Well, I don't really want to take supliments or anything. I don't think I understand what you're trying to say in your final paragraph.. What do you mean "after that you try to goto sleep to start a dream", if I try just going to sleep I'll lose conciousness... o_O |

Basically, when you lay down your mind wants your body to goto sleep. So you try to stay awake by counting / etc. |

Conquer I commonly run into that problem, the best way around it is to try to find something that works for you. |

Man I had this same problem. I used to monitor my body while trying to WILD, but that would always prevent me from falling asleep. |

As the pattern gets more intricate and subtle, being swept along is no longer enough.
ya i had that too. i would feel numbness come all over my body. my mind would be calm and relaxed while visualizing but for some reason my heart rate sky rockets. this of course keeps my body from falling sleep. |

Try imagining the movement of your dream body, visualisation or tactile sensations. |

This is kinda an old thread but I just checked it for some reason (still subscribed) and I noticed lots of new posts since my last. |

I have the exact same problem, Conquer. I get to the SP state, but then my heart rate feels like it doubles, then I feel like I can barely breathe, so I have to breathe a lot quicker. I eventually wake up sad and dissapointed. D: |

You shouldn't be lying there in SP for more than a few minutes at most. SP should be quickly followed/accompanied by HI. You're probably being too aware of your body while you're relaxing. Your mind should be in a heavily relaxed state. Whenever I get to SP, I don't actually feel my body. I know I'm in SP because it's accompanied by a change in awareness--instead of being sleepy and my consciousness fading, I'll suddenly feel aware. But I won't feel any sensations from my body, just a sort of heightened awareness. A few seconds later I get hit with a few waves of vibrations, and once they're over I can open my eyes in the dream. |

We were always dreaming of how it was going to be.
Longest chain of DEILDs: [5] WILD[X] DILD[X] DEILD[X] OBE[X] Fly[X] Bend elements[] Task of the Month/Year[] Hang out with real-life people[X] Summon a random DC[] Talk to a DC consciously[X] Find my dream guide[] Have complete control[] Realize that there is no spoon[]
And this because I love it:
My heart rate goes way up when I'm at this stage as well. Thats as far as I've gotten so it looks like we're at the same point in becoming lucid |

I would point out at WBTB advantage. I had tried WILD before sleep for years with similar result ( SP and fast heart rate ). Once I started to WILD during WBTB it worked almost immediately. After a couple of hours of sleep the body is naturally relaxed. Sometimes too much to be aware enough so some time staying awake is required... |

Woah guys, honestly? This is an almost 4 year old thread. Don't necropost. |
