Link found between meta-cognition and lucid dreaming

[Billy]

Julio Juliopolis, thanks.  The point of departing from the meta-cognition caught my attention.  I probably practice logic more-so, but I have experienced such recognition.  I am waking up with dreams into waking, thinking to remember, but wake up grasping at straws.  I only did lucid dreaming a few times, which i did suceed by the 'hand' technique.  I wonder 1st, if you have a tip so I keep retention whether lucid or not.  2nd, a tip to gain entrance into lucid dreaming.

I ask here that if you answer, it not be textbook stuff, but rather what your heart would say, and drawing from what is uniquely your own.
