Thread: The 90 Days WILD Project

@AndresLD
Thanks for answers you don't even know how big help it is.

So perfect attempt should look somewhat like this:
-Wake up after at least 5 hours of sleep(more is better)
-Awaken yourself a bit but just barely(right?)
-Don't think too much(cause it ruins the attempt)
I think the reason why focus is lost is because of thoughts they lead to failure.
That is why i'm trying now to master NOT thinking
-wait for the dream to form and don't get too excited
I have no idea how to stay calm. When i get SP or hypnagogia my heart starts beating faster and i almost can't control it. It's really annoying

@dark_grimmjow
Have you tried 61 point relaxation?
It really works great IF you don't think about something else

Think of calm and relaxing things
Think of how nice your bed feels
When the alarm goes off, just lay in bed in the dark with your eyes closed, do not allow yourself to awaken too much.
Lie there and imagine or daydream of a dream landscape you would like to visit. Do this calmly, try to be observant without allowing your conscious mind to engage fully.
This method combines this phase with the relaxation phase and will result in some cases in your passing directly into the transitional phase.

Forgot to post, I havn't had time to do anything for the last week. Going to continue building Dream Recall and then start again. Cya.

I have tried it, but not all 61 points, just about 30 or so. I should probably give it a go. Thanks Miomek! If i WILD tonight, and feel like i can't go to sleep; i'll try the 61 point technique and then try WILD again. That is if i haven't lost too much sleep already. Either way, i'm going to fit the 61 point technique in either before i WILD or if it looks like i'm going to fail WILD because i'm too awake. Maybe i'll throw in some reverse blinking too.

Day 56:

I failed, but i failed a little better. I don't think that the NSSWILD is for me; just because if i have to think about something too much, i'm bound to stay awake. I'm going to revert back to Yoshi's WILD, because i've had more success with it or a variation of it. Anyway, like i said i did fail, but this time i didn't lay there and lose an hour of sleep. I woke up naturally after about 6 hours of sleep. Went to the bathroom, with my eyes closed this time (only cracking them enough to see when i had to). I went back to bed and started to try WILD. I fell asleep unaware. I need to find the balance of awake and sleepy to be successful here. I'm going to try the same method tonight, only i'm going to try breath counting or just noticing my breathing. I've had success that way before, so i guess that's what i should use. I'm excited about trying again tonight, because i'll be able to sleep in later in the morning.
