Welcome!!! 2 LDs/month on your own is pretty awesome Yea, practice helps, and luckily you are getting those two per month so you'll be able to practice. Studying lucid dreaming and understanding some of the science, theory, and experiences of other members can really help too, though. Of course the best is to study and practice at the same time Let me know if you have any questions regarding the study of lucid dreaming! And good luck with the practice!!
