I was reading that in order to WILD, you've got to wake up and do something for an hour or so (i.e.: reading a book, reading your dream journal) and I'm wondering how necessary this part is? Does everyone do this.. or is it something the author of that article recommends?

I'd like to try WILDing tonight, but if I have to stay awake for an hour before even being able to WILD well then..
