Often when you are going through the transition from a wakeful state you consciously react to physical stimuli. When you started to realize your rapid heart beat, you may have unconsciously snapped yourself out of the zone, if you will.
But that is normal. And all of the experiences you were having certainly point to that transitional phase.
That is ,for the most part, the hardest part. Letting it flow.
Yeah I totally have the same problem, VD :) I think as ya try it more, you can ignore the physical changes, as Howetzer says, and begin to flow :D
yep, and i also find it easier to WILD before having any sleep at all, i have read that this is possible but have any of you ever done this?
by the way i have never actually succeeded with a WILD but i have attempted it twice, i find it hard after sleep because even after wakin myself up, i just end up asleep.
I think i've read about people WILDing in their daily naps regularly, but then again, it might not be a WILD :o
Well last night i got to transition with no sleep, but i lost concentration :mad:
Hey vivid dreamer how come you havent been replyin to any of the posts ive sent you?
Hi sleeper boy. I just noticed you were new ! _--WELCOME! :D
Because WILD is "wake" initiated, it usually does take a more active participation from your waking state of mind. This is why naps or waking up for a period of time helps. These actions engage the consciousness and it becomes more readily available to connect to from a dream state.
