Ever since I've began LDing, I'll suddenly become aware at different times during the sleep cycle. Last night, for instance, I was thinking about burning a CD, when suddenly my thoughts jumped to backyard ring toss. My concious mind actually cut in and said "Ha. How random. That makes no sense. What stage of sleep am I in now?" These sporadic instances are the closest I've come to WILDing.
Sometimes, I'll be in darkness, not thinking about anything in particular, and definetely not thinking about anything bodily. Suddenly, I'll hear a noise, or see a picture, and it will explode into a dream scene. Once, it was a paper rustling noise, and suddenly I was taking some sort of test at a desk. Another time, I heard a banging noise, then my sister appeared banging pots and pans in my living room. These are the only dream transitions I can remember (in both cases, I was lucid from the start).
You need to forget about your body altogether. But the key is, don't just forget about your body. Doublethink. Forget that you're supposed to forget about your body. As in, concentrating on forgeting about your body will be counterproductive.
