Lorenzo over at Reality Seeds is a dedicated blogger on everything related to reality, beliefs, levels of consciousness, guiding laws, dreams, visualization, health and the law of attraction. He’s a technical consultant, born in Italy and started his blog two months ago. What I like most about his entries is that he takes a surprisingly scientific approach to the subject of how to create and manifest a reality to our own liking - a subject most controversial to purely rational thinkers.
This stands out mostly through his use of media and external resources that add a very welcome spice to his views on the subject. He has a great way of presenting mind map images that literally explain how the mind or the different levels of consciousness relate to each other and impact the way we co-create our experiences. The videos so far have been great additions touching upon the law of attraction, how to strongly focus on the positive intentions and also, how science is starting to lean toward an observer-creator collaboration in explaining reality and scientific laws.
The source of his inspiration is closest to that of Huna, a form of ancient Polynesian wisdom. He has started a glossary as well, where the definitions he use are easily accessible for the readers. Additionally he shares his most recommended resources in the form of books and DVDs that touch upon these subjects.
I urge you to join the blog now as it sums up to somewhat of a book of information that tells a story, dependant on previous understanding of what is written. So with 25 entries as of today you can easily align with all the intriguing knowledge and concepts he’s got to share. Some of the entries are quite long so it already packs quite a punch in reshaping the way you may think about reality.

Polyphasic Sleep, Day 13 January 13, 2007

I’ve kept myself very busy the last couple of days by tweaking the site with style sheets, ads, feeds and promotion. In fact, after my midnight nap I spent the whole night seeing through that I got my ideas implemented the way I envisioned them. It’s been a great learning process, but there’s plenty left to do. It’s a great feeling getting into that state of creativity where neither sleep nor hunger has a role until half a day has passed.
I ended up taking my inspirational influx even further by testing how long I could stay awake before getting sleepy. I lasted about 18-20 hours without napping and the following one was just a bit shy from an hour’s sleep. This is supposedly very difficult once you’ve fully adapted to systematic polyphasic sleep. I can’t say that I feel totally refreshed from the nap, but I’m still amazed at how well I can function with so little sleep. I may not be turning into a mutant anytime soon, but perhaps I should consider evolving some gills to my body as a following step. I still haven’t been able to brake the pattern of oversleeping every other day, but they’ve gradually gotten shorter, down to an hour.
Additionally, I’ve experienced more dreams lately. In one of them I found myself in a dark room with something evil provoking my mood, making the environment very uneasy to be in. I focused internally on some good thoughts and I managed to levitate upwards away from the room while hovering horizontally, face up. Everything got very bright and I thought to myself that if this is what I think it is, then some 4th dimensional character(s) should present themselves. I blinked my eyes, saw the contours of a being and then I snapped out of it.
I was then lying and shivering in bed in a most unnatural position, with my head down and feet in the air. It was quite an experience. Later on, I was biking up a large hill with a friend of mine to reach the town at the top. That’s when I again woke up and realized that I had experienced a dream within a dream. It was the most refreshing nap I’ve had so far, plus, it was the first one I woke up from before the alarm went off. It felt like hours though. And the 1-2 hour oversleep naps feel like full 8 hour’s rests. Final verdict for the time since my previous post is again a trifling 1.5.
