Thread: DEILD Tips

I have been trying DEILD lately and i was wondering if you could give me some tips and mabey some experiences. Like what do you do as soon as you wake up and your completely still. And please share your stories about it.

You then attempt to fall back to sleep, but stay a little bit mentally aware. It is a seriously shortened WILD. Remeber it is Dream Exit Induced. Just waking to an alarm is not enough. It should be an interuption of a dream. This gives the benifit of being inside an REM cycle. The disadvantage is it is very easy to fall back to sleep without staying aware.

When I experience DEILD I wake up but keep my eyes closed and try to move as little as possible. Often it happens when I wake briefly to change position because my hair is tickling me or hot on my neck.

DEILD seems to work best when I wake up after 7 to 8 hours of sleep but I'm still tired and comfy. At this point I have had enough rest so I don't fall asleep immediately but I am tired enough to be able to take my conscious state of dreaming back into the same dream or into a new one.

Yesterday I ruined a lucid dream because I became conscious enough to realize I was drooling on my arm and decided to move instead of going back to sleep. Being aware can sometimes have its drawbacks.
