Screaming or howling

There is been a few threads about drinking some liquid before you go to bed so that you naturally wake up about eight hours after. But here is my simply put guide on how to do it, I have tested it five times and it makes me wake up 8 hours on the dot each time. If you would like to wake up earlier just drink it an hour or two hours before bed instead of right before bed. WBTB w/ BathroomBTB Technique: 1.) When you are about to go to sleep empty your bladder (Or wait for yourself to have to go to the bathroom) This is to prevent you from waking up too early. 2.) Drink about 1 1/2 glasses of water, do not drink sugary stuff it will keep you up all night. 3.) Watch both videos on this free lucid dreaming website, it has subliminal messages to make you lucid dream and increase vividness in dreams. Free Lucid Dreaming Subliminal Video 4.) Go to sleep, you will probably wake up naturally about 6-8 hours after you go to bed. It usually interrupts a dream for me. 5.) Go to the bathroom, clear your throat, drink a little water to hydrate yourself, and start saying some mantras out loud. 'I will lucid dream when I go back to sleep' 'I will have a lucid' whatever you want really. 6.) Go back into your room, if it is too hot open a window/ turn on a fan. Fix your blankets and pillows to make sure you are comfortable and then lay down again. This is very important, if you are not comfortable you probably will not lucid. (Also make sure you are laying on your back with your hands to your side) 7.) Now that you are laying down and comfy say about 2 different mantras in your head this time, 'The next time my eyes open I will be lucid' 'The next time I am conscious I will be in a dream' 'When my eyes open I will do a RC' Say two of any mantra that you like at least 5 times each. 8.) Finally let your mind slip into the void, let all thoughts pass through your head with no notice. Also do NOT make any comments in your head, what I mean by that is do not talk to yourself especially during SP. 9.) You will feel yourself slip into the different sleep stages fairly quickly, if it does not happen within 15 mins you probably will not have a lucid that day but try again some other time. Also SP only hits me for about 5 seconds then I go into a dream. Sleep Paralysis: Stay calm, ignore all sensations, do not talk to yourself in your head, get more and more relaxed just let your muscles 'drop' Sometimes it helps for me to think that I am sinking into the bed. Make sure to never open your eyes unless you are sure you are in a dream, usually a dream scene will form in front of you so you will not even have to do anything. I have had SP kick in within 30 seconds of me going back to bed and I went straight into a lucid. When in a Lucid: Reality check to make sure (Nose plug works best for me), stabalize with hand rubbing or feeling textures around you, stabilize your vision by saying 'Increase Clarity' 'Focus' I use 'Resolve' posted in the lucid dream spell section Scream it as loud as you can, from there you can choose where to go I feel like waking up naturally is 5x better than waking up with an alarm, I do not know why but the only times I have had lucid dreams were from waking up naturally. I wrote a little more than I wanted so it is not too simple anymore but all of these methods are just daily routine, and a lot of people do them already so it should not be a problem. I would say stay awake for 10 minutes <PERSON>. Thank you for reading, any questions? Just ask here
