So, having read lots of accounts of people's experiences of WILD etc. and having had a couple of successful WILD dives myself (most of mine end up in giving up or waking up later realising I just plain fell asleep without taking my consciousness with me!) I am aware that I've never experienced any of the various things that people talk about and sometimes call Sleep Paralysis (yeah, I know this is a shoddy description, but hey)

As well as totally loving Lucid Dreaming itself, I'm also beginning to feel that I'd quite like to experience these odd halucinations / body distortions / loud noises etc. for their own sake. I'm curious like that.

Has anyone ever discussed / discovered ways to *increase* the chance of these things?

Additionally, the thought does cross my mind that the fact I've never experienced these things, dispite many attempts at WILD, may possibly be a clue to my lack of success - I've managed to go directly from waking to lucid dreaming a couple of times, but frankly never during a deliberate WILD attempt.

Any thoughts?
