Thanks for watching folks, knew this would definitely be more of a little niche topic within the channel - but I've always been fascinated with dreams and I wanted to share my notable experiences. If you're comfortable sharing, I'd love to hear your own stories and dream theories. Cheers!

I’ve had the “everything huge, but everything tiny” experience. It’s so weird but it’s the only way to describe it! Neat knowing someone else had that.

When I was a child I had a recurring nightmare where is was stuck in a giant machine. Later as an adult tradesman I spent many years in the sprawling oil sands processing complexes of Fort McMurray. I think my childhood nightmares were a foreshadowing of my adult activities.

I absolutely enjoy your all of your content!!

Neat! I like how this channel is evolving 🙌

Long ago I watched a documentary about sleep, and they said sleep paralysis was caused by the brain failing to unlock the body's muscles when consciousness starts to return. So one feels like one is paralyzed. Usually the brain locks our muscles during sleep so we don't act out our dreams and thrash around, but in some people this doesn't work 100% throughout the process. So you could be finishing the dream stage and starting to wake, but your muscles are still locked, giving that night terror or sleep paralysis feeling. Fascinating stuff. I meant to look into it further but just never got around to it, and then forgot about it till now.

I wonder if your dream that became reality is a possible explanation for deja vu: where you feel as if the situation has already happened (but normally you don't consciously remember the dream that mirrored the situation). Except that you did remember because it happened concurrently.

I've had a few dreams that fluctuate in and out of lucidity where I can semi-control the direction. They were always very positive and I welcomed them up until my last one, where it ended with some entity or being grabbing me from behind. I can only describe it as a feeling of what it would be like to be completely powerless. Maybe it was a warning of me getting too "cocky" in my dream control.

thanks for sharing actually love hearing these....I have lots of my own but don't want to share here lol. dude congrats on 10k subscribers, you've gone through some struggles and you're an absolute hustler. I'm watching your channel explode right now - keep it up!

Night terrors can be a scary one. I have them from time to time, usually sleep paralysis. You wake up frozen but alert, and it's like there's something on your chest, and you can't move! I was pretty sure it was a ghost. But in university, I took a medical anthropology class, that was largely cross-cultural case studies. Lo and behold, there was a study on sleep paralysis, AND the big black ball. That study was on newly arrived immigrants in Canada, and the link they made was extremely high stress, and the paralysis and black ball being a physical manifestation of that stress. I thought about the times I had experienced it, and they were also times of major change and upheaval. Pretty interesting.

Throughly enjoying your content since stumbling upon your channel. Love the variety. Keep up the great work 😊

Sleep paralysis is intense man it’s so damn real. So scary. I’ve felt claws in my back and I remember waking up, rushing to the bathroom, looking at my back in the mirror and I saw two red lines around my shoulder blade… scary af

I've just had a profound couple of nights and daze! Family and friends,connections we understand, started to show signs about 2 weeks ago. Universe sometimes warns you for coming shock. ✨️ Too bad the shocks aren't happy ones...non I can think of. But, I'm grateful ✨️🕊✨️

Yes, I have had a few experiences where I visited a few different places in my dreams multiple times. The last time this happened to me, it was of this apartment I moved into. This apartment in my dream wasn't in Canada, and I could access the apartment through a ped-way on the roof. The times I went back in my dreams to this apartment, I always used this ped-way to get in.

Look up John Paul Jackson, the dream interpreter.

After watching this video, I went back and watched your video on your pentacostal church experience. Are you aware that the charismatic movement is really just the kundalini shaktipat with “christian” wrapping paper? Being slain in the spirit and having a shabba dabba do is exactly the same as receiving shaktipat, which is the Hindu religion. Having a kundalini awakening will open one up to the spiritual realm, which could be what you are experiencing.

If you want to see an alternate timeline Edmonton for real, go visit North Battleford. Also on the North Sask, similar river valley, and at one time (100 years ago) the same size as Edm

I get sleep paralysis every now and then. I typically have an out of body experience and I've seen one thing during an experience about 4 years ago now. I didnt expect to see anything and it scared me enough i shot back into my body and then woke up. It sounds weird, but i think it was a gargoyle lol. I didnt get evil vibes from it or anything like that, it just wasnt something i was prepared to see. He looked like a grumpy ogre, around the age of a early 40s early 50s man, and bald. The wings were big, but were folded in a little. He also had a glow coming from him, a pale green white glow that only lit him up and nothing else in the room. I had to get up and get a drink of water after that. When sleep paralysis does hit, it will keep coming back until i sit up for 5 or 10 minutes. That perspectibe thing you mentioned, i think i may know what you mean. Usually its when i first wake up though. It will look like you can reach up and touch the ceiling thats actualky 5 feet away. I used to be able to put myself in that state. Someone said it was alice in wonderland syndrome, but idk. Calling it a syndrome makes it sound like a defect

What direction do you sleep? Basically is your bed facing south, east, north etc…

You can hear the beeping sounds sometimes on psychedelics...

Awesome videos, man. I love your channel. It's weird, I too am located in Edmonton, and I've had so many dreams just like your own, it was almost like hearing you explain my experiences. Even the one about an alternate Edmonton. Weird. But regardless, incredible work, man!! I always enjoy your videos. Thank you.

Hi Without writing a novel here in the comment section, I would like to say that my experiences have been very similar to what you have described on this video. Same experience with a different or similar subject matter. You had me hooked at the labyrinth and the more you described, the greater my urge to say HI. You are the first person I have met to even have one experience like me, you described many. Like you, I struggled to find words to explain them. Mine started at 4. Right before I started kindergarten. At some point I began journalling my dreams etc and have been glad I did. Sometimes they were prophetic. I called my series of dreams in another place , my "soap opera" dreams, because the story continued each night as though I lived another life. Very detailed. When young, before sleep, i had a sensation of "swelling" . My hands would get huge, my "body" would become egg shaped and my sensations or sensory input would match the strange new shape. So much more to share, a novel worth. What is your dream life like now? Namasté 🦋🤍🦋

I wonder if it's an Edmonton thing because I also throughout my life have periodically had very strange and often frighteningly lifelike dreams that felt more like I was transported to a different reality than an actual dream. The most recent involved something that was a departure as it was basically like experiencing a Salvador Dali-like world that changed and morphed as I made decisions and traversed it, and with strange meta-cognitions such as that some people in my dream were not fully people (essentially NPCs), and that some beings that were not human at all (entirely robotic) were clairvoyant and I could communicate with them via clairvoyance and discern how many of their kind were in my proximity with what amounts to ESP.
