I’ve had to dumb down on the LD’ing due to a vast amount of work and little time to do it all. So on the odd chance I practice the vast LD’ing techniques. And admittedly I have become a lot better at at least recognizing an LD. Regardless I’m still having trouble with the WILD process.
I am better at relaxing now thanks to the help I got from others on many relaxation techniques. I can maintain awareness of the mind and stay aware while the body falls asleep. But it is at the following stage I seem to hit a block. The colors and images I’m watching don’t seem to focus up and in some cases I find myself just staring into darkness. I’m fully aware, I am also in a complete SP. Even if I wanted to moving my body would be a complete and utter task. And as I stare into the darkness I feel my eyes twitch fast. My heart beats faster but I manage to maintain a sense of calmness. I let it happen. Unfortunately though however close I seem to be to that moment where one steps into a dream, I can’t seem to actually see a dream before me. Alot of the times it’s just darkness. Then it feels like my eyes are trying to tear themselves open if nothing happens for a while.
Last night was my closest experience yet, I felt as if I could of reached into that darkness and yet couldn’t. Any suggestions? Right after this experience, the eyes stopped moving so quickly and I felt as if I was dozing off. At that moment my arm shot upwards waking me out of SP, unvolentarily.
