So, I've been trying this out; when I am tired, I will try to "observe" my thoughts and the pale green images floating around my closed eyes. When I observe my thoughts, I mean not thinking, but listening to random phrases in my head and not focusing on them. After a while of doing this I can fall into a dream, but I am not sure how I still be aware without thinking.

Any suggestions for WILDs or DILDs? Whenever I am DILDing, I am instantly aware that I am dreaming without RC.
