I have a rather strange technique for WILDs. Everything I've read here says you have to get up and do something before attempting it, else you'll fall back into sleep without realizing it. I've never found this to be the case; I simply shut off my alarm and close my eyes and just think repeatedly about "relaxing." Sooner or later (usually sooner), I get this detatched feeling from my body. It's cool, it feels like all I have is my mind, no connection to my body. I guess this is the SP stage, but I don't know, because I can always move my body if I actually try, I've never felt "paralyzed," just sorta a completely detatched feeling from my body. At this point, I think, "All right, if I just relax and stay calm, I'll be in an LD." Then vibrations will start, and for me this feels like a weird type of intense pressure in my head along with ringing in my ears. Sometimes my teeth will feel clenched. Then after, oh, 10-15 seconds, I usually get some HI, such as sliding off my bed, strange noises, or (rarely) weird light patterns. Then all this stops, and I know I'm in the dream, so I open my eyes. Ta-da. I've used it to great effect, I once had 4 WILDs in a night.
Now if I could only stabilize them every time without something scary/weird waking me up before I can...
