Yeah, it can be difficult. Sometimes I wake up and am wide awake, and it's hard to get back to sleep. I go through phases though, as I used to be able to go back to sleep very easily, but now it's harder, so the exercising more helps me. I think that I am too hurried, I want to lucid dream NOW, so I am impatient and that makes it harder to sleep. I have to remind myself that it can take me a couple of weeks. That doesn't make it much easier, as I can't wait to start LDing again! ( like you I am returning to LDing after a break).
For me, what helped the most to have lucids was focusing on having excellent dream recall, as the more detail I remembered my dreams, the more 'real' they seemed whilst dreaming the,...the more aware I was in the dream, and then I was sitting at a high awareness...everything seems real and my thought processes are clear, ...that's when I would slip into lucid dreaming. I was having several a month, not practicing any RCing.
