Caffeine, just a small amount an hour or so before bed. I recommend tea.
If you mean after the first sleep period when doing a WBTB, I could agree. But if you mean before your regular bedtime, I disagree because caffeine, even in low doses, significantly suppresses deep sleep, and it's never a good idea to mess with your deep sleep.Quote:

So if you feel mentally exhausted, just relax, take it easy and don't push yourself too far...

You wrote - """1. to combat? to prevent?"""
My question : you can combat with live creatures, you can prevent something from live creatures. i think i am wrong???
You wrote - """2. exhaustion have ruined some of my lucid dreams??"""
My question : so, he came and ruined your dreams? how did he looked like? How he ruined your dreams?
:roll: :?
how does that even make sense? we arent talking about live creatures, we are talking about mental exhaustion.Quote:

I don't know why your confused, especially by the term "prevent". Prevent feelings of mental exhaustion, prevent a catastrophe, prevent a fire, prevent a car accident. It just means to stop something from happening, it doesn't have to be the action of a living thing.
He? Who's he. The subject of a sentence doesn't have to be a person. Is English not your first language?Quote:
