Yes, humans may not be the fastest creatures, but one of the most enduring.

Umm. All my WILD attemps since 07 have been failures. And after looking through this tutorial, for the first time last night I got SP.

I didn't transition to a lucid dream though, don't know how, lol. But I will DEFINENTLY keep trying this "anchor" thing.

I also learned a lot from "Shadys" posts, I think a lot of people overlooked them.

very nice tutorial!!! I will try it tonight, thanks for taking the time to make it, it is very easy to understand whereas other tutorials often confuse me :)

nice, i think that this works perfectly...

I'll try this

So simple, you're utalising something that was right under my nose the whole tiem. Of course, what keeps your attenion despite all else and you don't even need willpower to keep concentrated to use it. Discomfort or pain!? Its so simple.

Most guides I see tell you to stay away from this, but in doing so your only drift into sleep faster, therefore leaving all the work of staying awake to your willpower. Very good tactic and very keen to try it, well thoguht of, A pat on the back!













EDIT-
Also as an afterthought I think will interest you guys.
Ok, bear with me here, but think of it like this.

Your mind and body fall asleep separately, your body is waiting for every signal that your mind is asleep. If you keep moving it obviously knows your not asleep. If it has no signs to show that your awake then it knows your asleep, then enters sleep paralysis, which then is a trigger for your mind to go into dream state. Regardless of whether your secretly awake or not.

If your body is sending out pain signals to your brain, its telling it "move your leg because its not comfortable enough". If you don't respond to it it knows you've gone to sleep, because if you were awake you'd obviously re-adjust your leg now wouldn't you? So it would go into sleep paralysis quicker, therefore allowing you to enter dream state.

AWESOME! I was one of the people clouded with false info about WILD. Thank you for this great tutorial BillyBob.

thanks for the tutorial, finally one taht doesnt rant on about hynogenic imagery and crap like that

Just bumping the best WILD guide on the site.

Many, many thanks for your tutorial. You're totally right about people overcomplicating things. I had heard the term "WILD" thrown around before but it was always associated with a huge block of text. Now that I understand the basic idea of it, I can see how I inadvertently have been using WILD whenever I've been lucid dreaming. Now I just need to figure out a good anchor. I think I'll try gripping my ear plug container tightly.

I never knew i was doing this completely wrong! thanks for pointing out im an idiot!
I gotta try this tonight, thanks very much for the tutorial

Didnt work last night, simply due to the fact I had trouble sleeping (both from trying to go to sleep and after i woke up 6 hours later)
I dont beleive I was too hyped for this, I felt I was pretty tired and I thought of other crap before I fell asleep. Must have had too much sugar X D

:bowdown: ALL HAIL BILLYBOB! :bowdown: I've GOT to try this!

After reading this, I tried the pain anchor a couple times, but I still just end up falling asleep. I sleep on my stomach, so I put my hand under my chest and bent my finger to where is was poking my sternum. Gradually the pain got less and less intense until I completely forgot about it and fell asleep unconsciously. When I woke up I had a bruise on my sternum, so I definitely don't want to amp up the intensity of the pain. Oh well, I'll just try a different anchor. I got pretty close with counting before, but I like to experiment with different stuff to see what works best.

By the way, thanks for this tutorial!

I'm brand new to this site, and I tryed your tutorial last night for the first time, ever experimenting with lucid dreaming.
I was able to become conscious in mid dream probably the third dream i remember from that night.
I was in a room i'd never seen, with a cat/rat creature i was having a casual conversation with. Then out of nowhere, I said in my dream "I'm dreaming" then the rat creature rapidly turned his head towards me and said "game over". Then i woke up.
I thought i was supposed to wake up from getting excited. Is it normal for my subconscious images/creatures or whatever, to intentionally wake me up somehow? or did I really just wake up from being excited and thats all it was. Just wondering.

Im interested in WILD but i think im going to stick with DEILD

DEILDs are WILDs. The same rules apply.

Not in my opinion. DEILD is much easier for me

You opinion doesn't matter in this.

There're only two kinds of LDs: DILDs and WILDs. Everything else belongs to a subset of those.

DEILDs fall under the WILD category. As such, they are WILDs by definition, no matter how easy they may be.

That's a good thing, you see, as it means DEILDs can benefit from anything WILDs benefit from.

So you'd be wise to learn all you can about WILD, as all that information can be applied to DEILD.

It's nothing personal, but opinion means nothing when dealing with cold, hard facts. If I were to insist the world was flat because I had always walked on level ground my entire life, would that make me right?

I dont know if any one has pointed this out but when I was reading it and read that humans have a hard time falling asleep while waiting for something, example a rabbit:); this made me think off all the times durring a big day that I would stay up almost all night because I was to exccited to sleep waiting for the event. Maybe realizing this will help me fall asleep next time it happens.

Ok, so I tried this this morning but after about a half hour I gave up because I noticed I was waiting for something. I think the problem is I'm still afraid that if I just let myself fall asleep, I'll lose awareness, so how do I keep the pain in my mind without letting it be my focus? Like, how much focus do I give it? And how do I keep from attaching everything I know about WILDing with what I'm doing? In other words, if I'm going through the process, I'm already thinking about it because I'm doing it. Any clarity would be appreciated. Thanks.

this answers alot of questions, very useful tips specially the falling to sleep part

Thank you for posting, I will give this a try tonight.

Same Here.
