recently i have been doing them many times (i would say at least 20X daily). i look at my hands nd ask myself "am i dreaming?" then do the time reality check and try to turn the walls blue. i havent had a lucid dream yet though....this is pretty much the only method i use to try and LD. i pretty much keep a mental dream journal, i used to write it down but not anymore. if i keep thinking about m dream enough ican remember it but what else would u suggest i do?
