How I Got Out For The First Time

[Fresco]

My theory is that you feel the buzzing as you move from physical to non-physical, because you have nothing concrete/stable to focus on in-between, so you perceive the shifting energy (and energy moves in waves at particular frequencies).  If you have felt the buzzing, maybe you feel it increase then you feel/hear a pop, then feel like you're rising or floating but not going anywhere else, at that point you just need to roll over or somersault and you're out.

How long does it usually take you from the time you start till the time you exit??
One hour?? 2 hours?? Longer??

[personalreality]

It's odd, it takes almost exactly 1 1/2 hours everytime.  I lay down at say 5:00pm and I'm up by 6:30, like clockwork.

As for how long it takes to get from laying down to exit, I couldn't tell you.  I don't know how long the projections really last.  I mean if the time were the same I would say I've been out of the body max 5 minutes (in astral time).  So if it carries over, then it takes me 1 hr and 25 minutes to get out.  I'm not so sure it works like that though.

O.O that was weird. I felt like my body was lifted just a bit above me and I could not really feel (I was kind of hurting, but it stopped)... well i tried to do a to roll out, but it did not work, so i thought maybe I am not ready.. but then I decided to try and lift up my hand. When I did  I felt this strong tingling sensation and I was moving my hand very slowly... It felt like my hand was still on my bed, but at the same not. I jumped up and the feeling went away O.O I have no clue if I was doing anything or just moving my physical hand..... but it felt extremely weird!!! My body feel cool right now, especially my hands.

I get this all the time! At the same time this happens, it feels like my face is going inside of the bed, it's really amazing. Although I don't know exactly what this is, I'm hoping it's progress!

Another interesting side-effect of AP'ing is I'm seeing light and colors much brighter

I can not wait until I start up again. I want to see how far I can go. ^^ I am not afraid to do it I just get to excited and start flipping out over the small stuff. ^^"
lol I have not been seeing lights in brighter colors, but I have had some pretty weird dreams.

i like your avatar, wondering if that would be you when coming out of the body.

This is very interesting.

I have had 'sleep paralysis' many times, as a child, and onwards. Basically, I would be lying in bed and without falling asleep simply find myself unable to move my body in what looks like my room, though usually some things are a little different. When in this state lying on my bed, I hear the OOMMMMMMM, the loud ringing, and what feels like vibrations or buzzing as you say running throughout my body. In this state I have experimented. I have found that 'relaxing' and sort of just sinking into the vibrations (they actually can feel quite pleasant), the vibrations will increase and the ringing will get very very loud. This usually disconcerts me and then I will myself to wake up (a task very difficult when younger). I have tried to go out before, but usually the vibrations and ringing just gets very loud and then I cannot relax anymore though from reading what you said I realize I was actually focusing on the feelings in the body. So I will have to try differently next time. Either way, I could definitely see this working... to tell you the truth, I usually fear this state because of how scary it was when I was a kid experiencing lying in bed in a paralyzed body with nightmare forms playing around the room. I become stronger however, and I believe I could try this. Thanks for sharing.

I have no clue. I will tell you when I get out. I half to calm myself down right now. ^^" to excited and it is not working for me because of that at all basically. Someone did tell me one of my spirit animals was a wolf, but I have not met any of them, They said it was a grayish white.

I used to have this reoccurring nightmare in which I was laying flat on my back. My vision was blurry around the edges of my eyes and all I could see in front of my eyesight was white like from a ceiling. I was full conscious during the dream and realized that I could not move. I tried so hard and I could feel my body jerking but it was like it could not do what I was commanding it to, so I would try to scream for help, but my screams were on the inside since I could not even move my mouth. After a while my body would finally jerk and start moving. The position I woke up in was the same one from the dream and I would sit up and start crying. Then I would calm down try to go back to sleep, once it almost happened twice, but my alarm went off before it started. ^^ I hated that dream so much, not being able to move and desperately trying to get myself awake. It was like I was trapped.

However, I can now AP regularly at will.  By at will I mean that every time I lay down to do my practice I AP.  I can't just stand up and say "AP!" and poof I'm out of my body.  But any time I lay down I can get out, provided I practice under the right conditions.  I have tried to AP a couple times with adverse outcomes, but I really should have known better than to practice then anyway, I was really sore, tired, and my mind was really fatigued.  It's not really that hard once you get the hang of it. 

Can you project into the real time zone at will?

If so we should try projecting at the same time to see if we can see each other.

I was wondering this also, if you're with your girlfriend in the same room AP'ing at the same time, can you then talk to each other while you're both AP'ing??

[kurtykurt42]

None of my girlfriends can AP...

Has anyone else been getting chills just whenever since starting this? I keep getting them randomly.
*edit: Also is there anyway to make you mind drift away? ^^" I could not do it last night, because my mind just would not shut up. if you know what I mean.
Oh and I decided when I woke up and after I got fully ready for school to try and ap. Well I was too tired so I rolled over on my side ^^"  After a few minutes my mind began to drift off, so I was half awake and half asleep. I was not even trying to ap and the I started to the trance. vibrations and my body felt like it was floating... but as I said I was too tired, so I was sort of ignoring it and fell asleep.

I get those sometimes also. 
I heard thats your 3rd eye thats woken up and remaining somewhat active even when you're not AP'ing.

How long from the moment you start shaking is it to your exit (roughly)??

[Anemani]

I have not exited yet but the shaking will come after the vibrations and floating feeling, which is about 30-40 mins I believe.... from the moment I start to the time that I stop trying.
