This may sound odd but, from my hypnosis classes I found something useful to learn the skill of staying in alpha. I had a similar problem of falling asleep as I would descend too quickly.
Try taking a shot of caffeine beforehand (preferably non-synthetic and not from coffee). It'll prevent you from falling asleep-but if you can relax sufficiently you'll be able to hover in that alpha state. Once you are used to focusing in on alpha, you won't need the caffeine anymore.
