Almost DEILD?

So I was dreaming and then I woke up, I wasn't moving or opening my eyes I just layed there and tried to remember my dream. I felt my hands and body getting heavy and my fingers were tingly. My chest started getting heavy and I thought "great, I'm entering sleep paralysis!" I was excited. My eyes were closed the whole time trying to see the dream. But my dad woke me up and I could move just a little bit for a second and I had control. My eyesight was blurry and it went back to normal

As my eyes were blurry I did a RC to see if I was dreaming, I wasn't

I dont know, but i have never gotten as far as getting this close to sleep paralysis :D

Guys, guys, guys...

Getting into SP is not the goal. In fact, you will not get into SP, untill you fall asleep and dream. By then, if you notice SP, you will be so far gone, you will not give a hoot about if you in SP or not. Because by then, you will be in a Lucid dream. THAT is the goal. To fall asleep at the same time when dream is ready for you.

All the sensations you felt, are not SP. Getting heavy, tingling, ... those are simply sensations of our body shutting down.

So the correct thought would be "great, I'm entering LD". But don't get too excited, just observe passively. Good luck:alien:

So if he hadn't woken me up, and I just kept laying there I would've entered the lucid dream?

It's very possible.

That's cool :)

man the same thing happened last night only i didn't even get close. my DEILD timer went off and i realized that i remembered not to move so i was quite happy and decided to try DEILD (i forgot to remember my dream though) but my mom was up and she had the radio on in her room and her door was open. i was so distracted by this i felt i couldn't DEILD so i just decided to go to sleep normally. maybe tonight i will try again and hopefully it will be quieter.

How do you tell if your legs are paralyzed?

I don't know, They just feel different or something and I don't want to move them so.. Yeh.

DEILDs are cool, I've had about two chains of four each. It was kind of by accident though, as I wasn't actively trying to DEILD.

Good luck on DEILDing guys! (^_^)b
