Re: MAPS: Dream induction and Lucid dreaming via psychedelics

[Kevin Meek <siggismund@xxxxxxxx>]

There are a few substances out there that do just this, the most famous
of which is Calea zacatachichi.  Controlled clinical tests with extracts
of this plant showed that it can induce drowsiness, followed by a series
of deep, but brief "cat naps" during which the patients claimed to have
unusually vivid lucid dreams significantly more frequently than the
control group.
