Welcome to the DILD workbooks BehindTheDream.

So you have DEILDs working for you, keep that up and it sounds like you would like to get DILDs going too, which often do come with an aha moment in my experience. Your list of dream signs can help, especially if you have any powerful ones (i.e. someone close who passed away showing up alive or anything that seems impossible in waking life). Do you have any like that?

Along with "I'm dreaming" I find "If this were a dream, I would..." and thinking of all the great things I could do. It seems to get my mind in the right place for thinking of these fantastic possibilities from within the dream, trying the thing and when it works that gives me the confirmation that I'm dreaming. It can be a fun practice. One example is being in traffic and thinking "If I were dreaming, I'd fly up and over this traffic. I'm not sure if you can imagine this with the road block you mentioned but perhaps you can think of how you could get to where you are going faster in my traffic example.
