Last night I attempted the WILD technique (without WBTB). It was my first attempt at Lucid Dreaming in general, so I wasn't exactly sure what to do.

Regardless, I spent about 5-10 minutes in a meditative state ignoring any inclinations to move my body. After about 10 minutes in I began having images randomly pop into my head (though they weren't distinct and lasted only a split second) along with colors and ideas in general. I tried to ignore the images (which only now I learn was actually the opposite of what I should have), and I began feeling as if my body was unable to move. I then got nervous and decided to move my arm to end it.

For a true Sleep Paralysis, should it be possible to move your body? In the state I had put myself in, I couldn't really move anything, but it was very easy just to move my arm when I wanted to stop.

Also, how do I keep from falling asleep during the WILD process? I actually followed many of the techniques I read about in Adam's guide without knowing about it (falling backwards) to great success, but I'm unsure of how to actually enter into a dream without falling asleep.

That wasn't as quick as I intended. Thanks anyhow!
