when I try to fall asleep, like really try and not think about anything, as long as its dark and quiet I can fall asleep in under 20 seconds. The past few days I've been trying WILD before I go to sleep, and 3 and 4 1/2 hours later by using alarms. |

I THINK WILDing is not the best for you. Try to DEILD http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...ighlight=deild. could be better, cause its no matter how fast you fall asleep and to get into SP takes a little longer than you can stay awake/conscious, i THINK ^^ |

LD goals:
- fire- [*DONE*], water-, earth- and airbending
- running up a skyscrapper
- flying
LDs total: (some in my childhood, but) 3

I think you're right about it being an advantage. Now you just need to find a visualization that works to keep you conscious. Counting alone does not hold my attention, and I'm guessing it doesn't work for you either. Try connecting something visual or tactile to the counting. |

yeah, I think FLILD (familiar landscape) is the one that will work best for me, it seems really compatible with falling asleep easily. I'm gonna try that along with a couple others tonight, results posted tomorrow in this thread! |

I've always been pretty good at falling asleep also. I thought I was good, until I started taking galantamine/choline and B6. They keep me so wired, I've had to learn how to fall asleep again. It's strange to have to re-learn something that has always been natural. |

20 seconds!? I takes me hours. |

it takes me 30 to 60 mins. But 20 secs? haha nothing compared to my grandpa ^^. hes gone in 3 seconds |

You should not try to WILD straight away as it is very hard to learn for most people, there are some members on this forum who cannot WILD even after many Lucid dreams |

well I tried FLILD last night but to no avail. I know my house really well but I didn't even get out of the basement before I fell asleep... maybe I need to try thinking about it more actively tomorrow, forcing a few trips through my house before I even let my mind wander in any way. |

It is very difficult to WILD when you first lie down for sleep. Most people who have success with WILD do it in combination with some sort of WBTB. In the middle of the night, you are closer to a long REM cycle, so it is easier to enter a dream. |
