Are dreams the most unexplained human activity?

It’s a nightly trip into the subconscious mind.

I fell down a lucid dreaming rabbit hole the other night.

There are some techniques to follow so you can do it almost on demand.

Thats actually explainable

I believe dream state is a possible conduit to other…well, for lack of a better word, realms .

I fell down a lucid dreaming rabbit hole the other night.

I did lucid dreaming when I was 16-17 years old before I even knew what that term meant. I used to keep a notebook near my bed and write down every dream I had, who was in it, where, etc. It got to the point where I was obsessed with it and started going to bed at 7pm. I instantly knew I was in a dream and could do whatever I wanted. Fly, steal a car, fight someone, hook up with that girl, etc. The only downside was that I slept horribly.

For me, my dreams are often like a funhouse mirror version of my life, often a couple weeks behind. For example, if I go on a vacation, probably 10 days after I left for it, I will start having dreams about going on that vacation.

People in my life are often present in my dreams, but they tend to exhibit their most extreme personality traits. Someone whom I think is nice irl will be extraordinarily kind and loving. Someone who is cruel to me will appear as an angry psychopath. It’s like this weird distorted version of how my brain processes events.

What if our life is just another persons dream and when they wake up we die?

There are youtube videos that go into detail.


Good place to start is writing down everything you remember about your dream when you wake up. Its normal to not remember much more than one or two details at first. But if you continually push to remember, you will start remembering more and more.

The push to recall more and more details kind of conditions your brain to be more aware while you’re in a dream. Its the pre-req for being able to recognize that you’re in a dream. At which point you can start trying to exert control over aspects of the dream.

Dreams seem to be moments that are moments being placed in our memory hard drive
