The numbers mentioned by Wired are shown graphically in Figure 3 of the Nature paper. Might be worth a try to email a question or two to the principal author. Her email address is provided in...

So it may have been at least partially the placebo effect, in your case. Must be nice to be a natural lucid dreamer!

That's a good point. I sometimes have difficulty deciding whether a particular dream I've had was lucid or not. The question is whether that brief surge of awareness could transform a regular...

Great points you've made here, StephL. I didn't realize the lucidity scores were based on a 5-point scale. So it sounds like many of the dreams influenced by the 25 & 40 Hz stimulation may not have...

Sleeping in the forest
by Zthread on 04-09-2019 at 02:24 AM
April 5, 2019
I'm in a pine forest near a cabin, getting ready to go to sleep in a sleeping bag on the ground. It's a beautiful warm night, with lots of stars in the sky. I'm looking forward to sleeping outdoors among the pine trees. My wife comes out of the cabin to see how I'm doing. I tell her I'm fine. But then, right before our eyes, a vertical crack opens up in the trunk of the pine tree closest to me, creating a crackling sound. It's maybe a foot long, 1-inch wide, and 2-inches deep. I point it out to my wife, but she's not really interested and goes back inside. The crack then gets a lot bigger, with more crackling sounds. It's now maybe 3 feet long, 3-inches wide, and 6 inches deep. Then, after a few more seconds, the entire tree falls over, with a loud crash. It fell away from me, but if it had hit me I wouldn't have survived. I'm now wondering if it might not be such a great idea to fall asleep out there with all these trees around me.
Comments: Didn't take any supplements, but my wife came home from a trip and woke me up almost 2 hours after I'd fallen asleep. Interesting that it was a dream about wanting to go to sleep, but in an environment where sleeping was a dangerous thing to do. Maybe my SC was trying to make me think of sleeping so I'd realize I was dreaming and become lucid. Too bad it didn't work. Would have been fun to be lucid in a forest on a warm summer night.
