Thread: Some questions about WILD

I've been using the WILD technique for a while now, but I have some questions.

1. After I begin wilding for a bit, I see a bright, green light, and my body goes numb. My question is, is this my body going into paralysis and I'm messing up or is this natural? I only ask because my body goes numb, but I can still feel it, and this sometimes happens more than once.

2. When I actually enter the dream, I start to wake up when I try to move. I've tried some solutions such as rubbing my hands, doing math problems, and saying that I am lucid out loud but none seem to help with my immobility problem.

3. I have problems creating things. I try to make something, and start to wake up.

All help is appreciated.

Yes, that is SP. And for the creating things or not being able to move. I'm not sure. Probably just need more practice

I guess you are trying to get involved in the dream when you aren't quite in yet? You have to learn how to imagine your body moving, don't actually try to move it until you are sure you are fully in? Also, don't try to force something to appear out of thin air, try searching for it! It's the most basic method of making things, and popping them out of thin air is a bit more advanced.

Thanks for the help, guys.
