Thanks for the advice. I had 6 hours of sleep before I woke up, then I stared at my computer screen for most of the 45 minutes... I think that woke me up too much. I'll try with a little less sleep beforehand, maybe 4-5 hours, then I'll try it again.

No problem. I have found that with very little sleep, I cant focus at all, or sometimes not even wake up to the beeping, and with too much sleep, I cant get back to sleep, or deep enough sleep to hit rem. So, its a delicate process lol... But there is no doubt the method works....

I'll try it tonight! Owo Though I'll be using headphones xD I don't want to wake up everyone else in my family as well ^^'
I've found out that the least I have to sleep is 5hours... otherwise I wouldn't be able to wake up even with an alarm clock =_= So 6 hours should be enough ^_^

Sounds good, keep me posted on the results.. ttyl

I slept an hour too long because my brother came in and annoyed me =_= So I've slept 7 hours so far, I'll be going back to sleep soon. Hope I succeed!

how did it go

It didn't go too well... When I went back to sleep, my brother was using the computer in my room and it was hard to fall asleep because of the sounds ;_; I also wasn't all that tired(which is sort of rare after only 7hours of sleep)
I did manage to fall asleep a few times later, but then my other brother woke up as well...=_= They usually sleep longer in weekends...
Either way, I'll try going to sleep earlier and waking up for the WILD earlier tonight!

I usually do 5.5 hours of sleep. Try only staying up for like 10-15 minutes.

I think you are too awake after staying up nearly an hour. If I do that, it may take me 20 minutes to get back to sleep.

Ya, thats actually a really good idea.. it seems an hour may be too long for me too.. the other morning after an hour, i couldnt even get back to sleep at all.. 15 minutes is probably plenty..

Have you ever tried it with a nap? I'm going to try it around 4:30PM today. It's a bit late for a REM nap I suppose but I'll try anyways.

My problem with waking up after 6 hours is that my family wakes up with my alarm so I'd have to sleep at 3AM to ensure that I won't wake them after my 6 hours of sleep :_( oh well...

I have heard that it works quite well with a nap, let me know how it goes plz

Didn't nap.. got a hold of Resident Evil 4 before

Heheheh.


Drink lots of water before you go to bed so you wake up early.

I went to bed last night on 3 hours of sleep, woke up at 630 am, stayed up for 30 minutes.. then I went back to sleep using the Can-Wild timer method, meaning, I went back to sleep but set a timer to wake me up in different intervals, Also, I reminded myself out loud several times that I was going to have a lucid dream, then I went to sleep.... I woke up a couple times normal and went back to sleep although very groggy... then the alarm woke me up again, and I didn't even open my eyes, I just laid there for a minute.. I felt my legs getting very heavy, feeling that this was were SP was probably starting... before I felt full SP, I was in a lucid dream in my living room... and fully conscious... Things started fading.. and I was back in my bed... feeling the scorn of the failed attempt, I laid there motionless thinking about what had just happened, and suddenly I find myself once again in my living room completely lucid... So I ran outside to my parking lot to look for something to drive lol... there was an old broken down Bmw, and next to it was a 69 Camaro (one of my fav cars), things were kind of hazy though, So i asked for clarity, and everything gets crystal clear, HD, in a sense, much better clarity than even in real life it seemed... So I walk over to the car.. and there is a guy sitting in a lawn chair type chair next to it talking on his cell phone.. I open the door, and get in the car.. but there are no keys... so I say to myself, I will make keys appear in the backseat.. I turn around and there are a set of shiny keys... I start it up.. and the dream starts fading again... I woke up in bed again.. I wasn't feeling very tired anymore though.. I think I just happened to hit the end of my REM cycle... I laid there a little longer but couldn't go back to sleep... So i got up for the day.. I guess this is a wild Lucid, but I was really hoping for an OBE... Also, everything visually was incredible once I asked for Clarity.. but I can't recall having very good sense of touch.. but I also forgot to rub my hands together, touch things, or do anything that is supposed to really tune into those senses... better luck next time I guess... but I got 2 WILDS from this... both short, but I am getting better!

Hey! I know the timer since some 3-4 days, but I only used one time. I failed because when I started the timer, it beeped the first beep (lol) when I was still awake and I tried it 3 more times and nothing... Couldnt fall asleep before the first beep... I gave up... do you use the 8-4-8... interval? I think that I have to wake up more early and be awake less time because I took 30 minutes to fall asleep and that was very boring :S

Ya, its called Ramp 4, it is the 8-4-8 one.. I found it works even better for me if I dont stay up 45-60 mins, but instead stay up about 15 minutes, just enough that I start feeling more awake, then set the alarm and lay back down... usually by the time the first beep comes im not asleep, so i reset it, usually im asleep by the first time it goes off again.. but this seems to work the best for me.. let me know how it works for you.

Hey I tried the timer for 2 nights and I could fall asleep. The only prob was in the 20 min interval. In both tries I moved there... maybe the urge to move was too strong... but Il try more times till I make it

Ya, definitely give it another shot... Even if you do move, just lay perfectly still once you have woken up and you will feel SP soon thereafter since you were already just sleeping....

This method yielded me yet another 2 Lucid Dreams this morning. If you are in doubt of this method, give it a shot

Hey atkins, I tried the timer this night and I don't know what the hell happened! I woke up naturally at 5 AM and put the timer on. This time I could fall asleep in time ^^ but later when I was sleeping I seemed to wake up one hour after the start of the mp3 ( middle of the first 20 min interval) (as always and I didnt watch the hours because I always wake up past one hour) and then I felt really strange! As I was sleeping on my stomach, my arms began to strech and I felt intense vibrations then I dont know what happened but I think that I woke up ( or Im in doubt if I was entering SP and I fell asleep in the middle of the process because I never entered SP) and I was in my normal position. So what the hell happened? Did I dream about SP? Because it felt very real and if it was a dream, I was lucid... But nevermind Il try it again tonight.

Let me know because it sounds like something was going on there.. may have even been a false awakening... but let me know how it goes tonight...

This technique yielded me yet another 6 lucid dreams last night. This technique along with chaining and I had 6 lucid dreams in a row.. let me know if anyone else tries it.

Hey thanks for the reply! Just awesome! Yeah it may be a FA... Tried it tonight 2 times. I was so sleepy that when the first or second beep came in I imediately turned it off then I thinked (damn it xD) tried the second time but I dont remember much. But I remember trying to spin in a dream because it was very foggy... I will try this tonight again and Il try to go to sleep more early this time.
