Welcome, StarlightNight.

Lucid dreaming means that you are aware enough in the dream to realize that you are dreaming - your critical thinking is more active, and you are more present in the dream and realize that it is not waking life.
This is a completely natural and indeed very beneficial state of consciousness.

Meditation can definitely help with becoming lucid, because meditation is a form of self-awareness, and this can make it easier for you to become more aware in your dreams as well.
In fact, lots of lucid dreamers practice different forms of meditation to improve their chances to become lucid!
