Thread: Idea for new menthod??

I just read about the CAT technique and I understand how it works, but I thought up a different version of CAT and would love if some LDers out their would try it and post their results. Obviously I will be trying it too.

The Method

So the CAT technique involves tricking your brain to become more aware during rem periods over days, but what about tricking it over an hour or two. What I have in mind is setting alarm to ring 4-7 hours after falling asleep. Performing a WBTB (with frequent reality checks) then setting an alarm to ring every 10 minutes for the next 40-60 minutes. Then after that cycle you set and alarm for 5 minutes then 10 then 5 etc. (you also need an alarm that you don't have to manually shut off) Wouldn't this have the same principle? Any thoughts or ideas to tinker with this method would be appreciated very much! Also if this method does work can anyone think of a name for it? Also, has anyone already thought of this technique?
