So I’m sure this has been asked before, but I’m kinda new so yeah. What if I’m trying to WILD, but I always have a song stuck in my head. Please tell me either how to get it out of my head, or how to deal with it. Or maybe it can help me out with WILDing. I don’t Know. Advice Please?
you should just try to focus on your breathing or counting 1 im dreaming 2 im dreaming. Anything that can get your mind of the song.
I used to listen to a lot of music before going to sleep, so I often found I had songs repeating in my head when trying to WILD. I found that to avoid it I could listen to some music I had not listened to yet, before going to bed. After a little practice I could just let the music go, like with other thoughts.
I also did once try to use it to WILD, there are techniques that use a mantra to stay aware. You can use song lyrics to achieve the same thing, perhaps speed-thrash metal might add some complications. Although I had hard-rock / heavy-metal lyrics repeating in my mind at the time and got to HI, so it should still be possible.
Thanks, man. i have a hard time concentrating on anything but the music when i dont count, so maybe I should.
That never works for me…sobs
Sooo, I make up a story in my head and you could relate it to Lucid Dreaming to increase your chances, you eventually get tired and fall asleep.
I’ve been making up stories to help me get to sleep since I was 6.
