Can t fall asleep

**Jmanjordan** · 08-15-2012 02:25 PM

I can't fall asleep when I try to do wild. My mind is clear and I get past sp. I start to hear sounds. I don't fall asleep after that. Help

Try focusing just a tad bit less on the sounds/anything you are using. You have to find the correct balance of consciousness when preforming any form of WILD so if you're having trouble falling asleep give up a little focus. The inverse works as well.

Okay I was able to fall asleep.. That was about it. I guess I gave up too much focus. But its weird even if I stay focused I never enter a dream. I know I ve passed sp because I can't move my arms or legs.

If you don't pay any attention to your body, the process of falling asleep will be much smoother

. Your anchor is what keeps you aware, while your internal world takes shape. As i see it; awareness is the key, focusing might be overdoing it.

Good luck, Tucane

You can always try earlier, try staying up less, I can't imagine that you would be able to stay awake after only 5 hours of sleep and zero wake up time, so you've got to start experimenting with that until you get it just right. You can also let your mind drift a little so long as the anchor is still there in your line of focus.
