Labarge made an acronym for the two different approaches and only his ways, which is not one, but multiple ways of inducing lucidity the right way? Some of the methods and the ones he learned from others use visualization and etc so this misunderstanding of Laberges acronyms should wither quick. There isn't a base technique but there are base senses we use to help. Visualizations, smell, hearing, and use of tactile sensations.
Differ your acronyms from how to ld, to classification of inducing an ld. The how is what we share here. Else, lets all just call our methods WILD so noone can know the difference between how we exactly acheive LDs. Yea, along with that, lets just not take credit for what we're sharing, smart idea.
If your understanding of things are slow like spaceexplorer, then let me sum it in a quick metaphor.
There are different ways of entering a pool. There is jumping, backflipping, slipping into, and many other ways, but every way puts you in the pool.
And did you just compared this to a VILD...oh boy... Anyways, here is a quote from Arby, the creator of the fantastic Vild tutorial, appreciating my method too->
"Aha, Malac. You seem to have done well this time.
I'll be honest... someone told me you had another tech and I got my skeptic pad out and looked to see what it was all about. I was very happy to find a quite logical and helpful v-wild tech/supplement. I give this the arby official stamp of approval... whatever that means anymore around here XD
Also, no (well almost no) 100%/superiority dressings so I give you another for that. Welcome to the trustable technique community, malac. =)
I leaned back, stepped through this and got a vivid rainforest (grabbed a big fern leaf) and it worked pretty well but I didn't like the pause after you grab the leaf and look around. It is a chance for instability when the visualization might not have fully stableized/matured yet. Thus I present a twist I played with. Instead I grabbed an interactable object and used it. In my case, I grabbed a stick off the ground and started to hit the things closest to me with it. Kept me occupied longer and led up a little plot (whacked an animal etc... not gonna get into all that XD)."
