Whenever I try a WILD, I can get to sp. I go through the whole transition, I feel the tingling, and my body feels like it goes away, but then everything just stops. Everything is blank. I don't see anything, but I can't feel my body either. I hope someone can help.
Well there's one important question here: do you attempt WILD right at bedtime? Or do you sleep for 3.5–7 hours first? Because I've attempted WILD at bedtime before and got nowhere after laying there for 2 hours. I got to the SP transition like you, but it's almost impossible to get any further than this without waiting a very long time, because you will have to actually go through all your usual stages of pre-REM sleep (which can last up to 2 hours) before getting to REM. All dreams (90%) are formed in REM sleep.
If you ARE sleeping for 3.5–7 hours (or doing it in the afternoon timeslot), then please specify exactly what you do during the WILD before I offer some help.
I try too WILD right at bedtime.
lol bedtime.
but seriously i tried to WILD a couple times and i always get to the SP part but then its like i cant go further, but i have never tried it after a couple hours of sleep...i guess i should
Has anyone been able to go directly into a dream from sp?
I strongly suggest that you only attempt WILD after having had about 3.5 to 7 hours of regular sleep (set your alarm), because trying it at bedtime is nearly impossible, no matter whether you reach SP or not. I see in your signature that you have had success with WBTBs? Well when you do a WBTB, combine it with WILD.Quote:
