Advanced lucid dreaming: part 4

[codyhillock]

The awarness is something hard to grasp until it happens. Last night i meditated before going to bed and had a wild without even trying. I had stories going on in my head as i was dozing off and i fell asleep. I woke up under water and literally thought my house flooded. I was in the blackness and the only way i realized it was a dream is because i heard myself breathing. The a dot got bigger and bigger in front of me that was like a window to my dream. Coolest wild yet.

[pindalord]

what i try is combining the WBTB technique and the wild: so wake up somewhere in the morning that suits you, then recalling dreams and being awake for 30 mins and then go to sleep and try to wild.

[HootyInWonderLand]

@voora100 Yeah that's how I always wild, I normally just close my eyes, and wait and eventually you can kind of feel yourself being pulled out of your body and you'll pretty much be floating around as your dream is being created around you. Just keep reminding yourself that you're lucid so that once the dream is done settling, you've still got awareness and you're free to explore the dream world ^___^

[HootyInWonderLand]

I WILD aaaaalll the time. I bet DMT would be a walk in the park

[PancakeNoOtherCake]

WILD is awesome. I've had a WILD once, and its vividness was incredible. But i'm more of a DILD-type really. I just cant get regular LD's with WILD.

[CALL666SEEWHATHAPENS]

i guess ive always been a natural at this i usualy randomly wake up at nite and stay awake for a little bit and go back to sleep then i get lucid and when im lucid it feels like im lucid for like 2 hours or i stay lucid for like 1 min wake up then get lucid again for 1 min then wake up and the get lucid again for 1 min and its like 5 little short dreams i get or 1 realy long 1

[Quibbleify]

Is it 100% required that you wake up before attempting WILD? I think i have come close to achieving a WILD just before sleeping for the first time during the night.

[Reuben961]

WILD is hard. but if u get sleep paralysis sometimes u get it for free tho :P

[jordanheffley1]

i tried wild and i suddenly felt hot and started shaking a bit. is this normal

[Gator115]

@jordanheffley1

Yea while i was trying this method i started to see like different colors twirling almost as if they were portals trying to consume me, but don't try and concentrate on them. But i had to wake up cuz i got scared because my whole body starting getting really hot lol. And i was also scared about the hallucinations

[jordanheffley1]

@Gator115 lol

[Swordie100]

@lucidipedia Waarom verlies je niet dat éne uurtje slaap, als je WILD doet wanneer je 's nachts wakker wordt?

[Swordie100]

0 Dislikes. F T W

[tdaggert]

i actually find the wild to be the easiest technique especially in the afternoon

the mild is actually harder for me

[john20050]

when i wake up in the middle of the night and try the WILD technique my body just don't want to lay on my back! it's really enoying... anybody got a tip? :)

[m0rbidmiLk]

i have been entering wild by accident lately without being aware of the dream, which is very disturbing to do so, u dont get sleep cuz u think u are awake which deprives sleep, and the lack of sleep makes it even harder to distinguish ur wild dream from reality, the dreams are so real i have spent over eight hours in a wild, unaware, and awaking thinking everything in that 8 hour span actually happened

[pandafuhrer]

your introduction took 2 minutes. you lost my attention span.

[frizzzzzzal]

the problem i have with wild is i have to be perfectly comfy or i cant do it. but once i get totally relaxed its easy. and ive been doing this unconsciously all my life. the also great thing about WILD is even if you fail you still fall asleep

[frizzzzzzal]

the problem i have with wild is i have to be perfectly comfy or i cant do it. but once i get totally relaxed its easy. and ive been doing this unconsciously all my life

[kevinjb7]

I never knew about the "sounds" generated during the WILD process... I blew a chance at a WILD last week when I heard someone talking in my house who wasn't actually there and answered them haha. I guess that means I was close. Frustrating... but exciting.

[landervast]

I had two lucid dreams in one year and a half, but they were m.i.l.d. ones, w.i.l.d. is just to damn hard, but I have had sleep paralisis in the past but I always panic because I don't feel my breathing.

