Thread: The 90 Days WILD Project

Day 31: Woke up at 5:00 again, I got a nose bleed as soon as I stood up (weird huh?) So I went to the washroom and stopped it in about 3 minutes, then I went to my bedroom. I stayed on the computer for about 3 minutes and went to bed. I thought about random stuff, about my next lucid dream and at 5:30 tried to fall asleep. Again I had a mixture of HI's and short dreams, and at 5:52 became fully awake, then tried to fall asleep, which I did, but this time I didn't WILD.

Tomorrow morning, well it's a weekend, so depending on at what time I go to bed, I might wake up at 5:00, 5:30 or 6:00, stay awake for about 40 minutes and then go to sleep.

I'm promising to myself that i'm going to get at least 1 success by or on day 30.

Day 30:

Sadly, i didn't meet the quota i set. I tried the method of trying to just fall asleep and WILD. But i just got the fall asleep part without the WILD. I don't know if i'll get a good shot tonight since i have to get up early tomorrow. Just have to keep trying.

It can take anywhere from 10/15 minutes to almost 45 minutes, from all the attempts I've made. As for the dream forming, that also varies over a very wide range, but I don't know how long I usually have a dream form at. (Never been able to time it.)

hmm... interesting...
So in both cases there's around half an hour to get SP it's curious because i can get it within approx. 20 mins but from there well ,actually i don't have enough data to say how long does it take me to get into the dream but around one minute seems pretty fast ill have to test it then.
The reason why im so interested in it is because i can get SP any time i want even during the day. btw i 've tried WILD today(actually tonight) but i fell asleep...

Don't worry, still got 60 days to try different things and find what works for you.

SP is different for everyone, some people get it sooner while for others it takes more time. However I hope that if you train and do it over and over, eventually you can reduce the amount of time to get SP.

Day 28: 2.20.10: Morning. No cigar. (5.5 hrs to WBTB. Go back to 4.5 hrs.)
Did several very good attempts this morning, each with a very confident (I'm gonna WILD, let's do this!) mindset as well as last night, and had a false awakening with one, but wasn't consistent with each one. I'll go back over WILDing tutorials to make sure I'm setting myself up to do this all correctly. I found out yesterday that I'm trying to do a V-WILD or VILD, and quite frankly, it seems to make more sense to me, leaving less up to chance, taking more control and getting more involved. I'll keep with the V-WILDing as much as I can stay awake to do.

I'm getting HI alright, but SP.... my body just tingles and aches all over after a while. Is that SP for me?

Day 31 & 32:

Failure

Day 32:

Woke up at 6:00, got off bed, stayed on computer for 10 minutes.
I tried to stay awake for one hour, but in about 6 minutes I fell asleep, even though I did 30 push ups before going to bed, tomorrow I will do 50 push ups

Thanks Andres! It is interesting because most of the tutarials that i have read say that it is very important to stay still while attempting a WILD to trick your body that you have fallen asleep, and it seems that it is different for you.

Day 21. no attempt.

day 22: I tried to Wild but my brother was making a lot of noise and I couldnt concentrate.

day 23: Last night my alarm went off after 5-6 hour of sleep, and I went to the pee, I recorded the dreams that I remembere and finally I read about LD for 15 min. Then i tried to WILD but I wasnt successfull. During the next 3-4 hours I had of sleep i had like 5 dreams and I became lucid in one of them. it was very short though.

Day 31:

No attempt for me. I woke up at 5 something a.m. I was going to try to WILD, but it had to get up at 7:15 a.m. I was too afraid i would lose too much sleep. I can sleep til 9 a.m. in the morning; so i'm going to give it another go.

Day 7:

Failed.

No Sleep.


Day 8:

Failed.

Tried to WILD but fell asleep.

I think you got me wrong SP isnt a problem for me i can get it pretty fast but after that well no succsess...

I've tried to WILD tonight too but fell asleep.
It seems like everyone is getting the same issue here.
What about trying during the day? What do you think guys?
I did make an attempt few times during the day and acually got SP but no further...hmm...

