Thread: FaatFaat's Method

That sounds like it would work, although I highly doubt most people would need 90 days. I think a few days would suffice.

Have you tried it yet?

it may or may not work. you will be al ucid master after 90 days anyway

I've been doing similar thing for the past week and had amazing results. only difference is that I used repeating timer which buzzed really loud every 70-90 minutes. Good thing is that you dont have to turn it off every time, as it beeps 6 times.

Original intent was to break REM cycle and had WILD. Well, I never had WILD, but had dream induced lucid dreams for every night for like 6 days in a row...

For the past 2 nights I had trouble falling asleep and didnt really slept much, so thing didnt work...

Method has some drawbacks tho: thought that the timer will go off in 40 min or so prevented me from falling asleep first couple of nights... :/ But I had LDs anyway..

On a good side, I had exeptional level of awareness throughout the night, allowing me to enter LDs at will.
There were a lot of FAs as well

You know what, I'm going to try this tonight.. I have a snooze button that if you push a few times, it'll go up from 10 mins to like 90.

Would you feel more tired though, waking up all the time?

Well, sleeping like 10-11 hours and being a "coach (computer) potato" the next day is not very exhausting

and yes, you are kinda like in semisleep whole night... so its not like normal sleep

No, I haven't tried it yet. I'm not keen on the poor sleep but hopefully I'll be able to get into the rhythm of falling alseep, waking up, falling asleep...
It's good to know that it works though

This might work, but waking up every 90 mins every day is horrible for your body.. You might try it one or 2 times in a row, but I wouldnt recomend doing this for extended periods of time.. You will also feel really tired during the day.

i agree with hargarts. Doing this would probably be more harmful than helping. for the mind and body. I remember i did this once and that was one of the worst nights of my life. I felt like i got almost no sleep that night.

Wouldn't this ruin your sleep...Wouldn't you u feel like shit in the morning

Well what if you sleep for about 4 hours, and then do the "wake up every 90 mins" thing?

That depends .
My timer is *really loud* and beeps every 1 hr and 15 minutes during the night.

Funny thing is : I only hear it while awake. It does not wake me up in the middle of a dream. But it keeps me more alert and I'm having LDs *very often*

but there's a lot of factors involved :/

It maybe best i.e. healthy, to sleep for 4.5 hours first, but the point is to train yourself to become conscious whenever REM is occurring, and it maybe very hard to develop the 90 minute rhythm by sleeping 4.5 hours first The time spent not training would be 50-60% of sleep time. Big stinkas

Has anyone tried this yet? I'm really curious to hear some results...

I keep meaning to try it, but I always seem to have to be somewhere the next day, grr.

How about this for Phase 1? Sleep for 4.5 hours per night, and then do the 90 minutes thing. Then get up at the usual time and go about your day, but also keep the 90 minute timer on throughout the entire day.

This sounds difficult! Can you really train yourself to know the end of 90 minute periods without checking, and close to 100% of the time?

Wooooooow.. if you could train yourself to do that during waking hours, that would solve all LD problems. I don't imagine it being too difficult during summer, but once school/college/work starts, it could get pretty hard.
