I try to WILD every once in a while, other than that I don't do anything specific, although I do notice I have more lucid dreams when I spend a lot of time in waking life reading and thinking about dreams. Like browsing this forum. In-dream, when I realize I'm dreaming it's often just a sudden realization, or something just doesn't make sense. I don't do reality checks, I just trust my gut instinct and go off flying or something xD Although I do like to look at the sky, more to see what it's like this time rather than to see if I'm dreaming. My approach to lucid dreaming is pretty laid back - when it happens it happens, I thoroughly enjoy ordinary dreams as well so being lucid for me is like recieving a gift every now and then.
