Does anyone else imagine themselves weightless just floating around in a black abyss with no sound no light no toudh no nothing?? When I LD sometimes I find it very theraputic to go to what I call "the space"

Sometimes when I try WILDing I find myself in a "void" but never had it happen in a dream.Quote:

I haven't managed to successfully WILD, but at least twice in my life I think I've approached that void.
The first time was in high school when someone was leading our band through a visualization exercise (and a rather lengthy one at that). He was bringing us into a very relaxed state, further and further down, and at one point I approached what I believe was almost a hypnotized state. Unforunately I jerked away from it slightly and just about ruined everything that he had been having us do (for myself personally).
The second one was when I was listening to an HILD mp3 and one time I approached that void again, but just before I fell into it I jerked. I guess I just don't trust the speakers enough... maybe if someone I trusted a lot tried...
That's been my experience, though. Hopefully I can learn to relax.
cool
I don't feel paralyzed I just float around I go there on purpose it helps me think! But.. i can always go back to a dream/different place if I want to. Just remember that in an LD you can do anythingm YOU wantQuote:

I have had the void where in a lucid dream i will try to wake myself up and i come out of the dream but im not fully awake and i go to the void
I go to "the void" all the time. It's a relaxing place to focus and study. I guess it's scary to some, but to me its great.
I would really like to visit this void....

Yeah, we all do that once in awhile.
I've been there as well, and I know how frustrating it can be when you're looking forward to a lucid filled with sensory input and all you have is darkness.Quote:
How do you get out of it?[/b]
My advice is to take a moment to relax, get yourself stabilized (if you're lucid) and instead of trying to force yourself to "see" with your eyes, use your imagination in creating a scene.
For example: I was in this "space" once and couldn't see a thing. I had this feeling like I was underwater somehow, like inside the belly of a whale. Sure enough, as I imagined this scenario, the whale opened up it's mouth and I then saw light up ahead of me. I found myself topside in the water and a dream ensued.

Yeah I think I've experieneced this void. I was surprised by it, but it was pretty cool now looking back on it. It definatly wasn't just deep sleep, I slipped into it involuntarily while lucid. To get out I just kept opening and closing my eyes until I opened my real eyes.
It is good isn't it.Quote:
