For WILD you just need to fall asleep while being aware, there's nice indepth tutorial here: WILD
Difference in awareness between DILDs and WILDs varies from person to person, so it's worth to try both, personally they are about the same awareness-wise for me but i seem to have better waking life recall in WILD. Also don't listen to everyone who says WILD is harder, every technique is only as hard as you make it to be, be confident and think positive, plus when you try WILD there's a good chance that you will get some DILDs along the way as well.
Also if you can find time for naps and can fall asleep during them, use them, naps are golden time for lucid dreaming.
