Shifting from SP to dream

**Woogie9593** · 07-03-2012 10:42 AM

Alright, so I have been trying for several months now and I've only had a few successful attempts in which I only reached sleep paralysis. I normally tend to feel a heaviness, muscles twitching all over my body and a lot of pressure in my head along with my body heating up. I've read about how to shift Into your dream using techniques like mentally rolling out of bed, but I haven't had any success with them. My question is, how do you personally know when your ready to shift Into your dream and how do you execute it? Thanks

Just close your eyes and imagine the dream environment you want to find yourself in.

After a while just open your eyes, you should be in the dream already. It's not that confusing as it might seem... the only trick is to know when to open your eyes... Oh and you might find yourself at a different place too.. or just basically laying in the same way as you do in real life... But yeah...

Just as Zoe said, imagine your dream and picture yourself in it. For many people, once they feel the vibrations and twitches of sp have left, they open their eyes, reality check, and find out they're dreaming.

Visualize, visualize, visualize! Did I mention visualize?

I've had the same issue, I will next time try visualizing. Someone once told me to 'roll' off the bed, and I'll land in a dream! But I'm worried I'll really roll off the bed an hurt mydelf

I have tried a few times to 'sit up' and get out of bed, and that worked! But it's confusing because I'm in my bedroom, and it feels too real. I'd much rather just be in a dream.

I have a similar problem as well... I try to stay as conscious and awake as possible... but I end up lost in a dream... unconscious...

You can find explanation and solution to this in Sageous's WILD class.

Do you WILD at WBTB? You could be falling asleep, if you WILD without prior sleep, or if you don't stay up long enough at WBTB. Feel free to ask or to PM, if there is anything you need help with.
