Mnemonic induction of lucid dreams (MILD)

Mnemonic induction of lucid dreams (MILD)

To use the MILD technique:

  1. As you fall asleep, think of a recent dream.
  2. Identify a “dreamsign,” or something that’s irregular or strange in the dream. An example is the ability to fly.
  3. Think about returning to the dream. Acknowledge that the dreamsign only happens when you dream.
  4. Tell yourself, "The next time I dream, I want to remember that I am dreaming." Recite the phrase in your head.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Shankul Varada

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.
