Astpro

Page 292-293 of Astral Dynamics deals with this problem.

It suggests not thinking about it because that will make it more of a problem. It also suggests not drinking sweet drinks, tea, coffee and anything else that leaves a flavour in your mouth, causing saliva to flow. Brushing your teeth with a saltwater mouthwash then rinsing with fresh water is also said to help because it gets rid of unwanted tastes. Prop yourself up slightly higher than normal, this will stop saliva building up in the back of the throat. Keep your mind off it, only swallow normally and when you have to.

I think you should invest in a copy of Astral Dynamics it gives you help on almost all problems you are likely to experience during Astral Projection and trance work. If you already have a copy, referring to it, as it usually has something to offer.

If you are breathing through your mouth, breathe through your nose instead.

If you are not putting the tip of your tongue against the top of your mouth, keep it there. The usual placement is with the tip of the tongue just behind the upper teeth. It can also be curled back so that the bottom of the tongue is touching the top of the mouth some distance from the teeth.

The lips can be kept slightly open or they can be closed entirely. If one does not prevent the problem then the other will usually help.

Holding the jaw in place actively causes tension. To the extent that you are holding or placing the jaw, stop doing it. This is more an undoing step than an active process.

I am assuming that you do not meditate immediately after eating or drinking and that there are no flavors left in your mouth from having done so. It is also possible that brushing your teeth before you begin will help. If you have anything in your mouth that is not normally there, it will cause salivation.

When the saliva does accummulate in your mouth and you have to swallow it, imagine that it is energy and that the energy is going down to your subnaval storage center and entering it. This way the inconvenience can at least be of some benefit.
