I'm going to be 18 in 9 days, so I wanted to post here while I still had the chance.
I've been interested in AP since I was 12 (with a three or four-year hiatus in the middle) and have done it 3 times. =P

So... i have this problem that when my body relaxes, i come really close to body asleep mind awake, but then when my body actually falls asleep my breathing turns real weird and sometimes my heart pounds really hard. i tried to get used to this and get my breathing normal, but i feel like suffocating. how can i get my breathing regular? i tried to think of something els, but then my breathing gets even more intense. oh and i found out that my heavy breathing is the reason why i am snapping out of it.

thanks for your help,

Is your heavy breathing being caused by your rapid heart beat, like an involuntary panic reaction? If it is, I have that problem too.  I've learned to kind of force myself to ignore it but since it's involuntary you can't really ignore it completely.  You either have to force your breathing to remain normal, or do nothing in which case your breathing gets really heavy and breaks your state of relaxation.  Kind of a lose lose situation I haven't figured out how to get around yet.  You might want to try phasing though.  That's a technique a lot of people on here recommend that's completely different from most traditional obe techniques.  I'm trying to use it to get around the rapid heart beat and automatic heavy breathing problem because the technique doesn't involve bodily sensations at all.

Common experience.  Fear and energy surge.  Just keep practicing, it will pass.

Hello, my names Shane Filley I'm 16 and I'm very new to this and at least for now I just want to learn about everything and soon try to experience it. I'm really just hoping that someone that knows a lot or at least that has a little knowledge in this can help me understand better and give me some advise.

Hey just made an acc to post on this, seeing that there is so many people my age interested in AP is inspiring (16), im among the most with not being able to AP when i wish, ive had one obe which was an amazing experince. i dont remeber how i got into AP i think just curiousity of everything i eventually found it on the web, caught my interest, i tried also getting distracted by life. then i had my obe at complete random shortly after that i picked up Astral dynamics by robert bruce and im currently in the energy work part, i think i got it but im not sure. I'm going to keep going at it until i get it this time though for sure

oh and hello from canada!
