    #160 - 3:38AM - DILD

    I buy some stuff at Wal-Mart check out and am walking in the parking lot. I am following behind my father in law. I remember I was trying to WILD and this seems like a dream. I say, "This is a dream." and get immediately thrown into the void. I cycle motions but eventually wake up. I should just stick to hand rubbing. Less thinking.

      Ahh, too bad about the cycling. Sorry, crap, I didn't get back to you with my thoughts on the cycling technique! If not high hopes, I at least had "medium hopes" for that tech. I read that book PDF some time back, and I agree... it really seems like something of a really in-depth DEILD guide.

      Good to know that you seem to get better results just sticking with one thing. I mean, that's certainly the approach that we've had tons of success with lately, so I'm inclined to stick with it. At the very least, hand rubbing, body probing, etc. can buy you time in the void, and after that I like moving to stuff like the sand trick or the "ask for a DC to help you" trick.

      Do you know about how long the cycling went on?

      Oh that's ok. I didn't really follow the guide very well here. I was too focused on cycling when really the first thing was working. I'm not sure but I think I even transitioned at one point but was thrown back. It may have only lasted 30-60 seconds. I just didn't have the mental clarity to make it work.
