Here’s a question I got:

I have joined Lucidology, and I have watched most of the first videos on you tube (videos by LucidDreamTricks) I have tried the “Relaxation” technique and the “Stop, Drop and Roll” technique in the videos. And I cannot seem to do them right… In part 5, (fast relaxation for Lucid Dreams and OBEs) when I go to bed, I first do all the exercises that I read from a piece of paper that I wrote down all the steps on, and when I get to before the “Roll” step, I don’t feel the “Roll Over Signal” at all… And I wait there lying on my back with my arms out to the side, for ages, but I feel no urge to roll onto my side… What am I doing wrong? I have tried the techniques 2 days in a row, and I can’t feel the signal, It’s 8:06 PM now, and i am going to go to bed between 9:30PM & 10:00 PM, please I really need some help, I usually have trouble going to sleep anyway, even if I am tired, and I could probably benefit from your techniques. Oh, and I am 13 years old.

BTW you can download PDFs of each video to print out at <a href=http://www.lucidology.com/101

Just click the link for each video and there's a box for the pdf. The roll signal only happens when the body is *unsure* if the mind is awake. If it actually is sure, then it will paralyse without the roll signal. However in your case you're not getting the roll signal at all which means:

1.) The body isn't tired enough
2.) The body isn't relaxed enough

If you really are deeply relaxed then the problem may be lack of serotonin from daytime sunlight. Make a habit of getting up at dawn and eating breakfast outside in the sun. That will ensure you get lots of sunlight and if you stay awake from 6 am to 9 pm you'll be plenty tired at bedtime.

Good luck!
