<p>You basically stare at your own hands periodically and count them to see if there are five fingers. And stare at other people’s hands to see if they have five fingers as well.</p>
<p>So thanks to that method, I can now basically identify people by their hands 
It’s also disconcerting when you accidentally count wrong. Then you question reality within reality. Which is kinda the point I guess…</p>
<p>Same here actually. I realize that I’m dreaming quite often, but then I fall back to sleep before I get to do anything interesting.</p>
<p>leaf, lucid dreaming means that you are conscious within your own dream. You realize that you are dreaming and have full consciousness and total control (depending on your level of mastery and lucidity) over all aspects in your “dreamland”. In my experience, it feels exactly like the real world. I get cold, feel pain, etc. You can do anything you want, including but not limited to: robbing a bank, flying, solving a math problem, learning how to play a song, kiss Jessica Alba, etc.</p>
<p>My main goal of course, being the latter ;)</p>
