Ssild Without The Mini Cycles

Is it ok to try it without the mini cycles before?

It is okay but may cause unnecessary strain. The quick cycles can put you near a trance very quickly. You will know you are near a trance because staring behind your eyelids becomes much more effortless. The darkness will start to form depth. Without the quick cycles you may end up straining you eye muscles too much.

is it ok to take a small break form ld?

Not only is it okay, it's preferable to do that. You don't want to stress yourself. Take a relaxed approach.

how long should a quick one be?

It can be just a few seconds. You don't have to be exact.

Sometimes after I do SSILD, i go to sleep thinking I did badly or something and I won't ld. How do I get over these thoughts.

With practice they will go away. Besides it doesn't really matter with SSILD. You do the cycles sufficiently you will get LDs. It's that simple.

Thank you. BTW, I was wondering, if I try SSILD and then wake up again an hour after doing it and it doesn't work, would you recommend trying it again?
