You know when you enter it when you can't move your body parts. In order to enter it your body must be fully relaxed and you have to tune into your inner conscious. Do relaxation exercises in order to relax your body with this. Try and focus on your breaths and relax all your muscles. A good way to do this is by flexing all your muscle groups and do it until they're tired. Then stop and let them relax without moving them. Remember if you move any muscle groups you have the risk of having to restart the whole paralysis process. You have to have patience and wait.
This is not applicable to the typical SP experienced during WILD.

What he is describing is REM atonia, which is not the same as the experiences housed under the working, LDing community definition of sleep paralysis.

Check this out if you want to read a short, decent reference on exactly what you can expect from a WILD attempt.
