Allright guys, I've finally managed to enter sleep paralysis for the first time! I could definitely feel my whole body vibrating and could hear audio hallucinations. However, it lasted only for about 30 seconds to a minute, and then the sleep paralysis just went away. What am i doing wrong? How do i enter a dream from the sleep paralysis state? |

Congratulations! |

A wild attempt can easily be combined with a WBTB, and it should indeed make it a lot easier to pull off (As OneiroMoon indeed pointed out) |
|
okay, what i have understood is that you need to sleep but staying in the most light state of consciousness without getting excited (that gets you too conscious) nor falling asleep, i think that is the point where people need to stand |
|
My WILD'ing is very random, I'll have a WILD every day for almost a week, and then I'll have a dry spell for 2 weeks or so (which is the phase I'm at right now), and one thing I can tell any complete noobie (since I am still new to LD'ing myself) is to not try too hard if you are doing WILD's, as they have never worked for me when I try too hard. And the question about sleep paralyis, you are either getting too excited and waking yourself up or not even actually in sleep paralysis. |

Next time, whenever your SP ends, just open your eyes calmly. Most likely the moment you open them everything or at least Something will seem odd (ex. blurry vision, movements everywhere in the room, vibrations in the wall), but whatever you do don't think you've failed just because your SP ended. That's what happened with me, SP would come, it would end and I would think that I failed and end up waking up. Turns out they were false awakenings. |

Hi there my friend, |
|
Hmm.. I think it also depends on how relaxed your mind is? |

Always, no sometimes think it's me,
But you know I know when it's a dream
I think I know I mean a yes
But it's all wrong
That is I think I disagree

How does it feel when you get a SP? |

My Sp has never gone over 30 seconds, usually it will range from 5-20 seconds. It doesn't matter how long it lasts, what matters is that you at least do an RC when you think it's ended just to make sure. Eventually your mind will condition itself to do it on its own after so many times of trying and sooner or later you'll find yourself in a lucid state after every Sp you enter. |

A dry spell is (in this context) a period of time without a single Lucid Dream. |

Lol no, it's like a period of LD deprivation between periods in which you did have a lot of LDs |
