      Give Me A WILD Technique to Try Tonight!

      I want to try to spice things up a bit and try some different techniques. Usually my main techniques for WILDing is the basic DEILD technique or falling asleep while visualizing myself at work.

      Looking for responses that include
      - counting (different then 1,2,3 or counting with mantras)
      - visualizing
      - tactile sensations
      - breathing
      - etc

      not looking for responses that include
      - stay still, resist all urges to scratch
      - 1 i am dreaming, 2 i am dreaming, repeat

      Supposedly counting backwards helps a lot. It takes a little more thought than counting forward and keeps you a little more aware. It really depends on how you arebdoing with WILD, are you falling asleep unconscious? Or are you staying too conscious that you aren't falling asleep? You can adjust WBTB times and different mental exercises till you find optimum point for you to WILD. It is a very personal thing really. Have you read all the guides on here? Mzzkc's guides are really good. I can link if you need them.

      Also, my own little WILD variation. Try falling. Just imagine yourself doing flips. Any sort really. Spinning down a hill. Rolling. On a trampoline doing flips. Preferably a flip you have done countless times like rolling down a hill. Imagine it. Imagine the feelings and the gravity shifting. This seems to keep my mind awake enough to go into a dream, yet asleep enough to fall asleep.

      Usually i fail at WILDs because i fall asleep unconscious. I am familiar with pretty much all the guides on here. Will try flipping even though i cannot do flips in my dreams

      I mean flips in real life. go roll down a hill or something. You need something to occupy your mind more. Stay awake longer in WBTBs. Keep changing times until you find it! The flipping thing should help occupy more than counting. I am always like 99, 98, 97, Q, Q, Q, the batman symbol... Another Q.

      I use this method a lot too. I notice when I try to imagine myself doing somersaults and front flips, you get the sensations that helps you fall asleep aware. Sometimes I'll be visualising it, then sooner or later I feel the sensations and BAM. WILD.
