Check out this tutorial from our Wiki, it should answer most of your questions: DEILD Tutorial - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views
Isn't it called DILD, Dream Induced Lucid Dreaming? Or are you talking about something different?
Yes its different, I almost did a DEILD "Dream Exit Induced Lucid Dream" today at 4:50 am, I have only ever managed it once, from a Lucid dream where I had become lucid 3x but lost lucidity and then woke up for a second or so before falling back into a similar dream :)
This Morning:
I had been in a non-lucid dream and then I began to wake up, I had taken the most Melatoin ever and when I do that at the moment of waking I often see a pattern in my vision as I transition to wake. Of course being asleep I was confused and as usual thought Oh I'm falling asleep, but then quickly a vibration began to build I could feel it quite strongly, and I realized I was actually falling awake. This is the point where a DEILD can begin as this is the point of 'Dream Exit', I attempted to lie perfectly still, I could feel my body it felt numb and as if it couldn't be moved, if I had tried so move a shoulder or something it wouldn't have moved because I was partially paralyzed, but I knew I could if I chose move my fingers and break this paralysis :)
(I have never felt the vibration before but often seen the visual pattern, many experience this vibration in WILD which is similar to DEILD)
instead I tried to lie still and fall back into a dream, If I had done so with consciousness it would have been a successful DEILD but I failed, I chose after about 25 or 30 second to move my fingers and I felt my arm and then body become unparalyzed :)
I had been nearly lucid in the dream, as I had managed to successfully plant two elements into the dream, that were causing the DCs to act very weird :) if I had triggered then that would have been a DILD as the items and DC reaction would have triggered lucidity from within the dream itself which is the Dream Induced Lucid Dream.
Technically I suppose I was lucid, because at the last instant before the vibration set in I did try to rub my hands together to begin stabilizing, but I was already pretty much out of the dream, but not yet awake, I'm not counting this as Lucidity tho. Seeing the pattern I knew it was too late and so chose the attempt to DEILD instead.
Cool.
