Paralysis
15.04.2011Relearning (WILD) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID It has been a long time since I WILDed, and I felt like a nap today so why not. As I relaxed I listened to some easy-going music, and turned it off when I realised I could not remember the last three songs that played. I must have zoned it out. As I lay there, I tried to stimulate some simple visualisations, but none were coming easily. After a while, I seemed to read a newspaper. The print was very small, and the articles made absolutely no sense. I was reading very intently, and felt quite alert. Soon after, my hand touched something cold. I assumed it was the wall. But, not having moved myself, I knew it was sleep paralysis. I ran my hand along the wall and opened my eyes a crack. I could see the same thing I had before I went to sleep earlier, and was not sure whether it was part of a dream or I was really opening my eyes. So I closed them again and slowly stood up in bed, feeling the cold wall the whole time. When I jumped sideways out of bed I opened my eyes again, knowing there could be no question this time. I saw my room in halls, crossed with the room of the house I lived in five years ago. I stumbled to the top of the stairs. Everything around me had a psychadellic, vibrating quality to it. It slowly stabilised. I was very conscious of being in a dream, and even moving around in virtual reality felt strange. In hindsight, what I should have done next was rub my hands together and attempt part of the task of the year. Instead, I caved to my base instinct and went off on a shagging spree. A false awakening followed, and I kept my eyes closed. It felt like someone got into bed beside me, so I asked if they would not mind helping me up. This they did. When I stood up and looked around, there was no-one to be seen. I am going to have to get back into WILDing, I am out of practice.
