Inducing Sleep Paralysis

After looking up sleep paralysis last year, I tried to induce it a few times and was successful once. I've recently tried to inducing it again (with the potential for it to lead into a lucid dream which I have also experience only once), and I seem to hit a brick wall every time.

I get the 'waves' of energy and sometimes even if I'm thinking of nothing, letting my mind wander or thinking of a specific place, an image forms in front of me and it's so vivid that it makes me instantly feel like I'm there. It takes me by surprise every single time and then the moment disappears just as quickly as it appeared.

This has happened several times so I'm thinking I'm doing something wrong or maybe I'm just not in the right state of mind. What should I be doing?

Waves of energy are not SP, nor are any other sensations or hypnagogic hallucinations you may or may not experience during WILDing or DEILDing. But the good news is, you don't need SP to lucid dream. Here is an article about different sensations you may get and how to use them to enter WILD.

And here is a great WILD(sageous) tutorial. Good luck:alien:

I see its really been engrained in peoples minds that they need to hit SP to have an LD :P I used to think like that as well.

I am on a mobile at the moment so I can not give you the link, but check out 'sleep paralysis explained' which is stickied at the top of the attaining lucidity section.

Well, if you can get to SP quickly and easily, I doubt you would have any problems entering the dream by rolling out of bed. If you're truly in SP, you'll be able to roll your "dream" body out of bed right into a dream! But definitely read gabs post that she linked, and read the tutorial as well. They know what they're talking about :cheeky:

I get sleep paralysis almost every other night, I still have yet to induce Lucid dreaming with it and it's far too creepy and real for me to attempt it.
