Matt and Dr. Eti Ben Simon are back today to answer more of your excellent questions with their latest AMA installment - #8!
They begin by delving into the intriguing world of lucid dreaming, explaining how it enables dreamers to become aware and even control their dreams, and move on to discussing the scientific methods used to study lucid dreaming, such as using eye movements as a form of Morse code to communicate with researchers. Through studies involving MRI scans, scientists have validated that the brain areas associated with movements become active during lucid dreams.
Matt and Eti also provide valuable insights into sleep hygiene, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a regular sleep schedule and creating an optimal sleep environment. Additionally, our duo highlight unconventional tips such as avoiding naps if you struggle with sleep and taking a mental walk instead of counting sheep to help fall asleep.
