lucidity in a dream. I had to experiment with a few techniques to find one that worked. Do you have a favorite technique you recommend to people to help them remain asleep and lucid? Hi Bill,

That once a "critical mass" of practice time is achieved, that dream control can become second nature. I love how you were able to develop that conclusion. Spot on!
