I thought this would be better because I would not have to stay still for as long.
Staying still is easy, assuming you are tired, and not pumped on the whole 'controlling your dreams' thing. You are a beginner, so I wouldn't bother with WILD. DEILD isn't much better.
Oh, and WILD/DEILD isn't a guaranteed lucid.

I would say those are a pretty good reason to do a WILD. And once mastered, you can have a lucid dream everynight.
Good luck
It is only frightening if that is your outlook on it, IMO. If you stay calm and positive about it, SP can be a not-so-terrifying experience.
