So I read a lot of people's experiences and the usual problem is losing focus. Some say to count but others say not to because it keeps you too awake. But I was under the impression that your mind could be as awake as it ever was just as long as you don't move your body. Like no matter what your mind was doing, if your body was "asleep" (meaning successfully not moving) then your brain would fall asleep almost immediately. |

You almost have the right idea. I would not say that you can think anything while not moving and slip into a dream instantly, since it is not very hard to wake up without moving and remaining awake, if you wanted to. However, not moving is a key part to these techniques since you can enter the dream almost instantly from them. The key is to let your mind slip back into the dream like you never woke up, and certain things that wake you up too much will make the attempt fail. As for counting, I never count, and if I do I am unsuccessful (for FILD, I dont usually DEILD). Moving your fingers should act as an anchor to do a reality check, and counting is an unnecessary way to keep your mind too focused to fall into a dream. Usually what I do is wait around 20 seconds, without counting, and just estimate the time. That way you remember to check but in between you drift off into sleep while your mind is not focused on one thing. |

In WILD you sort of trick your body into thinking that you have fallen asleep and go into sleep paralysis and so on, and are able to enter the dream from there. |

You want to barely focus on your fingers. Basically tell yourself that after 20 seconds your are going to do a RC. Don't count to 20 seconds in your head. Your mind may drift off but that is okay. After what feels about 20 seconds do an RC and you will probably be dreaming! |
