A wake induced lucid dream, aka WILD, is when you are pulled into a dream while being fully conscious and aware you are there. This allows the you to explore limitless possibilities and live out fantasies you have only imagined!
[edit] StepsFirst a WILD requires the use of an alarm clock to wake you up after approximately 5 hours of sleep. This is done so you can become conscious one hour before the next REM (Rapid Eye Movement) period begins.
After you've woken up, you now have an hour to prepare for the REM phase. Do whatever you like for the next 50 minutes or so and spend the last 10 minutes telling yourself what you want to do before you head back to sleep.
--NOTE-- (WILDS are preformed by waking yourself up at the time before REM occurs, then going to sleep again as it occurs with you fully conscious)
Now once you've used up the hour, head back to bed and close your eyes and act like you're going to sleep again. You're trying to trick your body into sleeping while your mind is still awake, so don't move or think about anything excessively. You'll know when your body is falling asleep because you will begin to feel body paralysis. This is completely normal and shouldn't be feared. Sometimes, while you're just falling asleep normally, you will feel a sudden jolt and become fully alert.
Next you should begin to see strange patterns and colors or distorted images flashing in your eyes. Again this is normal, but we do not see this when we are normally sleeping because we are not in an REM period. Just keep waiting until these images begin to settle and become clear.
Once you see stable clear images you can now attempt to control what's happening. It may feel strange at first but whatever you can think of will be projected into your dream. You can do whatever you want to now that you're in control. Fly, walk on water, bend reality, travel anywhere in the world, and it will feel just as it would in real life, hence the word "lucid" in lucid dream.
[edit] TipsReminding yourself of your intention before going to sleep will usually get you lucid dreams to occur more often.
While in a dream you cannot panic or you will be awake again in a sweat. Staying calm is key.
Lucid dreams usually last no longer than 30 minutes, but in the dream it can seem to last for days.
Soothing music or releasing tension in muscles before heading to sleep can make your body fall asleep faster, inducing lucid dreams quicker.
[edit] WarningsDon't drink coffee or soda or anything that will keep you awake before attempting a lucid dream.
