So after ten years+ of trying astral projection with only two 100% sure sucess I’ve decided to go back to my source, that is, robert monroe’s books.
I had read one of them when I was 11-12 and it had changed my life.
Now I understand those ten years I was skipping the “provoking vibrations”
part, it came to me naturally on those two occasion which may be why I was successful?
I’ve tried his method to provoke the vibrations which didnt work out so much.
Does any one have a personal best way to do this?
Also did anyone notice a difference in lying down head to the magnetic north?
Thanks
I suppose the vibrations you are talking about are the effects of sleep paralysis?
If so, you can use the WILD method. While using this method, you will consciously fall asleep. During the process, you may experience SP and the effects it creates, including vibrations. The method works best after 4-6 hours of sleep. It may also be done during afternoon naps, although it may be harder for those who can’t fall asleep easily.
Personally, I use this method to achieve LD’s, however, you should be able to initiate AP/OBE as I’ve seen other people do that with successful results. I’m sceptical person, so in my opinion OBE’s are just (lucid) dreams with the scenario of being outside your body. Still, if you want to achieve it, I think WILD is the best method for it. More detailed explanation can be found in the Tutorials section of the forum.
Thanks for your response!
I use something quite close to WILD to get the sleep paralysis and deep relaxation which
is the first step for an obe. The vibrations do come naturally (sometimes?) with this procedure but after a very long time (atleast in my experience) and usually diminish after a little while (connected to the fact I notice it therefore waking up abit?)
There are techniques to provoke these more actively I believe which is what I am seeking.
Also, I have had numerous lucid dreams before. I can’t prove that an obe is real in the sense that my soul/spirit/mind leaves my body but I have proven to myself that an obe is not just a different lucid dream, the consciousness and feelings involved are different than those of a lucid dream, atleast to me.
I’m not an expert with AP. But I’ve been reading that AP/OOBE begin with the feeling of a tingly/vibration sensation all around the body, and a buzzing sharp sound in the ear. I hear that you can achieve this by deep relaxation. You can meditate to get to the state and astral project out. There’s also SP. When your body becomes paralyzed, you can imagine your soul beginning to float outwards, it might be a little hard to make it leave the body, just let yourself go.
I think you might like this site. I read a lot of the AP stuff there. erinpavlina.com/blog/categor … rojection/ <- It’s blogs by a psychic lucid dreamer/astral projector. She’s very experienced with AP. Goodluck with AP!
