Can anyone reccommend techniques for ensuring I become lucid?

Its a bit hit and miss at the moment - I usually have to think alot about doing it throughout the day for it to happen. I want to be able to be sure i can make it happen. any tips?

Sorry - just found the right please to look.

Try listening to Binaural beats. (Theta ones to be specific). Ensure that the headphones don't come off while you sleep, tie a blindfold that goes over your ears to help.

Works for me. It's still very easy to forget and lose lucidity but it helps for sure.
Youtube binaural beats..it's trippy stuff.

There is no external way of ensuring you become lucid while sleeping. Just keep thinking about it.

be patient. It takes time. you need to try out different techniques because some people are better at certain techniques than others. Give each technique a certain amount of time before moving on to a new one, even if it doesn't work for a few weeks. Stay positive and patient, do reality checks, write in your dream journal, and figure out how you're going to try your techniques, and you'll get it eventually. I can't say which one would ensure you an LD because I don't know how your mind works or the way you sleep. Sorry.

the more you read about it the easier it gets.
you can always learn more about it, lucid food, how the dreaming mind works and so on.
the way i got my first lucids where WBTB and then DILD.

Sorry whats WBTB & DILD?
