      Question Relaxing eyes

      I realized that the only problem that's keeping me from doing a WILD is that I keep moving my eyes. Any good techniques that will help relax the eyes other than reverse blinking?

      You could do a short meditation session before you go to sleep. I've found that sore eyes are often remedied by 10-15 minutes of void meditation. This is basically where you get into a comfortable position, close your eyes and try to clear your mind. You can do this by either focusing on your breathing, breathe in, breathe out, etc, or you can just focus on nothing, allowing thoughts you get to pass through your mind, but not dwelling on them. Let me know if this helps, I'm interested to see if it works .

      That is a nice suggestion Shock. If the meditation doesn't seem to work, you could also try laying in a pitch black room for 10-15 minutes with your eyes open. This will give your eyes time to adjust to the darkness, so when you close your eyes for sleep, they will be properly adjusted and relaxed.
