Thread: Just ruined my first WILD, what can I do better next time?

Hey

I just had my very first experiance of a WILD! You can read about the whole night in my Dream Journal, but here is the gist of it

I try to do another Wild, lying on my side, just concentrating half on my breathing, half on being aware of where my body is. I keep this up for a few minutes, and my head slowly slides THROUGH the pillow, its only half way through before I realise "holy shit, i'm going to have a WILD!" but this of course made me excited, and brought be back to waking. I made a few attempts to go back to the same state, but the excitment must of woken me up just enough to not let me get back to sleep again.

So I was wondering if anyone had any advice to go from here? The technique seems to work for me, the difficulty in stopping from being excited about it. Would this be a common occurance for a first time WILD'er? (and only ever had one, possibly two LD's (Knowing I was dreaming, but no control), and even they were over a year ago)

I also think I may have tried to more activley go along with the movement through the pillow, instead of letting myself go naturally, would this be a bad thing to do?

Thanks for reading, and any advice you can give me

I'd love to be able to try this again tonight!
