Hm, I've heard, from different sources, that physical activity is good for dreaming. |

I read, i think in EWoLD, that exercise increases delta sleep and mental tasks increase REM sleep. I have intense sports practices every day, could this be inhibiting my interest in lucid dreaming? |

Do you still remember vivid dreams on a nightly basis? Maybe not nightly, but occasionally? |

My recall is terrible, not consistent at all, and ive been trying for 2 years almost |

In EWLD, Laberge mentions that the increase in Delta waves, or slow wave sleep (SWS), is likely due to increased heat--a byproduct of exercise. |

i completely agree with this. having had my bike out of action, ive not had as much exercise lately and my lucidity is down as a result. although excessive exercose may have the opposite effect. especially for wilds it is very helpful to have a tired body and a sharp mind. |

Just a personal experience to add to discussion, I do dancing 3-4 evenings a week(not social stuff, professionally, 2-3 hours of very intense activity) and I noticed I don't recall any dreams those nights(according to Zeo on those nights I get much less REM sleep). So I think light exercise can be beneficial for LD but demanding workouts probably require more deep sleep to compensate. |
