I got into lucid dreaming and one of the peaks was when I could finally taste dream food.
I was at a dream New Year’s party and there were cupcakes and I usually try to eat dream food but it messes with my dream and I usually wake up.
But that time I ate a cupcake and it was like the best cupcake I ever had. I was ecstatic
It was pretty cool.
There are any number of methods, but the goal is being aware that you are in a dream.
The methods I found most effective were dream journaling and reality testing.
Everyday, you record whatever concrete information you definitely remember happening in the dream, even if it’s just a red t-shirt someone was wearing for example.
Write it down somewhere, journal or notepad.
Very rapidly, you’ll begin remembering more and more of your dreams.
That helps you recognize a dream state.
The other thing I did is reality testing, when you make sure you’re awake.
So I will basically wave a hand or a couple fingers every now and then during the day and try to move something with my mind.
And then one day I was in my garage and as a reality rest, I telekinetically lifted the hood on my car.
And when the hood lifted, I realized “oh, I’m dreaming.”
Once you’re aware, the most important thing is to stay calm and not make drastic changes. Just tried to influence what you can within the context of the dream, and then you get better and better at it.
what if I’m already always aware that I’m in a dream in my dreams?
like my thoughts are almost always based on that (like, “oh no i broke my phone, but it’s ok since it’s just a dream”)
Keeping a dream journal messed my head up so bad. I couldn’t distinguish if my memories were from a realistic dream or if it happened in real life. So I dropped it all together.
One thing you didn’t mention is setting an alarm at where your sleep is light. Getting up for a glass of water and back to sleep. Your brain is in an optimal “half-awake” state for lucid dreams.
Beans and bread exclusively sounds like a promising Malnutrition speed run any% attempt.
But do not include all the nutrients your body needs for a long and healthy life.
There sure are worse options than beans though.
They don’t? Are you sure?
I feel like beans are one of the few foods that do include all the nutrients you need.
It’s like them and quinoa.
Aren’t beans like really healthy?
Obviously he should have some veggies and fruit but… beans.

For most people, your brain is probably pretty good at vividly imaging the sensation of licking different surfaces. Try it; focus an imagine licking a towel. Mmm. Fluffy!
