The Lucidity Institute offers a variety of tools for people set on taking charge of their subconscious life. The Institute's SuperNovaDreamer kit includes a copy of LaBerge's book, and the kit recommends reading a few chapters before getting started. The NovaDreamer includes a mask that tracks eye movement to recognize when you're in REM as well as to determine the amount of time you take to get to sleep. LaBerge advises novice lucid dreamers to be patient, adding it can take as long as four months or more to regularly have lucid dreams. LaBerge's research indicates that when a person does something in their dreams, the experience may be closer to reality than you'd think.

Researchers that asked lucid dreamers to move their eyes in a specific pattern, and then repeat the pattern 10 seconds later, found they did so in about the correct amount of time. Send it . Use this version. E-mail this to a friend. Wired Digital Inc., a Lycos Network site.
