Thanks Andres! I've been incorporating rc's into my daily routine more and more. My favorite is to look at my left hand and really become aware of my calluses that firm just below my wedding ring. I get to a point in my technique where I think I might be lucid, but I'm to afraid to just "stand up" because if I'm not, then I have to start all over again. I'm clueless as to what sp actually feels like. I get completely numb, but never to a point where I couldn't move if I wanted to. I think my main problem is just that I haven't become lucid yet and so I just don't know what it is or how to identify it or even if I'm on the right track. I'm hoping that just tons of repetition will eventually pay off. I'm the kind of person that once I've done something one time, I can do it again the next time easily, but I just need that once.
SP and HH usually go hand in hand. I almost use them interchangeably, but HH describes my WILDing experiences more accurately, and they usually mark my transition to dreaming. Numbness itself is not quite SP nor HH I believe. I think you are taking the right steps, but might me worrying too much about it to the point where it hinders your ability to LD, whether through DILD or WILD. I would suggest giving yourself a small break, think a week or so, of no WBTB alarms or dream journaling (don't worry, you will get your recall back right away once you start recording them again). That's my suggestion, but feel free to not take it. Good luck!
@Rendar - It sounds like you are making some nice progress from your post in another thread and I think that you had two lucid moments that night based on what I read there! Sageous gave you some excellent advice and if you decide to take his suggestion of going the DILD route, you (and anyone reading this) are more than welcome to start a DILD workbook. FryingMan (mentioned by Sageous in that thread) and myself help run the DILD workbooks.
Its so good to be surfing the net and find a resource one has never seen before. This forum thread is great. I am an active ld and obe practitioner for many years. I am inclined to do this during the night as I awake a few times and can go to sleep or WILD if I want. However this seems like a gentle back to sleep inducement method that may be easer or more interesting to experience. The trick seems to be cycling the see, hear, feel without any other practice and ease into the WILD or ld once asleep. I can DILD as well so lets see if this is any different, easier or more interesting.
Had the first LD in a While thanks to the SSILD, my last one was 10 months ago, I left the LD away for a long time but I'm back on it since 10 days ago.
I usually use SSILD to fall asleep when I have an insomnia.
Generally my insomnia are near the beginning of the night, or near the middle, so they are never just followed by some REM sleep.
Hence, SSILD never induces a LD, but this night I was doing it after 6 h of sleep.
This insomnia lasted about 50 min, I struggled against the envy of get out of bed, and tried several times SSILD without being able to go back to sleep until I try something slightly different:
Instead of focusing on each sense during two breathing (which makes about 15 secs) I made it last 4 breathing for each sens.
I didn't wait long before falling asleep, and then, the dream was just at its beginning I just realize I'm dreaming, without any particular reason.
I opened the window of this unknown hostel and flew in the air. wow , I missed this feeling.
That's the way SSILD made me be lucid in the past : you become lucid for no reason, there is just this moment you know you are dreaming.
