This is pretty interesting Vi. I’ve never heard of it before. I did use almost all the sentences you said though. Mostly I combine one from the E and one from the P. I actually don’t know what works better, or what I even am. (I did answer the questions though)
Duck - I’m a P! It’s split up 50-50 in normal circumstances, but perhaps Es are more lucid dreamers. Or, more likely, the Ps didn’t bother replying because they get to keep doin what they’re doin.
I’m a P…the funny thing is i was hoping that i would be an E. I feel i am much more of an emotional person and stuff.
The funny thing is, i used to use all the P questions and got everything well. I tried using E for a while and i’ve been failing for quite a while at getting an LD.
Great stuff Vi! Thank you for sharing this with us.
(I don’t know if this is supposed to happen, but i absoloutley cannot MILD)
I’m a ‘E’ person, but all I’ve been using is the way to trick yourself as an ‘P’ person. I’d really like to give this a try! I’ll keep you guys up-dated!
Ok, so nothing happened… for the night at least. About a hour ago I was normally trying to fall asleep, only difference is the TV was on. So that kept a spark of awareness within me. As I drifted off… I remember my thoughts being more life-like images, they faded away. So I continued in bed when I feel this rocking motion (side to side) so I went along with this. As I concentrated on the motion… at a point I went all the way to the right and found myself ‘feeling’ facing the opposite way (impossible since I was not facing that way? xD). I tried going to the right all the way but something kept my head from moving… When I was in this state, I could not only hear my TV but other things as well. Not sure what they were… sounded like it was coming from the outside Since I couldn’t do anything else… I tried moving my hand (physical I guess) but had no response, actually more of a delayed response because it took a while for it to move
you were WILD-ing. In other words, you were falling asleep while you were still conscious. When you WILD, you get three types of HI :
Visual HH - you see pictures and images floating by
Acoustic HH - you hear weird noises
Semantic HH - you get weird feelings.
All that happens normally when you sleep, except you lose consciousness. When you say you had a delayed response, it was because as you sleep, at one point your brain shuts down all connections to your body. This is called SP. You were either ‘reaching’ that part, or you were experiencing SP, and then you had awoken.
In other words, you were very close to an dream where you would have been lucid from the start. Why don’t you try WILD-ing purposely, seeing as you got good results from the beginning. I’m glad to see you were relaxed and ‘you went along with it’. Go to the main website and read the information on WILD. You can also search for WILD topics on the forum.
seems like the last one posted a long time ago…
i hope it’s not forbidden to post in here and well, i had 5 As and 5 Bs, meaning for me, this seems to be the best result
I just discovered this topic. I’m slightly E (6 vs 4). Direct autosuggestion worked rather good for me, indirect too (I’ve sometimes used the “find your hand” method). I’ve some questions:
how did you build the E autosuggestion sentences? I don’t understand exactly the principle. Please could you explain it precisely?
I would like to translate your post on the french forum cause it’s linked towards it in Sandra’s MILD FAQ. Please may I? You’ll be credited of the article, of course.
I am barely a P. I guess that explains a lot. I usually use P autosuggestion, and they work only about half as well as I wish I’ll have to try an E autosuggestion from time to time now.
MILD works for me fairly well, but not for actually inducing dreams.That is to say it works, but not that often. Vi, perhaps you could link us to the original test to help some of the people (including me) who are on the fence find if they are more one way or anther. After all, a 10 question test leaves some considerable gaps.
