Ok, so I just found this thread, and one of the key things I've been using apparently is actually from this guy on youtube, despite the fact that I read it here on dreamviews. And that is the idea that the mind and body are seperate and that the body tries to see if the mind is awake or not. I have used this technique to successfully complete a WILD before, but since it hasn't happened again, I've been wondering if it was just luck. So maybe it was. My question then is how do you enter sleep paralysis and how awake are you supposed to keep your mind. I always adjust my consciousness to get lower if I feel I'll never get relaxed enouygh for my body to sleep, but I just end up falling asleep. Help would be appreciated. And thanks for the warning, it's very important imho.
