      Thumbs up

      this is something i did a few years ago when i started with LD.
      nevertheless i changed the method after sometime of trying because my mind told me if i wanted to fly i had to go trough the top although SUB seemed a lot easier for me. after a while i forgot it...now it´s here again

      your method has another advantage:
      thinking of an other world under your bed influences your subconsciousness, so WILDing becomes easier after some time of practise IMO.

      thanks for your input...i´m gonna try this (again) in some minutes.

      I'll definitely give this a shot since (like a previous member posted in here) I get a falling sensation when I shift into SP. So I could use this to my advantage to imagine than I am falling through my bed to a "gateway".

      Ive been practicing this technique every night and I have some refinements.

      I have imagined a trapdoor under my bed leading into the dreamworld, but lately I have been having more success with forgetting that the room around me is even there, and imagining that my bed is sort of flying through the sky of the dreamworld. I imagine the dreamworld with a birdseye view and then do the SUB.

      Also, It has been easier to do the SUB in my experience when I imagine myself getting very heavy and I imagine the bed bending in the middle to make a sort of hammock. It helps to imagine the bed as elastic and very stretchy. The farther I can stretch the bed down with my weight, the better. When I go through the bed I imagine it springing back to where it was while I am under it in the dream world

      Wink I'm going to try this tonight :)

      I'm going to try this, but instead of falling through my bed I'm going to try rolling off it into a trapdoor because I always get that sensation when I'm falling asleep

      fly, either on something I summoned or by myself: Completed 12/16/09
      Breath underwater or become a mermaid

      Ugh. It failed, but it's probably because I tried to WILD too, and I got too freaked out and so I just fell asleep normally
