I've been trying to have a lucid dream for a week now, as i have never had one before. I just dreamt last night, (not lucid) and I actually did 2 reality checks in the dream. I tried to push my thumb into my other hand, it didn't work. Then I plugged my nose and closed my mouth, I couldn't breathe! I heard that the nose plug works 100% of the time, so I'm really confused and frustrated. Please help!
