do a RC in that Moment. Not to verify the dream state (you already know), but to make yourself realize that it REALLY IS dream. Positive RCs can be strong stabilizers. |

Recently about once a night I'll have a moment in my dreams where I just know it's a dream. I don't notice anything off or do a RC. I just somehow become aware that it's a dream. When this happens one of two things has happened. Either I wake up, or do nothing about it, and go on with the dream non lucid. Im asking for advice on getting from this slight moment of realization to a complete lucid dream. Any help is appreciated |

Just before you go to sleep, imagine becoming lucid, remembering your dream goal, and achieving it. Rehearsing like this will help you be more prepared upon becoming lucid. |

Technically, if you know it's a dream, then that is an LD. |

The problem is that I never really think to do an RC or anything. It's just a brief moment that's very hazy. I will visualize my self doing a RC before bed because I think it might help. |

set intention to STOP next time you have this hazy feeling. stop, think about what that means and do a long deep nosepinch. having a concrete goal what you want to do with your lucid helps too! |
|
Along with Dolphin's suggestion of visualizing yourself becoming lucid, I'd suggest using a mantra as you fall asleep. Something like, "I will do a RC next time I find myself in a dream" |

Spoiler for Goals:
It did occur to me that although you have that feeling of "just knowing it is a dream", you might be fooling yourself, i.e. It's all in the dream, including that feeling, and you are kidding yourself that there is conscious involvement. I have had that feeling a few times but concluded later that maybe I was fooling myself. |
