I have honestly never heard of such a thing. If anything, doing this would further prevent your chances of having a lucid because you are training your mind NOT to take action. |

I heard this technique from a friend, and I think I read about it online some time ago as well, but never found any reason why or how it would trigger lucidity. It basically consists of "pretending" that you are in a lucid dream, throughout the day, for as long as possible. Pretending you "know" this is a dream, but you're just choosing to not take control over it. |

Dreams are today's answers to tomorrow's questions. ~ Edgar Cayce
In my early LDing days i have practiced this extensively and in my case it was like a subliminal thing. Sometimes, while i was doing it i felt like i really was going to LDream that night. It was a feeling from inside, but whenever i had it i always had a lucid dream that night. If i remember correctly, the way i did it was to simulate multiple times that i was becoming lucid in waking life. So i cultivated awe and curiosity which i believe to be key for LDing |

Check your memory, did any suprising event happpen ? does the present make sense ? visualize what you will do when lucid, and how. Reality check as reminder of your intention to lucid dream tonight. Sleep as good as you can; when going to sleep, relax and invite whatever comes with curiosity. Grab your dream journal immediately as you awake and write everything you can recall (if only when you wake up for good). Keep calm, positive and persistent, and don't forget to have fun along the way
It could work if you combine it with some RCing, or mental dream control. For example, you are pretending you are dreaming and you try to TK. If this happens in a dream and your action succeeds, it may result in a shock that triggers lucidity. |
