I actually believe there is a benefit, at least there was in my life. I was trying different herbal supplements that were supposed to improve your sleep quality, and hit on a mixture of ashwaganda, green tea extract, and magnesium that let me lucid dream almost nightly.
I found that, because my dreams were so much fun, I looked forward to sleep, slept longer, and had a better overall quality of sleep. I'm not sure how much was the "behind the scenes" work of the supplements, versus the fact that I was genuinely having a good time in my dreams.
Either way, I was better rested when that was happening, and essentially living two lives. It was super cool.
- hanoz 4y agoSounds great. So why is all this in past tense?
- jimlikeslimes 4y agoI'd imagine doing this for a short while is fun but long term it's probably best to let your body handle things.
- Loughla 4y agoLike all things, moderation is key. I am very cautious with anything for sleep now, other than natural methods such as controlling activity, caffeine, and light before bed. It is too easy to become dependent on anything when it comes to sleep patterns. The problem with being dependent on anything for sleep is what happens when you run out.
