      I Don't Get Hypnagogic Imagery

      Many techniques like WILD talk about how the Hypnagogic imagery starts to appear as you relax, then by using the technique, it will slowly solidifies, and if you do it just right you can slip into a lucid. I know this is a very simplified explanation, but I do understand the techniques themselves, but the problem is that when i relax, I get loads of sensations. Tinglings, heaviness, etc. etc., but there are never any sounds or images. How do I perform these techniques if I do not experience any images?

      Oh, I thought it started earlier, my bad. I know what your talking about though. I have gotten to feeling vibrations and blood pumping, but not past it, as I gave up after a while of this. I was under the impression HI started earlier, but in that case I just need to relax that extra bit...

      Hypnogagic can take place during any relaxation phase prior to sleep. I've laid down for less than a couple of minutes and saw some of the clearest images I've ever seen. It was clear as any dream but I wasnt asleep yet. There were no vibrations, no sleep paralysis all I did was close my eyes. Usually it happens as soon as i close my eyes but everyone is different.

      Cheers!

      I tried it yesterday... Damn those sensations are freaky, Too bad I didn't do it the whole way, I had no dream that night But the thing is you just have to relax and don't think at all about all those sensation, by focusing on them you'll lose the goal you had set in mind, that is, to become lucid. Just relax and concentrate on your breathing the whole time. I realise that it is when I stop thinking completely for a second that I felt those sensation, if I could have gone with it I could have had a lucid dream last night...

      HI makes me nauseated.

      It feels like I'm running through a grayish purple tunnel.
      What I hold in my two hands is enough to set me free.
