Okay, so my knowledge on lucid dreaming and induction techniques are kind of limited. Most lucids I've had are absolutely by stupid luck. :S

So far, my way of attempting to induce a lucid dream:

1.) Relax every muscle, starting from the toes up. A trick I learned from yoga.
2.) Allow myself to sink deeper while trying to keep my mind awake by focusing on what I'm going to dream about / imagine scenes I want / tell myself repeatedly this will be a lucid dream.


End up nodding off at some point. Sometimes I dream, sometimes I do not. My dream recall has fallen sharply - I used to dream, vividly, at least once a night.

Optional things I do:

a.) Lay on my back with my hands at my sides ( I sleep on my stomach/side mostly.)
b.) Listen to .9hz Delta Biaurual Beats. It's just a tone, nothing fancy, and there's approximately an hour of it.

So I don't get it. I want my dream recall back. I want to lucid dream. Advice and opinions welcome, I'm going back to consulting tutorials and guides.
