Thread: Trouble getting back to sleep after only 4.5h of sleep

I have the same problem! Since I started trying to get lucid dreams (with the MILD method) two weeks ago, in about half of my nights I find myself unable to sleep again after having woken up. I sleep like four or five hours these nights. Yet, I don’t even do the MILD visualisation and auto-suggestion when I am laying in bed, I do it before going to bed, as I know I have a hard time sleeping and that going to bed with an intent will make me unable to sleep.

Thank you Vile, I will try that.

EDIT : Tried it this night, didn’t work. After having woken up, I spent a while trying to sleep normally, then I got up, went to toilet and spent 10 minutes reading, and went back to bed without pillow. I eventually put back the pillow under my head. I spent one hour and a half without managing to sleep.
