First off hello everyone I am new to the site and relatively new to ld'ing. I have had 3 DILDs in my life and 2 came in the past month which has encouraged me to try to gain increased control and frequency over my dreams.

Recently I have decided to practice WILDing because I feel as though you can have more control and if you get good at it a really high frequency of lds.

So last night I attempted my first WILD. I woke up 5 hours into my sleep naturaly (but I still had to turn my alarm off that was going to ring in 10 minutes) I turned on my back and focused clearing my mind. There were several issues that I kept having. First off when I focused really hard I frequently held my breath as well. Secondly my internal voice kept poping through. After 15 minutes I turned to my side and started seeding ideas. I had trouble with this at first (maybe I wasn"t calm enough yet?) but eventually I was able to get one. I watched it for awhile and was beginning to be lulled into it when I realized there was a loud buzzing in my ears and my entire body was tingling. I pulled myself out of the vision and focused as hard as I could on the sensation. Unfortunately i got excited and I felt my heartbeat pick up and my breathing got faster. I tried to control it but it must have woken me back up and the buzzing and tingleing faded away. How close was I to a WILD? Was that just the beginning stages or was I well on my way? Any advice on any parts of my attempt would be very helpful!
