Thread: A problem going from SP to a LD

ah clever! thanks again! oh but i guess i have 2 last questions. 1) if i just wait there long enuf, will a LD eventually hit me? and 2) how long does it usually take before i enter an LD?

1) Most likely, but there are a lot of factors (outside noises, etc.) that could prevent you from reaching the dream state. What time do you usually try to WILD?

2) This can vary. Some nights you may enter a lucid dream within a few seconds, while other nights you may be lying in SP for nearly half an hour. I'm not really sure which factors affect how long it takes, but I have found that it's best to be pretty sleepy still for it to progress more quickly.

i have the same problem as BadZephyr. Its easy to get into sp but once i get there a lucid dream never forms.

i use it with WBTB. i get up at around 5:50, take the dogs out, take a leak, and go back to bed

Do you think that it wakes you up too much? It can be difficult to enter the dream state if your mind is too active.

if u are to awake i wud try staying up for about 15 minutes before trying, but keeping the lights off.
