Sometimes if you realise you're dreaming, you reflexively wake up, so adding some mental framework can protect you from that.

Some music can trigger (or ease) lucid dreaming, such as brain entrainment.

Yeah I heard about those types of techniques, but I still haven't mastered it yet.
Also now when I dream, it's usually a blur & I'm just in the moment. Can't remember last time I was lucid.
