      Lightbulb IMILD - Imagination Initiated Lucid Dreaming

      You might be wondering if their are any new LD techniques, and last night I tried this and it worked!

      What it is.
      IMILD is Imagination Initiated Lucid Dreaming. This is a lot like VILD, but more improved because you can do this anytime and to go back into a dream during the night. Last night, I woke up at the end of my REM cycle (eh, 2 or 3) and I tried WILD. Nothing happened, so I woke up again during the morning (eh, no one upstairs, probably 7-8) and I was like "I wish I had a way to redo that" so I tried to do WILD, but I got off track because earlier I had this dream that I wanted to go back into. I thought of that dream, and because I opened my eyes once and never moved, I fell back asleep in less then a minute. I drifted, with my consciousness, back into that dream and I became Lucid.

      Now that I just told you how I got the idea and what it is, lets start the tutorial.

      1) I did this in the morning, a couple hours before the end of my REM period. I would suggest trying this the same time too, or just try to do it anytime during the night and tell me what happened. :3
      2) Think of a random scene or any dream. Keep thinking about it, and remember when you wake up don't move or open your eyes. It hinders your progress. You will find yourself falling asleep fast, so keep thinking about that scene.
      3) Theirs a slim chance that you will go into a normal dream, or bring your consciousness into a dream that you did not form. If you got the latter (the last) then thats great, maybe not what you wanted, but great. If you go into a normal dream, just try again once you wake up from that.
      4) THIS CAN BE REPEATED Yep, I did this 4 times in a row. Just keep repeating steps 1 and 2 when you wake up from the last.


      Please, guys. When you try this, tell me if it worked and how it has affected your LDing experience. If you have any suggestions to add to this, tell me. No idea is a bad one,

      It's not a bad technique. But how is it different from DEILD?

      "(...) idea of falling asleep consciously. This involves retaining con-sciousness while wakefulness is lost and allows direct entry into the lucid dream state without any loss of re-flective consciousness. The basic idea has many varia-tions. While falling asleep, you can focus on hypnagogic (sleep onset) imagery, deliberate visualizations, your breath or heartbeat, the sensations in your body, your sense of self, and so on. If you keep the mind sufficiently active while the tendency to enter REM sleep is strong, you feel your body fall asleep, but you, that is to say, your consciousness, remains awake. The next thing you know, you will find yourself in the dream world, fully lucid.(...)"

      Great it works for you. It also needs a powerful mindset so you can realize that you are waking from a dream when you are. A little tricky, but easier than classic WILD!

      I fill my heart with fire, with passion, passion for what makes me nostalgic. A unique perspective fuels my fire, makes me discover new passions, more nostalgia. I love it.
