Thread: The "Inception" Technique - Tried and True

Just more thought streaming here, I wonder if the pressure point induces some form of a WILD. Explained:

Last night I tried to go to sleep with the bracelet on but it was just so ANNOYING I eventually took it off. Which led me to think that maybe this pressure point is obnoxious enough to keep the mind awake enough to notice that it's dreaming but yet gentle enough to let the rest of it fall asleep. Whenever this works for me, the first dream of the night is my lucid dream.

I'm going to try both tonight (falling asleep with it on and doing a WILD with it at about 3:00AM). I'm feelin' good, the last five nights have yielded the longest and most vivid dreams I've ever had (non-lucid though, I haven't tried anything new this last week). I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that I've eaten ridiculous amounts of peppermints over the past several days...

Cheers!

Good luck and tell us how you got on eicca. This is a very interesting concept!

I'm still thinking that the pressure point indicated is incorrect, for the simple reason that proper area is PC7 "the Spirit Gate", an area said to alleviate Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Palpitations and Insomnia.
(But, I maybe wrong on this, so keep trying).
Click on these YouTube links for PC7.. "Acupressure for Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Palpitations" and also "How To Relieve Insomnia With Acupressure".

There is another important pressure point to be aware of (my opinion), when it comes to meditation and aiming to achieve altered states of awareness. I believe that there is a good reason why many Gurus meditate placing the index fingers against the tops of the thumbs, since the pressure point on the tops of the thumbs are linked to the brain. This area can be used to stimulate the mysterious Pineal gland ("Third Eye") within the brain. Apart from what we already know about it’s function it has been discovered that the Pineal Gland, deep within the brain contains liquid and “cones and rods” just like the eye (hence “Third Eye”). This goes some way to explain why we see visions and imagery (HI) before sleep and during dreams.

I’ve tried by massaging the points for at least 2 minutes before bed for the past few nights and I also used a small round crystal for both thumb points. I achieved vivid dreams and semi-lucidity three times (not bad, since I’m suffering from insomnia caused by a flu-like virus making me wheeze and cough badly!).

Best wishes.

Thank you for posting this technique. I will try it tonight.
