I'm infamous for doing this to myself!

The Astral travel and Dreams course teaches us a lot about the astral and dreams/nightmares and the relation they have with the subconscious.

I am aware that they are related to the subconscious in many ways, but it is also a fact that eating too much right before you go to bed can do things like give you heartburn, which in turn can lead to nightmares. I can't remember the exact scientific or esoteric reason, but I know it has to do with lowering vibrations, which in turn can put you in the lower dimensions while you unconsciously project at night. I've experienced this many times until I found out this information, then I stopped eating late and didn't have nightmares for a long time... until recently, when my eating schedule has been messed up for various reasons.

Just apply a common sense, intuition, investigate what is right for you! Yes, subconscious leads us to eat too much (egos of gluttony), so work with it is always great and useful.

This is purely theoretical for me, but I read in one of Master Samael's books about how if you overeat it can have an affect on 'inferior' chakras in the abdomen. Then when you sleep this sends you into nightmares. To much better conscious sleep! :) David
