      Day 16:

      I tried to WILD in the late afternoon. The wave of heaviness and numbness/tingling came over my body, but I had music playing low in the background which I think might have kept me grounded in the waking world. I didn't have any HH, and my vision was black for the most part. I felt pretty close, like I was right on the edge of a WILD.

      Day 40:

      No success with WILD, but i did have an awesome DILD again. I couldn't find my foam earplugs, so when i heard my dad walking around in the kitchen; i just popped in the other ones and zonked out.

      @Miomek: I might give that NSSWILD then a try. It sounds similar to Yoshi's WILD, but with a slightly different spin on it. I'll try it tonight and see how it goes.

      um... Studying what?
      I'm not sure what you mean but i'm studying diffrent techniques and approaches to find the best one for me. BUT i don't just read diffrent WILD techs since all and everithing in science is connected together. Recently i'm trying to find some way to quickly "switch" to alpha or perhaps even theta frequency! If i could do that then WILDing should be piece of cake...
      Check out this site:http://www.formulaformiracles.net/brain-waves.html
      and this http://www.thetahealingla.com/TheSec...dTheSecret.pdf
      That's mainly about theta healing(incredibly interesting!) but it seems like there is a way to change your brain's fequency. I also saw somewhere a book about swithing to theta instantly but i can't remember the name.
      If someone saw something like that please post here this could help the project.

      @edit
      Hey dark_grimmjow how did the NSSWILD go?

      In the 2 night I have tried to CANWILD i am already awake when the alarm goes off.
      What I am going to do is go to bed at 11:20 everyday from now on,and drink 2 glasses full of water before that.
      That will make me wake up after a REM cycle, and I can write down the time. After 4-3 days I will have an average time of when during the night I have REM cycles.
      Then I can set my alarm to go off during REM, and hopefully have a successfull CANWILD.

      I hope this works!

      oh, i'm idiot
      btw i think i'm gonna try NSSWILD tonight and see what happens.

      P.S Have you checked the links?
      I know that changing brainwaves to theta frequency is possible cause i saw something like that on some web site:
      [...]Theta Healing Practitioners use this<theta> Frequency and at times they use Delta and Gamma Brain Waves.
      I think everyone notices a great potential in this...

      Day 41:

      I totally forgot about trying WILD when i woke up during the night. I've had about 3 or 4 projects going at one time at school. Now that the majority of them are over, i should have better concentration for WILD. Gotta try the NSSWILD tonight.

      Day 42:

      I started to try NSSWILD, but before i got too far into it; i fell asleep unaware. I don't think i'm trying hard enough. I get fired up before i go to bed, and when i wake up during the night and its time to WILD; i let my drowsiness and laziness beat me into half-hearted WILD attempt or not trying at all. I need to get so fired up before bed, that when i wake up during the night that the fire is still burning. In other words, keep my motivation up.

      This is pretty embarrassing, but I took a week off from WILD attempts from a bad stomach virus.... But, fear not! I've been back on track with WILDing, been making two-three attempts per night/day, and have been pinpointing where I'm messing up, and it's an old problem: falling asleep before SP sets in, before I get to any HH. I've done it with and without WBTB, adjusting the time of my WBTB several times, though so far I've only changed it between 4.5 and 5.5 hours. Here are my logs from day 29 to day 41:

