Neurological research definitively and repeatedly concludes that there is a bottleneck in our cognitive function - when we do more than one thing at a time, we become less efficient and more error‑prone. Our systems get overloaded and we crash. In fact, we are actually wired to monotask - to give dedicated focus to one task at a time. Whether you call it monotasking, mindfulness, being present, or any other name, the goal is the same: Give your focus to one thing at a time and do it with your all.

This book will take you through the simple steps required to begin to control your dreams. The book also looks at the benefits and the practicalities of lucid dreaming. The techniques described have been gathered together from expert sources and are designed to be simple to use and easy to learn. Each night, we spend about one and a half to two hours dreaming. We dream about once every 90 minutes of sleep. The time you spend in dreams becomes longer throughout the night, from about 10 minutes to around 45 minutes or slightly longer. But what happens when we sleep?

Fumio Sasaki changed his life when he became a minimalist. But before minimalism could really stick, he had to make it a habit. All of us live our lives based on the habits we’ve formed, from when we get up in the morning to what we eat and drink to how likely we are to actually make it to the gym. In Hello, Habits, Sasaki explains how we can acquire the new habits that we want - and get rid of the ones that don’t do us any good.

Quite often, you can’t even remember what happened in your dreams, leaving you upset or feeling confused. But it doesn’t have to be that way! Imagine experiencing all the things that happen in dreams, but with one extraordinary difference: You are “lucid” - consciously, joyously in control. With lucid dreaming, you have the opportunity to decide whatever you want to dream, while being fully conscious.
