I use two pretty often; the finger through hand technique and I also try to breath through my nose it's pinched.

LDs happen very spontaneous for me and never when I want them the most. I decided to start experimenting with audio and I had some success in the beginning. Unfortunately, I've gotten to the point where I hear it, but I habitually ignore it. I have started to listen to the track (which has a voice that reminds me that I'm dreaming) during the day and I'm trying to make RCs an automatic response when I hear "you will remember to check your reality."

I'm just wondering one thing. If I turn this into a habit during the day (when it is impossible for my finger to go through my hand, for example) is it possible that during a dream, when I automatically do an RC, that my finger won't go through my hand, because my brain has done the exercise so many times that it will automatically display what it's seen so many times?

Also, I have noticed that one reason I am not having many lucid dreams is that I go through my day without paying much attention to details around me (because my brain is so in the habit of going through school) and when I'm dreaming, I fail to notice obvious signs that I am dreaming. Does anyone have any tips on increasing attentiveness to detail in a dream?

Thanks,
Nick
