Thread: Speeding Heart Beat When Getting Close to Transitioning

Hi there my friend, I would be more than happy to answer your questions

...my heart was beating super fast? Could that be why? Is it normal for this to happen...

During the transition phase in a WILD, a person will experience a lot of weird and strange effects in their body. From spooky sounds in your ears up to legs shaking like a crazy, but take note that everything you experience in this phase are just all in your head. The effects are usually distinctive or different to each person. So in other words, your experience of your heart beating up super fast is natural. Or it could have been just you starting to tremble or have fear of what's gonna happen next.

and does it stop eventually?

Yes it'll top eventually after some time. This is actually the point where you enter a LD. But there are two ways of entering, the first one, is for imaginative people. What you do is you think of the dream setting and once it's formed, you try to enter it. The other way, if for those who aren't that usually good with their imaginations, you just wait for the weird effects to stop. Then you should slowly get up your bed and try an RC check

Just continue practicing my friend and you'll achieve more LDs. If you've got questions, you can reply back. Hope this helps

Thanks
Now that you mention it, I think it actually was just in my head. While I had the speeding heart rate, I thought to myself, well I'm not feeling any discomfort and my breathing is normal, why would my heart be beating so fast when I am feeling calm and comfortable? After I let the effects subside, I don't remember doing a reality check. So maybe I was already in a dream at that point after things the effects calmed down, but went right to sleep not knowing it? I also don't think it was fear of what would happen next. I was very calm throughout the whole thing, and near the end got a tiny bit excited because I felt I was almost there, but kept myself calm. I think it was just in my head.

Also, now last night I tried again, and I thought it was interesting that after being in what I thought was sleep paralysis for a few minutes, I couldn't keep focus, and when I fell asleep I did before I knew it. It was a different kind of falling unconscious feeling that you get when you naturally fall asleep, like there was no feeling of falling asleep, just a sudden black out, if you know what I mean.

Hi there my friend,
The sudden blackout you've just experienced is pretty natural. It happens often to WILD users. Last night, I attempted to WILD. After a couple of minutes, boom, it's morning. You'll just need patience my friend. And if you think that the Transition Phase(sleep paralysis) is taking longer than it should be(maybe, after 5minutes), I suggest you start imagining the dream setting instead of waiting for SP to fade out. Imagine the place you want to be in, then, start engaging yourself into it.

Just keep up the good work my friend. If you do still have some questions, feel free to reply back. Hope this helps
