Lucid dreaming in a pill
What if you could take a pill that would allow you to have awareness whilst you were dreaming? This company has invented the world’s first lucid dreaming supplement for an incredible experience you’ll want to try.
It will happen to the majority of us during our lives, Tibetan monks use it on their path to enlightenment, and it can even lead to orgasm. So what is lucid dreaming? It can be described as having an awareness that you are dreaming, and usually occurs during the period of sleep called REM (Rapid Eye Movement). As a result, you are aware that everything you experience is merely a fabrication, that no real harm can come to you, and even that seemingly impossible may happen indeed happen.
Although lucid dreaming does not necessarily result in being in control of your dream, it does increase the extent to which actions can be done deliberately. From flying to meeting the deceased, anything is possible with a lucid, and they have often been cited as the catalyst for creative or spiritual enlightenment. It could be described as the ultimate escapism.
That’s where the people at Dream Leaf come in. As stated on their website, “Lucid dreaming has considerable potential for promoting personal growth and self-development, enhancing self-confidence, improving mental and physical health, facilitating creative problem solving and helping you to progress on the path to self-mastery.”
So how does it work? The supplement consists of two very matrix-like pills, one red and one blue. The blue pill is designed to ‘promote restful deep-sleep, cause REM rebound effect and elevate dream creativity’ through the use of the herbs Mugwort and 5-HTP, and is to be taken before bed. If you can rouse yourself from your sleep 4 hours later, you are meant to take the red pill, containing Huperzine-A, Alpha GPC and Choline. This is designed to ‘promote lucid dreams, improve memory/ dream recall and increase dream control’
If waking up at 3am to take the second pill doesn’t sound too appealing to you, there is an alternative method that involves taking the red pill and blue pill on two separate nights. Take the red pill 4 hours before bed and missing the blue pill completely on the first night, then, on the following night take the blue pill before going to bed for a lucid dreaming experience.
As it is made with all natural ingredients that can be bought at any health store, it is deemed safe by the company.
Although taking a pill to control your dreaming may seem like an easy option, there is something definitely unnatural about it. Add to this the fact that it costs $30.00, then when it is perfectly possible to learn to lucid dream using techniques of mnemonics, visualisations and dream recall for free.
