Thread: -sigh- so many questions

I would be willing to communicate through e-mail or PMs if you would like. You can try me here. [email protected]

Considering your questions, there are various theories on the eye moving thing. When you're in REM sleep your eyes will be moving anyway. Some people find it easier to WILD without moving thier eyes. You will find WILDing strategies to be varied as all heck. You must experiment. Maybe starting with DILDs and MILDs would be a more fitting first step.

As far as sleep position, it only matters to me if I am attempting a WILD-esque induction method. It has no effect on DILDs.

i'm not very experienced but...

i find it better to sleep on my back when attempting to WILD. everyone is different though.

When I dream, I in no way realize I'm dreaming, and wake up slapping myself in the face. Any ideas?

In due time, you will learn to LD. Spend some time on the forums & read a few books.

Does it matter what position you sleep in? and does holding your eyes closed with something work?

This might seem weird, but it's been said that lying flat on your back with your palms out is the best and easiest way to sleep. Most healthy too.

I try to do that almost every night however sooner or later I almost always roll over- somehow it becomes very "weird"

Do you roll over while your awake or asleep?

I have heard of something called the "stop drop and roll" method (or something like that), it basically said your body will give you the urge to roll over and If you don't roll over your body thinks your asleep so it will go to sleep.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.... Joshua Williams? On my I-Pod, I downloaded some subliminal lucid dreaming aid, and it automatically accredited it to... one Joshua Williams. Did you create that?

EDIT: Oh, sorry, lol. It was ninja9578. I just saw the J-O and the W with the double l's and made a connection. Anyways, welcome to DreamViews. I don't really know what to tell you that nobody else already has, so... I'll just leave you with a kind welcome. I'm pretty experienced with DILD's and the theory of most lucid induction methods, but the practice is where I fall short. Either way, feel free to contact me if you have questions. You can talk to me through PM, or [email protected]

I usually wind up doing that too. If you're very sleep deprived you can fall asleep in almost any position though.
It also depends on the temperature, if you're sleeping in a cool place then your body will want to curl up and lay on it's side.
