When in pursuit of SP, don't try and force things to happen, don't block things out from your awareness; instead, let your mind bring them into your awareness naturally without trying to force them in. Just allow yourself to completely "zone out" and let your awareness take over in a "thoughtless" way, drifting from one focus to the next. Don't look towards a goal, don't think about a goal; instead, be aware of the darkness and on occasion, check how your body feels as you rest. As you continue with your WILD, your mind will naturally drop the unnecessary things it is aware of. and all that will remain will be the darkness, hypnagogic hallucinations, and the sensation of your body going deeper into a state of sleep paralysis.
Once sleep paralysis has been achieved, you need to relax yourself even further. You can accomplish this by mentally repeating something like "relax deeper" or "relax further". Every time you say this phrase, try and actually feel yourself sinking deeper and deeper, (don't repeat the phrase again until you have felt yourself sink deeper). Also, try and synchronize the phrase you use with your breathing. As you say "relax", breathe in, and as you say "deeper", breathe out. Then allow yourself to pause for about 3-4 seconds before breathing in again, (try not to count the seconds or you will fall asleep). Remember to be aware of this pause or you might fall asleep. Just keep repeating this for a while and stop for a minute then repeat. Eventually you will come to a point where you feel a surge of energy trying to take over your body, (it will feel like you are falling asleep), just let the energy take over.
