I’ve tried and failed to train myself to do it, but I’ve only lucid dreamed twice in my life, both times by accident.

It’s like the ultimate VR sandbox where you can go, do, or create anything you can imagine.

    I kind of lucid dream but only enough to know I’m in a dream. Been the same since I was young.

    It usually happens during nightmares. I’ve learnt to throw my right shoulder back as hard as I can in the dream and I wake up doing it.

      I found this trick in lucid nightmares working well: Talk with the monster. Do some small talk „What’s your name? Do you have sisters?“ It will „distract“ them and leads to a different flow in your mind. Actually, you are re-setting the atmosphere in your mind. It’s a bit as how mantras work.
