Thread: What can I do?

When I was into deep exploration of the state, I did not worry about falling asleep. I simply closed my eyes and pictured myself walking in the dark. I would actually walk into lucid dreaming. Just stay focused and let the body do the sleeping. You set up a conflict of interest when you think it is you who want to get into sleep--it is in fact the body.

That's an interesting viewpoint, and certainly one that I'll admit I didn't think of. But when you did this, was it the first time you fell asleep for the night? Or were you using the WILD or WBTB technique?

That is a very interesting post, I like it. Never heard it put like that before. In fact all your posts in this thread have been really good, keep it up!
