I have trouble focusing when I attempt WILD, so while I was sitting and thinking earlier today i decided that i needed an 'idea' that i could concentrate on that hopefully wouldn't just fizzle out. When i try and repeat mantras to myself it works for a few times then my mind wanders. To counter this i thought, "What if i had something that didn't have a specific start/finish". Then i came up with my crazy WILD technique:

Once you have relaxed fully and are begining to 'fall asleep' start singing (in your head) the Lambchops song - "This is the song that never ends". Because this song doesn't really have a begining or ending i figure it will be easier to concentrate on and i won't be finishing one line of a mantra and repeating it, but more like a circular pattern where the end of one section is the start of another, thus you can loop around the song till you reach HI or SP of whatever.

I have also came up with a name for this variation of the WILD tech, just in case it does actually work. The L.A. WILD (pronounced: el aye wild) short for Lambchops Assisted Wake Induced Lucid Dream.

If anyone else wants to give it a shot I'd be grateful for feedback to see if this does help others to concentrate, so that they don't fall asleep. If you don't know the song i could post the words but you kinda need the tune for it to be completely effective...

With the amount of LD's I'm having at the moment I'll try anything. Best of luck,