[neurostare]

I am so gonna so try W.I.L.D now, even if I have only had a couple of lucid drems

[boundtogetdown]

ive only had partial success with this method, ive gottn as far as seeing patterns and in some instances briefly hearing weird "alien style" music. but i usually just dose off or roll around in my bed before that happens. WILD is very mentally enduring in my opinion

[neurostare]

@boundtogetdown yeah thats about as far as I've gotten too including having the lead blanket and paralysis over me ...but STILL no lucid dream. If you find out any tips, tell me

[MrSuperSmashed]

I tried it and either its hard as hell or im fuckin sumthn up, I attempted it 3 times b4 goin to sleep, pisses me off everytime because I enter sleep paralysis and have basically my whole body in numbness, maybe not so much head or my left foot because it was sticking out of the covers, maybe got cold and wasn't as numb but i didnt want to ruin position I guess in the end i got so stressed and tense so I fucked it and just went to sleep, rele pissed off

[Jijo233]

Kick question. Do i HAVE to wake up as if it was the end of one of my sleep cycles. Or can i use an alarm clock to wake me up?

[Cdiwins1]

how do you maintain awarness while letting your conscious mind sleep?

[stellardrv]

*not be afraid, stay calm while your entering your dream

[stellardrv]

I've tried WILD before and in the process I gave myself sleep paralysis, I also started to hear different sounds that weren't in my room and I too woke up to see and that's when I gave myself sleep paralysis, so I would say to not be afraid while your ge

[TheGreekSkater]

hehe at my very first lucid dream when i realised i was dreaming my first thought was:

wait now i must no think of any monster because it will apear and after that i saw a moster went to hide and then continued my dream... :P

[Hellrun1]

@TheGreekSkater haha i had the same thoughts ^^

had anyone success with WILD without sleeping first?

[woodsy1234567890]

how do you view the movie INCEPTION in realation to dreaming

[Ichvyenichalster]

@woodsy1234567890 They never actually used the word lucid in that movie, and the fact that they're going into a drug induced pre fabricated dream together in and of its self makes it not really a dream at all, it's more like a hallucination. In the segment where cob is walking around with ariedne, that resembled a definite similarity to lucid dreaming, and a lucid dream I would have since I am very structurally constructive in the dream world.

[woodsy1234567890]

@Ichvyenichalster

i never thought of it that way

[thompsonline2]

Can you try to initiate a WILD without sleeping at first? Can you try right when you start to go to bed?

[woodsy1234567890]

@thompsonline2

yes but it is easier in the early morning

[Laurelindo]

Hello, anyone there?

Where the hell are all the Comments?

[21Blitz]

I was shocked, my first few tries i never fully made it, but was close, i;de go to get up and WTF. 1-3 hours would pass and i was awake, its like when u go numb and relaxed ur internal clock doesent worked, I looked this up before think its called the Black Hole effect, or something like that

[MrCougar1234]

Okay dude please don't trail off when you speak and speak clearly!

[cnavaro88]

@MrCougar1234

His English is near-perfect.

[Ichvyenichalster]

@MrCougar1234 English isn't exactly his first language if you haven't noticed.

[DeamonReader]

Thanks for this video, it's been what I have been missing.

[kankurou1010]

ok so i have alarm clock to wake me up early morning but how can i turn off the alarm if im not aloud to move

[Alimaria]

@kankurou1010 I had the same problem. If you have ipod alarm, you can dl mp3s that will just beep once, so you don't have to turn it off, it just generates silence after that.

[kankurou1010]

cool thanks alot for the help =)

[Amarynthine]

i tried that, and it was my first time trying it, and my first time to lucid dream, and my hands got all hot for some reason i was like wow, but I didnt want to, coz it wasnt a weekend

[kyleblakeney]

my second time trying luci dreaming and i have one of those W.I.L.D one this morning

[Alimaria]

@kyleblakeney wow, that's really good. Wild is something I struggle with, although I've had NILDs

[MrJaylucan]

really don't know what to do, tried doing it before going to to bed, and then woke myself up 6 hours later to try again

the first time i tried it, i got this pulling feeling and my adrenalin kept spiking, i wasnt afraid i guess just excited that i knew it was working but i didn't get past that, i just couldnt fall asleep

gonna try it again tonite and gonna wake up earlier this time (4hours) but would love any hints

[actyme]

i love the WILD, it's badass

[ron3358]

damn ill have to try hard... or kind of not tyr. every time i try to hard to stay still i get itchy and sweaty lol

[Swagg409]

i love using this technique i seem to never get pass the vibration state ( Sleep paralysis ) its too intense, please help.

