Thread: **CrazyInSane's WILD tutorial!!**

Does it matter if you have 2 alarms? like the first goes off after 7 hours of sleep, then the second after 7 and 45 mins. That way you get 2 chances. Or will this somehow make things worse? what you reckon?

I'm very, very new to this and I've found your tutorial extremely helpful, but I have a quick question-Can you explain the part where you talked about doing the "rolling" technique and the other stuff that you mentioned for whenever you are trying to go back into the dream?

Wow, that technique is amazing!! I finally managed to have a WILD or whatever! I have some advice to give since it wasn't my first try at this technique, but it is by far the easiest and the fastest, during my previous attemp I was always falling asleep right after the alarm and sometimes the alarm wasn't waking me up. So what I did yesterday, right before going to sleep I told myself that when I'll hear the alarm I will become fully aware and will wake my mind as much as I can. I said that a multiples times and when the alarm went off this morning I immediatly knew what to do. I focused to stay awake and I started to tell me another mantra "1. I'll be Lucid dreaming soon"..."2. I'll be lucid dreaming soon" when I reached 10 I started to feel the SP which was kind of scary but I knew it was only some HH, after everything was done I got up and BOOM that was my most Vivid/Lucid/long LD ever!! This technique is pretty easy but you still need some preparation to succeed at it so be aware!!

Thanks CrazyInsane :3

Excellent!! So happy to hear about your success with this method. I read your dream journal, thanks for the link to my tech!

I was going to add something about this in the original post, but unfortunately I am no longer able to edit the post, the option is grayed out. Indeed, it is definitely helpful to have the alarm go off more than once. The more times it goes off, the better chance you have of succeeding. It should also help with your dream recall and help you have more DILDs. Thanks for bringing this up.

You should include using the mantra as part of your original tutorial!

Indeed, I wish I could, I'm still trying to get a response from an administrator about reinstating the ability for me to edit the original post. As soon as I get that option (if that ever happens), I'll be sure to add this and all other tips and recommendations that have been mentioned.

When you transition to the sleep state, you will automatically realize that something is different. You should feel the "ability" to roll over or move out of your bed using your "dream body". If you never get that feeling, it may be that you have not entered the sleep state and are not progressing. When you enter the sleep state, you should feel "buzzing" sensations and other odd phenomena. When trying to incubate a dream, you can also try visualization, which is where you try to imagine a dream, and you should eventually become enveloped by a dream scene and be able to "join" or "become part" of the scene. Good luck!

This is sort of the way I used to do it. Except what I did was I made an mp3 file with about 5 hours of silence, then a loud noise for about 2 or 3 seconds. All I did was let it run on my laptop next to me and go to sleep. Except I would just call it "an easier way to wake up for DEILD", lol.

But, this is a very well put together tutorial, and I know the technique is very effective. Although, I could never be bothered messing about with my stupid mp3 file, it would sometimes crash or something. But that software you have provided would do just the trick. So thanks a lot.

When the alarm went off, I didn't move at all. So that worked lol. But my heart started racing really fast because I was really excited. Is there any way to keep this from happening? Anyways, I think the alarm helped because the next dream I had was a lucid.

That happens to me sometimes, too. The more you do it, the more you'll get used to it, and the less you'll freak out when you wake up. Just keep at it.

I think that the rolling part means that when you have been in Sleep paralysis for a while and you are uncertain over whether you are awake or asleep and you get out of your body into a dream.

Just like physically sitting up in bed or rolling over but you find yourself in a dream, but I'm not exactly sure on when to do this, maybe just around after very vivid HI kicks in.

Right after you had the HH and the sound in your ear switched to mind hearing, you can roll over and found yourself into a dream, BUT don't let yourself trick by the realism of your environment, do some RC to make sure you're dreaming.

Okay, well I did do the rolling part and I think for the most part it worked. I was tricked at first, but then I noticed someone who shouldn't have been there and immediately realized that I was dreaming. It was short, and one of my first ones, but successful! :]

I'm loving this technique, achieved a very short WILD with it last night

I'm not going to include 1 minute lucid dreams in my sig though
haha.
