There is no quick answer. It is a matter of training (darn it, time and effort again?). You start with very limited goals as far as recovering waking memory and understanding. The brain eventually can do this and the confusion goes away. That is, with a lot of training. The first step is simply to address the fact that when you know you are dreaming, you must also be able to realize this means you are sleeping. Become lucid, then pause and reflect on the odea that you are clearly sleeping somewhere. After that is clear in your LDs, move to attempting to remember what phase of your life is currently taking place IRL. I mean simply are you in your twenties? Are you still in college, and so on. When that is now a part of your standard lucid experience you then do all of that and narrow your focus to "where is my body located?" That step is very hard, but after that you will gain by leaps and bounds. After many years of this training you can bring almost full waking memory into some of your better LDs. I can often know that it must be such and such a time of morning and that my wife has left for work, and that the alarm will go off soon as I have a Dr's appointment at 10 am.
I wish I could give an easier answer, but I do not know a short cut.
