If masturbation would have caused lucid dreams, I would have been a Lucid Zen Master in high school!
Actually Lucid Zen Masters would be 90% of population:)What a pity!
You know I think spankin the monkey isn’t too great for LDing. In my experience before this forum I would never be able to remember a single dream if I had masturbated the night before but if I went cold turkey i could start remembering them. Once I found out about LDing I made my intent to start remembering and I did. I think masturbation is only good to relax yourself if you’re trying to WILD otherwise it just makes it harder to remember your dreams.
I have found that if I abstain from these…activities…then my dreams become far raunchier than usual. So I guess if I use MILD, then these dreams could become quite a reliable dreamsign for lucidity.
I think masturbation helps to relax the body by getting off the tension in the body and maybe the mind? and so you can sleep faster and deeper.
Cute kitten! It reminds me of the advert where the energiser bunny is racing the other pink, fluffy bunnies. And they have evil expressions on their faces 
hah 
god kills the kittens??
KILLL THEM ALL!!
I’ll do a research about this thread…and ll post later sth more
day first - before going to bed, do some fancy job, and lets see if i ve my recall better or not.
to be edited ( continued)

first night - as soon i got to bed i fall asleep so nothing from doing what ive planned…
and i had pretty “some” dreams - so recall is good without it.
hug
In case you finally do what you`ve planned and it works please dont forget to tell us the technique(step by step preffered) you have used:)
I finally did that Jack what ive planned… and I tell this : when i don do this i ve more vivid dreams, and more wild dreams and whats is most important I DO REMEBER THEM…
after todays night i ll tell u - i dont remeber any dream…
i remeber only one dream BUT i had it after falling back asleep when my alarm clock stroke. - so this one doesnt count.
so masturbation doesnt help to remeber dreams. It only relaxes the body, u just drift away, and dream is deeper… so when i dont do it i ve better sex dreams…I ll stick to this option keeping myself HaH instead of realising the tension before sleep - i ve great sex in dreams when i dont to it, so it feels even better than masturbation before falling asleep.
and Jack… i wont tell the techniques 
ur not my bf to tell u about that stuff.
hug
Such a pity!:)Then its all left to my imagination:)Not too bad when i actually think about it:)
btw jack… girls can do without it for pretty long time…even too 2 years 
…well…i dont know about other gilrs… but in my case it was that. There were various reasons why i didnt do that… and why i do this…
besides, not many girls ll admitt they do this. So guys, don’t expect girls to post in that thread you will only see exceptions
hug
I bet everyone can live without it for a long time but i dont think its very healthy,and besides why not when you can?
Ok,seems we took it bit off topic,lets leave the rest for chat:)
I don’t know about girls, but I’ve read that guys need to frequently flush the prostate.
Plus, for males it has a regulating effect on hormone levels. Going without for a long time increases DHT levels which makes one more prone to male pattern baldness and other problems.
Of course, I’ve read that wanking six times a day is even more destructive to your health…
It might be bit painfull but i wouldnt call it destructive to health:)
i read somewhere that even habing sex often tha 3 times a week may be unhealthy - the body is weaker etc.etc…
I couldn’t resist but to reply on this topic…
Masturbation is a form of meditation. I read this in a book recently 
. It really relaxes your body and mind just as meditation would. But I’m not sure if it helps with enhancing lucid dreams.
If I find out anything more I will post it. 
I don’t have anything against masturbation (well,how could I?.. )
Masturbation/sex is a form of meditation only if is practiced using tantra/tao methods - basically no ejaculation.
Masturbation is not good or bad, is not moral or immoral … it only has some energetic implications …
And as I said before, you may need every bit of your energy in order to go beyond a certain lucid threshold.
I feel ya, Hai,
I feel that too much of anything can be bad for you. Masturbating once in awhile is ok. It’s a type of release. But doing it daily may not be such a good idea for future or prolonged health. Ya know?
I heard of tantra but didn’t realize there was no ejaculation involved. Thanks, I learned something new today!
