WILD Counting Anchor becomes ineffective?

[MisakaMikoto]

Hi Guys Some time ago like few weeks ago i've started using anchor which was counting 0..1..2..0..1..2..0... At first week of using it aswell with help of Mzzkc's guide I had 4 -5 lucid dreams but then this anchor started to become ineffective and i've ended up again falling asleep without consciousness most of time while using it during wbtb I've thought about switching onto sivason's way aka counting till my mind wanders and then starting over but i'm not sure Maybe i've started counting the wrong way Aswell i'm confused about those things: - How am i suppose to do the counting (Should i make this anchor automatic thought process that will go on without my interaction in mind or should i count manually but without use of too much mental focus or brainpower or maybe other way?) - Should i switch over sivason's way or keep on 0,1,2 way but do it somewhat correctly because i might've been doing it the wrong way - Should i let my mind wander and let the random thoughts flow but keep anchor below them or keep anchor above them? Help would be really great I feel like i've messed up somewhere on my road with WILD but i ain't sure where and how And i have way too low expirence to figure out and possiblities are endless - Thanks Edit: I think i've maybe figured something out Maybe when we use automatic counting anchor it needs same taking care like pain anchor We need to play with noticing it like we do with pain anchor (not too much, not too little a balance to be consciousness and fall asleep) Let's say if we'd get song stuck in head we'd be able to fall asleep without problems thought it would play throught long time while falling asleep Same goes for automatic anchors, It's placed in background of mind, we don't give conscious attention to it, our mind falls asleep So we can probably do WILD Mental Anchors the two ways: - Automatic with giving x amount attention to it - Manual while making sure that it won't disrupt our sleep and keep our mind's too busy I might be incorrect with this speculation thought
