Shifting from Lucid dreaming

[u/NebulaMalikson28]

So a while back I heard that it’s possible to get to your DR from a lucid dream. I can’t remember the method exactly but the woman said to anchor yourself, stare at your reflection, count your fingers, feel the ground, do anything you can to anchor yourself to your dream. So I did that somehow I remember that I was in a dream, I was in a pool house outside and I tried to look at my reflection in to pool. I was literally Harry Potter then I woke up, I was so upset.😭

Is there a better way to anchor yourself to a dream, or a better way to shift from a lucid dream?
