Happened in the early AM, about an hour before awakening. EXTENSIVE lucid dreams, starting with riding in a truck, through a large city, flying over deep canyons. Scene changed to a series of crowds in stores that was so realistic I almost lost lucidity. The dreams went on for quite some time.
I'm not sure how to label the method used...My wife got up at about 4am to go to the bathroom. When she had returned to bed, and settled down, I relaxed and began to mentally rehearse certain characteristics and behavior changes I am working on. This shifted into a regular dream that then turned lucid. WBTB? DILD?
In any event, it was an exhilarating dream and left me feeling energetic and that I am progressing in my own self development.

If anyone's interested, I am also using a stack of ZMA, Taurine, sea minerals and melatonin about an hour before sleep. Also, using a Bluetooth sleep headphone to listen to a brainwave entrainment meditation I made myself. If I were to take a guess, I would say this occurred because of the time I woke up and the fact that I had very good focus as I meditated.

A lot of dreaming, culminating in watching Moe, Larry and Curly in some type of comedy skit, pushing and shoving each other. Then, I am walking through a large building. As I open a door I see a figure, dressed as Royalty, and I know he is a king. I see Shemp on his knees before the king, crying and begging. I feel sorry for him then become lucid. The king sees me and becomes very angry, yelling at me and ordering me to go away. He approaches me, yelling, and I kick him in the stomach and drive him back.

I have no idea why the Three Stooges appeared in this dream.
