attaining lucidity with an inception like tactic

[jordanprice]

well I came up with this idea by taking the totem concept from inception and altering it to be more legitimate. what my theory is is that I have this top like thing on me at able times and when I'm sitting down I put it on the table or any surface where I can easily see it. my idea is that I will get so used to seeing this top in my everyday life that if its out of place I might notice and realize I'm in a dream. another way it'd work is if it was there. because it might remind you of lucid dreaming and you'll wonder if you're in a dream or not. comment on your thoughts

This is basically like a reality check. I wouldn't rely on this to have lucids.

Could work though... The act of placing the totem would help trigger a thought process centered around "am I dreaming?" I might give it a try.

I think it's a good idea, go for it. I've thought about something like this myself, like a small rock in my pocket to remind me to RC. If it works for you, great, whatever keeps you thinking about lucid dreaming is probably a good idea. =)

Just ordered dog tags with the word EXTRACTOR on them. That way I can do the text-reading reality check, be constantly reminded, etc!
