Back when I was thin ... geez, I never really noticed the connection between my weight, how apnea my be disrupting my sleep, and how I just never remember any dreams anymore. DOH!
Anyway, I'm a lucid dreamer. It's soooooooooo much fun. Even helped me break out of a terrifying nightmare once. The one dream about dreaming that I have -- who knows? maybe it WAS an out-of-body experience -- was dreaming of flying. Only three times that I recall. The last one was almost ten years ago. I just floated up out of myself, through the roof, into the crisp, clear black night to glide around all over a sleepy, snow-muffled Ann Arbor. Pure joy -- so intense you'd think you were going to explode because your body couldn't contain it ... but ha! I wasn't in my body! It just flowed from me and out into the night....
When I tried melatonin and valerian, they gave me sleep deep enough to reclaim my dreams. Maybe I'll check out Lifethyme down in the Village tomorrow after I teach ....
