This may sound silly, but I found that position seems to play a part in the more advanced stuff.

I had several, re-occuring experiences (while in the Marines stationed in Viet Nam, back in the spring of 70.) I found that lying flat on my back, no pillow, arms to the side, feet full out, made the difference between sleep and waking sleep (and OOB.)

It's not that comfortable for me anymore, but it still seems that most of the lucid experiences happen when I'm on my back. (With a pillow now of course. At my age, a good nights sleep is far more important than creating new worlds to explore :-)
