I've been using the FILD technique to obtain lucidity, but have only had but so much luck. The scenario plays out like this: I set up my night stand (Juice, Dj, etc.), then I lay down get into a state of complete relaxation, and start tapping my fingers (not too hard; just enough to "wiggle the keys on your key board"). After a while, I can feel my eyes start to bounce around in my head, and I start seeing some random pictures (stairs, walkways, hallways, dirt paths, etc.) and then, I start thinking "Here it is! I'm getting closer!" then I guess the excitement wakes me up... I repeat this process numerouse times, then eventually find myself waking up. I try not to think about it when I start to cross over, but I can't help it. *shrugs* Any ideads?
