WILD Help Please

[Soul]

I have been trying to do WILD every day for about a week but when I try WILD like it says you should (lying completely still on my back) I can't get to sleep. It took me 3 hours to get to sleep yesterday (I did get to HI but got up after it but I was awake). What can I do about actually getting to sleep (kinda) faster? PS. I am trying to do it without WBTB and I have done it before, just need help getting to sleep and the HI

You don't necessarily have to lay on your back. Lie in a comfortable sleeping position. Lie completely still and let your mind wonder. Think about anything and everything. Don't focus too much on your thoughts, just passively let them pass in and out of your mind. Make sure you stay aware during this. Soon enough your thoughts will start to form images and pictures in your "mind's eye." This is called HI (hypnagogic imagery). Once this happens SP shall set in. Just passively watch the HI and relax. Remain as calm as possible and your dream scene should begin to form around. Good Luck!
