Is being a light sleeper a medical condition?

Do you have to be a light sleeper for lucid dreaming?

• do you have to be a light sleeper if you want too lucid dream because im a deep sleeper and just cant see myself waking up in my dream

• Answer:

  No, you don't. You just need to realize that you are dreaming, then you can manipulate it. You don't need to be a light sleeper, but you need to be a bit more awake than "heavy sleeping" to access your higher level brain functions. See, dreaming is just your imagination running wild, with most of your senses cut off. Your brain treats the imagination like it is real, so it develops feelings to match what is happening in the dream. A few bits of advice for lucid dreaming ... - Get comfortable. Not hot, not cold. Brush your teeth, use the bathroom, etc. - When you get sleepy, imagine things you would like to happen. Yourself in your favorite TV show. You with super powers. Anything. Be sure to close your eyes. - As you drift asleep, continue imagining.
