   Hi,   
      
         On the rare occasion when I have a lucid dream (I know this is a dream),   
   I try to take advantage to a small degree.  Note: I do not try to change the   
   scenery or anything in the dream.  What you see in a lucid dream   
   becomes very vivid ("real").   
      
         When I said,  "I like to take advantage",  this is what I really mean:   
   My last lucid dream (some time ago), I was outside near a brick building.   
   I wondered what it would be like to touch the bricks, which is what I did.   
   It felt like the "real thing".   
      
        Unfortunately, I am unable to stay in a lucid dream very long (I wake   
   up).   
      
        I have read some time ago, a method to trigger a lucid dream while you   
   are dreaming, is to do a "reality check".  You have to train yourself to do a   
   "reality check"  when ever a certain image or sound occurs in your dream.   
   I have not trained myself to do this yet.
