The thing is both times i became lucid were very far into the dreams, and from what i remember about similar dreams they were at points where it seemed like the dream was about ready to end anyways. Is it possible that i'm waking up cuz my REM cycle is coming to and end or do i just need more practice, or maybe a bit of both?
