Nice, you watched Nick newport. That idiot doesnt know anything about lucid dreaming, he just gives you a whole bunch of fake scientific bullshit that will make you buy his products. sorry, but laying on the floor doesnt do anything.

I have at least 60 Lucids that says he does. All can be attributed to his techniques alone. One other thing, your the one who sounds like an idiot when you come onto a thread without reading the entire thread and claiming something you obviously know nothing about. Had you read it, you might notice the numerous posts where many many people had great results using that method.
So has anyone tried the first method. If so does it work well. Also does it work with no pre sleep?
Yes I have used the first method several times. It works but it doesn't change your body's natural rem cycles. If you have been awake all day and you try the 1st method, you are likely to fall asleep really quickly. If you have had 5-6 hours of sleep and use it with wake back to bed, you should feel sleep paralysis hit very quickly. It does in my case. Give it a try and let us know how it goes. If you are interested in these methods, you can watch the video's that explain this one and many others in great detail at the link below.

I guess I'll try it right now actually.
its not likely to work for sleep paralysis without sleeping first... but we'll see
The floor method looks interesting. I've never properly induced SP (though I've woke up in it twice) and its because I usually fall asleep because I'm laying there for such a long time. Perhaps this will yield good results for me...
My bedroom floor is hard wood, so that's a plus.
I really just want to induce SP! I'll get to an LD from there, I just want the SP XD
I think I might try the floor method tonight. So basically, I wake up during my REM stage, lay on the floor for 10-15 minutes (while closing my eyes, or no?) then get back into bed and fall asleep. Or do I try and induce SP by using a normal WILD method? I was thinking you just fall asleep like normal, but you end up hitting SP on the way there. Am I right?
You lay on an uncomfortable floor for 15 minutes on your back probably is best. It should be very uncomfortable. Then you get into bed and do your normal wilding technique. Try to stay awake while waiting for sleep paralysis. My best bet would be that while you are laying on the floor, keep your eyes closed to keep from waking up too much.. that way the SP should come faster.
I try method one tonight. If it doesn't work Im going to MILD in the middle of the night. That way I have two chances of having a LD in one night. Going to try a WILD. Wish me luck lol. ;)
This almost worked for me. I tried it after about 6 hours of sleep and then I layed on a Harry Potter book and some shoes (to make it extra uncomfortable) for about 10 minutes. I went back into bed and went into SP almost instantly except then my eyes went absolutely crazy twitching/fluttering and wouldn't stop. I tried to wait it out but it was too darn uncomfortable so I moved and then couldn't fall asleep until 2 hours later -_-
I'm going to try again tonight.
lol I totally forgot I was going to do this. Im doing it tonight since the other technique Im doing gives you so many FA a night but you need to set an alarm every ten minutes so it drains me out in the morning.

Trying this tonight!!!!
I will set an alarm for about 5 hours after I've been sleeping.
I will post results tomorrow :D
has this worked for any of you guys on your first try? I'm so excited to try this out tonight :D I'm going to do the first method, I have a bunk bed, (I got a free alarm clock app on my ipod for this, so I will plug in headphones I guess) but since I have a bunk bed, will that disrupt me? I have to climb down, lay on the floor for 10 minutes, then climb back up and lay down. Is that too much movement? I have a bottom bunk though, it is a futon that can go into a bed (I usually just keep it as a futon) except it is extremely uncomfortable.
Should I go to bed on futon, then lay on floor, then go to top bunk? I don't want to wake myself up too much by moving...
someone please help!
Ugh I forgot to do this AGAIN . I'm going to have to write it down or something so I can remember lol. Im going to try the first method and im really excited :D I think this will work for me because when I lay on the floor I get really uncomfortable but I also get tired. I hope that I dont get so tired that I fall asleep though. That would be kinda funny :lol:
I can't say for certain since it didn't compleatly work for me (read my other post above), but I have a lofted bed and climbing up/down seemed to not affect my ability to enter SP. I did this method again this morning and once again was eaisly able to enter SP but I couldn't really stay in it and move forward to an LD. Maybe it does have some affect though, so tell me how it goes for you.
okay definitely :) and I know what you mean with the eye fluttering, it's happened to me multiple times. Maybe I'll sleep on the bottom bunk so I will already be uncomfortable so going in a normal bed is even better. So once you lay back down in bed, you enter SP...then how would enter a dream? do you get HH and vibrations etc?
This actually sounds pretty logical to me, I will try this at my first opportunity, and return with my review :)
I get quite a lot of eye fluttering when I'm trying WILDs. I think it's best to make sure the room is as dark as possible and just try not to focus on it :)
I tried this last night but I was so tired I didnt feel like lying down on the floor. I lied down for 3minutes and went in my bed. I tried to WILD but after 30 minutes I quit and went to bed. I'm going to try this tonight the right way. :D
Can this work during a nap since WILDs can be achieved during a nap? If so, I want to try right now:)
Might as well try it.
Hmm.
This sounds like something Nick Newport said in one of his videos on YouTube...
I don't care if it's from Newport, if it works, it works. I dislike Newport's videos because there so darn complicated when their explaining something simple. At least this is simple tutorial with ZERO useless graphs that I can't possibly understand.
What I just read about the last time you went into Sleep Paralysis and you were dreaming that you were in your room floating towards the ceiling. That wasn't a dream. You were having an Out-of-Body experience. Just don't do that too often because it can become quite difficult to return to your body. But it is quite amazing you had that experience.
