Thread: Was i almost there?

... And I fell asleep. So then I woke up..., but I didn't move as far as I could remember and I kept drifting between a conscious state and kind of like a vision state. I wasn't dreaming but I had like little quick visions (4-5 seconds).

Hypnagogic images.

While I was laying there drifting back and forth my entire body from my legs to my shoulders were shaking. Is this what the vibrations feel like?

Yup, vibrations, all right.

But anyway with the shaking continuing I tried and I really tried to in-vision my dream, but could get nothing.

Just observe whatever is happening passively. Let it play out by itself.

does it seem like I was getting close to a dream state or was that random shaking just a coincidence?

You were close.

Also I cannot remember any of my dreams from last night or any other night so DILD is really hard to do

Write all your dreams and fragments into dream journal. Best dream recall tool there is.

I even took 100mg of b6 vitamin that seemed tod do nothing. Tonight i'll take like 250mg

Don't do it. 250 is way too much. You can get nerve damage. No pills are gonna help, if you don't have DJ, record your dreams and think about and appreciate your dreams every day.

Info about sensations (sensations and types of entry into WILD) you may/may not experience and how to cash in on them. Happy dreams

Wow I have so much more confidence now, I cant wait until tonight. I guess i wont take any B6 anymore ill just repeat my mantras more and more!!!!

Good, then my work is done here, haha.

You can take B6. But only recommended dose. And not every day. I take B6 100mg every now and then. But I have found, that 50mgs works more consistently (for me). You can also eat some food, like cheese, bananas, apples or apple juice. Check out the Lucid aids forum about lucid food.

I do have confidence in you too. Now go and make it happen

Wait guys when i feel that strong shaking should i go along with it or should I try to stop it, because last night i was so confused I kept trying to stop it because i couldent tell if my actual physical body was shaking or it was all just in my mind. I didnt want the shaking to wake my body up....

It's not your physical body. If anybody was looking at you, he would not notice a thing. I believe, that vibrations are your subtle dream/astral body separating and getting ready for the nightly adventure. It could also be the energy body expanding to receive energy recharge from the universe.

Everything vibrates. When we raise our vibrations, that's when we are able to visit other realms like dream and astral, because those operate on higher vibrations. I also believe, that what level you raise your vibrations to, that determines, which plane you are able to visit. For example, if your vibrations are good enough only for lover astral planes, you will not be able to visit the highest planes. It's like tuning a radio. You have to be on the right frequency, to receive certain channel.

If you stop the process, you will just fall asleep and the proces will start again after you are asleep. Or you can try again and you may get the vibrations back.

If you read the article I linked, you will learn that you can have all different kinds of sensations, vibrations are just one of them. Let them all play out.

You should just roll with it, you're physical body isn't shaking, and the more you concentrate on it the more likely you are to wake up.

I am not sure how close to a full LD you were, but you did manage to be aware in the first stages of sleep, and that is a great sign. I do not know, were you actually shaking? If so, it has nothing to do with dreaming. However, if you could not tell wether it was real or not, I bet it was not. The process of being aware when you are falling asleep causes all sorts of odd feelings and experiences. Good luck, it sounds like you are moving closer to your goal.
