WILD question.

Hello everyone I'm Zain and I'm new to dreamviews, nice to meet you all! :D I have a question about lucid dreaming, the WILD technique in particular. I have been trying to Lucid dream for a while a month exactly and I haven't had a good one. I had a 10 second MILD but that was it. So I started trying to do the WILD technique. I've tried it exactly 5 times after waking up after 4, 5 and 6 hours after sleep. I never got farther than numbness. but this morning was different, I got up right after a nightmare at 11 am ( slept at 6:30 by the way)into SP but never had any vibrations so then I tried concentrating on it really hard and I felt them all over my body by then they stopped, I still felt like I was awake and I had no HI either. I fell asleep then woke up at a time I dont remember. But I heard a weird sound, it sounded like the sound a Tv or raidio makes when it has no signal or cable, to be more specific when the tv doesn't have cable and you go to any channel and its a silver screen with that annoying sound. during that time all I could see was darkness and I was half awake. Is there anything I'm doing wrong and is there anything else I can do? I apologize for the long post and my grammer. And thanks in advance!:D:D:banana::banana:

Don't Panic during Sleep Paralysis,just relax and try to float out of your bed into a dream

Hello Zain, welcome to Dream Views!

Hmm to start off, sleep paralysis is different for everyone. There may be some common elements such as buzzing and numbness, but the intensity varies from person to person. Some don't even notice sleep paralysis when they achieve a WILD! :D

I think what you experienced with the static noise was indeed sleep paralysis. Almost everytime I am in SP, I get those auditory hallucinations which sound like static noises as well as ocean sounds.

Read this guide, if you haven't already. http://www.dreamviews.com/f79/compre...5/#post1807704

I hope this helps! Good luck and happy dreaming :)

P.S. thread moved to WILD subforum

Thanks for the reply's guys, I guess I got too excited. I'm going to give it another shot next morning.

From your description, it sounds like you are doing things right. Keep practicing.

Yep, as stated you are definitely on the right track:).

Anyways, I always treat SP as the biproduct of dreaming, as it actually is. Try to get into that (hard to describe) "dreamy" state of mind and you'll be there in notime:).

Keep it up:), Tucane
