Thread: DEILD - Dream Exit Initiated Lucid Dream

Once I can DILD at will using MILD/V-MILD techniques, I'm going to advance to this method...

I accidentally did it more or less once, and it was that lucid dream that forever sparked my interest... it was fricking epic.

I remember myself waking up after some dreams which is perfect since that is a requirement, my question is why do you need to have recall for this. I understand that to remember the lucid you need to have good recall, but to preform the technique why is dream recall needed.

Not sure yet. Ill let you know

I once did this without knowing, I woke up and for some reason I wanted to return to my dream even though my dream was about school. I returned however I was unfortunately Lucid for like 3 seconds before the dream took over. I also remember opening my eyes before re-entering the dream.

I had one sucessful attempt with deild, but I´m not sire if I understand the conceipt of chaining... I didn´t find a tutorial or post about this specific topic. I will gladly thank anyone who could explain to me how it is done?

How it is possible to chain LD´s if after one full night rest my mind wants to stay more and more alert? Or maybe its best to use this conceipt during the night? I tried to chain a LD but when I felt I was back looking to the blackness, I was feeling to alert to dream again...

I'm thinking about trying to induce a DEILD starting tonight. Any experienced DEILD-ers have any helpful advice?

I used to have about 20 lucid dreams when I would nap this way. However, I've discovered better methods that allow me to extend my lucid dreams to last as long as I want...so I usually only have to re-enter 2 or 3 times now.

The only downfall I've found about this...is that...I typically only remember the last several LDs that I had and the first few are lost.

So...there have been times when I have had such amazing LD that I have chosen not to re-enter...because I wanted to remember it and write it down.

Can you please tell me how you managed to make your dreams longer? It would help alot. Thanks.

just a question on mantras:
'Step Three: Seems hard, I'll need to teach myself to stay still!
-It is actually not hard at all, with some autosuggestion. This will teach yourself to remember when you wake'

which auto suggestion mantra should one use?
'I'm dreaming' ?

WOW! i did this technique about a month ago and its really awesome! i didn't even know what to call it. had about 4 or 5 lucid dreams in a row.. but i kept exiting the dream after becoming lucid. then i finally had one of the longest and most controlled lucid dream i've ever had. very effective method if you can manage to keep your eyes closed when you wake up. also cool to see dream landscapes and characters all melt into what i call the "black room". which is basically staring at the backs of your eyelids when you exit a dream.

gah I want to freakin DEILD already!!!!!!

Is it okay if your eyes open for maybe 4 seconds?

I have this alarm clock that auto shuts off after 10 seconds, and my eyes always go open for 2 seconds at least. But i don't move.

So will DEILD work if your eyes open for a bit?

Over the summer, I also unconsciously did this technique,I must say, this is one of the BEST ways to induce a lucid dream.
I had the most number of lucid dreams in that month, but now,I've forgotten to do it, slowly I lost my ability to go through after SP,
But I'll try this again. thanks.. and yay! Now I know what this technique's called!

i would say it probably will work. but i never use an alarm clock. unless i HAVE to wake up in the morning. I usually DEILD naturally? its strange the way it works. i usually wake up after a dream around 5am and then I can start attempting DEILD or dream chaining. is really cool..

your body is basically ready to go back to sleep for probably about half an hour after you wake up. so opening your eyes for a few seconds, and even moving just a little bit probably won't hurt, but i'd say its best if you don't move at all and if you keep your eyes closed, the experience is well... really cool to see the dream fade away, and then think of a new dream scenario and then watch it start happening. and sometimes i sort of just let myself drift off to sleep again with the intent of having a LD and then i do.. almost immediately. just cling to a tiny bit of awareness or keep the intent of LDing with you when you start the dream chain.

In my lucid dream this morning, I was in my room and as the dream started to fade out, i grabbed the doorknob tightly. Sure enough, as i returned to my physical body, i could still feel the doorknob. I layed there for a few minutes hoping to return to another dream but nothing, i just stared into the blackness and eventually i gave up. Anyone know what i could have done to make it work?

I almost did a DEILD. first I woke up didnt open my eyes and didnt move and after about 4 sec the SP started kicking in but i woke out of it on purpose because i was shocked at what it felt like and i read this thread before so I already knew that it shouldnt be scary but it was just so sudden and it felt weird but i'll probably go through with it tonight since now i know what to expect but if i dont i'll definitely do it this weekend!!!

ps: about the part where you imagine things can i imagine something like me rubbing a texture or do I have to imagine a full blown dream scene. this is if i cant remember the last dream i had

I just realised that I've been doing this technique partially when I was a kid.
I would just attain incredibly high levels of lucidity and vividness in the dream, but since I didn't know about lucid dreaming and dream control, the dream started to fade very quickly.
However as I would wake up I realised that I could re-enter the dream if I had not move too much. Indeed, I would re-enter the dream, except without lucidity.

Should try the real technique someday.

i woke up just after dream and stayed still.......but nothing happened....no sp

I lobe using this technique. It's always worked great.

Bah! So close last night. I woke up with my eyes closed just fine, but I was in the strangest position....very uncomfortable and had to move .

finally got a DEILD.....I chained a dream too...
I want to get these more often Dx

I seem to have good luck. After reading qute a bit on DEILDs I decided it might be worth a shot. Of course, I then remembered that I never seem to be aware of the awake phase after a dream, so I gave up. Well anyway, I was asleep last night with no intention of waking up, but then an odd thing happened; the dream ended, leaving me with the image of a series spiraling grey and black blob in my mind. I then realized that I had indeed woken up and was experiencing the transitional phase. However, the SP that I felt was so massive and abrupt that I woke myself up. (It wasn't a false awakening; I tried an RC.)

how to configure brain bullet for dield.......?
and exactly what affirmations do you choose......?

Didn't use any software or anything, just autosuggestion. Good ol' subconcious doin' what I tell it to do.

Repeating these words all day:

I am going to wake up after each dream, without opening my eyes.

Hope I'll get a LD tonight, thanks for the great tutorial
