Hi Lozbritt! |
|
I have tried to WILD after 5 hours sleep the last 3 nights. I lay down once i have had a drink and bin to the toilet and lay dead still. I feel my body relax deeply and sometimes i feel really dizzy as if the bed spins and my muscles are all really relaxed, but this is as far as i can get. |

Hi Lozbritt! |
|
Yeah my heart does start to beat really fast, but how do i avoid this? I figured i might be focusing on my body too much, and i swallow loads as well like every breath i take i have to swallow it get's annoying, got any tips for that? |

The easiest way to avoid the fast-beating heart is getting used to the experience. It may take 5 or so tries, your heart should eventually calm down. I had a WILD hiatus for a few months a while ago, and when I restarted I got the fast beats again, they went away. |

I havent had a wild ever, so I dont have many tips for you, but I've got one. I don't think I read it here though, think it was on a site explaining how to meditate. They said, to avoid the swalloving, you should put your tongue up against the "roof" of your mouth sort of speak. I haven't tryed this myself, but I could work |

That can help the saliva from accumulating in your mouth. If your problem is saliva, keep your mouth open a bit, should happen if your face is relaxed anyway, and your mouth should dry up quickly. |

I have been trying WBTB plus WILD for about a week now without success. I think part of my problem might be fear, as a few years ago I had the experience of waking while my body was still in SP. As I've read, if you don't know what's going on it can be pretty scary, which it was for me. I had the classic sense of dread, and sensed the presence of evil, standing right in front of me. I thought I was experiencing my dealth. Needless to say, it totally freaked me out when I finally brought myself out of it. I've been hoping my new conscious knowledge of hypnogogic hallucinations will ease me into lucidity, but wonder if I'm unconsciously blocking because of my previous freak out. Also, I have sleep apnia, and must use a BiPap machine with a mask like thingie to keep my breathing regular. I've been using it now for years and have adjusted to the thing being on my face, but wonder if that too might be part of the problem. Any other apnia folks out there have any suggestions or thoughts? |
