So for about two weeks, I have been doing the RCs and everything like im supposed to, constantly asking myself if im dreaming or not. I've had my dream journal going for all that time as well. However,when I'm dreaming I just idly go through it, with absolutely no awareness at all.

I know that I need to practice awareness during the day, but I'm not sure how to. I'm just not good at being aware of stuff. How should I practice this? What techniques should I use to get better? I'm fairly sure that if I just improved my awareness, I would be able to recognize dream signs easier and RC in dreams. I haven't had any LDs before but really excited to have one, so any general tips would be appreciated too.