[NotMarkk]

imagine coming out of your body, like climbing down a ladder... then you could get an Out of Body Experience. ;-P

[HalonProductions]

Just realize that it can't hurt you and it happens every night, but this time you are awake to notice it.

[bonthan]

YES the WILD technique

[TommyDarkchild]

Okay! tonight I'll make it! Thanks to Stephen LaBerge for that... His book called "Exploring the world of lucid dreaming" is awesome! :D I bet his other books are cool aswell :D

[TommyDarkchild]

This one is for me yay! WILD... It's kinda hard to have lucid dreams using WILD... It's hard to stay aware that you will fall asleep yet relaxing your body... I always find myself dreaming but not knowing its a dream and then I wake up and it's already time to go to school... Well Being a perfectionist is somewhat good but somewhat bad lol... My "pride" wont let me simply do reality checks and then waiting for them to occur in my dreams... I'm goin straightforrward with the possible hardest tech

[toomanytrys]

I had a WILD Lucid dream. Went through all the mental/body vibrations. And was Lucid for quite some time at that time I would use the spin technique quite often and be able to control my dream states.... Anyway I accidentaly manifested a fear and attempted to "wake up" but i kept waking up in my bed still "stuck" in the dream in my actual bed 4 different times I would exit my bedroom door and be brought to a diiferent place. before i could actually get back to the "real world"

[Gator115]

@toomanytrys yeah False Awakenings seem really scary, i think im just going to stick with the MILD method lol the last thing i need is sleep paralysis while witnessing me getting abducted by aliens 0_o

[tom8008135]

Hey :) I tried to do WILD once and i began to see a lot of imagery and then it became very intense and it was like seeing strobe lights infront of my eyelids + my body vibrating very fast, then everything went black and it felt like my body was asleep and my mind was awake... I thought that maybe somehow my astral body had projected near my own and was dreaming but I was stuck in my original (non-duplicate) consciousness in my real body??? What do you think? Ever had this?

[Sondr3h]

I think you experienced sleep paralysis.

[mrbunnyfufuu]

Is it important to WILD not to open your eyes?

[ragethecorp]

I found it ironic that I was trying to concentrate watching this video because it's really loud here and he's talking about not concentrating. :P

[bubblegumpops2]

What are u trying to say?

[Domzdream]

Lucid dreaming is kind of like being on magic mushrooms. When you close your eyes you literally see distance behind those lids that are closed, and you feel like you are sleeping but are peering out of the dream into the waking world. LIke sleeping and being awake at the same time.

[m3o3u3s3e3]

I watched all the videos from his first series, just to get a feel for the guy and the way he presents things, and i think it helped me to understand this series better.

[Nuked]

you seem to know some bout dreams...

Question: what do you think of dieing in dreams...falling, eaten, drowning, to see your self fade away, crasht to water and died, melted, seaing yourself die, to see a bomb fall from the sky and explode and slowly kill you and more... i can control outer dreams allmost but not when i die and the not so fun thing bout when i die is that i dont wake up and the funny thing is that its allways the same...dull black mass. fealing blind but your not..whatyouthink?

[OPhaxx]

i has sex cant lucid when sex to good more of it is very old to do

[Nuked]

you make no sense...

[OPhaxx]

neither does your FACE.

[Nuked]

and so again no sense... you mayby need your head checked or something couse you have problems :)

[Domzdream]

Holy crapQ Nuked is right.

Sorry if I'm being rude but...what did do you mean? I read it over and over and it's one of the most random comments I've ever come across. ALthough, very interesting I have to say.

[OPhaxx]

Its fun to be random.

[Domzdream]

Hey, story of my life. In fact, friends call me ranDom (random), because I'm so random ha ha.  I can relate.

