Just learned about Reverse Blinking last week from doing deep dives into various DV threads. I LD maybe once per month, and almost always by recognizing a dream sign in an active dream or upon dream exit. I have never managed to WILD. Until last night.

Did the basics - lay on my back, reverse blinked, began to get drowsy. Eyelids began to feel "sticky". Got to a point where I could not open my eyelids and was in sleep paralysis. No sensations other than that. Recalled from reading various threads that this can be a problem - several people report entering SP, but tough to go from there. I then used a technique I picked up from the Phase crowd (Michael Raduga's obe4u site and books) called "straining the brain" where you pretend the brain is a muscle and try to "flex" it. I "strained the brain", felt a little "pop" and then brought on the vibrations. "Exited" from there.

I just want to say thank you to everyone for bringing Reverse Blinking to my attention. I can't wait to see how consistently I can make it work!
