So, I was watching inception last night so i decided to try a WILD straight from waking. I led on my back and did breathing exercises with numbers and started to imagine a sream scene. After a while, I think about 10 minutes, I started to lose feeling in my arms and legs and could focus more on the dream scene. I imagined my hands rubbing together in the dream to ground myself and could feel them above me in real life. I stopped thinking about the dream and exited what I tought was sleep paralysis because my heart rate felt that it was dangerously too high.

My question is, was I succeding in a WILD and was this sleep paralysis??
