Hey @fast2future, nice post I appreciate your mind and intentions friend. Thanks for the follow, I'm now following back.

Ok so in 2013 and friend and I carried out a polyphase sleep experiment on ourselves, loosely modeling the nazi uberman study and heavily integrating meditation and dream work.

I found myself studying how we may manipulate our melatonin levels to assist lucid dreaming experiences as well as what effects heightened hormone production levels would have?

There was no other way I could directly find out for myself and I had no fixed expectations or goals initially. We simply just wanted to see what could happen.

I ended up progressing to a 21 hour awake cycle (3hrs waking/30min active meditation/30 sleep dream/repeat) for over a month. I stopped the experiement after I lost a huge clump of hair from my crown in 3 big lumps over three consecutive nights.

It was enough to scare me back into my body and the bald patches stayed for a number of months. None of the signs of symptoms for sudden hair loss matched what happened to me.

In hind sight I feel that if I had more knowledge and perhaps supplemented super-foods like spirulina or anything actually, things could have been different.

I may add I have also been daily sungazing and vegan for a number of years, not specifically in preparation for this however I do believe it has a big influence on my results.

I have it all documented in vlog format and will probably reupload them sometime. However there were lots of incredible realizations during this experience that left me with more questions than answers.

There are so many aspect of this that fascinate me and since then I have had much better success since, by doing things intermittently. Both with polyphase as well as fasting.

I'll be interested to keep an eye out for your future posts.

Wholeness.
