Hope this helps, cj :

It went something like this: I awoke naturally somewhere between 1.30-2am and tried to do a WILD. But I was so tired that I gave up, rolled over and fell asleep. I must have had about 4 non LDs but then on the last one it just hit me in an instant that I was dreaming. I literally felt my dream eyes open and all the colours sparkled. I then flew out the window (though I got stuck in the wall at one point)

One thing I did which probably helped was to watch dramatic TV shows and at all the most tense parts I made myself do RCs. Kind of like associating the experience of heightened emotion with triggering reminders to do RCs.

Good luck!
