Last night, my first serious attempt to have a lucid dream, I think I almost managed to enter a sleeping state using WILD.
I’d spent almost the entire day doing reality checks and mentally training myself to remind myself that I’m dreaming; and I’ve been having fairly vivid dreams for the past week. So last night, I was laying in bed going through some silly mantra to remind myself to dream when I felt like my hands were exceedingly light–now I’m quite familiar with how I fall asleep and everything, and this is rare. It was as if my body was becoming lighter, and my mind was trying to escape… something like that.
But being a skeptical person by nature, I just thought I was cutting the bloodflow to my arms because they were above my head and moved them; the sensation disappeared altogether and I felt a lot more awake at the same time.
So in the end I didn’t have a lucid dream, but I did have two fairly vivid dreams! The question is, though… is this what WILD is supposed to feel like?
