The Naturals

I know many people personally that have said they are always aware that they are dreaming, and can usually control them.

To those of you with that power:

Can you tell me how I can get there?

I'm not a natural but I know how:

A.have some cool dream experience in your early childhood after which you became a natural

B. Have proper DNA

OR- the easy solution

With a lot of patience and practice.

Practice practice practice, as Deano said

What people need to remember is that there is no quick and easy route to Lucid dreaming.
Just like any other skill it takes time and practice.
No one can become a rocket scientist over night

People rely on techniques and aid waayyy to much.

DVs does seem to have wild and varied views of what being a natural is.
My take is that lucid can happen regularly with nominal effort.
Which I would say is inevitable if you develop a greater awareness of your dreams and remember them.

Journal dear boy. Journal like your life depended on it.

Yeah, journaling, effort, patience, practice, all of those will help you to get there.
Also, don't think naturals know how they achieved the ability, since its supposed to come naturally <.<

Here's something that you might like. Use the DV search engine & type in Lucid Warp. Its free of charge & viruses. It is also very helpful. ...or at least it has been for me.

Take the green pill...

But your "take" is that of a newcomer. Let's see if you have the same opinion after decades of "practice".

This. Several years of journaling, working at it every single day, and generally putting effort into being aware.

And yeah, naturals are, well, natural! They didn't do anything by definition. If you're not a natural, you can't become one.

You can, of course, work at it and still get as many lucids as a natural if you keep at it long enough.
