So what will I do after achieving sleep paralysis? I am yet to have my first luciD dream
Thanks for sharing your expertise. When I read the title free falling I thought it was because of the feeling we can have after sleep paralysis before entering an OBE or WILD. But if I got it right you are teaching how to get to SP faster which is the hardest part in wilding. I tried that this morning but I already had enough sleep so it was difficult to have full SP. Can you do that any time of the day equally easy ?
I tried that and failed
Can someone perhaps give a quick example of what an illogical thought would be? I want to make sure I have the right idea before going in, so that I don't just see something I THINK qualifies but doesn't actually.
I'll, for example, start off with a thought, and if someone would give an example of how it would become "illogical" or "chaotic", it'd be great.
Thought: I'm going out of school to pick up my brother. When I reach his school, I start heading home."
It's a very basic thought, feel free to add any details and describe in what way it would become "chaotic".
Thumbs up dude.
I gave it a shot this morning... and succeeded at reaching SP and making the transition. Sadly, all my WILDs start in my dream bed, which sometimes make it almost impossible to tell apart from reality. This morning's felt extremely real and I ended up going back to bed thinking I had failed, when I was in fact dreaming.
The chaos theory works wonders for me, but I always fall too far and manage to lose consciousness. Does y'all know how to anchor myself or practice passive awareness.
Thanks!
'No WBTB required.' Just to be sure: this means that this technique can be used for DEILD right?
Bump - I really wish Jeff would read through his own guide and answer some peoples questions.
Like my own - How do I mimic the bodys sleep breathing pattern when I have no idea what its like?
The body tends to breathe more deeply when we are sleeping. So as opposed to the moderate breaths you are taking now (take note of your own breathing at THIS moment), breathe deeper when you are mimic'ing. But not uncomfortably so.. you don't want to take very deep breaths.. just somewhat longer ones than you normally take. ;)
Fuck yes.
I never mentioned how great this technique is, or posted in this thread. Thanks, Jeff! It has definitely helped a lot of people :D
(If I posted in this thread before, I will feel like an idiot :lol:)
I broke my 2 months long dryspell this morning using Free Fall WILD :D!! I actually woke up at 3:00 AM to study for anatomy, and went back to bed at 4:00 AM and thought, heck, why not give it a shot. I think I lost consciousness for a little while, but eventually was able to catch myself before falling asleep :)
Going to try this tonight, I haven't had a lucid in months...well, even a year. At times this happens to me without trying, and the intense switch for me is like I'm falling which causes me to wake up being scared... Hopefully this will work!
Thanks
after the body is paralyzed, is there something in particular that has to be done to continue of does stuff just proceed on their own? (sorry if its silly:cheeky:)
Why does this thread keep dieing?
I tried this method last night. All I can say is that I reached the vibrations that come before an SP, but I didnt enter it, because my bird just had some scream attack that made me unfocus on my anchor :S
But still there has been a lot since I last entered an SP from a WILD. I will try this out again this night and I will put an isochronic tone to use as an anchor.
I tried this last night as well. I failed. :( I seem to get confused when you (Jeff777) say to have passive awareness of your thoughts. I've always thought that as being hard, because whenever I notice my thoughts, I always continue them without realizing it. And then once I try to "shake" them out of my mind, my mind goes blank for a bit, and then I think about something else again.
So like, I couldn't really tell when an illogical or weird thought/image came into my mind. I had so much trouble with just letting my thoughts go by.
Any tips?
When I create my thoughts, and let them drift away, I always get a mini shock/jolt of awareness, similar to what is experienced when I am drifting off to sleep and someone in the same room speaks loudly, and I snap into awareness.
Should I try to get these "shocks", or will they keep me awake?
This seems to be the best WILD completion then I'll try it :)
I love you, it worked. i have ADD and find it diffucult to empty my mind, but with this techinque i didnt had to, so i tried it last night when i was going to sleep, i layd on my side and letting my mind wander, after 10 minutes i suddenly felt my hart going faster and faster, then i felt a tingeling trough my hole body, but because my hart was beating so fast so began my breathing, i tried to relax my breathing but i just couldnt, after like 10 seconds the feeling suddenly stopped, i knew my mind noticed i wasnt asleep, so after 10 min i felt it again but the same happend. what should i do? i just cant keep my breathing relaxed.
Just started learning about LD this week, read this today and immediately tried it, felt myself slipping into SP but got so excited that I came out of it. I am sure with some practice this will be an extremely effective technique.
Bump because this technique is great.
Well, it wasn't a WILD-attempt at all, but I did experience something similiar yesterday. I was in my bed, just drifting off to sleep like usual. I remembered this and decided to speed up the falling asleep-progress by 'free-falling with a weighted jacket on'. It worked. Got all kind of weird visuals, practically lost awareness, then suddenly got it back. I got some kind of shock through my stomach when my awareness got back, it felt kind of funny :P It was my initial falling asleep though, otherwise I would've kept going, but I decided to just fall asleep after it
I don't understadn what he means about an 'illogical thought', is it just a thought or image that can't happen in reality? for example flying or something I don't quite understand. If someone can post what it actually is.
