Hey all
Finally managed to get a WILD right. But it had its problems
Firstly its not as vivid as the marketting brochure promised... not bad, but not fantastic. I've had better ;)
Part of the problem was that I live in close proximity of neighbours, and they weren't exactly quite at 9 AM on a saturday :)
But most notably... no matter how I tried, I couldn't completely ignore my physical body. I had both dream and physical bodies simultaneously
I couldn't move the physical one really, but still.
That was distracting eg. when I swallowed involuntarily.
Of course what also didnt help was the cold... more on that in a second, it relates to Truthbearers suggestions.
Credits go to ... :D
Truthbearer - For his post about sleeping without blankets. This morning I had the heater in the room, and used only one light blanket. I discovered that it seems that the weight of my blankets alters my awareness level... good thing to know... ;)
LDGuy - For the self-hypnosis thing. I don't know exactly how well it worked, but it sure helped me get through to a WILD. It felt like it was working in any event ;) Its tough to get through all those steps though, without losing concentration...
The person who posted the idea of floating on a raft (someone help here?) - For the idea of imagining being on a raft. After the self-hypnosis I used this to get through to dreamland. Worked pretty good.
Nightowl... or Alaurast.. I forget which.. :oops: - For bringing up some interesting ideas in the chat yesterday. I tried the transformation thing, but into a woman .. teehee... :shock:
OpheliaBlue - For being voted the 'best woman on the forum' ... at least on my vote! ;)
And last... but most certainly not least...
My loving wife - For going away for a few days on holiday. No offence, but you really screw up my sleep cycles in winter... :lol:
