WILD failed

[Rocketman]

Some days ago, I've tried to WILD, however, after a few minutes I slept. When I woke, I was in SP and I throught the I just wasted my time. So I tryed open my eyes I did a RC. I was in the real world. After that I looked the clock to know what time it was and it was 14:20 aprox., ten minutes after attempting to WILD. It was the first time I've got so near to LD >.< How can I prevent this from happening again?

You probably just drifted off a little during your WILD. Don't give up if this happens. You can dip in and out of sleep during your WILD. Just reaffirm your intentions, and start again. Normally, it is easy to slip back into a hypnagogic/ sleep paralysis state after you've just been in one.

You have to stay aware. The point of WILD is retaining your consciousness into sleep, so you have to remember to stay focused and aware. You should continue to practice WILDs to familiarize yourself with how SP feels and how to deal with it when you get to it.
