I have to know that I'm dreaming to know that I should look in a mirror though.
Or am I supposed to just constantly look into mirrors throughout the day so I knew that when I don't look into a mirror, it's a dream?
that is indeed the idea behind reality checks in lucid dreaming practice
i habitually pinch my nose and try to breathe through it, and a couple times that helped me notice that i'm actually dreaming
That's similar to how I evacuate nightmares.
If something weird and/or unpleasant is happening, I concentrate on an intention to wake up, to move back to my bedroom and open my eyes. If that's a dream, I do indeed wake up.
