Thanks to everyone for your suggestions...Looks like I'm back on track as I had an award winning LD last night.
In an earlier post, I asked how deep your level of sleep should be after returning to sleep using WBTB and MILD. I have a hard time returning to sleep and most of the time, I feel like I'm not sleeping at all...very shallow sleep. So I've been experimenting with the amount of time spent awake before returning to bed. 30-60 minutes was too long for me but it looks like I erred in the opposite direction as well. I was staying up only long enough to use the bathroom. Last night, I stayed up 10 minutes and had my first LD in almost two weeks.
I was MILDing about flying but I also had a clear image of a friend in my mind's eye. As usual, I thought I wasn't sleeping. However, in a heartbeat, I was in an LD. The transition from being awake in bed to the dream was instantaneous, like changing channels on the TV, and I remember feeling relieved that my dry spell was over. I can't go into details as they are personal, but the person whose image I had in mind was now sitting next to me in bed. As I reached for her, I wondered if I would be able to feel her. She felt not quite solid the first time I touched her, but that immediately changed to normal feeling. The feel of her skin was as real as real can be and felt cool to the touch. The overall atmosphere was unbelievably clear and real...
I guess flying isn't my primary interest......
