Falling back asleep quickly

Why the minutes after the exercise matter.

Early evidence2 min read

In a dim red-lit bedroom, a person sinks gently into a sea of clouds flowing over the bed.

People who fall back asleep quickly after the exercise succeed more often. In the large study, a lucid dream happened in 18 percent of cases when people fell asleep within 10 minutes, otherwise in 11 percent.

What helps

  1. Little light, ideally red light.
  2. No scrolling and no reading messages.
  3. Staying awake briefly is enough, about 10 to 20 minutes.
  4. Continue the technique until you fall asleep.
