It is amazing how little a difference you notice when you do it right, I don't remember a single moment between consciousness and being in the dream, its so hard to explain. When you do actually focus on relaxing and stop constantly thinking about SP, it is such an amazing experience, nothing like all of those SP horror stories on reddit.

Thanks again for helping me achieve my first fully successful WILD !
There you go! Haha wow I am glad that it inspired you. And well done!
That's the thing, the reality you focus on is the one you are in. So al you have to do is to shift focus but it's easiest to do when one is relaxed.
People who experience scary moments in the transition either have lots of fears on their mind or their state of awareness is in fear.
Which is a second reason to why it's important to relax.

Isn't that great? The lucid dreaming transition is not induced by doing something, it's induced by doing nothing!
But in our busy lives we just forget how to just BE and let go.
