The Ultimate Lucid Dream Induction Formula
The building blocks of any smart lucid dream induction program involve a little bit of dedication and perseverance. There is no pill or powder that can guarantee you results when it comes to waking-up in your dreams. The most important practices for a solid program include:
We have put together the finest lucid dream supplement available today. This has been a mission of mine for a very long time. Lucid dreamers are able to experience a state of consciousness - well, we might as well call it a "place" - wherein the magical becomes very possible. Maybe in the future we will develop virtual reality technology which is as amazing or even surpasses lucid dreaming (or is a hybrid technology WITH lucid dreaming), but for now there is nothing that can match lucid dreaming in realistic portrayal of fully-immersive Universes where you can manipulates scenes, characters, and your own actions to such an extent. I sincerely wanted to share this gift of human capacity with people. BUT, for many people, maybe most people, it is extremely difficult to learn lucid dream induction. Life is complex. We are busy. Some people are just built in a way that makes lucidity easier for them to achieve. For me, I have always been fascinated by dreams and I have pretty good dream recall, but I am not naturally prone to lucid dreaming. My first one was a sort of gift from nature, but I had to work hard to achieve my lucid dreams over the years. The techniques discussed on this site are the best tools to employ for a well-rounded lucid dream program. If you have been using the techniques discussed here and elsewhere on the inter-webs, and still cannot complete the task of waking-up in your dreams, this may be the tool that completes your circle: Let me introduce the best and the brightest lucid dream nootropic supplement: Lucidimine.

Up until now, the best known supplement for helping with the achievement of lucid dreaming was Galantamine. In fact, there is an interesting product called GalantaMind by a company called Life Enhancement. GalantaMind combines galantamine with pantothenic acid (vitamin B-5) and a choline source (choline dihydrogen citrate). That is a fine product. It's expensive because galantamine is expensive - if you look you will notice there are only a few companies that use galantamine. Life Enhancement adds the B-5 because this vitamin is involved in the production of acetylcholine - the neurotransmitter which galantamine prevents your body from breaking down. The choline is added, again, because the intent of this type of supplement is to support your levels of acetyl-choline in the brain. I had very good success when using this product. Combined with dream-journaling and other techniques, I was able to attain a better-than 50% success rate on GalantaMind on nights I attempted to induce lucidity in my dreams. That is HUGE. Still, there were down-sides. Many people have an incredibly difficult time trying to fall back asleep or remain asleep when taking galantamine - it tends to make your thoughts race. Also, if I would take a large enough dose to effectively induce lucidity, I would always wake-up with a horrible headache. The choline is supposed to mitigate this side-effect, but, it didn't. The B-5 is not necessary, for one thing - we get plenty from out diet and the galantamine does not need any help in supporting high acetyl-choline levels in the brain. The resultant insomnia and headaches were enough to make me want to only use this product occasionally. And by that, I mean a few times per year.

In my many years of experimentation with lucid dreaming I've tried all of the better-known dream supplements:

OK, So What Makes Lucidimine So Special?
I believe in keeping things as simple as possible. First, you may have to try a thousand different combinations to figure out what could work in life, but then perfection comes down to whittling away the extraneous until you are left with only what actually worked, and nothing else. I've seen dream formulas with way too many ingredients. Not only are some supplements counter-active to each other, but if you are including what isn't needed that is taking space away from the valuable components. Lucidimine is simple, but this simplicity came from A LOT of work. Of course, we include Galantamine. There are 6mg of Galantamine in each capsule. This is enough to work for most people, but not too much if you are overly-sensitive. There are no B-Vitamins. They are not needed. But there is choline. Actually, we've included three types of choline. Choline bitartrate for starters. But then we also added Alpha-GPC and CDP-Choline. GPC and CDP choline are the most expensive cholines in the market and each form of choline in this formula supports your brain in different ways. If you already know about nootropic chemicals, having these together is sort of a big deal. And very rare. And up till now, nobody has a product with Galantamine, AND Alpha-GPC, AND CDP-Choline. One more ingredient. We needed something that took the bite out of the Galantamine without suppressing dream recall. Actually, I had a few goals in mind for Lucidimine and they seemed to be at odds with one another. I wanted a supplement that would be better than anything else for lucid dream induction but could ALSO be used as an incredible daytime nootropic. I wanted the REM support of Galantamine without the sleep disruption and headaches. The final ingredient had to be both calming and memory-enhancing. Hm? What to use? I thought about small amounts of melatonin but that interferes with dream recall, at least in any amount that would buffer the Galantamine's insomnia effect. And then I tried a new combination. Why is tea both relaxing and stimulating at the same time? Yes - l-Theanine. The amino acid responsible for the huge difference between tea leaves and coffee beans. Don't get me wrong, I love coffee. But sometimes you don't want the jitters that high levels of caffeine can give you - if it isn't accompanied by Theanine. So that was it. We ran trials and it worked. Very well. |
- On nights in which you wish to attempt lucid dream induction, manipulate your REM-cycles with the use of an alarm. In addition to the practice of dream-journaling, instigating sleep disruptions by using an alarm can heighten the vividness and density of your dream episodes. It is best if the alarm is short, and just attention-getting enough to wake you up briefly and does not require for you to shut it off (the alarm should go off on its own after a second or two) - unless you are sitting-up to record a recent dream you would be best-off to not move a muscle, not even your eyelids. This is the most direct method for entering into a Waking-Induced-Lucid-Dream (WILD). Disrupting sleep in this way, especially near the last couple of hours of sleep, will urge your sleep-regulating systems to preserve more REM-sleep and also to increase the activation of dreaming because the disruptions are perceived as a need to be more alert/vigilant (in our ancient environment, waking-up like this likely meant a threat was present in the environment...to understand the importance of this, read about a main reason why we dream).
