Had out of body experiences, have had lucid dreams that were premonitions. Usually very trivial and unhelpful things. The concept fascinates me, never experienced or tried it but, based on my other experiences, I believe there is something to it. Would love to hear your experiences.
OK, you may think I'm nuts but I've had several myself, although they're not what I'd call premonitions. A couple came years ago without any outside stimulant, but I've been using medical marijuana for the last two years for chronic hip and back pain due to bursitis and arthritis, mostly at night to help get to sleep. Once the relaxation kicks in (5 minutes after 3-4 puffs) and before falling asleep, the reality of the visions I get is incredible. It's gotten to where my wife will often ask me the next morning if I went "travelling" (as I call it) last night and where I went or what I saw. The sensation is hard to describe, but it's as if my mind becomes free to roam through many different tangents and suddenly I'll find myself at the beach, on a ballfield, or dozens of other places. But I'm able to still be in full control of what I do or say within that vision, unlike while being in a normal dream state. Most startling are the recollection of some dreams that I've realized I've had repeatedly but never remembered before, and I suddenly can recall them in great detail. They come flooding back like I flipped a switch, and I'm amazed that I never remembered them before, even though I now know I've had that same dream many times.
I've come to believe that the marijuana is somehow unlocking a door to a part of the brain that's normally dormant, but it opens just a crack on rare occasions when under the right conditions. I could tell you about some unbelievable experiences, but I know if someone else told me something similar, I'd think they were crazy too.
I'd love to know exactly how it works!
