There is scientific evidence that dream time is broadly the same as real time.

Dreams can seem longer than they are because:-

  • We tend to skip the boring bits (i.e. appear directly at the destination rather than walking).
  • Our logic centres are asleep so we have a very flawed awareness of whats occuring (including our sense of time).
  • Dreams are skewed and disjointed and often make no sense.
  • Dream memories fade quickly. The more they fade the more you will lose any feeling you may have had of its duration.


Can you deliberately and literally extend dream time so you actually have say 6 hrs of experience in 30 minutes. I would say no.
