@HeWhoShapes..keep in mind the more you sleep the less you accomplish in waking life. Not saying dreams and LD's etc are not valuable but there is definitely need for a healthy balance.

^^ I rarely sleep more than 8 hours and have tons of dreams and LDs within that period. One need not sleep beyond the norm to experience lucidity-filled nights. In fact the quality of my dreams and certainly my awareness starts to plummet after about 8 hours asleep.
Don't worry, we aren't getting more sleep, only better dreams (less nightmares and more adventures). :)Quote:

Haha, my name was BrandonBoss back then. Sorry for the late reply.

How good is your recall? (How many dreams, how long are they, how present are you in them
All sleep studies show that people that have a more consistent sleep pattern are more productive and accomplish more. LDing doesn't force you to have an excessive amount of sleep, just forces you to have a good amount of sleep. I prolly sleep average of 7 hours a night.
Can you explain micro-wbtb some more? I feel like that's a important part of your success
Here is a thread that I made about it.

I know this is way later than when you started the thread, but I have a question: Can you give an example of the most awe-inspiring/amazing/profound things you've seen, or heard/read in a lucid dream? Something that to this day you think 'Wow THAT was a cool thing when that happened.'
Most things that happen in lucid dreams are awesome! I have read the Bible and some Chronicles of Narnia and on the internet (multiple sites). I have fought lots of DBZ characters and some persistent dream characters. I have eaten and smelled foods that don't exist (like cotton candy muffins). I have transformed into a wolf. I have cut off arms and legs. I have become friends with DCs. I have studied. I have gone through puzzles. I have been awesome places that I love like Aincrad (SAO) and Hyrule (Zelda) (Even the music is there!). I have driven like a maniac. SO MANY AWESOME THINGS! I love it!
Oh, you know that your profile pic is actually a time that people use right?
Cool! Yeah I did figure that out but never got around to changing it or anything and then I was away from the forum for like ages haha.
Congrats on your achievements Sensei - it's great to see! I am going at my best speed to follow :alien: I think I need to purchase a watch that can give me bleeps as reminders so I can get super seriouse. Could you advise on type of watch...I am reading threw you threads and it's helping me get my Mild clearer - big thanks for sharing so much!
Oh yes on one of your last audio recordings you said you would do something with specific aim of helping folk like me right at the beginning ... Maybe more of a step by step build up of your advise over a few months or so?
