    But now imagine there was a way to trigger this on purpose and remain lucid.

    Time dilution is absolutely real. Allowing us to experience more “life” per time but Its that controlling part that’s tricky.

      I’ve read that keeping a dream journal helps. Basically, you’re training whatever part of your consciousness is still active in dream land to notice that it’s important.

      I’ve always wondered - do we know what is actually the cause of this?

      I’ve had this happen before in similar circumstances as the post but way less severe, and I always figured it was because the brain’s “processing speed” increased, allowing it to process a bigger quantity of information per unit of time, but I don’t think that would make sense given that entering this state usually needs you to be hella tired?
