How are y’all controlling your dreams?
I don't sleep well enough to get lucid dreams anymore, but when I was younger I did. I never really had full control of the dreams though, mostly myself in the dream. You could fly around and whatnot. On the rare occasion that there were other people present in the dream when I became lucid I could end up having some interesting conversations with what is essentially parts of myself.
If you do this - e.g. pulling your finger - regularly during the day you will remember to do it in your dreams. If you wanna try lucid dreaming be aware of sleep paralysis.
Usually it's recognition of the dream that let's me manipulate the dream more actively.
Keep a dream journal, do reality checks often in waking life and you can maybe start realizing mid dream that you're dreaming. Usually it's at that point I'm able to take more control of the dream.
I say more because it's rare that I have full control of a dream. Like I might make myself fly in a dream, but might lose grasp of the setting that I'm actually flying in.
