Right before going to sleep, tell yourself "I will have a lucid dream", "I will have a lucid dream." Also, think of a sign that will serve as a reminder that you are dreaming. For me, it's falling and not feeling pain. When I fall in a dream, I immediately check to see if there's pain and when there isn't, I realize right away I'm dreaming and enjoy the wonders of a lucid dream. Good luck!

Okay...now that I have your attention...go to this website. It's THE BEST out there. There is not better ones:

www.dreamviews.com

It will tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about lucid dreaming techniques, and tips from real people on the forums. As for not having a lucid dream in 2 months...don't try so hard! I've noticed that the less I try to have a lucid dream, the more I have them! You can try different techniques, but don't get too worked up about it. It will put you in the wrong state of mind before bed.

When I first became interested in lucid dreaming, I tried a lot of different methods to help it along. The ones that worked best for me were trying to keep my mind focused before I fell asleep, thinking "Tonight when I'm dreaming, I'll realize I'm dreaming" or other affirmations like that. Another helpful method was getting my brain in the habit of asking "Is this a dream?" whenever something out of the ordinary happened. When you get your brain in that habit in your waking life, it can show through to your subconscious, so when odd things happen in your dream, you'll ask yourself if you're dreaming. Odds are you've had some lucid dreams already, but a lot of the time when you first start trying to lucid dream the excitement of realizing you're dreaming wakes you up right away. Just keep practicing, it can take a while.

It can take a lot of practice.

Try these:

Constantly ask yourself, "am I dreaming" until the answer is yes.
Trace back your memories until there seems to be no explanation for them. Then, test if you are dreaming by doing something that would be safe like flicking a light switch on or off (if it doesn't get any darker or brighter, you are dreaming), pushing your finger through a solid object or the back of your hand.

Write something like "AM I DREAMING?" on the back of your hand while you're awake. Every time you see it, ask yourself if you are, and every time it fades, write it on again. Eventually, you will dream that it is on the back of your hand and the answer will be yes.

To quote the song Silent Lucidity, by the band Queensryche, and this does work, "Visualize your dreams, record them in the present tense, put it into a permanent form. If you persist in your efforts, you will achieve dream control." That's the best advice i've heard, and it worked for me.

Some people also say that if you lie absolutely still in bed for a very long time, you will start to dream without losing consciousness, so you can enter a lucid dream state that way, or so it's said.

Trying harder won't help. First of all there are no instructions for such a task. Second you may very well be having lucid dreams, but just not remembering them. Most of our dreams are nothing more than fleating thoughts with a wonder of where did that come from.

The more you relax and the less you try the more success you will have.pp

lucid dreaming is an extension of the 'hypno' alertness, this time extending our control into the dreaming state. there are those who appear to be able to do totally without sleep, althought this normally requires a high degree of spirtual awareness. however, with training, we can become aware first that we are dreaming and then can gain an element of lucid control. decisions can be made as to which direction we wish to manipulate the dream. this is often used in ensuring that a bad dream can be turned into a dream with a reasonable, or happy, ending.
having become aware that one is dreaming, a kind of 'a-ha' experience, the dream becomes somehow more real. dream images appear brighter and sharper, and more easily accessible, and one is able then to take control. it is important however to realize that it is difficult to dream lucidly all the time and although techniques such as meditation can be developed they are not always reliable, and having worked several times in succession are no longer of use. this is one of hte qualities of lucid dreaming in that it can manifest a quality of unexpectedness which can be disconcerting. some believe that parts of dreams can be lucid while other parts are not. thus, although one knows that one is dreaming, it also appears that the final decision remains with teh dreaming self rather than the conscious self.

You have created a psychological barrier against having lucid dreams. Mainly this happens when you have an extreme fear of what your lucid dreams will bring to the surface... Do you have traumatic experiences in your past that you don't like to think about?

It will take time, I remember it took me almost a year before my first lucid dream. There are many techniques, most of which are in Dr. Stephen LaBerge's "Exploring the world of Lucid Dreaming".

You have to remember your dreams first to be able to lucid dream, lucid dreaming is where you are aware that your dreaming and you remember it when your awake. You could be having lucid dreams right now, and you just don't remember them.

Before you go to be at night, tell yourself that you will have a dream, and remember it.

There are several steps you can take to increase your chances of dreaming lucidly. The first step, is to put a pen and paper on your nightstand. Have you ever woke up in the middle of the night from a dream, and had decent recall? Well, unless you tell someone about it quickly, before you fall back asleep, you're very likely to forget that dream. If you don't forget it entirely, you'll definitely lose the details. So, whenever you wake up from a dream, quickly write down everything you can remember about the dream. Go over your notes every night before you sleep. This allows you to spot potential clues next time you're dreaming, in order to clue you in that you are in fact dreaming. Dreaming takes place during the REM stages of sleep. Some people set their alarm clocks to go off in the middle of their REM cycle, so that they can wake up from the dream and write it down. As weird as it sounds, when I went through my stage of experimentation with lucid dreams, I read somewhere that repeating "I will remember my dreams." over and over right before I fell asleep would help me improve my dream recall. It definitely worked. Its been a while since I've had one, but I was able to have a few before I lost focus.
