This maybe because I have no control over the elements and my control is limited to my body only?
      It is not that you have limited control of your body, but rather that you are starting to control your "body". Remember that in a dream, the whole dream is your body no just the physical manifestation of it, so while it seems the physical part of it is limited, think that your body as a whole is not.

If I understand the basic concept correctly, maybe it wouldn't be too hard to incorporate into my routine, simply doing it along with my usual trying to keep my general focus on my existence (self-awareness).

      It's essentially about just learning to pay attention to and become familiar with how the body physically feels, correct? I guess it needn't be limited to gravity, but just generally paying attention to all the general sensations and learning to always be on the watch for inconsistencies.
      Actually, I always tell people to find their "Natural" RC, something that works for their own dream world. Gravity works for me, but who dreams in the same way as other people do? So no reason to actually bother about this and just try the most natural thing for everytone. But yep, gravity RC is an excersice of self/awareness and mindfulness, to some degree.

      That makes sense. There are a number of common themes and deviations from waking life in my own dreams that I should be fairly familiar with by now. It's just a matter of remembering to choose any of those and watch out for them, I think.
