Thread: How can you be smarter in lucid dreams?

Hmm... Why does it seem people have such a tendency to figure such complex things out in their head when dreaming, like Einstein? How do people compose such genius stories or musical works in their head?

I wonder if there's really a way to mod your conscious brain to work in some sort of "hyper-drive"... or perhaps that's futile and the placebo is the only effect you would gain?

Hmm not sure, but I found this interesting: Dreams Make You Smarter, More Creative, Studies Suggest

Basically it says that dreaming enables our mind to play out events and create connections between ideas which we normally wouldn't be able to do while awake. Plus those geniuses have really high IQ's, so that helps too. Haha!
