In DEILD, you wait, untill you wake up from a dream and you train yourself to not move. You do this by mantras as you falling asleep (when I wake up from a dream I don't move, or someting similar). So when you wake up from a dream and you remembered not to move or even open your eyes, and not thinking about your up coming day, you just lay there and think about your previous dream you just come out of and within just a few seconds (5 - 45), you should be back in a dream, only this time you are Lucid.
If done right (if you didn't wake up too much), then swallowing should not be a problem, because you are still in a half asleep state, not really aware of anything.
Swallowing is usually a problem when WILDing ( trying to induce LD from being awake, most often after WBTB). For WILD technique, I recommend WILD class. It has some cool stuff that applies to other techniques as well.

I usually start with whispering my mantra. That way, you get it from two sources - you think it and you hear it. After I get tired, I just think it.

Vitamine B6 should improve vividness of dreams. But once you are in LD, it's enough to say out loud, with powerfull voice, like you mean it: "Increase vividity", "Incrase clarity", "Clarity now", "Lights"...

Yes, mantras before bed, then wake up for WBTB and either do a WILD (you can visualize here also), or just fall asleep with mantras while visualizing and hope for a DILD. It's best to visualize something, that you are very familiar with - like your childhood room, house, classroom, or something like that. Once you in a dream, you can always change your dreamscape to something else.

This is just a play on sign you sometimes see on the door of a business - out for luch, be back in an hour. So I say I'm having and OBE (out of body experience) right now, will be back in 10 minutes. And the picture is a meditating man with chakras depicted in colors.
If I left something out, please ask. If you know which method you would like to use, please describe what exactly you do and I'll be happy to help you finetune it.
