If it helps, set your watch or your phone to beep every hour. When you hear that beep - reality check. Try to do 3, because in dreams, RCs can fail.
My RC is to check the time (ask if it's logical and also I ask myself if I can remember what I did before this point), I pinch my nose and try to breathe through it, I try to push my fingers through my palm (while doing these two, I fully believe that I will a) be able to breathe and b) my fingers will go right through my hand) and then I check the time again.
