If that's the case then I recommend the lucidology 101 timer technique (chapter 7 of my first book "Entering The Phase - A 17-Year-Old's Journey"). If you find it difficult to stay awake after getting up at 5am that technique will be perfect. Sadly it didnt work well for me (caused temporary insomnia) but I got 2 phase experiences in just 3 days from that technique. Hope all goes well... Good luckOnce asleep I like to stay that way. And after awakening I'm usually too tired to try anything.

Just remember that the practical guidebook's other techniques for deepening and maintaining and skills work very well. It's just separation that varies between people. So I still highly recommend you read the practical guidebook for everything else even if the separation techniques don't work for you.
