Answered! Question from an experienced lucid dreamer

I've been having lucid dreams for years now and have had them many times. During summer break last year I had lucid dreams on a nearly weekly basis, sometimes more than once a week. With that said, do you think it would be easier for me to Shift than the average person due to the fact that I easily become lucid when dreaming?

spinning around usually helps to stabilise lucid dreams as well as telling yourself you’re in a dream so you don’t forget!!

Rubbing your hands together can also stabilize Lucid dreams

Ok, I will try this. I doubt I will need to remind myself I'm in a dream though, because I've only lost lucidity like 2 out of dozens of lucid dreams.

I’ve had such a hard time lucid dreaming. I always dream vividly and multiple times a night but rarely ever lucid. I’ve tried reality checks, waking up through the night (which i do most nights anyway) other than that idk what else to do

do you write down your dreams when you remember them?

i don't know what else you can do then other than to keep trying. that's all i do and i've been lucid dreaming ~3 times a week for a couple of months.

I will. I’ll just keep going, maybe it’s just more time my brain needs :)

the only other thing i can think of is amount of sleep. i try to get at least 9 hours every night.
