This technique is just far too intriguing! I have never been able to WILD, and still have not, however i did try this technique this afternoon. Total elapsed time was 25 minutes.

I used reverse blinking until my eyes wouldn't open anymore.

I felt my body twitch "involuntarily" like i was going into SP. I have never experienced this before.

Every time i found myself regain conciousness even a little too much, i just used reverse blinking again, and bam, before too long my eyes were too heavy to open again.

My mind did drift somewhat, but i also had some HI.

I am convinced that if i had kept at it for a longer period of time i would have achieved my first WILD, however i did have time constraints.

Too cool. I have read on the Lucid Crossroads website that the WILD technique is like the holy grail of lucid dreaming and i am incredibly eager to experience it first hand. I think the best analogy for reverse blinking is that it's like falling asleep in front of a TV. Your eyes only open for a second at a time, and you keep going back into a deeper state of relaxation/sleep. We've all been there before. I will continue to try this technique and report back to this thread, as i am quite sure we're on to something here. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!!! Good luck everyone......
