Thread: does being a heavy sleeper affect your chances of LD

Not necessarily. As long as your getting enough sleep each night (at least 7 hours), you shouldn't have any problems. You still have your REM periods, and the fact you're a heavy sleeper shouldn't interfere in your dreams.

Well you will have more dreams because you sleep more but there is no extra chance they will be lucid

I'm a heavy sleeper and I've been having as many LDs as the next guy. I don't think there's a difference.

I do have trouble remembering my dreams unless I wake up and write them down right after my dream cycle, but that might just be me.
