 For those of you who don't know, I've recently returned from a really nice trip to Iceland. It was only a few days, but I've never been to Iceland. I've never seen the Northern Lights before, and I've never really experienced a cold country like that before as well. So a number of things happened. Firstly, obviously, I've vlogged the whole thing. If you want to see on Transcend Your Limits, there's a lot of nice videos and like well-edited things of Iceland and Reykjavik. But more interestingly for you guys, I had literally the most intense, vivid, profound, even scary at times, dreams that I've had in my entire life in Iceland. And I was only there for three or four days. The bed was nothing special. I mean, it was a comfortable bed, memory foam. I had a small memory foamy pillow thing. The temperature of the room was about normal. There was heaters, but it was cold outside. So I don't know what it was. Okay, I don't know if it's something to do with like where I was in the world. People have reported feeling like certain energies in Scandinavia, for example, in the top half of the world. I don't know if it's that. I don't know if it was the cold or just like being in a new location. But I've never experienced dreams this vivid. This was insane. Like this was really, really detailed, profound like storylines that morphed into other storylines and like the feeling would just shift from one moment to the other. People would enter the dream characters, different themes. It was really crazy. You know, normally my dreams are nowhere near that complicated and they're normally quite profound, but nowhere near that level. So I don't know. I really have no idea why my dreams were so incredibly detailed on my trip to Iceland. Yeah, I just wanted to put this video out and ask you guys essentially what you think it could be. I want to try and involve you more in the comments and like have a more of an interaction with you guys regarding this stuff. So what do you think it was like? I mean, I was in Iceland. It was the first time I've had a cold country. I've never been to a really cold country. It was my first time. It was the furthest north I'd ever been. So I mean, I've been to Scotland before, but I think this was was a lot further north in Iceland. My geography is not great, by the way. So if I'm making any mistakes, let me know. Yeah, I don't know what it could have been. The only thing I would say is that the dreams started on the first night. So the first night I slept in Iceland was the first intense dream and then I had one every single night until I left and an almost like clockwork when I returned back to England. The dreams went back to their normal state, you know, I can still remember them, but they were nowhere near as vivid like nowhere near It's not even on the same level. I'm actually I'm literally trying to work out what it could have been myself because it's really baffled me I don't know what it could have been I mean, I know that when when we travel when we experience new things we do get an intense boost in our dreams because it's our brain's way of sort of organizing the memories our short-term memories into long-term memories and that process if we if we happen to be Lucid in the middle of it or if we happen to interrupt our sleep during the middle of it You know, we can get in the middle of that process and sort of experience a more vivid dream or a lucid dream even. The only thing that I can think of that might have caused this sort of dream is an interruption to my sleep because from what I remember there was a lot of really loud scraping noise every single morning at 6 a.m. And I think what it was in retrospect was actually the snow or ice being cleared from the roads And I think they use these bulldozer type things. I only saw one of them, but I assume that that's what I used at 6 a.m. and and it would scrape the snow diagonally across the road to make a path for the cars to go on That is the and I do remember vividly hearing that noise two or three of the mornings as well That's the only thing that I can really think of that might have Had an effect or that it might have bled through into my dreams And if it was that it reinforces the point I've been making for a long time Which is that into and Daniel lovers made this point as well interruption of your sleep is Usually quite an effective way of having more lucid dreams Or certainly having more dreams that you remember because you're awakening part of your brain But not so much of your brain that you become awake and you forget the dream So by interrupting your sleep, whether it's through a noise like a snow plow or Having a cat or a baby or something or even just to setting an alarm on your phone you are able to increase the chances of becoming lucid have more vivid dreams that you remember and Ultimately improve your dream scenario, right? So you might you might think that an interruption of your sleep is a bad thing It's not always a bad thing It just depends on how much of your sleep is interrupted if it's just a sound I mean I slept really really well in Iceland despite the sound of the snow plow interrupting my sleep It wasn't enough to wake me up. It was just enough that I could I guess become more lucid or have more of an awareness and Experience more of a vivid dream. It didn't interrupt my sleep in terms of making me feel worse the next morning I actually felt really well rested most of the days So I would say that some interruption like some auditory interruption or some stimuli in that sense Can be a good thing and the only interruption that I would say is not good long-term Is the wake back-to-bed method which involves completely waking up and getting out of bed and then going back to bed but from my experience and This you know this this thing in Iceland reinforces it Some auditory interruption to your sleep in the early hours of the morning can very easily lead to more lucid dreams And at the very worst-case scenario more vivid dreams. Anyway, that's it for today Done.
