REM Dreamer Lucid Dreaming Induction Device

Despite the fact that I seem to take this device off constantly during the night subconsciously (which is something to consider; whether you can wear headphones and other devices through the night, but this has no direct reflection on the quality of the device), when I do end up managing to where it through the night I can say that this device works excellent. The REM detection is wonderful, and there are many settings that you can customize to get the device to work to your liking as you figure out what settings are best for you and your needs, but overall this is a high quality device that, although I haven't used a NovaDreamer personally, I can't find any features on this device that aren't present on the NovaDreamer, and I can't find any problems or flaws with this device to suggest that it wouldn't work as well as a NovaDreamer. I guess you've read enough reviews of this device, and many of the other things that people set in the reviews are fairly accurate, so I figured I'd do something different, and post a review with some excerpts from the first dream I had using this device, so you can get a sense of the experience you might have with it ( I've read others'experiences, and the experience I had using the REM Dreamer reflects many of the experiences others have had) So as not to bore you with details you don't need (I realize you came here for a review, not to read a dream, I'm going to only include the details mainly relevant to the REM Dreamer and how it affected my dream): "pon arriving at the bathroom door I look at it and can't fully make out what's written on it, but after a couple of seconds of looking at the bathroom door I realize that it's a girl's room, and that I ran past the men's room (there are two bathroom doors side-by-side), and I begin to think about not wanting to go in, even though I need to change, because I don't want to embarrass myself by going into a girl's room, and I might get in trouble. Suddenly my REM Dreamer begins flashing, and I realize that I'm in a dream. I immediately have a false awakening; this is my first time using the REM Dreamer, I and at first I think I woke up, but I open my eyes and tried to take off the REM Dreamer to check, but I find that the REM Dreamer won't come off, and all I can see his pitch black. I press the reality check button on the front, because I believe I've woken up, but at the same time I feel like something isn't right, and when I press the button my thoughts are confirmed when the device doesn't light up for blink, and I realize that I'm dreaming. Not being able to get the REM Dreamer off, I try to close my eyes and will myself to wake up, and I begin having a falling sensation; like I've fallen into a black hole, and this falling sensation feels extremely unpleasant; I sit in this blackness falling for about 10 or 15 seconds, and I feel extremely unpleasant because I'm not sure if or when this falling sensation is going to end (even though I know it will eventually because I will eventually have to wake up from my REM cycle, but my dream logic also slightly makes me doubt that I will, even though I override it and keep telling myself that I will have to eventually wake up because it's scientific). Each time the REM Dreamer is unable to come off, I feel extremely nervous that I'm never going to be able to get it off, and that I'm never going to wake up, even though I know that I'm dreaming, and that scientifically there's no way that it's possible, I dream logic partially interferes, and makes me doubt, and feel like maybe this is an exception to the rule, but the other part of me knows it isn't, but at the same time I still feel uncomfortable, and hold a slight concern that I'm just going to keep having false awakenings, and never be able to get this REM Dreamer off of my eyes. Eventually I do wake up about three more times, and with some persistence I managed to get the REM Dreamer off my head, and I go over to my window which stretches to the floor (in the dream) and attempt to open it. With some persistence I get the window open, but not in the traditional sense, I sort of full the side of the window and the side of the window bends open like rubber (it's kind of hard to explain in words). At this point I'm outside, and I notice that it's overcast, but the weather is comfortable, and it feels like early morning (it's about 9 AM in the morning in the real world at this time, so my brain is trying to re-create the sensation of waking up in the morning). It feels extremely comfortable outside, and I begin attempting to fly in the air. I struggled to get up at first and try to simply float off into the air, but I realize that is not working, because maybe my mind isn't ready for that yet, so I begin flapping my arms and finding myself elevating into the air about 20 feet or so. As my brain attempts to feel like I shouldn't be flying, I remind myself that this is a dream, and that the only reason I find myself being held back at all by gravity is because my brain holds on to the idea of gravity, and the gravity should exist in a dream." (Note: this is why LaBarge emphasizes that you get training and education in the knowledge of dreaming and how it works, so that when you do become lucid you can make the most of it, which is why I felt it necessary to include this point in the review). ... "I also notice that I'm almost at the end of the pond, and have reached an open area where the ground is covered in hard dirt (much like a national park, but without the trees), and I decide to land. As I land my REM Dreamer begins blinking again, and I have a couple of more false awakenings (I realize this again each time because the reality check button doesn't work) before I finally awaken for real. When I awaken for real, I already know I'm awake this time, because I can sense the presence of my physical body again, but as I stare into the darkness of the REM Dreamer covering my eyes, I see his silhouette of my face looking at me and moving (it's almost like seeing myself moving in a mirror, and one of those holographic images you see in the movie where someone appears as a spirit, only there partly transparent). This makes me doubt whether I'm really awake for a moment, and whether my brain is just creating the illusionary sensation of my body, but after about six or seven seconds, as I become more situated to my body, and aware of it, I watch the image fade, and I open my eyes to see my bedroom, turn on my computer to write down my dream, and see that it's 9:17 in the morning." I should also note I've never had sleep paralysis (consciously), mystical or psychic experiences that I can recall, and this is the first time something like this has happened to me, and I can only credit it to the REM Dreamer. I hope that helps anyone thinking about purchasing one of these devices. it's really worth the money if you're serious about lucid dreaming, because it's an investment that you're going to be able to use for the rest of your life, and despite the price, when you consider that fact, it really isn't that much money at all considering what you're going to get out of it, but I also do recommend getting training by reading books like World of Lucid Dreaming by Dr. Stephen LaBerge, and Lucid Dreaming: Gateway To The Inner Self by Robert Waggoner so that you can familiarize yourself of lucid dreaming, how to get results in your dreams, what you're capable of inside of your dreams, and how to make the most of your dreams. I would strongly encourage anyone looking to lucid dream to purchase this product; don't hesitate, because over time, a small investment like $250 will pay off over the course of having this device for the rest of your life. I hope this review helps anyone who's on the fence,and to learn more about the features of this device, you can search for "REM Dreamer manual" on Google, and also search for the NovaDreamer manual; both are available in PDF format,and they're worth reading to familiarize yourself with the device and what it can do.

