Thread: What, and how far is this? (WILD)

Yeah it was HI for sure. Just try to stay calm and not lose consciousness. There will eventually be a point that you reach where you can move your dream body around, but you will still not be in full paralysis. When you reach this point, it is helpful to interact with the HI as it becomes stable. It is very important to make sure you do not do this prematurely: make sure it is your dream body moving and not just you visualizing movement, which amounts to no more than thinking and ruins the whole deal. In fact, it may be better to wait until you have successfully WILDed a few times.

Generally I will run around the room (if I am in one) and punch everything in sight, running and jumping and ducking etc. What this does is put all of your attention on the delicate dream so as to induce full paralysis. In about 30 seconds you should feel a tingling in your spine and the dream will become solid; this is accompanied by a full transition of your consciousness which is undeniable.

Thank you both very much for your inputs! You have cleared things up for me and I'm a bit joyed over the fact that I actually got somewhat close to the real deal. At least I know that I'm on the right track.

I guess the most difficult part will be to stay calm and relaxed when all these final things occurs - considering it will be the first time for me and I don't know the feelings of what I have to expect.

Thanks again for taking the time to inform me!

The mini dreams are a part of WILDing. I have a few before actually slipping into a LD.

Sounds to me like you were right on the verge of entering a dream. I don't know what to say other than try to ignore the sounds or use the sounds as a guage that lets you know you're almost there.

I heard a little girl talking to me once when I started falling asleep. I thought, Hey, there's no one in the house except me. As soon as I realized it was a hypnogogic sound it stopped and I went right into a lucid dream. Don't focus on the sounds or images too much, just a fleeting attention will do, then remind yourself to lucid dream.

Thing with my WILDs is I sort of 'wake up' in a lucid dream, still laying in my bed in the same position as I fell asleep. I suspect Im dreaming but sometimes am not entirely sure. That's where reality checks come in handy. Find one that you think will work for you. They come in handy in DILDs too. I like the nose plug check. It always works.

Welcome to Dream Views.
