    Reality check I developed is rolling eyes far up. If you close your eyelids and then roll the eyes, you can notice how it lifts them (the eyelids) up a little.

    While in REM and actually seeing dreams, you retain eye control, so by rolling your eyes you open them up and effectively wake up.

    This allows me to escape most nightmares, good stuff

        There is no way to “remember” it per-say, you could only somehow train it to be a subconscious habit, these transfer into dreams. Not sure how I did it with mine, I had developed it in childhood, but I do use this trick even in irl when I’m scared, as a reality check.
