Okay so this morning (at about 3:30 A.M. Eastern), I began my first attempt at a WILD. I recently began trying this, because I became so fascinated with the Idea of Lucid Dreaming. I have nothing in my Dream Journal, because ever since I became excited with this being possible it seems my recall has vanished. But when I was not focused on LD's, my recall was very vivid. Anyway, I plan on trying to WILD again this coming morning. Except I have a problem, I do not think I can enter Sleep Paraylsis. Last morning, when my alarm woke me up to start the WILD process, I got out of bed and went to the bathroom. Only a night light was on and I was moving very slowly. I then grabbed a glass of water and hopped back into bed.

This, is where my WILD experience began. I started to count my breaths to relax myself. I got to 100 and by then my whole body was numb. However, I had no HI and it did not feel like I was falling into a deeper sleep. I eventually got tired altered position and went to bed. Was I doing something wrong?
