I was(I guess still am) really into lucid dreaming in college. You can kinda teach yourself how to do this but it’s a lot of specific things you have to do … Like every time you walk thru a doorway, ask yourself, how did I get here? Like what was the pathway, reason and such. If you don’t recall, you’re likely dreaming.

There’s also a tea you can make that helps… But it tastes pretty bad…but quite effective. I can’t remember the scientific name but the ‘Mexican leaves of god’ should point you in the right direction…calea something with a z… I think. and blend it with normal tea. It can be smoked…but I found the tea way more impactful.

We always dream, but usually we cant remember the dreams. It helps to keep a dream journal, ie every morning directly after waking up, write down as much as you remember from last nights dreams (or instead talk about it with someone). Over time you will remember more and more details.
