Okay well, I just had my first lucid dream that I remember after starting practicing reality checks and whatnot.

I had tried Mr. LaBerge's method of reading text, looking away, and then checking to see if the text was the same.

I don't remember my dream progress with that, but the method I used to attain lucidity last night was that I noticed that very weird things were happening (people were morphing from pink elephants to octopuses and whatnot) so I declared it a dream.

Now, I had not practiced that method of reality check, so how is it I can get my mind to do what happened in the dream more often? That is, realize that when impossible things happen, realize it's a dream.

Any help?
