Thread: How can I know which technique to pick?

First attempts can go well for a variety of reasons, from heightened expectation to the placebo effect (in other words, it was going to work no matter what you did); so don't be too disappointed if your second attempt didn't go well. Keep your hopes up for the third...or the fourth.

I have two questions for you tho.

====FIRST====

All lucid dreams(WILD ones and SSILD ones) I have had happened in the morning(6am or so)
BUT I always wake up from the dreams several minutes before 7am.
No one wakes me up, disturbs me nor I have to go to school(still holidays). I just want my dreams to last longer than 5 minutes.
HOW?

====SECOND====
How can I wake up naturally more often?
I only know that water trick(haven't tried because I am usually not thirsty)
And mantra way(does not work for me)
