Apparently people can go from zero to Neo in the Matrix in just under 14 days.

As some of you know I put together this comprehensive dream training program that is unique to the world, so unique that several dream researchers are now taking a closer look because unlike old-school methods I'm targetting actual neurological development with regards to dream experiences because dreams aren't some magic puff the magic dragon event, they really do require neural pathways and neurons to process the dream experiences in all regions of the brain.

People who don't develop this ability to dream (and we all have 3-5 dreams each night, some birds dream, and all mammals dream) stunt the development of this gift we all have had since birth, the older we get the more stunted and atrophic dreaming becomes until at some point many people never have a dream again.

For the first time, and I know because I'm a member of the International Association for the Study of Dreams, friends with many real dream researchers and authors spanning 22 years, having taken many programs myself as well as studied cultural dreaming trends on youtube that the vast majority of dream information out there is utter fallacious bullshit.

Why do I know, I've read nearly every scientific paper I can get my hands on that studies dream neurology and psychology plus have 33 years of experience as a lucid or self-aware dreamer nearly every night... decades worth of scientific and actual hands-on experience with it.

The youtube "gurus" and their stair at a pine-cone, snort mugwort, put a crystal under your bed, make a wish and it will happen kind of garbage that only further degrades the dream experience for people who actually want to learn this skill, and develop to the level where they can program and control their dream content as they see fit.

Why this is a problem? Dreaming naturally happens every time we sleep, but we do develop a dreaming mind which up until recently high-resolution fMRI studies started to compare active dreamers vs inactive dreamers to see what neurological differences existed between the two and the findings of these studies show that people who participate in their own dreams develop much higher white matter (neural pathways) and grey matter (neurons) vs inactive dreamers.

What do you think is doing all of that processing power to produce a dream experience? The brain obviously. Dreams are epiphenomenal of information processing in the brain and neuroscience proves it's a gained skill just like learning a language.

If you study language development then you will know if a child is not exposed to early language development while the brain is forming neural pathways and neurons up to the age of 25 and then reintroduce the now-adult to learning language the once feral child will never be able to speak fluently due to stunted language development. Well... turns out dreams are no different and prone to similar developmental problems hence why many adults who want to start learning how to dream having not developed it in their developmental years struggle to get results and usually end up frustrated and quit.

The problem... if you really understand the dreaming mind, you'll know that like anything in our body, without proper stimulation and development it will atrophy, even if developed in our younger years then neglected in adulthood. How do you know if you stunted your dreaming mind and it's atrophic? Well, here is a list of symptoms:

1.) Little or no dream recall from the 3-5 your mind naturally produces.
2.) Lack of sensory-feedback, no taste, no smell, no touch, no sound, dim images.
3.) Depreciated higher-brain functions like metacognition and awareness were while in a dream you are in a trance-like state, unable to preform rational tasks or make choices.

In every region of the brain that deals with dreaming people who are active dreamers have much more brain activity and neural development then non-dreamers who are in a state of atrophy.

It gets worse, the older you get, and the more neglected this becomes the atrophy can become so severe you may never dream again. How do we know? Dream frequency studies on age shows a gradual cognitive decline in the dream experience. No different than any other skill that if we stop developing tends to dull over time. It's just the nature of how the brain optimizes our current focus and interests and wires itself to adapt.

Knowing all this I created a system that uses stimulation -> review -> replay -> recall to target every area of cognitive development for the dreaming mind and treat atrophy.

What does that mean?

1.) Stimulation during the day with a source material.
2.) Reviewing the source material during pre-sleep REM Reply
3.) Observing the source material in Dream Replay as part of our mind long-term memory consolidation process that uses dream-replay.
4.) Recall when waking up and several techniques to address proper stimulation of dream recall to increase dream recall frequency.

I based this method on many years of training in cognitive dreaming using a system I developed back in 1998 called "Cognitive Mapping" long before neuroscience supported that dreams are just a cognitive skill no different than learning to play the piano, paint a picture or drive a car.

Taking a skill-based approach using stimulation exercises I wanted to see if this new system to dreaming would work so put together a website with courses and packed it full of dream research, neuroscience and psychology to see measure the effectiveness of treating the brain like a muscle and working out these regions with daily exercises would that rehabilitate atrophy and help students develop actual functional skills with their dreams.

The results have been outstanding. From people who have low-frequency dream recall ie one week, now having multiple dreams each night.

People who have been audible/visual dreamers (some as long as 30 years) suddenly having restored sensory-feedback such as touch, taste, and smell providing a much richer dream experience.

Imagine not having taste/touch/smell in your dreams for 30 years to now being able to now touch and feel, pick up dream food, and actually smell it and taste it. In the olden days that would be proclaimed a miracle but no... that's neuroscience and understanding the dreaming mind addressing atrophy with stimulation exercises... not magic, science, skill, and training.

Just like memory and perception, the awareness training addresses cognitive atrophy in the prefrontal cortex using stimulation, and every student who has engaged that course has had rapid success with lucidity or self-awareness.

The other difference is active vs passive dreaming as part of the training so students are now not just having dreams they are programming their dream experiences and almost every person who reaches 14 days ends up going full Neo in the matrix with dream control. That took me 2 years to develop when fumbling in the dark so very happy with those results.

Well, it's very new, I'm just very happy that these results are so dramatic for the people willing to go through this system and I can't wait to see where it will end up in the future. So far it's just the 3 neurological developmental/atrophy rehabilitation courses and the psychological course that has seen completion but even the psychological course was tremendously beneficial for the one student who progressed through it, again another win for dream psychology.

I did a video to appreciate and recognize their work and success with this new program. Like I said to a few dream researchers I know, this will revolutionize dreaming and having shared the results they agree so hopefully I'll publish more papers on the results in the near future for submission.