@edit
Another reason to learn WILD perfectly:
shared dreaming

I don't really believe in this but if it really worked...

Day 9:

Unsuccessful Attempt

Fell asleep again. I was really, really tired so I pretty much expected it to happen.

Day 33:
Stayed awake for 45 minutes, then went to sleep but didn't get SP. However, I had a DILD and a DEILD. I woke up almost immediately from the DILD, but instead of spinning around I decided to stay still and not open my eyes, I was able to DEILD back into the dream, but it started in my bed and I wasn't sure if I was dreaming or not, the whole dream I was trying to do stuff I can usually do in dreams, but it didn't work, did reality checks, but they didn't work. I searched around my house to find something that told me it was obvious that I was dreaming, but didn't find anything. About 10 minutes into the dream, I gave up and decided that I had actually woken up. Then I had a False awakening, in which I was really mad that I HAD been dreaming, but then I woke up, even angrier than before.

Note to self: when not sure if I'm dreaming or not, and RC's don't work, run against a wall. Also, do a RC every time I wake up.

Day 32:

No attempt today either. I was so tired from yesterday; getting up early and work. I almost attempted yesterday, but decided not to. Although i did gain some knowledge that might help me in my attempt tonight. I woke up naturally and was planning on trying WILD. I went to the bathroom (i always go in the dark so that i don't wake myself up too much). I always try to avoid looking at any bright lights on my way to the bathroom, like my digital clock, vcr display, wii power light, rechargeable razor led, etc. Well this time i tried to keep my eyes closed and only open them when i absolutely needed to. By getting up, i was able to wake up enough that i think i could have attempted WILD, but staying sleepy enough that i should have an easy time getting back into sp. I didn't attempt WILD, but this time it didn't take near as long for me to drift off to sleep. I'm going to try this method of waking up tonight and combine it with Yoshi's WILD. I feel like this should work really well for me. I know that my mom has to get up early to go to work; hopefully this won't mess up my chances. When people are up early in the morning, moving around and turning lights on; it can really make WILD'ing difficult. Wish me luck, and happy WILD'ing to everybody on your next WILD attempt.

Day 34: no attempt, I was too tired x)

Day 33 & 34:

Failure.

I just don't know what im doing wrong. So I'm back to the drawing board.
I think from now on im just gonna stick to one method and master it.

Last night i started reading Stephen Laberge's Wild Method, and from now on im gonna stick to that technique

hey edge0125! i am reading the book also. do you mean the method in which you pay attention to the HIs and wait for the dream to form?? because I am working with that technique.

He has a couple of wild techniques at the end of chapter 4 and 6. The techniques im trying are "Hypnagogic Imagery Technique". And the "Count yourself to sleep technique" i believe its on pg 62, 67.

Im gonna give each technique a week, and then i'll stick with whichever one worked the best. If none of them worked then i'll attempt another technique mentioned in the book.

Day 33:

I failed because i was too awake to WILD. Why was i too awake to WILD you ask? Well, i tried the whole wake up naturally and go to the bathroom with my eyes closed thing. Since my eyes were closed, i didn't see the pair of shoes i left laying in the middle of the floor. Let's just say i woke up really fast. Tonight i'll be sure to have a clear path with nothing to trip over.

Day 10:

Didn't try for one.

Day 35:

Semi Successful

I failed to wild. But i did have a DILD; and i finally got to try my time freeze technique

Day 35: No attempt, I was too tired to try, again

Day: Something..

Props: Alarm clock, mp3 player or mobile phone

Set the alarm to wake you up one earlier than usual wake up time, then play a mp3 file that will wake you up 15 minutes later and turn itself off. just remember to deild this time. =)

Day 34:

I had a mild episode of sp; i lost part of the sensation of my body, but not enough to get full blown sp. As a plus, i didn't trip this time. I didn't keep my eyes closed for the entire trip to the bathroom either. This time of year, long-legged spiders get into the house; so i find it hard to walk around in the dark with my eyes closed. I guess i'll brave it out, since it seemed to yield a little results. Better luck tonight.
