To throw more fuel on the fire, I found the BMJ article below. You really won't believe the reason "Tribal people don't like lying on the ground in recovery position while wearing no clothes..." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1119282/
Sleeping in a hammock is a good trick to make the transition to pillowless easier!
Bye,
Alex..., who loves to sleep with his hammock in the woods...!
Gravity also keeps us grounded.
Sometimes I have flying dreams that seem pretty real.It also works whether we believe in it or not . . .
My back and neck would love to lower pillow height, but my sinuses hate it. My sinuses tend to win, since they wake me in the middle of the night,whereas aches and pains in the back and neck don't register until morning.
Sometimes I have flying dreams that seem pretty real.
Only when a physicist wakes me up. Otherwise, the dream stays with me and I spend the day taking little hops once in a while to pinch myself and make sure it really was a dream.Yeah but don't those dreams end with a forced landing?
Yah, that's how it works for me too. I find it easy to dream lucidly if I'm sleep deprived and close my eyes at my desk for a few minutes. The problem with lucid flying dreams is that once I'm aware that I'm having a flying dream, I'm often reduced to just hovering close to the ground, often when I'm trying to show someone I know that I can fly. Frustrating.You ever done any lucid dreaming? It's been those times when I've become aware that I'm dreaming, during pleasant ones, that I go flying. It's hard to maintain the flying and lucidity, but it's fun as hell while it lasts.
Strangely, if I become lucid during nightmares, about the only thing I can do is try to wake myself up. Because even though I become aware that I'm having a nightmare, I can't simply wipe out the unpleasant theme of it.
I had same problems when I quit. I ended up stopping using the patch and using the gum instead because the dreams were actually super vivid nightmares. It's been 5 years since I quit.You want to inspire some really crazy dreams? Nicotine patches. Yes, I smoked once and used them to quit a few times before I finally quit for good -- 10 years this April, woot! But the dreams I had while wearing them were utterly bizarre and surreal. If people don't think that nicotine has effect on the thoughts of a person, they should just try wearing a nicotine patch to bed one night.
I've also heard people say that zinc and magnesium supplements before bed can make for some crazy dreams.

Right, cuz then you dream for two, right?I read this to my wife, and she quipped, "Try being pregnant," with a smirk.
