I'm a little late, but be expecting a day 1 report tomorrow.
Day 25:
Unsuccessful.
I need to find a way to induce HH. I feel my problem right now is getting to that point. because once i get even the slightest HH i can pretty much enter my dream from there. So if anyone has any tips, please let me know. Im sure it will help a lot of people out as well.
I just found this; I think I'll try to join you too. I've been trying WILDs for a while now, but not on a regular basis. Although it takes me a while, I can often get to the threshold of SP. I start to feel heavy, or my limbs start to fell numb, or I feel oddly like I'm floating. But after a few moments, it dissapears, and I'm left lying awake again. Usually I get an incombatable urge to swallow, and I think that's what makes it dissapear, but sometimes it just happens without me moving at all. Any suggestions?
And I now it's supposed to help a lot, but I really can't try WBTBs very often, they just make me too tired in the morning.
Day 1:
Unsuccessful attempt.
I used WBTB with Yoshi's WILD technique. On about my second position switch I started to feel heavy, but eventually drifted off to sleep without a WILD. I dreamt about playing Warcraft 3.
Hey I think Im going to try this too. I love research and this is sort of the same thing. I have a voice recorder for my book writing (which my main character will have WILDS (-:) So would you mind if I joined? I hope Im not to late but I will try different methods here and there. I had one intense sleep paralysis that was pretty terrifying that I remember and Ive dreamt about it sence I was 6. Im excited and maybe at the end of the 90 days we all will be new people in sleep.
Good luck and sweet dreams guys. Tomorrow I will record what I went through tonight. Hopfully I will be able to understand my sleepy self hahaha.
Day 24:
No good. I went to sleep some time after 1:30 a.m. and didn't wake up til 7 a.m. It had just snowed the night before so the reflection of the snow made my room really bright. I could tell that getting a successful WILD would be very difficult. I covered my face with a shirt so it wouldn't be so bright. I eventually just drifted off to sleep. I think i'm going to keep working on Yoshi's WILD for maybe 2 or 3 weeks to see how it goes. Maybe my alarm will wake me up next time so i can give it another shot before it is daylight.
Day 26:
Semi successful.
I had a false awakening again! ahhh, this is the third time its happened.
I woke up at around 5am, got up for like 3 min then went back to bed. After about 4 min of laying in bed i began to experience HH. At this point i was excited (i was kind of groggy and out of it though). I remember about 5 secs after the hypnagogic sounds i began to get that weird feeling all over my body (spinning feeling). At this point i thought i was in my dream, so i did a reality check and for whatever reason i thought i was awake due to my RC.
I then woke up realizing that i was dreaming the whole time and that my RC failed me. Unbelievable, i was soo close.
Day 25:
No success, I dont think I'll be able to try hard enough for the next 2 days, but after tuesday I should be back in the game.
Day 25:
Nothing. This time my alarm woke me up, but i was so out of it that i couldn't even remember why i set the alarm. I laid there waiting for it to stop and then zonked out again. Next time, i need to at least get up to go to the bathroom so i will be awake enough to remember to WILD.
I really need to start improving. Only 2 WILD's in 25 days, and those were towards the beginning of the project. Seems like i've gone down hill. If i've went down hill so much then i should get to the valley soon, that way i should start going up hill again. :lol:
Day one for me:
No sleep paralysis but I do remember two dreams very vividly and I think if I didnt wake up due to my alarm I could have had a lucid dream. I knew I was dreaming and I was very excited to go into the cave with all the demons (long story) but the alarm went off. I went back to sleep right after and it picked up where I left off but I didnt have any luck it just turned weird.
I was trying the piano trick where you move two fingers while going to sleep so you can stay conscience. I just ended up falling asleep though with no luck of sleep paralysis.
Im sure if I keep at it soon I will be able to do it with ease. (But I also been trying for a while before I ran into the thread)
Day 2:
Semi-Successful
I woke up in the middle of the night last night, so I decided to use the FILD technique. On my first attempt, I got some pretty intense HI of a strange circus conductor like man with a big hat and mustache. I woke up and tried again, but just fell asleep.
Then in the morning I woke up about 45 min. early so that I could try for a WILD. I just fell asleep.
EDIT: I also remember feeling a shift. I did a RC or two, but I was still awake.
Day: 23-25
Nothing except on the 25th when I wrote down one dream (trying to get my dream recall back again)
I DILD all the time and really want to master the WILD so I shall join you all in this endeavour. Sorry for being late but hey what the heck lets jump right in, I did plenty of research on this so I will set my alarm for 3 hours of sleep and let you know what happened, if anything cool did I will definitely update, if not well its only day 1 hehe.
*update* Day 1, I woke up at 3am this morning to a soft music so I was not jarred but I can not recall any dreams from before that time in the morning. I got out of bed and cleaned my room for a bit. I lay back in bed and got comfortable, put on some non-distracting music and started to focus, I could feel tingling and vibrations, also I was having a fair amount of HI but could not get past this point. After having my eye itch and my foot cramp for a long while I rolled over and went to bed. Also something odd, I don't remember any dreams from last night at all, which is very unusual for me.
I think I'll join this research group. Sounds interesting.
Day 1
From Last night: I became suspicious of my dream environment, after pondering it I entered Sleep Paralysis. I was sleeping on my back. While in sleep paralysis, I visualized wings on my back and was able to feel actual psychical wings on my back. I was also able to control them simply by thinking "beat faster". However, I was not able to "lift" myself out of wild and into an actual lucid dream. It is very difficult to make the transition from WILD to Lucid dream for me.
I will try again tomorrow and see what happens.
I hope you guys will have better luck than I had.
Day 26:
No success (wasn't expecting any), same thing for tomorrow, but starting wednesday I'll be able to really try.
Day 27:
1 attempt. Failure
Day 26:
Woke up 15 minutes after my alarm went off. Failed WILD. Better luck tonight.
This sounds pretty interesting, I was wondering, how many days did it take for each of you in the 90 Days WILD Project to get your first WILD?
Day 15: 2.7.10-2.8.10 Nothing.
Day 16: 2.8.10-2.9.10 Planning on an afternoon WILD attempt. May use lucid aid mp3. Result: Nothing.
Day 17-22: 2.9.10 through 2.14.10 College, band practice (over at another's house for a few days), and numerous other miscellaneous things didn't give me an opportunity to attempt WILDing.
Seeing everyone's logs of progress and even some of successes has got me re-inspired. I'm going to keep up with this: time to get back into this thing! I'm going to try my best to post here every day with my results, and will make a new diligent effort to WILD.
Day 3:
Unsuccessful Attempt
I kept trying to WILD with WBTB but was interrupted by random people knocking on my door with a wrong adress over and over again :?.
Day 27:
failed. Tomorrow hopefully I will start getting closer to success, since now I'll be able to really try.
Day 27:
My alarm did wake me up this time, but no success. I started to try WILD, but i was so sleepy that i forgot what i was doing and fell asleep unaware. I saw a quote somewhere in another thread that said, "Get up no matter how much your mind tells you you can stay in bed." I don't think that's exactly right, but close enough. I'm promising to myself that i'm going to get at least 1 success by or on day 30.
Day 2:
No real luck today, alarm didnt wake me up quite enough and I rolled back over in bed then had a FA later and didnt realize it so got nothing. But hey I have done it before so I will do it again.