Worst purchase decision I've made in a long time! Beware of any web site that recommends this devise. I thought I did my research on this but the internet is full of lies concerning this product. The product manual is without even ONE picture of anything and does NOT identify the manufacturer and does NOT provide any warranty or contact information. It is NOT ready for public sale (it's a bare circuit board- NOT kidding) and if you make the mistake of buying this you will also waste an enormous amount of time trying to work with it. The device has flashing lights that are supposed to wake you up when you are dreaming and in REM stage sleep. But the lights just flash randomly. Fraud. There is nothing being detected! Does not work as advertised as it DOES NOT DETECT REM! Because it is sold through a 3rd party your return value (likely less than 50%) will be determined by them. Any company that imports and sells this should be ashamed of themselves. I am surprised and disappointed that Amazon sponsors this. I'm going to keep this devise as an example of just how bad some of the electronic crap you can buy today really is.

Unless you are an experienced Lucid Dreamer and you're doing it on your own, this will not help you at all. I thought it would be a great way to help me out with doing more Lucid Dreaming. It didn't. Unless you're doing it all the time, save your money.

This product is not going to help you if you haven already taken the basic steps down the pathinto lucid dreaming and remebering nad alway always writing them down physically with a pen to papper. for whatever reason this method tells all systems your muscles . Your brain your eyes tell your subconscious that you remember your dreams this works both ways also you can write down mantras and such that will I personally think this product is great ut the fact that I cant turn down the volume on the REM Alarm is enough to make me write a revie wonderful product if it dint wake me up complteley every time I hit rem. lol so maybe if that send out and up dat and maybe a cable or something for it or if I could return it and they could put an option in to turn the noise down on that everything else is fully adjustable and this is one of the most comfortable masks available if your not a light sleeper and you already rember your dreams then this is your choice for sure you can always shut either the noise or the lights of thats what I do just red light .

There are a lot of customization settings so it takes some practice to get the lights just correct without waking you up. Not nearly as comfortable to wear compared to Remee. The Remee I feel lights up at bad times and is more disturbing to your sleep. However, I would recommend to anyone that wants to try either - download a REM tracking app for your phone. These programs are about a dollar and can give rough estimates on when you are in REM. Then you can try to set the mask accordingly - setting the delay correct. This mask does not need interval programing because it tracks you REM, but it does need delay and you need to adjust the sensitivity and brightness. I got it to work once, but not since. Have not gotten Remee to work at all. I've only had each for about a month, so can't say much more until I have more practice. I think it is important to know you will not take it out of the box and start lucid dreaming, but it holds promise.
