A Somewhat Success

Wow, so my Novadreamer is STARTING to yield me results. The first 4 nights or so I used it, after about an hour I became very uncomfortable and took it off. Finally last night I stayed asleep for several hours without it bothering me (it's really a matter of perseverance until you become accustomed to wearing it). On checking it this morning I found that it had signaled me twice for dreamstate. The second time it caused a vivid but bizarre dream to turn scary. I don't remember when the flashes actually happened, and I don't recall anything in the dream that would have been the flashes or the sound, but I know when it happened because the dream suddenly changed.

I was in the bedroom where I grew up. In there I had a large closet. In the dream, I was just hanging out in there with my wife. When the novadreamer signalled me, the dream became a nightmare. I walked into my closet and found some windows looking out into the backyard - outside was a man just walking away from the window. He had been prowling and looking for a way in. I started banging on the window and opened it and yelled at him, at which point he made an excuse about trying to find something in the yard. Then he became angry and ran toward me. I got the window closed as he ripped out the screen and started trying to open the window. The rest of the dream, for the few seconds it went on, was me trying to keep him out while yelling for my wife to run. I woke up quickly, and my wife said I had been breathing deeply and groaning.

Now that might sound like a put-off, but for me it's a great sign. When I was doing most of my lucid dream work, back in college, I found that horror dreams were the easiest for me to become lucid in. I would watch Friday the 13th or Nightmare on Elm Street or Halloween movies all night, then go to sleep. When Jason would enter my dream, I would realize I was dreaming, become lucid, and then change the dream. Nightmares have a special, vivid quality to them, and as my life really doesn't have any horror aspects to it, nightmares cause me to question what's going on. Which is why I often become lucid. Of course, the last time I had a nightmare was probably several years ago, so to ME, having this one last night and knowing that the novadreamer was a part of it, means that I'm about to begin becoming lucid again. Woot!

Yeah, I wooted. So what?

Anyway, I'm also running Reed Byron's Millionaire Mind and Psychic Abilities CDs as frequently as I can. Millionaire Mind begins with relaxation into a deep trance. Then one voice works a hypnosis script, and then finally both ears get bombarded with various versions of that hypnosis script. The confusing effect is perfect for getting the messages in past the conscious mind and into the subconscious, and the actual suggestions, as I've mentioned about Reed's stuff in a previous post, go straight for the gold: mind creates reality, subconscious mind attracting wealth. The Psychic Abilities CD is even more interesting - it just immediately begins with two voices, one for each ear, both dimmed so that they are hard to make out consciously. These voices grow louder and fade, even moving three dimensionally from ear to ear and back. I can barely tell what's being said, but I'm beginning to feel the results.

As a side note, I am beginning creation of some audio programs for the main site. I have a few testers signed up, but still more than 20 slots remaining. Please feel free to grab a spot if you want. It's $25 and gives you free access to all completed audio programs I will ever produce, as well as giving you early access to help me test and perfect the works-in-progress. Also, I will be offering one for free on my site when it is complete. This one is one I have been using, and I will be getting my testers to help me perfect it. It is a Headache Reliever - I figure I should make this one free because, come on, headaches suck. It has worked on most of the stress, sinus, or eye-strain headaches I've had over the past couple of months. Now I would like to fine tune it to work even better. When it's done, you will see it as a free download on jonpeeoh.com. Until then, if you'd like to join the audio testers, go to http://www.jonpeeoh.com/TestersWanted.html.

If anyone else has some stories to relate on lucid dreaming or the like, please drop a comment on this blog post. I have this blog set up so that you don't have to be a member of blogger.com in order to post comments. Thanks!
