Watch this and train your mind to RC doorways you walk through.

I've been meaning to try this. I'm sure it will give good results, i just need to actually be bothered to do it. Maybe i'll start doing it from now on

Or maybe i won't, i'll have to wait and see.

Good idea! I'm going to try this.

It's already been up, but not many have much success with it. People forget to do it

Yeah, eh...i haven't done it once today. Lol.

I've remembered like 5 times a minute after i've walked through a door, like -- "Oh crap! Reality check!"

Yeah... I actually made that. Haha it's my youtube claim to fame- but a lot of people don't understand it and are like "WTF?"

The video is supposed to just be a "supplement" to help you start the habit of doing reality checks whenever you walk through doorways. Watching the video will do nothing for you, unless you are actually trying create a habit.

CAUTION: Remember to actually do reality checks whenever you walk through a doorway. If you are constantly saying "Is this a dream? No", then the "No" will carry over into the habit. In other words, you do not want to get into a dream, walk through a doorway and go "Is this a dream? No." So just remember to ALWAYS follow through with a full reality check when you walk through those doorways.

Most people agree, it is EXTREMELY hard to remember to do reality checks when you walk through doorways. This is because everyone walks through doorways so many damn times every minute of every day. It's an extremely hard habit to start. HOWEVER, that's why it is such a good way to lucid dream. If you succeed at making the habit- you will most likely have several lucid dreams every night.

Remember, you want to make it a habit. It needs to be second nature. And you need to do a real reality check each time.

OK, today is the day that I don't miss ONE doorway reality check...I'll post back at night and tell you how it goes for me! I need to be very aware...

I don't think I've missed one yet today. Touches Wood.

I often focus less on the act of walking through a doorway, and more on the feeling of entering into a new room through the doorway. I hope that makes sense. I think when it gets down to it, stuff like that is really just personal preference.

I've actually thought of doing this but one thing deters me. I am in school so what's a good RC that I can do quickly without tons of people thinking that I am out of my mind?

Some people don't really know how to do this, but when you swallow, a 'flap' covers part of your throat so you don't inhale food/water. If you close that 'flap' and try to inhale, it won't work. If you do it in a dream, you'll still breathe. I always use that as a reality check; it's really inconspicuous.

I forget nearly half the time going through doorways, though. This one really is hard to start up... I should get a watch implanted in my arm or something that shocks me every 30 minutes so I do regular reality checks.
