Awakening Awareness Game?Technique
1.Set a spot in your dream journal or on a small separate sheet of paper where you'll keep score. It should be a blank spot a few inches by a few inches that you could easily find when you're tired. A sticky note or small piece of scratch paper would probably work best.
2.Fall asleep any way you wish.
3.Every time you wake up, plug your nose and breathe in and then out. If you can breathe, then you're dreaming! Enjoy your lucid dream! If you can't breathe, proceed to step 3. (If you think another reality check is more effective, feel free to use it.)
4.Write down any dreams you had, if you like.. Then, find your scoring area. If you didn't have any lucid dreams prior to this awakening, mark an X. If you did, mark an O.
Make your marks in an organized manner to facilitate counting your marks.
5.Repeat steps 2-4 until you reach 100 marks (X's and O's). Once you do, you're done with the game! Count the O's and put that number over 100 to get you're score.
