Effectiveness of "Am I Dreaming?"
I was just wondering if your mind becomes habituated to asking, "Am I dreaming?" It seems if you do a new activity (example, new job) you dream about it (similar to the Tetris Effect) mostly while the activity is new to you. Does the mind become bored of, "Am I dreaming?"
Also, I was wondering if there could be a better alternative. Maybe something like, "Is this my real body?" I'm thinking that could be a better alternative because it has a tangible aspect to it - the body, and thus you're more likely to think about it in a dream.
Any thoughts?
For fun, I made up some alternatives to affirmation,"I'll realise I'm dreaming." No idea if they would be more effective.
I'll realise this isn't my real body
I'll realise I'm a lucid dreamer
I'll remember a lucid dream I had before
I'll remember going to bed last night
I'll realise the environment is a product of my thoughts
I'll know I'm really asleep
I'll know I'll wake up later
I'll realise a failed RC allows me to fly
I'll remember ETWOLD
