Frequent Low-Intensity Lucid Dreaming Correlated with Higher Rates of Psychopathology
Lucid dreams are one of the least studied aspects of the dreaming experience. Freud, whose influence on Psychoanalysis brought Dream Interpretation out of the occult domain and into the mainstream, knew of them only by rumors of such, and even expressed some skepticism.
In popular culture, lucid dreams are typically viewed as positive, i.e. as promoting mental well-being and enhancing the enjoyment of the dream state, but new research suggests that their effect on mental well-being may depend on another factor: dream intensity.
Researchers at Ben Gurion University compared the rates of Psychopathology between normal dreamers, and two types of frequent lucid dreamers: those who report frequent low-intensity lucid dreaming and those who report frequent high-intensity lucid dreaming.
Although no difference was found between normal dreamers and frequent high-intensity lucid dreamers, both were found to have significantly lower rates of Psychopathology than frequent low-intensity lucid dreamers (who, consequently, had the highest rates).
This suggests that, at least in specific relation to absence of Psychopathology, lucid dreaming is not inherently superior to normal dreaming and may, in fact, be a risk factor if it is associated with low intensity dreams, though normal low-intensity dreamers may be no better off.
This suggests that some minimal level of dream intensity, rather than lucidity or lack thereof, is critical to our mental health and that some lucid dreamers may inhibit this, though it may also be that health issues may impact dream intensity. As other studies have found that very high dream arousal can also be associated with higher rates of Psychopathology and sleep disorders, it would appear there is a 'Goldilocks' level of dream arousal which doesn't specifically care whether you're lucid or not.
These findings should give pause to anyone trying to deliberately provoke lucid dreaming. If the dreams you provoke through this are typically low-intensity, you may be harming yourself, and should at least consider limiting the frequency of these experiences, though of course not every lucid dreamer is trying to be lucid, and for natural lucid dreamers, dream intensity may be useful as a diagnostic criteria for risk of Psychopathology.

Brewing up Earth’s earliest life | #Geology #GeologyPage
Around 4 billion years ago, Earth was an inhospitable place, devoid of oxygen, bursting with volcanic eruptions, and bombarded by asteroids, with no signs of life in even the simplest forms.

Living with locals, Myanmar
Getting as far as we legally could north in Myanmar, to a place in the mountains I won't name (for safety reasons), it was forbidden to explore the area, and the military made sure of this. However, one early morning we snuck out of town and explore the neighbouring mountains, where after several hours of trekking we came across a little village situated right on top of a hilltop. The entire village came to a standstill when we wandered through, as if they hadn’t seen caucasians before (the vast majority would not have). It was a really cultural experience and they were just the most friendly and accommodating people. Among other things that day, we stared in the opening photograph of a local democratic building (Myanmar people are hugely oppressed). What an honour. Later that day we also were invited by a young girl that had been showing us around, to stay with her family that evening.
This photograph is of two children within that family we stayed with, warming up inside by the fire as night drew in. We were made a very big special dinner by “Grandma” that evening, just for her new guests (us). Filling our bellies up, we then slept on a couple of blankets next to this fire for the night.

Lyrid meteor shower: All you need to know - Composite image of Lyrid and not-Lyrid meteors over New Mexico from April, 2012. Image via NASA/ MSFC/ Danielle Moser. The annual Lyrid meteor shower peaks Saturday night and early Sunday morning! It’s active each year from about April 16 to 25. In 2018, the peak of this shower – which tends to come in a burst and usually lasts for less than a day – is expected to fall on the morning of April 22, with little or no interference from the waxing moon...
