This, I feel, is the reason why I have such a lame MILD success rate...

How can one improve the effectiveness of their suggestions/affirmations to themselves?
This would have implications for ALL areas of Lucid dreaming.

How do you effectively use autosuggestion...do you combine it with visualisation? do you speak it? do you use internal dialogue? Im not afraid of high detail, step-by-step responses either!

Something I've always wondered on top of this is how well our unconscious mind comprehends language. "I will remember to check reality". Does my mind ACTUALLY know what that means, when in the un-lucid dream-state?

thanks
