it took me a couple weeks to have my first WILD but it was worth it. It was incredibly vivid and lengthy, and my level of awareness was really high.

have you ever tried WILD'ing during a daytime nap? I did the other day and made a smooth transition into a lucid. Unfortunately it ended way to soon, and was followed by three or four different non-lucid dreams. When I woke up I was surprised that all that had happened in about thirty minutes.
