      With WILD I get stuck at the end. Help?

      I saw another thread on here that's much older where rain had a similar problem but I think I can offer a more in-depth explanation

      I meditate so I have no trouble clearing my mind and watching the HI. I can get my body into sleep paralysis all the way up to my head where my mouth goes to sleep. At this point I have vivid HI but I don't know where to go from here. I've tried the following:

      -Passively watching the imagery without having any thoughts enter my mind.
      -Trying to focus in depth on a scene in my mind, only on that scene, and just imagine more and more details.
      -Trying to look past the HI to see if something will form.
      -Just staying awake and really not paying attention to anything.
      -Rolling out of my body.
      -Trying to picture myself falling through my bed.
      -Laying on my back, then switching to my side.

      Either way I have only had one WILD (truly an awesome experience) but I did it completely on accident. I was just sitting up a bit in bed, more or less just daydreaming (about 11am) and then all of a sudden I realized I was in a forest. At the time all I had to do was focus on the mental picture that appeared in my mind of a forest and it got clearer. I was laying in the same position I was in in my bed and had sheets on me but I was on the forest floor against a tree. I have no idea what I did different.

      Now during my WILD attempts I just get to a point that's more meditative than anything. I feel as though my consciousness is expanded and much larger than normal, my whole body is asleep and the HI basically goes away..
      Im just lying there (in an admittedly quite comfortable state of being) numb, feeling different but I don't know where to go, I'm basically still completely awake. Half the time I get up, a little frustrated and fall on my face because my legs are still in a sleep coma.

      Now where I seem to have the most success is when I say "**** it" and just start to let go and let my mind wander. Then a lot of times I'll start to see imagery but as soon as my attention acknowledges it, it's immediately gone. Donezo. I can't seem to find a good balance at this point so any help would be cool. It's just frustrating because I feel like I've tried a whole bunch of different mental approaches

      I have a feeling this is the part where it's like "Cool story bro, but we can't tell you how to organize your mental activity. You have to figure this part out for yourself.."
