Uh, I'm pretty sure there aren't any known real health benefits. Fun benefits, sure. Health, not so much. |

Hi, I am curently wrighting my senior paper. The research question is: 'What are the benifits of Lucid Dreaming on your health?; I need help finding more information. (Credible information) Dose any-one know where I might look for it? I need somware else as I have already used DreamViews. |

Lucid Goals
Short term
convince a dc they're in a dream, get high, go swimming
Long Term
have a deild, continue a relationship, stop time
Well see that's a problem. There is no evidence that lucid dreaming leads to more REM sleep. Dreaming occurs during REM, but doesn't appear to cause it. Similarly, there is no evidence to support dream healing. Dreaming can be used to help deal with fears and phobias, but is unlikely to rid you of them entirely, especially in the cases of deep-running traumatic experiences. I suppose it could help the occasional person who suffers from chronic nightmares, but compared to perhaps more conventional treatments (i.e. sleep aids), is the amount of time and effort that needs to be put into LD for the average person both plausible and worth it? |

Did you try reading (of course) Dr. Stephen (Steven?) Laberge's book? "Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming" goes into dream healing and such. |

I was always a dreamer, in childhood especially. People thought I was a little strange.-Charley pride
Dak I read it as "Obviously trolling is your only skill". Sorry. Just try to make posts that advance the conversation. |

Yes. This is what gave me my idea for my paper, the idea that LD can be used for medical resions is fasinating to me. But I need an on-line source..... |

I think the effects of lucid dreaming are cool. The issue is lucid dreaming doesn't have a lot of credible information surrounding it. I think you should post some of the requirements for this paper, eg. length, number of sources, what sources are allowed. |
|
My paper has to have 5 sources: 2internet, 1 book, 1 mewspaper or magazine article, 1 other. Wikipedia is not alowed... It needs to be 4 pages long and the bibliography needs to be in mla format. |

Well if you have time I would really switch topics. I just don't think it's possible to find the information you're looking for. |

More general LD topic might be better. |

It would be hard to dig up the needed sources on general LD alone, yet alone healing. Sorry, but I don't think you're going to be able to do your report on LD. It's a lot of fun, but...that's about it. Most of the other material is pure speculation (i.e. dream healing, shared dreaming, remote viewing, etc) and has not been verified by any scientific source. You could possibly extend your report to examine the physical and psychological effects of sleep and dreaming in the most general terms, for which there is ample research. |

Hmmm, alright... Thanks for the advice everyone. Maby a broder topic should be considered... |
