Thread: LD's and the Brain

Very cool idea!

LDs per month average: about 90
Left brain dominace: 10
Right breain dominance: 12

Lucid dreams per month average: 2 ( natural and random, just found this site yesterday )

left brain dominance:9
Right brain dominance:6

thanks for this! I hope you can tell me how to strenthen what side of the brain I need lol.. I seem to be missing half of it today.. anyways

Lucid dreams a month average: 2 lol

Left Brain Dominance: 11
Right Brain Dominance:9

Just a quick observation, but right minded people seem to be better at lucid dreams. Maybe because that's the most creative part of the brain

also, my dream journal:
http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...ad.php?t=68560
maybe you can tell me how I'm doing or give me some hints

dang it! no wonder my sister dosent have to try as hard as me!!! she hates lucid dreaming because I talk about it all the time, but 4 nights ago, she tried to WILD, like I told her, and it worked in like 10 mins for her because it was like midnight, and she has unexpected DILDS all the time, and she is left handed...

I personally thought that was a really stupid test... it was much too subjective, unless the purpose was that it is based on your conceptions of yourself. If that's the case it was excellent. I mean, how many people are going to say that they are musically inclined? Just watch American Idol and you'll get a good idea. Lots of people like to believe that they are good judges of character, or that they wait to hear both sides to a story, but I think for the most part that's not the case... Is there a more accurate one?

ANYWAY, here's my info:

LDs/month: ~8 (about +/- 2)
Left: 11
Right: 7

I took a couple of other tests and here are my results:

Spoiler for results:

Spoiler for http://www.web-us.com/BRAIN/braindominance.htm:

You responded as a right brained person to 14 questions, and you responded as a left brained person to 4questions. According to the Hemispheric Dominance test, you use your right brain the most. The summary briefly describes your dominance type. Remember, this only represents half of the picture. After you read the description, click on the link at the bottom of the page to find out how to use this information to improve your study strategies. Do not forget to print your results, if your instructor has requested you to do so.

Some of the traits associated with the right side of the brain are listed in the table. Not all of the traits will apply to you. Remember, we use both side of our brain, but your right sides gets the most exercise.

Type of Cognitive Processing


Brief Description
Holisitc Processing information from whole to part; sees the big picture first, not the details.
Random Processing information with out priority, jumps form one task to another.
Concrete Processes things that can be seen , or touched - real objects.
Intuitive Processes information based on whether or not it feels right know answer but not sure how it was derived.
Nonverbal Processes thought as illustrations.
Fantasy-Oriented Processes information with creativity; less focus on rules and regulations

- Right:Left - 14:4 questions

Spoiler for http://www.ipn.at/ipn.asp?BHX:

Left to Right dominant, 11:10

Left:Right - 11:10

Spoiler for http://frank.mtsu.edu/~studskl/hd/learn.html:

You responded as a right brained person to 10 questions, and you responded as a left brained person to 9 questions. You seemed to be comfortable using strategies for both sides for the brain. Your preference may be situational and apparent mainly when stress in a factor.

Right:Left - 10:9 - I agree with this one the most, particularly the "Your preference may be situational and apparent mainly when stress in a factor."

From reading http://frank.mtsu.edu/~studskl/hd/learn.html I would agree mostly that I am right-brain oriented, but that when it comes to logic or reality based... I use intuition and I understand rules and follow them. I definitely draw everything, have those little mental videos, like to work from the big picture down to the small details, I usually kick ass at spelling, I tend to point, can't flat out memorize things, etc.

You should also ask if people are naturals or not. Because getting 50 LDs a month naturally or from hard work and having learned to WILD probably makes a difference, or at least is something you ought to consider.

ive only been lucid dreaming for a month so i dont know how this figure will be after a while longer.

lucid dreams in a month: 3

left brain dominance: 6
right brain dominance: 11

LDs per month: more than 30 in the last month (i.e. since I've started trying and actually having results. I expect that count to be a bit higher in coming months.) Before trying to consciously LD, I'd estimate I had one every 2-3 months maybe (but that could be horribly off. It's just the sense I get).
Left brain dominance: 8
Right brain dominance: 8

EDIT: After reading up on brain dominance a bit, that 8/8 balance seems about right for me.

id love to know how to strengthen my left side of my brain because my left brain dominance is rubbish!!!

Lucid dreams per month average: normally 4 via WBTB/WILD

Left Brain Dominance: 11

Right Brain Dominance: 9

.

Lucid dreams a month average: 1-2
Left Brain Dominance: 6
Right Brain Dominance: 10

Lucid dreams a month average: 1
Left Brain Dominance: 13
Right Brain Dominance: 10

Lucid Dreams a month - 0 to 1
Left Brain Dominance - 11
Right Brain Dominance - 6

Left: 6
Right: 9
Lucids Per Month: 48 +/-

Lucid dreams/month: 7 +/- 2
Left brain: 5
Right brain: 11

Average LDs per month - lately 0-1

Left brain dominance - 7
Right brain dominance - 9

Consider I has been practicing for 13-14 years, oh and just found that waking then going back to sleep makes that another lucid, so thats why the amount changed a lot (how could I not notice that before?)
Other note, the increased amount is fault of baby crying and waking me so its easy to DEILD <.<

Lucid dreams a month average: 110

Left Brain Dominance: 6
Right Brain Dominance: 8

ld per month about 10
Left Brain Dominance: 8
Right Brain Dominance: 9

I remember doing this thing along time ago and being the furthest from the center in my class. Aperintly I've changed since then?

LDs per month average : 20
Left Brain Dominance: 10
Right Brain Dominance: 10

Left 9
Right 10

Then I took another web based dominance test and obtained

Left 11
Right 7

I suspect this means I'm pretty centered or slightly left.

haha i got the same scores!

I haven't had a single lucid dream since i had that OBE... :-\

I Don't know how accurate that test is however.

number of LDs per month now: 2-3
number of LDs per month before I got out of lucid dreaming: 10-20

left: 8
right: 14

I was into LDing from around 1999-2004. I got out of it from around 2004-2008. I just started back up about a week ago.
