^ I though I was the only one.

What you can do to better afford WBTB is keep them nice and short. Still works well if you want to engage a direct technique and even if not... I still believe in the great value of just getting up, going to the toilet and coming back in a couple of minutes. It's still a spike of awakefulness in your night's sleep.

Some awareness exercises in your WBTB aiming to build focus while simultaneously relaxing you back into sleep are also a good consideration to take. I was just gonna say meditation but that might not be your thing, there are other alternatives.

You will suceed, just relax, have fun and learn to enjoy as much of the way there as possible! From a certain point foward almost every dream is a potential source of satisfaction if we care to pay attention enough to what was going on while we were simply in our beds doing nothing... Nothing!
