A: Ah yes, now we're down to the infamous swallowing. Fold a towel and place it under your head to tilt your head slightly up so that saliva can naturally slide down instead of welling up at the back of your throat. That's about 30% of the victory when it comes down to not swallowing. The other 70% is by NOT FOCUSING ON YOUR THROAT. So many people will tell me "Jeff, I can't help it...I tried so hard not to swallow but then..." Energy flows where attention goes and attention goes where energy flows. What's that mean? That means the more you focus/direct your thoughts to something, the more you're going to increase that things chances of occuring. Sort of like the law of attraction. I had the hugest problems with trying "not to swallow"...but that only ended up in me doing it more and more. Focus/direct your thoughts to something else...monitor your body passively and let it do it's job without you focusing on every aspect of what's going on...what job is that? (TO GO TO SLEEP) When I stopped focusing on my throat and tilted my head up...swallowing when attempting a WILD was never a problem for me again. In the end, if you have to swallow...let it be something that's natural where you almost don't notice it...instead of consciously debating in your mind when the urge presents itself, whether you're going to or not.

This is from one of Jeff777's tutorials. They helped me alot, I suggest you read them

Well, here's how I see it. Thinking "oh no I have to swallow" and worrying about it will disrupt your WILD a lot more than just swallowing and ignoring it. Agree or not, that's just what I see.

well the problem is that I naturally breath with my mouth so my throat becomes dry... That's why i swallow to make it less dry. i tried to breath with my nose but it is almost always blocked and i feel like I'm not getting enough air. But I'll tried to not focus on it since it will make it worst

I myself breath with my nose and swallow when needed...but that didnt help you much did it?...

I think you should breath the way you do when going to sleep and if you need to swallow then just do it and keep going along. Remember that you go into SP and dream when you go to sleep just as you do while WILDing so your mind knows you need to swallow. Dont pay to much heed to it... just go with it.

I had the same problem and it just kinda fixed its self

Hope it helps and good luck mate

Why the name of topic remind me of this ?



Anyway, breath through your mouth, will keep your tongue dry.

Looks like good WILD.

On another note, I "Always" have the saliva problem. Just try to focus on your feet or something because if you focus on it then it will happen more xD
