Essentially, LD is a hybrid sleep state which interferes with regular
sleep state and therefore decreases sleep health. Any regular
interference with normal sleep, which has evolved over hundreds of
millions of years, is detrimental to health.
So, a philosophy of disturbed/hybrid sleep? I doubt it.

Rubbish. Jeremy/David led such a chaotic lifestyle (divorced, living
with different people in different houses etc) that he would have been suffering interrupted sleep without the added bother of trying to
train himself to enter a controlled dreamstate through further
interruption to primeval, proven, healthy sleep patterns. Chris, who
a while back said unequivocally that he was going to leave this place
- and then returned - seems to have declined at least when his present utterances here are compared with his utterances from a decade or so
ago and I can guarantee he has not the time (left), the patience or
the self discipline to attempt what you spell out in your tome. Me,
well I'm just a born in the wool cynic who has a low opinion (yep, I
do opine occasionally) of bullshit artists and scammers like you,
especially after monster lies are told by the same person (you) - like
your shared paternity with a famous American actor and his well known
sister AND your colossal porkie pie about having one of the world's
HIGHEST IQ's.
iow: 'opine' based on hearsay & ignorance all ya want (if that's all ya
can do heh: life merely from an armchair pov?) just don't knock it until
you've actually tried it mate, and coz then you'd likely be singin' a
completely different tune altogether, and 'might' then even maybe

I value sleep more and more as I age. Along with my strict exercise,
weights and jogging regime, and my wife's Mediterranean cooking, it
has an elevated position in keeping me highly functional as time goes
on. There is NO WAY I would start interrupting it on the say-so of
the likes of you, mate. No way. My dreams, especially if I've had a
nice little pipe before retiring, are entertaining enough.

Yes! Being unconscious in our dreams mirrors just how unconscious and
asleep we are in our waking lives, which from a waking point of view
is
an
irremediable situation per se.
What is this "per se" bullshit of yours Brian? That's the sort of pretentious nonsense time wasters and semi-literate types utter when
they haven't anything left in their limited vocubularies but still
need to say something lest the audience think they are empty headed
scammers.
So, tell me, how does saying "per se" add to your nonsensical
semi-assertion that "being unconscious in our dreams mirrors just how unconscious and asleep we are in our waking lives..." (vomit)?
I mean, what the fuck are you trying to say here?
You should be working in a Manilla call centre you have such a command
of HM's English lol
One avenue for redemption remains,
however,
in that with awareness it’s always a two-way street because, change
one
and you effectively change the other!
The end result (of lucid dreaming) is to make people more thoughtful
and
aware of their waking surroundings and the lives they're living. This
is
because becoming more lucid and aware in dreams automatically carries
over
into becoming more lucid and aware during waking, something which
ultimately equates with a general increase in awareness overall.
So yes, lucid dreaming does genuinely expand the mind!
