The first question is - how does meditation make you more likely to have lucid dreams....
And the second question is.....the way i meditate is in 2 different ways number 1 is bidy scanning where i set my focus on everypart of my body and how its feeling and number 2 is where i keep my mind clear and just focus on my breath....would you say what im doing is the right way?
Thankyou =)

I would say that there is no "right" way to meditate as there is no right induction to lucid dream. There are plenty of ways to lucid dream as there are to meditate, it's about finding the one(s) that work for you.

Maybe there is a different question you should be asking yourself. Is what you are doing is working? It seems as though you are confused and seems that you need to do a little research.

Id say iv only been doing it for like 4 days now so its still too early for results i think and yeah iv always been the type to do my research as whats the point of learning something if you dont know how its related....soynds hypacritical but i also do meditation as its peaceful and helps in alot of different ways =)
Thanks for the comment and ill do some more.research

As I said just before on another thread. Meditation itself is a great tool to help you improve your life in general. It does affect LD a bit since it helps you focus and control your mind but it's not a miraculous LD technique. Other techniques like RC or visualizations are much more effective.
Also many people understand meditation in many different ways so it hard to tell.
