>>60461226Yeah, it's not the technique that matters specifically, but developing a habit that reminds you to "check" if you're awake or dreaming.
There's another interesting method where multiple times a day, you attempt to push your finger through your other palm. Obviously this doesn't work in reality, but in a dream, anything is possible. If you successfully phase through your palm, you know you're dreaming. And even if unsuccessful, you've still brought your thoughts to "am I dreaming right now?"
