Lucid Hook

Use the water's surface as a reality check: if reflections wobble or repeat, tell yourself 'I am dreaming' and explore beneath the surface.

2–3 times

Note patterns: what emotion returns? Draw a quick sketch of the reservoir each morning.

Start a focused practice: nightly 5-minute intention before sleep to ask the reservoir what it holds, and keep a running list of answers.
