Ok this came as a result of me talking with Gothlark on msn and this is his technique not mine, The whole thing is just a bunch of direct qoutes from msn put to together none of it is mine Gothlarks also the creater of HILD and another technique revolving around confidents, I once created a thread on it, but I want it do be officialy in this forum and revised:
Ok This is a visual wild, many people have posted about visual wilds but I'm going to go a little further and explain it better.
acouple diffrent occasions to do this, is right after waking up you shouldn't move much, the focus invlolved in this should keep you aware, you should have slept 8 or so hours, I also recommend practice in the day time doing a sort of meditation on it, as if you were going to do it right then, gothlark claims you can learn how to introduce wilds during mid-day if you put your mind to it.
Ok when you start get good and relaxed maybe try counting and relaxing I recommend gothlarks HILD, ok once your relaxed your going to need to introduce senses,
"to WILD instantly like I do, I have to use all the senses, okay, I personally WILD by willing myself into a meditative state and imagining a scene, then integrating my senses into it, so I'd feel something, smell something, taste, something, hear something, and see it of course, for a newbie, basically the same thing, but draw it out for a long time... do each sense for like five minutes, and put a good half an hour or an hour into the meditative trance, no order necessary, but I like to do visuals and sound first
then feeling, then taste, then smell, just because they strike me as being most dominant in that order"
"for vision it's obvious, imagine the dream scene... same for hearing, listen to your voice in the dream... listen to birds chirp or wind moving, for feeling, I like to feel a gritty or wet surface... something that would stand out, walking through damp grass, running your hands along a bumpy wall, taste... I often taste what I'd normally taste in my mouth... dry saliva (bad dry mouth during the day)...but you can also try eating something, for smell, smell out the environment from the scene... in a forest? smell pine...
Ok now that you have that down now it's important to zone out and kind of let your subconscous take over.
"it's best to just be a passive observer until things stabilize, be aware of the fact you're dreaming but don't act on it, just watch for a while, you don't get involved in it right away, you just kind of give your mind the set up, then let it drift but you have to stay consciously involved just not trying to FORCE it it takes a while to get the balance, passively set the movement into motion, the best possible course of action is to be actively passive, let things happen, but be thinking observingly, make your subconscious work on it, passively observe your thoughts as if they weren't your own"
"but try to make any thoughts unrelated to WILDing float away from you
without ever focusing on it, just observe it"
And the most important thing is it "just takes practice"

EDIT: heh, figured the words practice would keep alot of people away
