this might not be new so sorry if its not, its just that ive never seen it before.

i have only had one deild and it was a long time ago, but i did it a different way.

i was in a dream (not lucid) and then i became lucid in the last maybe 20 seconds, because i saw the dream ending or fading away. so i knew i was waking up so i stayed still and did a dield.

so my question is instead of training yourself to see the back of your eye lids, or realise when you wake up, or wake up from an alarm, could you train yourself to realise when you are waking up?

imagine you were acctualy in a dream now, you dont know, but then you start waking up and everything is fading away and your becoming more aware of your real body. this is what i mean.