      Day 29: 2.21.10: WILD attempts last night and this morning didn't yield results. Sleep through my WBTB alarm.
      Day 30: 2.22.10: Made a WBTB attempt this morning, but didn't stay awake long enough. My alarm didn't put me close enough to a REM phase.
      Day 31: 2.23.10 - Day 37: 2.28.10: Contracted and fought off a stomach virus, preventing WILD attempts. Will resume immediately, confidence unshaken.
      Day 32: 3.1.10: Stayed up last night, was too tired to get up for WBTB. Will be napping after classes today, will WILD then.
      (Night) Didn't get a chance to nap, will attempt tongiht/in the morning. Wish me luck - I'm gonna WILD!!
      Day 39: 3.2.10: (Morning) 2 attempts, unsuccessful.
      (Afternoon) Made three attempts. It seems I've gone back to my problem of falling asleep while trying to keep conscious for SP to set in. I'll be trying different things to find out what it is I need to succeed. My confidence and mindset are fine, so I'll find the spot that needs attention.
      Day 40: 3.3.10: (Morning) Made a couple attempts last night. Did much better than other recent attempts, but still not reaching SP before falling unconsciously asleep.
      (Afternoon) 3 attempts, all fell asleep while counting breaths. I know I had been rid of this problem once, I'll look back and see what it was I did to keep this from happening anymore. Will look in ETWOLD for information as well. (Picked up a copy from the library today.)
      Day 41: 3.4.10: (Morning) 2 attempts last night, unsuccessful, but I found out that I'm really not paying a lot of attention to things to keep my consciousness. I'm going to start using Dr. LaBerge's methods of visualization to keep consciousness, and to avoid falling asleep at the incorrect phase of the WILD. I'm currently reading on the white dot technique, black dot technique, and the lotus flower/flame technique, to keep myself involved. Counting breaths just isn't cutting it.

      I'm not on DV much these days, but I'll try to toss a cool dream or two into my DJ.

      Day 43:

      I failed. I woke up naturally at about 5:45 a.m. to try WILD. I used the bathroom first and i knew that within 10 minutes my mom would be in the kitchen getting something to eat before she went to work. So i tried to hurry and get back to my bedroom so the kitchen light wouldn't cause me to wake up anymore. Since i knew there would be somebody moving around in the house, i put my earplugs in. I started the NSSWILD, by imagining an orange marble and playing with it in my mind. When it was time for me to roll over, i realized that i couldn't because of the earplugs. I need to find some that don't hurt my ears. There's no way i'll be able to get WILD consistently without earplugs. I get too distracted when there are any audible distractions, like people moving around in the house or traffic on the highway.

      Seems like I'm lucky - no one is going around the house in the morning but I'm simply too lazy to perform a WILD. I woke up at 4:30 with my alarm clock but just turned it off and was too lazy to go to bathroom so I fell asleep without a success.

      Next time: GET OUT OF BED (hmm... I've seen this before in this thread )

      Day 32, 44, 45: no success

      I've been slacking off pretty hard, but it's because I was really tired because of wrestling, now wrestling is over and I will start trying hard again (getting out of bed)

      I've read through the entire thread, and I'm now joining. I've had 4 unsuccessful attempts of CanWILD (which sounds like a toy commercial or something, dunno why. O noes, now i'm getting images of this pretentious dude saying: "with the CanWILD product...". Ok, I shall now stop.)

      I'm now trying something random WILDish and see how it goes. Experimentation is the way to go!
      Currently practicing WILD. I quote Kaniaz who said it best: "The point of WILD is to piss me off". Though, I have not given up, far from it.

      Day 44:

      Failed again. I woke up naturally at about 4:30 a.m. I thought that it would be a while before anybody would be up and moving around the house. So i went to the bathroom first. Went back to bed to start WILDing. I thought, surely it's early enough that no one will be making noise or anything. So i said the heck with earplugs. BIG mistake. Not ten minutes after i layed down and started my WILD attempt, my dad was in the kitchen stomping around, turning lights on, and coughing (he always does this in the morning, and it's always loud). I know that he has get ready to go to work, but he could at least try to be quiet. So i said the heck with my WILD attempt, put my earplugs in, and fell asleep eventually. This is so freaking frustrating. I hate having a success rate below 5%. I have to work at my grandpaw's tomorrow. He has a box of foam earplugs that he uses at work. I'm going to see if i can have a few of them and see if they help. I'm going to try again in the morning. I know that my dad is going to be up again, so i'll have to go with my painful earplugs.
