Hemi-Sync Advice

[jamie6747]

While listen to Robert Monroe's Hemi-Sync gateway experience i have noticed if i picture myself pushing upwards im instantly greeted with a feeling of large amounts of energy rushing from the whole of my body to the top of my head, this feeling is so strong it feels as if my non physical self is just going to pop out of the top of my head..so my question is has anyone else experienced this?

Here are some other experiences i get.

Waves of energy pulsating throughout my body.
Tingling in my stomach
Head moving position on its own accord, while in deep meditation.



Looking forward to responses.

All perfectly normal experiences. 
You're becoming aware of more of consciousness.

Hemi-sync works well. I use it all the time for meditating, OBE's, etc. Physical sensations vary depending on which CD I am using.

I also use Tom Kenyon's recordings, but not for OBE's. I probably get more energetic sensations with his materials than I do with hemi-sync. For example, he has a recording from the Hathors called the Aethos. It has a powerful energetic EVERY TIME.

I have a very plain 45 minute Hemi-Sync Meditation ($9 at Amazon) that I probably use more than most recordings (nearly daily). I also have Patty Ray Avalon's Inner States which I use maybe once a week (6 exercises), and the new OBE technique CD set (6 techniques on 6 CD's) from William Buhlman which I am exploring currently.

I don't know whether using hemi-sync has made me more conscious (as Xanth implies). That is not exactly my experience. I have experienced more consciousness with meditation, but not singularly with hemi-sync. I can suggest that hemi-sync prepares my mind better than other stuff out there - especially for meditations, OBE's or contact with guidance.

Hemi-sync is definitely better than a lot of the YouTube recordings that I noticed many people here at the AP use.

I really have no advice. I am simply sharing my experience.

My best and most simple advice is to keep doing whatever it is that seems to be getting you results (i.e. new experiences); continue with that until it stops, then look around for the next lesson, wherever it may come from (this won't always be obvious). So in that sense, if the Monroe Hemi-sync is helping you experience these "energy sensations", then keep with it.

That is the quickest, easiest answer I can suggest.

Now to complicate things a bit.

In my opinion and my experience, the energetic sensations can serve at least 3 purposes: 1- They are a definite validation that some new type of experience may be available to us; 2- There are new qualities of physical or supra-physical energies that can be experienced possibly as other-dimensional bodies/vehicles/vessels of Consciousness; 3- That our present Consciousness is somehow involved and that relationship requires exploring (and maybe 4- At least initially, we have little to no idea as to where we are going or how to get there, lol).

In reading back over your previous posts here on the Pulse, I see that you have had a number of experiences ranging from semi-lucid dreams, hypnogogia and a little Sleep Paralysis. I hope you are recording all this in a journal of some sort; I started with a Dream Journal but because of all the seemingly non-dream weird stuff I just came to call it my Journal of Non-Physical experiences (NP). A journal will prove to be a great benefit a few years later as you begin to discern certain patterns within your experiences; it becomes both a catalogue and a roadmap of where you have been...and maybe an indication of where you are going.

To me, it is like a giant jigsaw puzzle with 8 or more corners to it and we are slowly piecing the various corners together, working our way back towards the center; or it's like the three blind men describing different parts of an elephant. With that idea in mind, remember that your experiences likely will not come in a completely understandable, linear form; certain key aspects may not be immediately apparent. And they will be at times, common with other people's experiences and other times very uniquely yours. So it is good to write them all down in some form of a journal. They will fit together sometime later.

If the Hemi-sync is working and you want to add something like that, then the Kenyon or Avalon audio seems like quality material.

So, with all that said, I think you should also be paying attention to how energy sensations are showing up in your dreams (this has already happened and is your inner self experimenting within the safe confines of a dream), the different perspectives of your dreams (again, you have already instinctively experimented with this) and the consolidation of your memories of these key aspects.

You can also add in some straight-forward meditation as was recommended (no Hemi-sync, no sound, just you); just 15 minutes to work on calming/quieting the mind and learning control and patience (you will need this later).

If you haven't already, read some of the Blue Stickies on this forum and the 3rd forum about Exit Sensations, Sleep Paralysis, First time Out, Xanth's book, Szaxx's Blueprint, etc...as much of this you can cram into your head because most of us have experienced it before and it is good knowledge to have (even in the back of your Consciousness) when you happen to run into that particular circumstance.

So my final advice is to take what you currently have and put it to work. Do some energy work for an evening or three and then set your Intent for every night...to have an experience sometime during the night, to either remember or to become fully lucid in a dream; or to set a middle of the night alarm, or an early morning alarm, and do a Wake, Back to Bed technique. Set a specific Intent to become aware in your bedroom or your apartment or house...nothing too complex, keep it simple. Experiment with the timing and try to get those energy sensations you are now feeling, and if you can, follow them with full confidence in your ability and your safety. Those energy sensations may continue or they may transform into hypnogogic visuals or audios or a Phasing kind of OBE; whatever it is, just go with it. Now is the time to start pushing your outer limits.

And no matter what experience you get, accept it and take it as far as you can. Then write it down. I can almost guarantee that it won't be what you expected, so don't be disappointed and take it anyway, because there are always lessons to be discovered.

I hope that helps. Have fun!

That's a lot to take in but i think i understand what your saying. So i will continue with the hemi-sync for now, see if anything new happens.
