[WILD] My eyes stay open

This is the topic to discuss what the title says :wink: Several topics with the same subject have been merged into this one, all dealing with eyes opening during WILD

My eyes open too! Its so annoying…and then I have to physically roll them back and thats quite ackward you know. :neutral:

Geez WILD’ing requires so much effort! :cool_laugh:

This is a problem of my mine as well. Any suggestions?

I find that if I relax my face enough, this no longer becomes a problem. Other than that, just try not to pay attention on it. Just focus on your WILD method instead.

Um. Wow. I can honestly say I haven’t had this problem unless I try it while sleeping without WBTB. Reason being, I’m so tired after WBTB, my eyes practically shut themselves.

Noo! I think autosuggest takes the most work. Ironic, no?

Well if its not the eyes doing something, its my face getting really itchy! and that only happens during WILD. :bambi:

Hi guys and gals :hugs:

I have this problem when i try to WILD, that when my eyes are relaxed, they’re slightly open, which sorta hinders my sleep, as you can guess. I dunno why they do it, but i can just see out when i’m trying to sleep. Anyone else get this problem?

I got it once, but has happened since then.

what do you mean?

i get it too. Start getting pretty far into it and your eyes slip open and you think you’re getting into a dream. But its actually your eyes a little bit open and you seeing the inside of your room.

Try thinking less about dreaming and more about sleep. Try the WBTB method, get at least 4 hours of sleep before you start thinking about Ld’ing. It helped for me.

Yeah, I once thought that I was dreaming but my eyes were actualy open!! :nuu:

I’ve been having this problem too… i wake up in the middle of the night naturlaly:P and i could so easily to WBTB… but for some reason im just like, okay im awake . REmember, gotta lucid dream Snore … i can never keep myself in those moments… i devised a plan tonight where i wrote a note and put it over my alarm clock that i have to do my dream diary and then try WILD before sleeping, instead of just drifting off again.
i think the WBTB will help with the eyes opening beucase ill be more tired and they’ll stay closed easier.

I feel my eyes open every time i get really close to doing a WILD. Then i have to focus on keeping them closed and then i feel myself fully awake again. its really annoying

I deal with this by relaxing my eyes alot more and I say before doing the WILD process “My eyes will remain closed”, Since it’s your sub-concous’nes opening them it’s believable it won’t close them.

my eyes open too but sometimes i dont notice it at first becuase my room is pitch black…its anoying and weird

I usually were doing RC but on my second try to do WILD I noticed my eyelids started to spasm on its own. I fought my eyes were moving but soon my eyes opened a little and I had to woke up to close them. Why it happened?

This happens to me also, I am able to open my eyelids without any effort and feels like I’m not even sleepy anymore. :cry:
