I'm not sure it's possible to go from laying down to rest and go right into REM without going through the first 3 or 4 stages of sleep. |
|
I like the idea of conditioning triggers for the REM cycle (trigger program method). It sounds promising. With enough repetition, the trigger should go off in the REM cycle, and then BINGO-BANGO... Lucidity |

I have some lingering issues with REM periods as well as REM cylces and it's true nature. |

Your eyes don't just "go nuts" during REM periods. They actually follow where you happen to be looking in the dream. LaBerge and many other dream researchers have often used prearranged eye-signals in lab studies for subjects to signal to researchers that they had become lucid. It was widely accepted even before these experiments that your physical eye movements mimicked your dream eye movements, but these experiments pretty much serve as proof. |
|
Then it should be a Dream Views Lucid Dream Monthly Task to hold your eyes still while dreaming. |

You don't get it, do you? "Rapidly Moving your Eyes" does not simulate REM sleep. |

No I get it. |

4th Night of The Nameless Project Test: My dream awareness has increased further. I haven't realized I was dreaming yet, but my awareness level was very high. |

I have not been actively experimenting. But on those nights that I do remember to watch for any REMs, I notice they come during the Hypnogogic Stage. And on those nights my dreams are vivid and easy to remember. They are the kind of being Awake within the Dream but not aware its a Dream. No Lucid Dream as of yet. |

I had a new insight on the REM techniques here mentioned. |

This is not true either. You're eyes always follow where you're looking in the dream, regardless of whether or not you're lucid. |

Either I am not communicating my thoughts correctly or you just are persistant in not understanding them. |

My point is this: |

Okay, so if you acknowledge that your real eye movements mimick your dream eye movements, then how on earth did you come up with the idea that those eye twitching movements that you're experiencing while awake are the same as REM sleep? This is my entire point. Let's look at them separately: |

With all due respect I understand where you are coming from. |

Congratulations, but since it is entirely possible to have lucid dreams without practicing any techniques whatsoever, this doesn't exactly say much for the efficacy of this technique. Here's a quote from the article on the Dream Views main page, "Is It Learnable? / Learning Lucid Dreaming": |

Actually, what I meant by cultivating awareness to spill over into your dreams was/is exactly that that practice would in fact increase dream vividness. |
