definitely want to hear your answers cause i don't want to do anything wrong and end up with a locked joint in my arm or whatever. i also don't think the drooling is necessary, except i can't help it since it kind of collects in my mouth and then i feel it.
Any amount of drool can be normal WILDs require you to fall asleep. If you're uncomfortable, this will make it more challenging to fall asleep. My suggestion is to find what's most comfortable for you and use that method. The point is to retain awareness as you lose it to enter the spirit. How you do that is your unique entry. Until you discover your chosen method you might consider trying a variety of methods
