Lucid dreams can last as long as your REM periods last (fist period is maybe 10 minutes and then second one 30 minutes an so on). After 8 hours of sleep you might even have a hour long LD. |

That's interesting! That's why the later I go to bed, the more vivid my dreams are! Probably because of more serotonin and melatonin production, right? |

LD count: 25 and counting

i have in my time, stayed up all weekend, but those partying days are over for me nowlol. i want to lucid dream on a regular basis (every night if possible) and i dont think i would have the energy/stamina to do this on a regular basis. how often have you been lding crazyinsane. i have heard people can do this every night, is this relatively easy or will i be pulling my hair out for months to come? haha |
|
Some people can do it every night, but not many. I haven't tried every night yet, but I usually give a serious attempt about 3 times per week, and I usually get at least 1 successfully, which is very satisfying in itself. |
|
cool. i will try the methods you suggest. i definatley gonna do the spiderman thing ASAP. hehe. |
|
I had a lot of LDs when I was a kid but didn't know what they were. About 10 years later I found out about what LDing was by Googling around I think... then I joined here in Dec. 2006 and have been devoted to LDing ever since (on and off). |
|
The main reason i want to do this is because i find that if i can use my sleeping time for some form of expression then it must surely have a better impact on the rest of my life.( also i hate to waste time doing nothing, i like productivity, i am very restless). I meditate a litle but i am going to do more i think this will help loosen my mind up for lding. Also, i get little flashbacks of m dreams through the day, this is normal yes?? |
|
Quite normal indeed. And yes, striving to have lucid dreams is very productive because we spend about 25% of our short lives asleep—LDs are a perfect way of lessening that wasteful percentage. |
|
And what, pray tell, in rustboy's post is rubbish? Exactly where does he say that dreaming occurs ONLY during REM periods? No where. While it's true that there's no "proof" that dreams can occur only during REM (which obviously is not the case, what with hypnagogic dreamlettes and the such) there is plenty of proof that dreams DO occur every REM period. |

cool. I am having more vivid dreams and i can see signs that means 'this must b a dream' but i do not have awareness as it is happening, only when i wake up from them. |
|
I do really believe that lucid dreaming has had a positive impact on my life. I think the initial "base" effects were somewhat intangible in nature but they manifest themselves in very real, observable ways. |
|
been away for a couple of days now still no luck. doing a bit of reading before i nod off. I know there is no average time before you learn to ld and everyone is different but i have quite an imagination so i thought it would have happened by now. (just getting impatient i guess) |
