  I don't know how ^ lucid dreams, but I have accomplished it in the past by following a few steps routinely.
  First, as I was falling asleep, I told myself I would remember my dream.  I would repeat it a few times, like a mantra.
  Second, I diligently journaled my dreams every time I woke up.
  Third, I started telling myself as I was falling asleep that I would control my dreams.
  This was thirty years ago, so I may be forgetting some things, but I do recall that it worked.  And even for years after I stopped journaling and saying my mantra, I would still, lucid dream sometimes.

  It is unpopular based on age, I suppose. I hated to sleep when I was little but sleep is fucking amazing now. I'm waiting on my husband to stop watching his show right now so we can hit our bed. >
  
  All this talk about bed has me wondering why I’m not in mine now as I type. >
  
  I hear you bro. Good, deep REM sleep is the best. I take a 5mg melatonin and pass the fuck out for 10-12 hours. >

  I love dreaming. My dreams are always exciting and absolutely vivid, and I lucid dream a fair amount. But I hate going to bed. I like being awake, there's so much to experience and so little time. I'm always putting off sleep for something even when I shouldn't be. >
  
  how do you lucid dream?
