Well, I'm brand new here, and i've become very interested in lucid dreaming in a matter of an hour. I've always been pretty good at remembering the previous night's dreams, and i had one last night. i remember being very, VERY slightly aware that it was a dream, and i was wondering what the next step would be. ive read up extensively on the subject, and i have an 'A' written on my palm to refer to through out the days to come. i also have a dream journal next to my bed ready to go. what other measures can i take? anywho, im off to bed now, so with me luck! while im laying there, i will tell myself things like, "i will wake up after my dream" and the like. any help is welcome!
