What gives?
I just woke up from and LD using this technique. The key is and I cannot stress this enough is that you must be really tired when you wake up during your brief awakening Sometime you wake up during it and you feel really awake, good luck with that type of brief awakening, it just wont work.
You'll usually have these really tired brief awakenings later in the night. Roughly 6+ hours after you first gone to sleep.
The Second part is the visualization, and yes I know what you mean about how during a brief awakening it feels impossible to visualize. The reason is your doing it with the wrong mind set
Its kind of hard for me to explain, but Your visualization should require no effort at all like your imagery you see when you first go to bed at night.Don't struggle and put all your mental powers and concentration in visualization, it will only keep you awake.
Its kind of hard to explain but you got to effortlessly visualize as if theres no pressure on you. Its ironic the harder you try and visualize, the more likely it wont work.
This is why I recommend visualizing somewhere your really familiar with
THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT: You should visualize with your mind and not your eye! The reason visualizing seems so hard is your still trying to visualize with your eye (not in the literal sense). What I mean is when you visualize walking around don't do it from your eyes perspective, do it from your minds perspective.
