Thread: Am I close to attaining lucidity?

Congrats, you already have attained lucidity. Being lucid is just realizing that you are dreaming. Next comes dream control and stabilization. When the dream begins to face, try rubbing your hands together or spinning. It causes your brain to focus on the dream world and not external stimulus. Spinning often teleports you, which can be an effective travel method but can also make you lose lucidity. Before you try anything in a dream, it's good to stabilize. Do two or three reality checks to completely confirm to your brain that you are dreaming. Don't get too excited. It takes a while to learn to control your dreams, and you have to start with the small stuff, but eventually you'll be flying and shooting lasers and doing anything you want.

Happy dreaming.

Everyone's different, so you may find it easy to start participating more in your lucid dreams. I agree that when you become lucid, do things that will make you focus more on the dream: rub your hands, look at the scene around you, listen for the sounds of the dream, and take in the smell of the dream. All the while, just relax and remind yourself that you're dreaming. Many people tend to wake up when they become lucid, but you'll get the hang of it with practice.

You're making excellent progress and I encourage you to keep it up!

Thanks everyone!
