Recently I had a client ask me about some problems he was having inducing WILD (Waking Induced Lucid Dreams) sessions. His main problem was transitioning from the awake into twilight state while remaining cognizant of himself and not falling to sleep. Getting to theta was no problem since he was an experienced meditator and could enter his trance easily with or without brainwave entrainment.
His problem was fairly common with today's lifestyle; he couldn't turn it off and quiet the mind enough to make the transition smoothly into dreams without being totally unconscious.
I suggested he try a bodybuilder's supplement called GABA (Gamma-aminobutyric acid). Bodybuilders will take it right before bed to increase and prolong the 'pump' from their workouts. It also helps quiet the mind and aids sleep. I buy it in bulk by the kilogram and use about 5 grams each night. A side effect is REALLY kicking your dreams into high gear. GABA has one other side effect that I know of - a few minutes after you take it it, you'll get really tingly all over - like when your foot goes to sleep and the circulation is just come back to it. Goes away after a few minutes. As always check with your doctor before taking any supplements.
He tried it with a WILD session before bed the next evening and said he had no trouble slipping ing into the dream state but was so startled by it that he woke himself up. Next evening he said he had one of the best LDs ever!

That's all for now.
