I was able to make SSILD a WILD technique last night, which led to a tiny lucid moment and a non lucid WILD moment.

After 4.75 hours sleep, I found a supine position and began the rapid cycles. Then I moved to the slow cycles, just until I began falling asleep. Then I moved to a lateral position, my normal sleeping position and began the rapid cycles again until I was asleep.
This led right into the dream state. I remember because I woke up a little afterwards. Later on I realized I was dreaming. So, it was a success. I think it is a powerful technique this way because it has a priming effect: it tends to cause me to have LD's later in the morning. So to be able to WILD with SSILD without having to change techniques makes it much easier to do when I'm drifting off and don't have much mental focus left to WILD in the traditional sense.
