What are some of your personal dreamsigns? Part III

[Splash (She/They)]

It might be a little challenging to practice the strange places as a DS/RC trigger, but I made a post a little while ago with some ideas about how to practice recognizing unfamiliar places as dream signs in reply to someone with a similar experience.

(practicing reality checks in response to being in an unfamiliar place) Sounds a little convoluted at first because the assumption might be that you’re going to have to visit unfamiliar places a lot in WL to build up this habit, but you don’t necessarily need to travel to do this.
Go with me here. You could find some random images of unfamiliar places, and build up the habit/mindfulness by viewing them and thinking “This is an unfamiliar place, I should do a reality check because this might be a dream” and do a mindful reality check or “When I see an unfamiliar place, I do a reality check.”

Might not be the easiest or most practice, but it might work?
Do you play video games? Because they can be quite immersive and often have you interacting with different/unfamiliar/new environments. If you can approach video games with that mindset and remember to do a RC while immersed in a video game envirionment it might work. It would probably be more effective that looking at photographs like I mentioned above and closer simulate the mindset you’d have to have in a dream to realize your unfamiliar envirionment is because you’re dreaming (because you’re usually immersed in dreams and kinda have to take a step above the plot/action to come to the realization that you’re dreaming, like you’d have to do if you were playing a video game and stopped to question your reality.)
