Thread: Doing "anything"

If you want to do something in a dream, all you have to do is believe that you can. It's not always easy to "just" believe though.
To make it easier, you can ask the dream for more control, heighten your lucidity, or reinforce the Idea that you are dreaming.

Something that I've found to work very well for me is using "devices": a bracelet, a ring, some implant... etc. Just assume that when you put this thing on, it will give you more dream control. Don't question it, just put it on and know that it will work.
To be even more sure that the object will work, you can use one from a movie or show - I use "Sennin mode" from Naruto.

Hope this helps

Expanding on what Higat said, read this thread on archetypes: http://www.dreamviews.com/dream-cont...gant-tool.html

Basically, if you want to do supernatural stuff, it helps to frame it in a context that your brain already recognizes. You borrow from fiction or your imagination to make the dream control more plausible. When we say to "believe" something, it means to find a connection to an already consistent set of ideas in your brain. The magic ring is one variation. Imitating Superman to fly is another.
