Hi yall! Its been a long time since Ive been here. But ive been having many LDs lately and have ran into some problems.\
When Im lucid, I have trouble changing things around me. I know Im dreaming, but I cant put a mona lisa on a canvas for example.
Are there techniques to do such things? Like do I close my eyes in the dream and just imagine it? Or just tell it to turn into something? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
If I want to do something in a LD I usually try to “see” what it would look like. Sort of like imagining what you see but without doing the imagination in your head. Hope you understand what I mean. It doesn’t always work, but one thing that makes in easier is to move your hand over the thing you are trying to change and imagine what it would look like while moving your hand over it.
I actually practice “seeing” things like this IRL from time to time and it makes it much easier to do it in LDs if you do this since the brain is more used to it then.
This is my own thing, not sure how well it works for other people but good luck trying it out 
Thanks for the technique! Ill have to try this out tonight! In what way do you move your hand though? Like jedi mind style? waves hand You WILL tell me where the antidote is. lol, maybe I should try to be Luke tonight.
Yeah, pretty much like the jedi do 
Just so I can’t see the object or atleast most of the object for a moment. That’s usually enough for me, but when you get good you can probably just make things happen while looking at them. In the beginning your brains just isn’t used to things changing when you look at them and wish for them to change into something else so it resists.
/me wave his hand and say “you never saw this topic, now go to sleep”
I’ve also been having trouble getting my dreams to do what I want them to, but these tips were really good! Definitely gonna try it.
