Hey everybody, been a while since I was active on the forum, I've had some sleep issues and gave up, but I'm back and ready for LDing.

Anywho, I've always liked the idea of a WILD, not only is it cool than you can choose when to WILD and not question wether or not you will become lucid like with DILD, but I think it's really cool that we can conciously see a dream form and go into it. To me it's like a super natural power going into another world or something lol.

Ive read every guide on WILDs known to man, and yet I can't understand it. How are we supposed to fall asleep while we retain conciousness via "anchor"

I've attempted WILDs many of times and everytime I end up giving up after 45 minutes or so with maybe some slightly numb legs or hands but nothing more. Occasionally I will end up falling asleep. It seems to me that I can't find the fine line between to much awareness and to little. I've tried listening to white noise, dull pain, counting my breaths and a few others.

Any advice on how to not lay there with to much awareness or fall asleep with to little?


-Thanks for any replies.
