Thread: Sitting in SP forever?

How do you make yourself keep a little part of your brain awake?

Practice every single night, theres no exact way to start doing it right immediately. Even with all the tutorials here you still gotta practice, practice, practice to make them worthwhile.

I try and separate the 2 parts of my mind. The 2 parts being the creative side which sparks dreams like a match lights a fire, and the conscious side.

I think this has helped a little, but I'm still working on it too.

Ive tried a couple of WILD attempts now , i find it hard to judge exactly how far ive gotten tbh.

I get to a stage where my body feels pretty heavy and fairly numb.
I have to make a mental effort to move because tho i can , my body doesn't feel like it wants me to... i dont know if you would classify that as SP

I lie watching the HI , but never really get beyond some fairly interesting lightshows .. I dont recall hearing any wierd noises or anything.
However on several occasions i have felt a very peculiar sensation , almost like being extremely dizzy , i feel my self spinning madly - tho i don't feel any of the sickness you might get with usual dizziness.

So far this is as much as ive achieved .. Does any of this stuff sound like im making headway?

Actually, here is my technique I am going to start using (just tested last night), seems (to me) to only take about 5 minutes.

Alright:
You wake up from a dream using the water trick (dont drink water before you sleep, and you wake up ready to drink some)
Don't move at all, not even to get water, just think about being lucid.
When you are firm on the belief that you will be lucid, close your eyes and start breath counting.
You will see lights, and then images.
You are injected into the dream. Have fun.

My first one last night was like this:
I wake up
I think about a LD
I decide to try (what I thought was called a MILD technique, a spin on WILD) it.
I see the lights
I then remember seeing a cobblestone path through an old colonial city.
I enter SP, I cannot move
I feel my pulse pounding (although looking back, it is the same)
I feel a sinking/falling sensation
I am injected into the dream, on a path in vietnam. Don't ask me why, I have never been there. I have played a game called KumaWar with a map that has that.

I woke up a few hours that morning and thought to myself with great excitement, "That was the most freaking awesome thing I have ever done in my life!", and decided to try the whole ride through a WILD, since this skips over much of it and you jump into SP, but got the same block as you, except in the lights phase, no images or physical sensations.
