Alexander Petkov (Hischeron), a lucid dreaming practitioner with nine years of experience, regularly participates in REMspace experiments. He achieves lucidity almost daily, up to 28 nights per month.
– What is the best technique?
– Maintaining a daily routine and a sleep schedule. I sleep for 4–6 hours, followed by a sleep interruption for an hour, then a lucid or regular dream, then another interruption, and then either a lucid dream or a failure. That is, I get a practically guaranteed LD in 12 hours (slow-wave sleep + attempts + sleep interruption + REM sleep). Having a specific plan and chasing records stimulates it. Eating chicken eggs—boiled, fried, and rarely raw—also helps. A sufficient dose is one egg every three days. On nights of research, I eat 1–2 eggs.
– What is your favorite activity to do in the phase state?
– Games and quests. This further develops me as a practitioner. My passion is to win and kill, to level up various attacking abilities. During my practice, I have adopted more than 40 different abilities of various fictional characters from works of fantasy and video games.
– Is this astral projection for you, or is it something that happens in the brain?
– Inside the brain. Only that and nothing else. When I believed that these were worlds of sorts, I did much worse. When I simply accepted that it was in my head, everything started to work better. Apparently, my attitude towards it became simpler, and it became easier to achieve success.
