For some reason, I had this mental block against the rubbing hands together for stabilization technique. I really don't know why. Maybe I thought I don't need to stabilize my dreams because of arrogance? I really don't know. I have been lucid dreaming for several years now, and never tried it. For some reason I thought it was silly, and I can't even explain why!

Anyway, recently I've been able to think more clearly due to a physical detoxification protocol I am doing for myself, and I think it's made me a little more open minded. Last night I had a very long lucid dream that don't remember too well because I didn't get a chance to scribble notes in the middle of the night.

The hands rubbing technique made my dream body feel more solid, and the dream stabilized. Every time the dream started to fade, or I felt myself losing lucidity, I would rub my hands together instead of doing an RC, because I already knew I was dreaming.

I wonder how many of us avoid trying certain techniques because of strange mental blocks. Maybe you have some negative idea about a technique that you have never tried. Now is a good time to ask yourself!
