Just wondering, do we repear each step after doing it or repeat the entire process when we are done? Thanks. |

Thanks Sydney it is important to feel relaxed and comfortable during the exercise; therefore if staying still makes you uncomfortable then you should definitely move to find a better position. In fact if you feel even slight uncomfort it is probably a sign that indicates you are not doing the exercise correctly. Also, do NOT deliberately try to stay motionless. Doing so will only make you tense and lose sleep. Find the most comfortable position as long as you don't fall asleep right away. |

I have a question before I attempt this tonight: |
|
Hey, you're back! |

Loading...
Did the technique correctly last night, no results though. :/ I think I was thinking too much about it, like, "has it been 20 seconds yet? Oh crap no don't sart thinking like that, I'm not supposed to do that! STOP IT!! AHHHH!!!" |

Since he hasn't answered I'm going to go ahead and try based on how he've replied before: The point IS to loose track of yourself. You're suppose to wander away and forget what your doing upon entering the trance after some cycles. Just hope you made atleast 2-3 cycles before you fall asleep. |
|
I'm going to try this tonight. I hope it works after a week of dream journaling and ADA's |

Hey welcome back CosmicIron. |

Spoiler for LD goals:
I tried this technique with WBTB today and i got an LD Not sure if this SSILD helped or not, maybe it would've happened without it as well, but it's not hard to do, so i'll keep using it |
|
Went to bed late last night, so I only got about an hour and 45 minutes worth of actual sleeping after my WBTB. |

LOL. You were THAT close! I guess if you had managed one more cycle you probably would have succeeded . It is quite common to have spontaneous LDs as well as suspicions of realities after doing the exercise. Next time remind yourself to do RCs more often, and please try at least more than one cycles, LOL. |
|
One common phenomenon often experienced after the exercise is sudden occurance of OBE and SP within a dream. That is, while you are dreaming you suddenly find yourself lying there, either on bed or floor, experiencing an SP or phase entrance of an OBE. This sometimes happen without any warning or transition to the waking state. Since nightmares are common when associated with SPs, my guess is that you may be experiencing this kind of sudden spontaneous SPs within a dream. |

@CosmicIron - I see, that sounds pretty reasonable to me. Fascinating, this technique is pretty interesting. |

I did a WBTB + SSILD again today and got an LD yet again Althrough now it was directly induced by me after i was in SP after waking up... but still |

I'm managing to get long chains of DEILDs using this technique, which is quite nice, but as per usual their stability is lacking and I'm trapped in my room at best and on my bed, barely able to move at worst. Shifting my identity into the "master dreamer" manages to get me off of the bed in most of those instances, but the stability is so lacking I lose the dream in seconds and never get a chance to get out of my room anyway. |
