Thread: Too much energy..

Hey. This has been happening every time I try to do a WILD this past week. I settle down, sometimes listen to binaural beats, and start relaxing until my body feels heavy and i can hardly move it. As I relax more and more and do concentration excersizes, I get this feeling that I just HAVE to move. It feels almost like a surge of energy, and its such a strong feeling that I just have to give in and move. I have no clue what the problem is, maybe I need to ground myself to get rid of excess energy, or maybe I have some type of problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated

dont move..... your body is testing your mind it is all a figment of your imagination i get this everytime i try a WILD also...it is incredibly frustrating but so worth it once you have a WILD

ah wow, i didnt think anyone had the same problem

since my body is testing me, does that mean I am pretty close to WILD'ing?

also, how long does it take for these urges to go away for you?

thanks alot

Agh, I know exactly what you mean. >.< I think reesespieces is right, though. I just never make it through the surge, my longest effort was somewhere around 30 seconds and I gave up because it is SO uncomfortable.

ugh i almost died the first time i did it i laid there for like an hour ... and i almost moved like a million times you are incredibly close to WILDing when you are extremely close you kind of start to have an OBE your body starts to feel like a dead weight and it feels like your mind just starts to drift up....kinda what is feels like, oh and also when you feel pressure on your cheast don't open your eyes you will see the old hag...and you don't want to ask if you have any more questions

old hag????

"Old Hag Syndrome" sometimes referred to as "Night Hag" is another commonly used term for SP among many different cultures mainly in the western world. The term Old Hag is probably derived from a couple of sources, one being the word for Nightmare; Night -of course, we know this already, Mare being derived from the old English term Maere meaning demon or incubus (an incubus is believed to be a demon that visits during the night). Other sources as listed by Dr. J. A. Cheyne, University of Waterloo Psych. Dept include German mar/mare, nachtmahr, Hexendr&#252;cken (witch pressing), Alpdruck (efl pressure), Czech muera, Polish zmora, Russian Kikimora, French cauchmar (trampling ogre), Greek ephialtes (one who leaps upon) and mora (the night "mare" or monster, ogre, spirit, etc.), Roman incubus (one who presses or crushes) ge, (evil spirit or the night-mare--also hegge, haegtesse, haehtisse, haegte); Old Norse mara, Old Irish mar/more.
