Re: Astral Projection Practice Video
would it surprise you to know that everybody already astral projects while they are sleeping?

now, how does one go about developing the awareness to remember and consciously control that projection?

I had my first one while plugging my nose in a dream and still being able to breathe through it, did this in the real world for a few/days or a week and it transferred through to the dream, and woke my consciousness up while inside the dream, biggest rush of euphoria ever imaginable.

how do you know you're not dreaming right now?
 Quoting: OpenHeartMonk


The key (at least for me) is realization, meaning if you are actually in a dream and you acquire the notion (or realize) that you are dreaming, then (with experience) you will not only wake-up within the dream but you can "stay in the dream" that's the tough part. Most beginners will abruptly wake up with a startle, as it is so strange that your realization that (you are dreaming) will cause you to wake. It take a lot of time to overcome your own thoughts.

Here is an exercise,...

Try to maintain consciousness as long as possible while lying very still on the couch or in bed (it's better to practice NOT where you normally sleep i.e. bed)

Now as you start to lost the physical sensation of your arms and legs (and it will happen) try to move your arm (without actually moving your physical arm) you will fail by twitching your arm muscle (this will frustrate you, but begin the practice over and over again.

Eventually your non-physical arm will move and when it does immediately try to roll out of your body.

You will need patience with this method, but has worked for me on many occasions.

Re: Astral Projection Practice Video
I have had lucid dreams and OBE experiences when younger. But for over a decade now, nothing even close to anything 'interesting' happening. I've pretty much given up.

But I have a question for someone who may know.

During meditation I breathe through my nose, and after a while the body will take over and breathe for me, usually beginning with a sudden deep exhale out of the mouth. Sometimes I can lay there and listen to myself snoring.

Even then though, I don't feel close to being able to project or move a non-physical limb. No vibrations or swaying.

So the question. Where to from here? Is this a good starting point to trying to move a limb? Or do I need to go even deeper?

I was extremely tired today so I took a nap which I rarely do.

I remembered this thread and imagined myself flying as I dozed off.

I woke up but I don't know if I left my body.

Maybe I should try napping regularly.

Re: Astral Projection Practice Video
Hiya again OHM, another great thread. I have had my fair share of dreams of flying, many lucid where I am aware that I can and then do. Whatever the dream was about now becomes about flying.

Ive had OBE as well as an OBE within a dream, which itself is part of a much larger story. That being said, very often as I drift off to sleep I get a sensation, like a vortex feeling or that I am dying or losing myself. It only happens as I am falling asleep so I attribute it to my soul attempting to leave my body. Unfortunately I have had some experiences in my life which have instilled a great deal of fear, especially of losing control and I believe this fear is what is keeping me from allowing me to leave my body during these experiences or feelings. I end up bolting up from my sleeping position trying to regain 'normalcy'. Do you think this sounds like astral projection and if so what might you suggest for me to help let go? Thanks, appreciate the interesting thread.

 Quoting: Questioning369


thank-you, Questioning369!

to be honest, "i don't know"

most of my (admittedly limited) success has come from "letting go"

but that is difficult for me to do, and while i cannot speak for everyone, i think it is part of the human condition to be afraid of leaving the body.. in fact, i think it is the meat-sack brain/processor/ego that is afraid to lose the soul essence because then it might be dead. so it is a natural, latent ego-fear that keeps us firmly jammed inside the human android body, and i experience this very frequently, even though i know better.

so the more one TRIES, the more one FAILS because trying comes from the intellect, which is part of the wetware brain, and it secretly wants you to not succeed with this particular venture.

now i am not a perfect person, in fact i'm very lazy.

but i can tell you with certainty that when i am disciplined enough to meditate daily for at least 20 minutes, after about a month, ESP experiences, such as astral projection, naturally arise out of that.. not because i plan it or try to do it or will it happen, but perhaps because deep meditation is practice at putting yourself outside of the mind/brain, so the latent spiritual skills are able to manifest.

not sure if that helps, but there you go!

that said, i have been experimenting with technologies to assist myself, and others.. video and audio being two mediums within which i have been working most recently.

i love naps!

when i was a little kid i hated nap time, but i guess i'm getting old, lol.

very cool that you tried the flying visualization as you dozed off, that's great that you PRACTICED!

part of the equation here is recall/remembrance of what happened while you were dreaming/sleeping. ever had that scenario when you woke up from a great dream, but you can't quite remember exactly what was going on?

one method that helps me with dream recall is to keep a journal beside my bed. if i wake up in the middle of the night because i have to use the washroom, i'll try to remember what i was just dreaming about before i woke up, and then write down just a few keywords in the journal. then take a look at the journal the next morning, read your two to five keywords, and suddenly the whole dream fragment comes back into conscious recall.

this is off the wall, but i really don't like looking in the bathroom mirror at night when i'm half asleep..

Oh I have put the meditation time in, recently though I have not. I can often get down to about 1.6 breath per minute, especially if I smoke a little prior to meditation. Referencing your previous thread I responded to and now that you mentioned audio again here, I too have used binaural to alter states of consciousness. This is obviously the key, either by meditation which looks to be the longer route or the tones, which would be the shorter route. Of course you could do both too like I have.

Which is why I am still having episodes even though I have not been meditating recently or smoking for that matter. I feel like that over the years I have tuned myself more towards the theta state of consciousness where lots of the 'esp' type phenomena become accessible. I just cant seem to let go, it can happen multiple times a night or multiple nights in a row. I have gotten better at settling myself down after pulling myself out, it is not quite so startling. I just feel like it would probably be better for me if I could figure out how to get over that hump, that 'little death' so to speak.

Thanks for the input, hopefully we both find what we are seeking sooner rather than later.

for a counterpoint here, the buddhists told me to stop trying to dissociate with the human body and instead work on incarnating my soul more firmly into it, to be more present in this world.

there is merit to that viewpoint i suppose; after all, we are certainly HERE, and probably for a good reason (that we all seem to have forgotten, probably as part of the contract for jumping into a human body).

not sure how to get over your hump, although my intuition here suggests to stop trying so hard and just relax into it.

completely agree that binaurals can enhance/turbocharge the meditation experience, especially initially.

I have been working on my chakras and kundalini lately and every time I read an article about it, they all say to meditate.

Lol I try to meditate while cleaning. It's just hard to sit and do nothing.



I tried writing my dreams in the past but I can't read my writing or they didn't make sense or I remembered the dream but the writing was way off.
Just did not work for me at all.





The vibration happen as you leave your body. I don't think it happens to everyone.
Yoga Nidra aka the Sleeping Yoga, might help. You concentrate on parts of your body letting go or falling asleep while your brain stays awake.

Unfortunately I am not trying, it is just happening. I mean I am interested or would like for it to happen but I dont lay down with the intention of leaving my body. I feel it is more of a byproduct of my lifestyle. The here and now is interesting, I would love to be able to turn off the mind. I have read a little about buddhism as well as esoteric type teaching and it seems to me quieting the mind has many benefits. Meditation is great for it but I feel like I am sort of stuck in between.

When I lay down to sleep, I spend entirely too much time thinking about everything, more often then not about complete non sense, things I know most likely will never happen. Complete waste of time! Then when I finally doze off, bam! It gets a bit taxing, sleep can be hard to come by. I am pretty sure it is said once begun, better finish and that if you dont finish, it is not that great for you. This is where I feel like I am stuck in between, the search for knowledge and the wisdom from putting that knowledge into practice has me primed to make that transition, even though I am not actively laying down with the intent of leaving my body. If this makes any sense. I suppose I need to find the courage to actively make the jump.

I appreciate your perspective, thank you.
