I am very happy with myself this morning! However, *holds head with headache* I am wiped out. I have been trying WILD since 7:30. I have tried it three times. Each time I am learning more of my patterns of falling asleep and observing what is taking place.

This morning, after 4 hours of sleep, I laid back down and relaxed myself. I tend to daydream to help ease my mind. Soon, my mind starts to wonder and bring up images of the day or thoughts jumping about. I then bring myself back into consciousness. When I do, I noticed my breathing was fast like hyperventaliating. My eyes were moving rapid. And my body was felt like floating, paralyzed, pins and needles. I felt going under. However...I fought it! I fought it for two reasons:

1.) These were the same symptoms of hypnosis. I used to try to hypnotize myself several times in the past and follow a similar pattern as you enter subconsciousness. However, I get scared of going under and pull out.

2.) I thought I had to stay conscious as my body went under.

As I forced myself to stay conscious, telling myself "Here we go. Stay with it. Stay alert" and becoming aware of my phsyical body, I woke up!!! ARGGHHH.

Was I supposed to fall under? But then I would let myself go consciously and fall asleep. I don't get it. Can someone help. Thanks so much!
