Is it me or does that sound really tiring?
It's worth it for lucid dreaming though.
idk I kinda like the fact that I don't have to be concsious as I sleep, but maybe others might enjoy this.
Yeh totally agree for normal sleep. It's a nice feeling to be superman for a while though.
I never woke up tired because of lucid dreaming, but the effort to dream journal was a lot, and I eventually got tired of doing it as it eventually felt more like a chore. Once I stopped doing it the frequency of my lucid dreams dropped dramatically.
100% is for me and my friend who tried it. I know how to lucid dream but I haven't done it in 10 years because it is exhausting. I've never met anybody who actually knows how to lucid dream who hasn't stopped for the same reason. You never hear of anybody doing it constantly.
For those interested, I just summoned something to read in my dreams. Magically operating a newspaper wasn't enough to clue me in but not being able to read it was what made me become lucid. It took about 2 weeks of practice before I was getting more aware in my dreams.
