Edit, also post your first like given, because it's better to give than receive right?

It's not that different, though; for me at least.

And I strongly, strongly recommend getting into the habit of questioning reality every time you wake up, AND right before you go to bed. I've saved myself from so many FAs by doing that. It really helps! ;3

My first like is from Xei on a thread called storm, but there's nothing in the post... so this is the second-to-first like.

I dunno why I bleeped them out. I guess I thought I would be in trouble with dv. Oh how far I've come.

And I'll just post a link to the first like I gave. Cause it's massive.

You have to play it off cool when you're getting though. Don't want them to know you already expected something.

recieved: liked by lostontrains :P

The idea of WILD is to fall asleep. But not to let your mind fall asleep. if you
understand what I mean. Your mind is you, your consciousness. Your body however
is a tool for your mind. Usually your mind falls asleep first, but with WILDs your mind
should never fall asleep. You will be "awake" for the entire dream. Heres how
normal sleep works:

- the mind starts to wander and think
- the mind then drifts off to sleep
- the body, after receiving know movement signals wonders if the mind has gone to sleep
- the body sends a test signal, telling the mind it is uncomfortable
- as the mind is asleep, it does not receive this signal and the body gets no response
- the body now knows the mind is asleep and follows suit.

Heres how WILD works:
- The mind stays awake but is careful not to send any signals to the body
- The body, receiving no instructions from the mind tests the mind to see if it is asleep
- The mind receives the "im uncomfortable, please shift position" signal
- The mind of a WILDer resists the strong urge to move and deceives the body
- The body, receiving no signal, goes to sleep
- The brain begins the REM process and a dream forms in front of your eyes.

So use some sort of anchor to keep your mind awake while your body falls asleep.
Some good anchors are:
-counting ( 1, 2, 3, 4, etc... until you enter SP )
-Focus on Hypnagogic imagery ( Your brain will practically present you a light show as your body falls asleep so enjoy )
-Focus on your breathing ( Observe but try not to control )


Hope this helps,
~Wes

You've made it painfully obvious. Do you have such a strong desire to be the center of attention that you care that we all know just how apathetic you are? Do you not see the irony in belaboring the point that you don't care?

Xyn, although your intentions may be righteous, you aren't earning any Karma points by trying to belittle someone for not caring as much as you. You also seem like you are putting on a show of sympathy for the less fortunate in order to gain attention. If your intentions in this thread were truly selfless, you would accept that there are people who hold different opinions, and simply ignore anyone who tries to goad you into an argument. Not wanting to donate money to Haiti does not make someone ignorant, especially when the methods for donating that you are suggesting are a little suspect; I know I wouldn't 'text' my dollars to some vague organization that popped up to take your money and bring it to Haiti. How much of that money is actually going to help people and how much is just perpetuating the organization?

I know I sound like I'm putting myself in the position of judge, I'm not trying to. I'm merely presenting myself as a mirror so that you two might see how others perceive you and possibly see the ridiculousness in your argument.

abstraction is a subjective cognitive process. it didn't exist before capable brains evolved. the "failure" in question is up to the person doing the abstracting. how expressive or perceptive they are- how adept they are at using language as a communicative device.

maybe i'm too pragmatic. you might find this interesting: Linguistic relativity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
