Thread: #1 Misconception about WILD

The reason is because even though when you go to sleep normally & you naturally move and find a comfy spot, during those times you're not entirely aware of your moving. However when you're WILDing you're conscious enough to notice every twitch, and trying to STAY conscious the whole time. If you're conscious of it the whole time it would make it harder for your body to sleep. Just like how you wont fall asleep while you're walking even if your mind in a very meditative state.

Hmm, i have to admit, I don't think that staying still is entirely necessary either. I've tried to remain completely frozen on multiple occassions, and every time I'm able to stay still for at least twenty minutes. Every time I've attempted this I just get restless, and my focus shifts to how uncomfortable my body is.

I think that for some people, staying still might work, but for others, it doesnt.

I think it all depends on what exactly you do when you move, if you gently move your leg to get more comfortable then I don't think it will effect your WILD at all. If you however violently kick your legs around and scratch furiously at your itch then ya, your gonna wake your body up. It's all about how it's done. I like to imagine that my conscious mind is separate from my body and is floating rihgt above it. It tends to work for me!!

Awesome! Another Canadian!

For many the idea of focusing on laying still just keeps them awake. They stay alert and expect something to happen ranther than relaxing and shifting awareness. Granted my WILDs have be done just as I exited sleep but as I woke before them I know how it feels to be in the zone. Most of the time when I've felt vibrations I failed it as I expected to fall into a dream. In my expereince it's all about forgetting about your body and just going with it.

Then again, I only have expereinces in WILDs from which I wake up for a brief moment. It's a DEILD I guess but I try not and get all the lucid dreaming jargon muddled.

I'm confused. I have learned that WILD is entering a lucid dream through the use of SP. If WILD has nothing to do with SP, then what is WILD? How/what do you do?
