ok… last night i was listening to Brainwave mind Voyages - Lucid Dreaming - Trance induction mp3 (thanks to carbon copy) and let me tell you what happened… as instructed i was relaxed with my eyes closed concetrating on the shifting patterns of light and darkness behind my closed eyes… about 7-8 mins into it when you get deeper and deeper inducted i started feeling my body was spinning around and falling… for a good 3-4 mins all i could feel was my body spinning and falling… i didnt want to move my body becuse i thought i would loose this interesting feeling. THEN… [whilst still concetrating on the patterns] i seemed to enter into the darkness behind my eyes… as if the dark space opened up to me and took over my whole field of vision… i could still feel the spinning and falling as this happened… i was still also concentrating on his voice as he was guiding me
i was very interested in this and i am definately going to try it again tonight.
i need your help… can you tell me what this means?.. was i close to concoiusly entering into my dreams?
Thanks,
Slash
PS. i was formely known as brad345… i kind of left the forums for a while cause i lost interest due to lack of success but im back and ready to retry bcoming a lucid dreamer.
No idea,but guessing it could be form of Wild…entering dreamstate alike conciously.
I post here cuz i just wanna say that i want it,i want it i want it:)
Definitly sounds like WILD. The only thing I can think of why you entered darkness is that you were having trouble with actaully stepping into a scene. I have never heard of going into an actual scene of darkness if you have no images forming.
I would just keep trying it. Try it after doing WBTB. Doing WBTB makes images form a lot easier because if you wake up after six hours of sleep and try to go back to bed, your brain will be in a mode that is ready to dream and you will be able to see vivid scenes when you are trying to do WILD. Makes it a lot easier to step into them and find yourself in the scene.
the darkness i described was basically the blackness behind my eyes… i had really hard time forming images, they just wouldnt appear for me. the darkness just kind of widened and opened up more…
best i can really describe it… i could still feel my body, and that feeling.
i had the exact same experience again last nite… i had to cut it short tho cause i had a massive pain in my shoulder (nothing to do with the wild). but i cant seem to get passed that experience… any helpful tips would be much apreciated…
Jah, i have that same CD. Anyhow, i used to experiment with it a lot. I did have a few very vivid dreams as a result of falling asleep to its monatra. I also experienced that state of relaxation, which is all i think it is.
When i was young i used to close my eyes and relax. I would be spinning around doing backflips, looking into the cosmos. That was when i was young anyhow.
What that CD did for me was relax me and got me back to the conscious floaty place that i used to go as a child before sleep. My body would buzz from the CD too… but i never got a WILD or whatever.
