Thread: Question About Reality Checks

I think it was a random event.. It happened because you now understand your dreams and know that things like that are not possible, however i dont think there is a magic way to 'pay attention' in all your dreams. That's why the techniques often focus on one thing, a common dream sign like a faulty light switch, a dog with 2 heads..etc

The best i can suggest are some affirmations before bed, on my wall i have a list of statements that i repeat. You could have one saying, "I will notice i am dreaming when i see morphing creatures" or one I have is, "I will be aware of my surroundings and notice anything that is impossible in real life" Repeat those over and over each night, and science tells us it should stick.. Good luck.
