The experiment involved participants utilizing specialized equipment including sensors and earbuds. On September 24, one participant sleeping at home induced lucid dreaming, a state in which you are aware that you are dreaming. It is apparently a trainable skill, although I have only ever personally experienced it a handful of times throughout my life.

    It also helps to start doing reality checks while awake such that they become habitual enough to occur while dreaming. You want to specifically check things that tend to be vulnerable to dream logic like clocks or books because they’ll often change if you look away and check / read them a second time.

      Very true. However, my comment was from a song called Silent Lucidity.

      Gorgeous song if you’ve never heard it. It’s all about lucid dreaming.
