So, you are doing this in the middle of the night, or when you first go to bed? If when you first go to bed, I'd say that's probably what will happen because WILD's are rare at the beginning of the night. If in the middle of the night, then I'd say it just takes more practice. For me it was a gradual thing, where I got farther and farther each time I tried. I just posted this in another thread in the General Discussion section, but I'll repeat it below (it's my method). Sometimes even when I may be losing consciousness the body sensations I describe may pull me back just enough.
I use HI to lull me towards sleep, but when I feel like I'm losing consiousness I try not to focus on them so much and maintain conciousness by telling myself to relax or repeating things in my head like "I'm about to enter a dream." Then I try to concentrate more on how my body feels than on what I see.
I get some clues before vibrations and SP kick in - my mouth suddenly feeling like it has turned to a frown and/ or my whole body feeling like the muscles instantly changed in some way (paralyzed, but not quite). It's hard to describe, but it usually feels like my body has sunk an inch or two into the bed. After this the vibrations usually kick in.
When I feel vibrations and then my body is paralyzed I either get up or sink into my bed (figuratively in both cases, of course) and voila, I'm in an LD.
