I tried WILD last night, woke after 6 hours, recalled a dream, wrote it down, came on dreamviews for 15 minutes or so then went back to bed. Tried the breathing method, counting '1 I am dreaming, 2 I am dreaming etc' tried for about 20-30 minutes doing this. Nearly entered SP I think, the edges of my eyelids were flashing white light and felt a couple of waves go down my legs but then I needed to swallow, which I think ruined everything!

Things I will do differently next time:
1. Wake earlier, maybe 5.30 hrs into sleep as 6 hours seemed to be right after an REM phase, where as far as I understand, it would be best to wake before REM.
2. Not stay awake for so long, maybe limit to 15 minutes as I did feel quite awake and after I determined WILD was a fail I had a hard time falling asleep again.
3. Try not to swallow or something!

Any other tips would be great!
