      I just watched his videos the other day. They are terrible. As I said in the other thread, I keep waiting for him to throw in a free Shamwow. In general, I hate to criticize anything that encourages people to lucid dream. His advice, however, is terrible. I agree with you 100% Spaceexplorer.

      The only thing that I really used from Nick Newport is his lucid timers which mostly work for me. I will agree with you however, that he does seem to project himself as an "expert". Although, I follow some of his advice, I'd never buy the lucidology 102 package, and part of the reason why is how he's always trying to sell it off at the end of each of his videos.

      Lucid dreaming makes for a wonderful night's play.

      Lucidology102 transcripts are better than the vids for me

      Hi obama649;1608816, Jeff777 and WLLPEREGOY.

      (Thanking for this post: Jeff777 and WLLPEREGOY).

      Soon after I joined Saltcube back in 2008 and got Lucidilogy 101, Nick asked for my opinion of his Lucidilogy 101.

      I was angry and rude.

      I told him he was ugly and that I got so depressed and angry with the download that I told "it" to shut-up cos I couldn't keep up.

      Nick thanked and rewarded me for my feed back.

      Anyway

      Yesterday, W, when your post interrupted my year 12, philosophy and psychology homework time, I got out my Lucidilogy 102 printouts, cos, I wanted to see for myself if Nick really did not give acknowledgments to those who inspired his work.

      I haven't looked at the printouts in yonks.

      Now, I remember that I was having success, when I first got 102. I wasn't getting much out of the videos cos I still felt that I couldn't keep up. Just like I couldn't keep up with the 101 video's.

      But

      I would toddler down to Maccas for breaky. I would sit out in the courtyard and read a part of the printouts and follow the instructions.

      And they happened (!!!)

      You see, I get easily overwhelmed when a "teacher" is talking-at-me, (even at my evening-classes where I do year 12 psychology and philosophy). But if I can just have a print-out of the lesson and get away by myself, alone, ... well ... everything starts to make sense.

      Nick's 102 is in 9 parts (in 9 video downloads). Each video down-load has a full transcript, (pdf).

      Only yesterday, WLLPEREGOY, did the penny drop.

      I can now see why there is sooo many annoying and confusing illustrations and graphs flashing by in the vids. The vids are based on his print-outs, (not the other way round).

      I like the printouts, they work for me.

      The printouts read like a picture-book. There is a picture in the top half of each page and some written explanation in the second half of the page.

      And there is only one illustration per page.

      Infact ...

      I remember now ...

      After working with the printouts, I either posted on saltcube or private emailed Nick about how I liked his PDF layout cos I could slowdown, relax, and absorb just one page at a time.

      Then, close my eyes, and follow the instructions from just that one page.
