Provoking lucid dreams at home with sensory cues paired with pre-sleep cognitive training (Whitmore, N., et al. 2024) sciencedirect.com
Found that targeted lucidity reactivation (TLR) significantly increased the frequency of lucid dreams among participants, demonstrating that TLR can be effectively implemented with minimal technical requirements outside of a laboratory setting.

Demonstrated that combining SSILD-based cognitive training with targeted lucidity reactivation (TLR) and multimodal sensory cues during REM sleep, facilitated by wearable EEG technology, can effectively induce lucid dreams in a laboratory environment.
