Clarification on Recommended Frequency of Phase Entering Techniques

[Th3TruthizInThere]

In the SOBT Guidebook, it is stated to not practice indirect techniques more than 3 days a week. I have some questions about this. First, there is really only one day that I can sleep in, and I might be able to take a nap on another day. I want to take advantage of the full three days. I get up at 5 am for work every morning, and try to go to bed at 9:30 or 10 pm. With a schedule like this, how can I maximize phase entry and take advantage of 3 days a week still. Also, if I am able to become lucid in a dream, does that count as one of the 3 days in a week, or is it specifically only indirect and/or direct techniques that are of concern?
