HEAVY HEAD VIBRATIONS - Almost unbearable...

[brixtonforever]

So... I got closer than ever before to projecting. I discovered the subject of astral projection about a year ago when I started having conscious sleep paralysis and did some research... I've been able to fully relax my body for about a year now, and most of the time i can focus on getting those vibrations going really strongly... then my 'second body' begins to swim and twist and generally loosen up. But I haven't been able to make the conscious decision to 'get out' totally....

Until this morning, I always find my most fruitful little sessions happen when i wake at about 4am (I'm properly relaxed etc and often I'm in sleep paralysis so the my body has just done all the work of relaxing for me!) and this is what happened this morning:

Lying on my back, in paralysis, I very much felt 'myself' loosening from my physical body and after a bit of mental preparation I just went for it and tried to sit up. When I did this I was very certain that my astral body had made it out of my body FOR THE FIRST TIME (although i could not see). This was all very exciting, however it was accompanied by the strongest vibrations I have ever felt, but only in my head.

Now I know this is a common sensation but it was so strong and accompanied by such a loud noise that it was painful and forced me to sit back down. I then did it 2-3 more times and each time i 'sat up' this sensation (pretty much pain!) came back and i had to give up.

I'm very pleased this all happened and I will press on but I just wanted to know if anyone else had faced this problem and how I might overcome it?

Thanks for reading!

From what I hear, the best way to get settled outside your body is to get away from it. Leave the room and probably the building. Your senses should become sharper and your separation will stabilize.

I have that same experience and often I hear loud noises as well (usually hem-sync noises...I wonder if its becuase I used to use it all the time). It is very frustrating when this happens to me. Usually I end up waking up but if I don't move I can bring the vibrations back almost instantly. I have learned though when this happens to hang on to the vibrations as long as I can and they do become somewhat painful and it seems my astral body says screw this and just leaves and im out. From my best guess is that we are still attached at the head somehow and since we are sitting up our head moves first. Next time I may try rolling out, willing myself to fly or slip out of my feet.
