You can definitely WILD during a nap. You should relax as much as possible and have no distracting noises coming into your room before you start. Wearing earplugs helps in case there's suddenly a car honking on the street or whatever. |

Last night I went to bed at 12 and woke up at 730 for work. I just got home and I'm about to take a nap. I was wondering if it was possible for me to WILD during my nap?I've read that afternoon naps are easier for using the WILD method |

We all live in a kind of continuous dream. When we wake, it is because something,
some event, some pinprick even, disturbs the edges of what we have taken as reality.

Have questions about lucid dreaming? DM me.
So why is it that I can't WILD before I go to bed? I need to wake up first then try it. How is a nap different? |

During the day, a few hours after you wake up, you're still in a REM cycle (the part of the sleeping cycle when you can dream). When you first get into bed, you're not in a REM cycle until you sleep for a few hours. |

It's not so much noise that you have to worry about as it is loud sudden noises. It's possible to WILD with noise going on around you; in fact, some people use it as an anchor. |

i did it!!!! i was lucid for about 5 seconds i was dreaming about my and my friends chasing each other around this girls house. but then i realized, "wait, im not supposed to be at this house!!" and i felt a feeling of euphoria rush through me and i tried riding a bike but it didnt last long. there was no dreamscene. it was just a cloud all around me |
|
Congrats. How long have you been practicing LDing? |
|
maybe 3 or 4 weeks? i tried the reality check method first but i could never do it in my dreams. so i switched to WILD and ive been trying that for about a week or two. |
|
That's cool. And how many LDs have you had so far? |
|
just that one 5 second one. it was awesome though!!! i just need more practice trying not to freak out when i get one |
|
Ehhhh that's a good question... I was really focused on trying to WILD but I already knew I was dreaming during the dream. But I told myself I was dreaming and that's when I felt euphoric. I got really excited and I think that was the beginning of my lucid dream. |
