Yesterday evening I tried another technique which I thought would work better in attempting to do a WILD. I've always been interested in drawing and therefore I had a positive attitude to the Hypnogogic Imagery Technique - since I'm familiar with imaginating the drawings I draw before drawing them.

After I went to bed and relaxed it didn't take long until I started to see images of Donald Duck in the Disney films. By time the images got more vivid and after a while I found myself watching a film about Donald Duck. I could hear the typical music of Disney films and the voice of Donald. Suddenly I got a really intense feeling of falling forwards in spite of the fact I knew I actually was lying on my back in bed. It lasted for a little less than a second because I got really surprised and a bit excited when it happened.

I will keep practicing this technique because I think it suits me.
Anyone else out there using this technique?
Do you have any tips on how to enter the dream (without getting too surprised)?
