As I had my first DILD two days ago, I have been studying lucid dreams diligently. I learned what a WILD was, and I desired to experience one. About an hour ago, I layed down in my bed, became comfortable in a position (flat on my back, hands palm down against the bed at my side, head slightly tilted back) and made my attempt at a WILD. After struggling not to swallow my built up saliva, giving in once or twice, I began to feel numb and began to feel distracted. I was counting my breaths slowly in my head, starting from one if I lost count. At some points, I wanted to perform a reality check because I could have sworn my bed was being swayed by the wind I could hear blowing outside. I resisted this urge and layed motionless. I then felt like my feeling of existence was entirely gone I eventually saw a bright, yellowish-white aura take over my entire line of vision. After this, I felt a strong, solid vibration and it felt like I fell hard onto my back. Once I felt this, my eyes opened widely and my body shivered hard, breaking my trance. Did I do anything correctly/wrong? Was my experience unique? What could I have done to get past the white aura and why exactly did I crash out of this trance?
