Thread: Tips for increasing chance of lucid dreams?

Hi
I started to read about Lucid Dreaming (and Astral Projection) for now 6 months ago, but haven't been practiced so much. (In this 6 months I have had 1 lucid dream, 1 half OBE, 2 false awakings).
I tried to make reality checks at the beginning but was quite hard to remember to make them, and after a month I wasn't that hyper to really want lucid dreams as I first was.
However I found an application to my android phone for a while ago, where I can choose intervals when it will remind me to make reality check by making sound. (This I have also started to use as a tool for DEILD, as it automatic shuts off after a few seconds).

Anyways, I wonder if there is other tips that I can do to increase the chance for lucid dreams?
This is everything I got atm:
- Reality checks as much as possible
- Tell myself before bed that next time I'm out of my bed, I am dreaming
- Writing dream journal

Also really have to make habits of all these

I have heard of some dream pills? but found those expensive, and that I also have to order them through internet.

What else can help to increase lucid dreams?


Also I would like to point out that making reality checks at morning when you wake up, shall be a habit too. It will prevents false awakings. I didn't see that tip in DV's reality check tutorial when I read it.
I have yet not made habit of it, really have forgot to do it, but I sure will get my hands on it and make habit of it.
