    Have you ever had a lucid dream?

      Yeah, I'm an experienced lucid dreamer and was obsessed with them. I got bored after many years. It eventually started to ruin my sleep because I would realize I'm in a dream every few nights and 70% of the time I will wake after lucid dream is over. It is really an amazing weird experience. In the lucid dream, I would often hear myself snore if I concentrate hard enough, so I would be able to count flashes, but with some struggle. I never felt normal inside lucid dream, it mostly felt like I have extremely short memory span and 90% conscious, I would forget what I was doing few seconds ago. It's hard to explain. I could do some math problems in it if I tried. But I mostly would just fly around like a superman.

      Several, in a cluster about three years ago. Before that, only once as a teen... but on that occasion, unfortunately, the realisation woke me up. Those few enduring lucid dreams easily make it into my top ten life experiences. Flying can't be beat.

      I used to have few. One of which is quite funny & interesting in context of a video.
      When I was in this dream, I decided to crush a traction pole. Like in some superhero movies (it was relevant in the context I'm omitting). I found traction pole, and tear it from the ground.
      When I looked above to see all of the special effects - sparkles etc, I was super disappointed by the quality of simulation. It wasn't convincing at all.
      Shortly after dream ended.

    I just lucid dreamed last night. I have a classic car in real life. In the dream I had parked it in front of a drug store, gone in for an hour, and when I came back it had been stripped to the bone. I went into the drug store and grabbed the cashier, Jake, and shook him, asking why he didn't do anything. He ended up giving me the picture IDs of the two guys who stripped the car. Then I had to walk home through the middle of town. It was incredibly real, had to go check if my car was still there this morning.

    This is pretty cool. I tried to get into lucid dreaming a while ago, studying from the subreddit, and managed a few short ones. It takes training and persistence though, which I wasn't able to maintain. Keeping a dream journal was probably the best advice, but I really loved reading about how different people explore their own selves/dreams differently. There's a full spectrum from scientific to mystical to horny (those are the three levels of perception, right?), and they all had interesting insights.
    Dreams are a fascinating phenomenon, and I wouldn't want to be lucid for all of them; I've read it's physically and mentally exhausting, like you aren't getting real sleep. There's no doubt in my mind that lucid or not, they're more than just a digestion of our thoughts.

    I'm super interested in how Neuralink etc will change all this. Imagine being able to browse the internet, and have video calls with people, from within a lucid dream. Your dream space could be your new work environment. It could essentially be like going into a VR game and meeting with people, but perceiving everything as if it was reality. Imagine tools like AutoCAD, or doing graphics work, or game design, from within a lucid dream. Your work day could get a lot more interesting.

      But video calls within a dream would have to be completely simulated video, it feels weird knowing it's a fake video of someone else you're taking to in a dream the same way they can't get a video of you while in a dream.

      @@HeyShaded I'm sure that if we as a species can figure out how to create cat filters, we can figure out how to simulate expressions on someone contacting you from within a dream :-) would be really great if the dreamer could actually control the imagery of what gets sent over the video call though. Experienced lucid dreamers can create objects on demand, and it would be a cool way to show off some new ideas for hat designs or something.

    Inception was awesome! I just learned a few months ago that Cobb was the real subject, and Saito was hired to help create inception in Cobb. It worked, Cobb was able let go of Mal, and go back home to his family. (There never was a government agency coming after him or keeping him from the US) 😳
    The movie makes so much more sense now, it’s amazing.

      There’s still a debate about whether this is true or not, but the more I think about it the more sense it makes to me..
      -We never actually saw proof that a US agency was chasing Cobb.
      -Cobb being chased in Mombasa could have been men hired by Saito, hence why Saito just happened to be there to save him. Also would explain why Eames wasn’t nervous at the bar. Also, a US agency would never have been pursuing him like this.
      -We know Cobb is in denial and even his reality has become dream-like, after spending so many years so deep in dreams.
      -Michael Cain tells Cobb to ‘Come home to reality, to your children.’ He wouldn’t have said that if he knew it was impossible. And it was only after this he introduced Cobb to Ariadne. So Ariadne was in on the team to create inception in Cobb the whole time and played a critical role.
      -The top was never Cobb’s token, it was Mal’s. Cobb kept it around because he couldn’t let go of her. Cobb’s totem was his wedding ring. (You can see him always wearing it in a dream, and never in reality.) So the ending where he spins the top and walks away when his children call - was kind of beautiful. Cobb spun it as a tribute to the old times with his wife, but as soon as his children called there was no competition anymore - he went to them. The Inception worked.

