One of my recent LD's was during a nap. I'm not really a napper either, I was just catching up on lost sleep from that morning. I didn't use any techniques cuz I wasn't expecting anything to happen. |

I have never been able to have a lucid dream via a nap. In fact I'm not too good at naps period. Don't get me wrong.. there are times when I'm sleepy and will take a nap but when I wake up I regret that I took one. I'm just not one of those people who takes a nap and wakes up feeling all refreshed! I wake up feeling like someone stomped me (and I really have to fight the desire to just keep sleeping). |

I'm the same Clairity and Pandragon. I have had a total of 4 naps in past 5 years of my life. I really dislike the feeling of tiredness during the day. Ive been thinking about taking a short sleep today actually to see if i can enter a Lucid Dream. Might try it after my Sunday Dinner |

Personally I love naps. I can mostly sleep anywhere at any time if the mood strikes. I have had a few LD's in afternoon naps along with false awakenings. I have not been lucid in a while so I can't really tell you if I had any technique for my nap times lol. One time I do remember that I drank a Pepsi right before I went to sleep and had a pretty cool LD. I think that my mind tends to be more active in the day time because there seem to be more outside interruptions... noises and light and stuff. |

I have most of my longest and most interesting lucids during day time naps. I've had a ton of "marathon lucids" where I just spend about 2 hours going from sp -> HI -> lucid -> back to sp -> HI -> lucid, over and over again. I have found that this way I can re-enter the same dream, go into a different dream...or try to struggle out of my body and maybe see what happens. It's a great time to experiment. In fact, I just woke up from a nap |

I wouldn't doubt that I've had over half of my LDs in a nap, once I had a what felt like 4 hour dream in 20 minutes, I woke up in class and was like what the hell. |

In Stephen LaBerge’s book Exploring the world of Lucid Dreaming he says the REM periods are longer and stronger in the morning hours after a lot of sleep. Maybe you could try earlier naps before lunchtime. |

Yeah, I nap most Saturday mornings, and that's when I get most of my LD's. When I have school off I nap too... |
