A cookie? What do you mean? I don't know if that would work. Any other ideas (besides facing him head on with no violence)? I would prefer if there was no violence involved with any other idea.

I have already posted a story called 'An Entity Blocks Me From Astral Projecting' which you can read about here: http://www.astralpulse.com/forums/welcome_to_astral_chat/an_entity_blocks_me_from_astral_projecting-t47812.0.html

I am eager to share any other experiences I might have. Any advice on my topic will be much appreciated. I am also very interested in
other people's stories so I hope we'll all get along. As of now, I am still very new, so I am thrilled to start exploring the forums this site
has to offer.

I think I never read that Bedekin thread, thanks, will check it out.

Yeah, I got my first success with Buhlman's book, so maybe I got it from there then too.

And I remember the 'etheric' technique also from Buhlman's book well with going around in your room and touching things described there. I could give this another shot again although then I might have an etheric instead of astral projection. This was indeed the case back then in 2009 when I projected etherically into my room and flew to the ceiling, looked down on my physical body and then just went back again.

It was a 'heavy' experience I love to remember.

I agree that every technique/method wears off after a while or does hardly work at all. This is why I am always somehow a 'beginner' again trying other and new methods that hold up for me at least for a while. So far have not found the 'perfect' one but maybe it does not even exist at all (for me).

When in doubt go back to the drawing board. Return to what initially got you "there". I find a good way to have a Etheric projection is to place a chair in the middle of your room. Before you sit in it, memorize everything around you. Be aware of how far the walls are away from you, where the Mantles are (if any are there), doors, stairs, etc, Now sit down, close your eyes and recreate everything around you in your mind. Next, take a few deep breathes. Now on the inhale feel you feel your Etheric body expanding towards your walls. On your exhale you feel your Etheric body shrinking back into your chair. Do this for about 20 minutes and you will all of a sudden be able to "see" your room like you could with your eyes open. A blindfold of some type will aid you in knowing that what you are seeing is a NP vision. Now, you can will yourself to your door, window, touch your walls, move up or down your stairs, etc.
 I used that technique when I was new to this practice and had some great experiences with it. Another good technique is to simulate the tactile feeling of a moon walk, as in walking in 0 gravity. That's a fun one.  

However, I don't see Wake-Back-To-Bed as a technique. I also was not aware of former Pulse member Bedekin posting it as 'Pre-nap' but rather referred it to Albert Taylor's book "Soul Traveler" because he coined that very name iirc. I suppose Bedekin also got it from him somehow.

I heard Albert talk about that in one of his video interviews as well. I enjoy Albert's interviews. He has so much passion for this practice!   Albert said he got that technique from William Buhlman.
 Here is a link to Bedeekin's write up. I like it because in it he dispels many of the Astral projection "falsehoods":

I see WBTB as a strategy especially suitable for beginners, that is why I always recommend it to them and as said: to myself when I reboot my 'AP career' after a long dry period because it really is the one that seems promising to get your 'first' OBE despite the fact that it all wears off again later on. And honestly, so far it seems the only thing working for me after all.  

WBTB is thus not a technique for me but more of a done preset / priming / preparation strategy regarding the timing of when you do it. (Lumaza, that's a bit similar to your strategy of 'soak sessions' when you let in the water for the bathtub). Techniques is what follows then for induction and 'exit' when you lay down again (which in your case would e.g. be energy work and/or your Doorway phasing method combined).

I see WBTB more of a Lucid Dreaming 101. That's basically what it entails. Very rarely do you experience exit signs or signposts. The challenge seems to be in "grounding" yourself in the scenario you are experiencing. That and keeping your anxiety level at a minimum.

But okay, hey, I'm a nitpicking nerd, I guess you know that already.
   

LOL  

Now to the techniques. Bedeekin's "pre nap" technique that Volgerle spoke about above works very good. But only for a few times. After a few times, your system gets used to it and for some reason it doesn't work anymore. I find that many times techniques you do will only work for so long before you are forced to find another way or another focus target. Other people here on this Forum have found that to be true as well.

So, which personality/mental/psychological conditions don´t allow astral projections?

Perhaps you should read the AUP here. It seems to me that your repeated questions here and the "overtone" of them might be a sign of "anxiety issues". It's nothing personal, but we have seen this over and over again here and it usually is the case. Forgive me if I am wrong. But the AUP is important for everyone that posts here to read anyways. So no harm, no foul!

in my first post I meant that if the practice os astral projection may cause serious dissociation effects like, for example, if you are at work, or with people, or walking and suddenly you have an involuntary astral projection leaving you  in a dangerous situation, or having any horrific vision among the people you are, etc...

I have never heard of such occurrence. There are spontaneous OBEs only during sleep or relaxed stare/meditation. If awake, the only thing I have heard is dual consciousness, remote viewing, etc, but never body becoming disabled suddenly, unless there is illness present that is casing it.

I have read that, not only there are people having spiritual meetings providing information, but also astral sex.  In your experience and knowledge. these entities are real (that is, independent, and outside the astral traveller), or are caused byhis own imagintion?

Thanks for your interesting information.
