Alright so lately I've been using the MILD technique, every night before bed I tell myself "I Am a natural lucid dreamer." or "I Will realize I'm dreaming." and it appears as though it has been making my dreams more vivid, and even though I have yet to become lucid, I have employed many stabilization techniques in my dreams, making them seem clearer and even more vivid. Could I be close to attaining my goal of natural-like lucidity? I feel as though I'm very close and it's quite exciting to think about.
