The Earth, Geomagetism and Dreams

Interesting article.

Looking for an explanation for recurring nightmares of leaving the house without your trousers on or losing your teeth? New research suggests you can blame the Earth's magnetic field, rather than a repressed childhood.
Darren Lipnicki, a psychologist formerly at the Center for Space Medicine in Berlin, Germany, found a correlation between the bizarreness of his dreams, recorded over eight years, and extremes in local geomagnetic activity.
Other studies have tied low geomagnetic activity to increases in the production of the melatonin, a potent hormone that helps set the body's circadian clock. So, based on anecdotal evidence that melatonin supplements used as a sleeping aid can cause off-kilter dreams, Lipnicki wondered whether local magnetic fields could induce the same effects.

Very interesting find, Exo, good work. This really makes me thing about the effect terrestrial and even non-terrestrial orbit could affect dreams and dreaming.

Hmmm... I wonder if there is a way to recreate those geomagnetic fields to experiment with?

Anyone have some suggestions on how to go about that or where i could start researching it? I haven't a clue, other than taping magnets to my head.

i have heard of devices that imitate the schumann resonance... try extensively googling schumann resonance n you'll come across one eventually.

i know nasa uses them to keep astronauts sane in space...

you can use binaural beats also at the schuman resonance to increase coherency between you and your environment...
hope that helps ya.

although sticking magnets to your head is a good experiment too :)

Actually I just remembered something someone built called the "God Helmet". A university professor made a helmet he claims can reproduce religious experiences .

Just google "God Helmet"