    Came for the longevity content, staying for the dream videos (haha jk I love both). As someone who frequently remembers dreams (record of 4 in one night!), I think I've found my new challenge! Although, I'll need some practice at lucid dreaming before getting to the basic arithmetic part. Awesome video Eleanor!

    Thx for the heads up on this paper, it’s right up my alley.
    The best method I found for training yourself to lucid dream:
    Set your watch to go off during the day every hour or however long you can handle the annoyance. When it goes off, look at the time, move the watch face away so you can’t see the time, and then check the time again.
    If you’re dreaming, the time will be wildly different when you check the time again.
    Creating the check watch habit will make it likely for the habit to intrude into your dream, and viola.
    It’ll probably freak you out and it’s difficult to not then wake up.
    Another thing that probably helps is to sleep normally for a few hours to get your deep sleep (NREM), but then stay awake for 2 or 3 hours. Go back to sleep and that should make the REM pressure quite high and give you a long REM period as well as help you stay asleep after realizing you are dreaming.

    Well, i've had my first Lucid Dream when i was 11 and here is what worked for me when i first started out: You need to stay calm and faithful to the original scenario of the dream that you've found yourself aware in, and make the desired changes gradually that is according to your logic possible, (Like if you wanna add someone, make them come there by seeing them walk or go through a door or if you wanna be somewhere, imagine yourself going there or slowly imagine yourself making the place that you're currently in similar to your desired place like building a home. But never make instant changes like spawning people all of a sudden or teleporting to places that is very irrelevant to the original dream.) Because whenever i tried to make huge instant changes that my brain wouldn't believe to be possible in real life, i get literally kicked out of the dream and wake up lol.
    I'm not an experienced lucid dreamer nor do i try to do it, it just happens by itself once a few weeks or months and i just enjoy it as a natural given because if you frequently lucid dream and do what you crave to do in real life all the time, you will be less interested in real life and crave to go back to sleep everyday and it kinda becomes similar to those additions that affect the dopamin pathways.
    Hope that helps.

      I get opposite - I can't go out of Lucid Dreaming, even if I make something super irrational. Furthermore, in the places that I don't know there're two things:
      - random black noise.
      - things that I assume should be here.
      The funny things is that, when I had entered the black noise, I've got respawned in my bed.

    I'll sometimes realise what I'm experiencing is not reality, and will tell myself its a dream. Sometimes, I'll say it to myself but its not convincing, so I get dragged on doing whatever is happening in the dream, and sometimes it will wake me up as soon as I notice I'm dreaming. Once in a blue moon though I'll know, and will just start to try things, like turning it into a nightmare (I know its a dream so it doesn't matter), or doing something crazy. Sometimes, I'll have a lot of control over my surroundings but then forget I know what I'm doing and it kinda reverts into a "dream" again, but one you kinda know you know is real but not any-more.
    I love dreaming. It doesn't matter what its about, or what happens...there's not many places you can experience something like a dream with almost no long-lasting psychological (at least for me) or physiological issues. Even a really bad nightmare is something I treasure, its an extremely unique and safe experience.
    I'll take 200mg of Magnesium Glycinate an hour before bed to help remember my dreams and make them more intense. I know it can give some people intense dreams but if you know what you're getting into then like I said, its a pretty safe way to have unique experiences.
    Edit: I love the channel btw!

      When I enter lucid dream, I would get electric shock feeling in my spine and it would always become dark and teleport me into my room lol. I would usually start lucid dream by remembering day of the week, year, where I'm sleeping in real life and quick simple math problem like 5 + 7. It always helped me to become more conscious.

      I remember once when I was younger and dreaming, I was having a picnic with my family at school with loads of other families. I looked around, and knew it was unbelievable enough that it must of been a dream and then imagined something in my pocket and it was there (think it was something to do with Pogs).
