      Hey, I haven't really put enough time into this method to say if it works for me,
      but i was thinking...

      what if you found some other way to get that oxygen boost quickly, say using one of those flavored oxygen cans (like here: http://www.bigoxrox.com/)

      Do you think a "sip" or two would do the trick?
      I can see it being a little more efficient, as you could literally get back to sleep in seconds.

      Has anyone ever even tried that stuff?

      For some reason I keep coming back to this thread, maybe because it has potential to make me LD. But tonight I'm seriously going to successfully wake up during the night, do this and go back to bed. Not even kidding!

      Successfully waking up is always complicated for me... Either the alarm clock was set to PM instead of AM or I slept through it... I'm going to have a serious attempt at this technique tonight...

      HAHAHA: Otherwise I'd be just the person to try it. That's ridiculous, canned oxygen.. I'm living in the future!

      I already knew that the "high" feeling you get from hyperventilating occurs when the blood vessels constrict in your brain, which is a result of the low amounts of CO2 in the blood.
      So that article basically confirmed that the canned stuffed does the same thing.

      So now I want to know, would it still be bad for my body to go through with this method?
      This method entails hyperventilating, which is obviously more than just an "oxygen rush."
      Even if one were to stop at the "high feeling", that already means that the circulation is being cutoff, which is definitely a major no-no.

      So even if this method is the easiest one so far,
      I'd rather pass on it than have the most vivid lucid dream of all time and never actually wake-up.

      EDIT:
      In that article they were using 100% oxygen.
      The bigox stuff uses 89%, where the other 11% is composed of Nitrogen, Argon and trace amounts of other gases.
      I wonder if CO2 is included in those trace amounts, or if that makes a difference in the effects it has.
