Lucid Dreaming | Changing Sleep Location to Influence Ones Subconscious (for Lucidity and Scene)

I think this topic may have been covered in some old threads. But I know the admins are not fond of necro threading. Plus I have a personal side trick that I've found to be very useful.

The core idea is pretty obvious. Your bed should probably just be your bed. For sleep and intimacy. That is what your brain is going to associate your bed with. Personally I have found it extraordinarily useless to go elsewhere when I want to lucid dream. So basically during WBTB I migrate to the den couch. This in and of itself signals to my subconscious (SC) "it's lucid dreaming time". As opposed to "regular sleep time". If you've never tried it or even thought about it. Give it a try. Like any technique don't expect instantaneous results. It takes time to retrain your SC.

The other weird little trick that works brilliantly for me, is leaving a small waking reality thing on the kitchen counter and leaving some night lights on. With the intention of finding myself lucid, checking for the night lights being off, and retrieving the item. Which historically has been a nicely made and custom magic wand. Because you know - why not. It's magical ;)

It's well known that electronic things are often disabled in a dream. And leaving out an item with the intent of retrieving it makes it more likely you will start to dream about being in the position you left off in, in waking reality. Then when you open your eyes and sanity check the lights, off means dreaming. And voila - you're lucid. Essentially I'll perceive I've awoken from a dream, but I'm really still dreaming. Which on another forum we dubbed "In Not Really Asleep Lucid Dream" or INRALD.

From there any number of scene change techniques can be used if your looking for variety. With a little G, this is pretty fool proof for me. But again it takes some time to train the SC.