See ya.

[galCapricorn]

i really want to control my dreams.. because for the past few months my dream are way to powerful..I always have dreams that i am falling... and when i wake up i have scars... weird

[Twerty222]

Do you, by chance, wake up on the floor? >_>'

[Bredli37]

LOL :P ive never done that before.

is it freaky? lol

[Luciddreamwanter]

I've heard w.i.l.d. as

Wake

Induced

Lucid

Dream

but i guess your interpretation works just as well :)))))

[dzikiewicz]

i had a wild lucid dream yesturday moring, it was my first lucid dream ever, it happened by acceident to, it was awsome

[seb456zig]

first times are always awesome!

i dont remember mine though (bin having em all my life, not all dreams tho)

[oozecandy]

You give great explanations here...it is one of your best monologues. Look up "Sleep Paralysis Sound" from Viper93000 on Youtube for an excellent demonstration of some of the sounds heard while perfoming a WILD. I have lucid dreams often but have only gone directly into dream about 5 times- one time I had a television switching channels and had to "fight" to not get overly scared when hearing all the noises. You seem to have come to grips with the noises and flickering lights- congratulations!

[toolshed777]

This is crazy I've been doing this as a kid....pretty much since I was 6 and I would tell my Mom my talent and no one really cared and they would always say "You cant control your dreams" which discouraged me and Iven been trying more and more to get the same intensity I had when I was young but its not coming back fully.

[aleterra]

go to lucidipedia,com and you will find all the techniques to bring them back

[colleenclara]

thats the exact same thing that happened with me

[colleenclara]

i think that when you're much younger your awareness of dream life and waking life isn't even completely established- your memory is like still developing so it all blurs together in a way

maybe that has something to do with it or maybe not, i just thought it was a pretty good point to bring up

[mpd19666]

I wouldn't call it a talent, lots of people can do them

[turgi65]

I think WILD skips sleep stages rather than the dreamer "witnessing" the formation of the dream. You see all the HI and what not and then?..REM? What about deep sleep if any or stage 2 for that matter. WILD seems to reach stage 1 or the very most stage 2 and then you "witness" REM, wouldn't skipping sleep stages be bad for the body?

[paulalex19]

It doesn't really "skip" stages. When your body is asleep, it enters stage 1, where dreaming is also possible, then stage 2. This is where the most active HI happens. Then stages 3 & 4 happen anyway if you didn't get your daily dose of sleep, and then back to stages 1 & 2 for more HI, and finally REM. There is a reason why it is recommended to sleep before performing a WILD.

[Yorickoo]

I only manage to enter sleep paralysis once by accident :( ....

I thought a scorpion was crawling up on me and I freaked out and ran out of my room .. Damn missed an opportunity.

The other gazillion times I've tried to WILD, always ended up failing badly lol (such as lying in the bed for 2 hours)

[FreeNiek]

Ik ben 3 weken bezig met lucide dromen en ben 4 keer egt lucide geweest,en het onthouden van me dromen gaat ook ongelovelijk veel beter,ik ga nu beginnen met WILD te leren,dit helpt me goed dankje Tim :D

[srhpenguin]

I've achieved WILD a few times after months of attempts. it is the most amazing thing. Everybody is different so you have to find out what works for you. Thanks Lucidipedia for a great video.

[aleterra]

So far I could only achieved DILDs, I hope I can get my first WILD soon, I always fall in unconscious sleep when I try WILD :(

[carste888]

but how to stay awake for wild? When I wake up in the middle of the night I either fall asleep again or stay awake.

I tried the technic of moveing fingertips in small circles, with no joy. Focussing the mind on anything will stop you from falling asleep.

great videos!

[Taaveto]

well... when you wake up, don't move.

and be consciously ready to enter your dream.

=)

[RallyMotoXfan]

sweet now we're into the good stuff!!

you're videos are the best!!!!

[toygar05]

Good to see more videos/series.

[MoonTribe]

Heel goed uitgelegd, Tim!

[LtFang299]

Great videos. Keep it up.

[Halocuber]

Great video =D
