So a few nights ago I unintentionally had a WILD. I felt myself enter a deeper state of sleep but snapped out of it. (I was extremely tired this particular night) I entered the deeper state of sleep again but before I knew it I was in SP.
Now that I know what this deeper state of sleep feels like, I was able to briefly enter this deeper state of sleep about 6-7 times last night trying to WILD. My only problem is as soon as I feel myself hit this deeper state I always end up doing something or my brain becomes active again and I snap out of it. How can I be passive enough to not bring myself out of this deeper sleep? It was fairly easy to get this far, since in probably a ten minute time span I went into and out of this deeper state 6-7 times I just couldn't maintain it.
I think if I can figure out how to hold this deeper state it wouldn't be hard for me to get to SP since once I hit sleep paralysis I probably have a record of becoming lucid about 85% of the time. (Which did occur last night finally, hit SP but couldn't stay lucid long enough and woke right back up).

This happens to me alot lately... i'll feel the shift into that heavier state of dreaming and I end up losing my grip on that state and waking out of it. The only way I can get past it is to keep slipping back into that state again and again until I finally wake up in a LD.
It takes me anywhere from 3 -6 times of trial and error to slip into a LD lately. I think the mind eventually gets the idea of what I want to do and it relaxes enough to let the cross over happen. I think this difficulty arose because I've messed up my sleep schedule severely for the last few weeks. I know that if I can get it back on track I'll slip into WILDs much easier.
Maybe try adjusting or creating a sleep schedule to stick to?
Just a thought.
