Hi!

Thank you all for your replies, they've most certainly helped them, but I must admit - I haven't tried to AP in a few good days.
Untill yesterday. So.. I closed my eyes, relaxed, at one point my eyes tried to open and I've let them be 'partially' opened and a few seconds later influenced  them to be closed. Later on I've definietly stopped caring for a good period of time - my brain started thinking about something that happened earlier on in the day and I didn't try to stop it. It started 'drawing', 'appearing' maybe in my eyes with the entire scene playing out. And, sadly - I started 'caring' and the image disappeared and I heard a really squeaky voice calling for me to 'follow'.
My heart and "body" gave up this weird feeling I used to feel back in the day when I was relaxing (that sort of feeling when I feel everything is 'bigger' than me, can't really put it in good words) aaaaaaaand.. my eyes opened.
So.. am I on the right track?

First of all - thanks for that link; really helpful and I'll do well to remember it.

Another question; after a few(teen) minutes of trying I suddenly started to hear that sort of sound that plays in binaural beat-videos. Is this a sign of something?

Could the eye-opening thing be related in any way to breathing inconsistently? I just noticed that every time I see these green colors in my closed eyes (hypnogogia, right?) and I 'focus' on breathing and start doing it inconsistently my left eye begins to open.

Also - the fact that my eyes shake/twitch a lot when I 'look' up/down with them while they're closed.. is normal, right?

Everytime I close my eyes though, and let go of 'everything' they reopen themselves after a while.. not to mention them twitching
Am I supposed to try to keep them closed or let them open themselves?

Hello!

I've found out about APing and such around.. 2 years ago I guess, and then I had the first and the only vibrations ever.
Ever since I've been trying different methods, e.g imagining that I'm walking on sand, relaxing, then closing eyes.. further relaxing, etc., etc. but to no avail.
Now the point is.. how did I manage to reach vibrations with such a simple method which was basically closing the eyes and breathing in, and out - nothing else, but that.
So.. what am I doing wrong?

Funny you mention this, since yesterday I tried doing the same thing I did 2 days ago - it didn't work that well, since when I was entering this "trance" I suddenly was exiting it (<distraction, probably), it happened a few times in a row till I eventually gave up.
I'll give it another shot today at night, and maybe tomorrow morning since it's Saturday.

Picture someplace other than a physical world replication.
You have no body, you are not in bed, even think you are a point of conciousness and no more. Then think of a nice feeling, a sundrenched beach or whatever. Think about being at that place, the warmth ect. Try again.

How would I imagine myself that I'm a point of conciousness, if you could explain?

Before visiting this post, I sort of, tried, to project - let's call it that way.
I set myself in a laying position, relaxing a little, and I just did the simple thing; breath in, breath out. No thoughts came my way.
So, I don't know what I was doing really, but after a few+ minutes I started to feel like everything was bigger in my eyes (I have this feeling sometimes, but rarely), and I felt that my heartbeat was veryy heavy, so, I tried "rolling out" in thoughts. I think it sort of worked, because I felt a little detached. How would you call that? I don't know, really, meditation? Or maybe in fact that was some progress on AP'ing. I'm an impatient guy, the first time I found about AP, I read some random comment about just relaxing, breathing in and out. (that was maybe a year ago in August)
So, I relaxed, and this those things step by step, and the vibrations - they came pretty quick, but I freaked out since I didn't knew what to do, so I just stopped.
I didn't do any progress since then, because I expected everything to come faster - well, untill yesterday. I think you can call that progress, no?
I'm going to try doing the same thing tonight - I heard that on mornings it's particulary easier, but, well, school awaits

So, first things first;
I, in fact, am not 21 like it is said in DOB of my account, but rather 13, born in '01.
Just a little clarification; don't be surprised when I don't know much about life or my English is bad :p
I'll just ask some basic questions, because I'm confused..
So, how do you really AP? I mean, step by step, with details - how do you start, when do you initiate the exit methods, etc, etc. But, step by step, with as much detail as possible, if you can.
Also, one question for Szaxx - remember when you said in one post about a routine that doesn't require doing anything? What's the progress on it if I may ask?
Oh, and one more, because I'm not really sure about it - why do I keep seeing green when my eyes are closed? At night, at day - it sometimes "does a circle", sometimes "goes from right to left", etc.
I think you'll understand.
I would really appreciate the answers

Hello again, folks. I nearly forgot everything about the astral stuff (glad I didn't read Erin's blog, heard it's bad), and I'd like to ask some questions. Some may be dumb, others may not.

So - are there any easy methods? And by easy, I don't mean myself imagining that I'm walking on a beach (hehe), or anything similiar. Is the 'roll out' method still viable? Also, how am I to perform them? With closed eyes, or not? Because if with closed eyes - it's actually hard because they tend to open, and I probably shouldn't "force" them to be closed.

I have been sometimes feeling like I was dreaming, now the problem is I wasn't - is there something that could 'explain' it.

What's up with all this third eye, stuff, could someone elaborate?

And when I actually get there (i'll project), how will it be? I will walk like in the physical world?

Does God exist?

Does the age matter? Do I see things that I actually believe in? Can I die? (probably no)
Do demons exist? Oh, and also - is Erin's blog good for a beginner? I heard various opinions on that one.



and now.. the dumbest of all; why do i see dots in front of my eyes when it's dark

cheers, and in advance thanks for teh answers.

So, duh. I had a dream last night that I was laying on my brother's bed and then I felt like I took over control and the "screen" flashed and I felt my heart was beating hard... Then after some time I woke up.

Oh, and if I remember correctly I also in that dream was out of my body (or I'm mistaken).

So, what was it?

It's dark, and I see green so I believe its more "personal". And when the room is list up i actually see violet, or something like that. :E

Probably not, but let me get to details;

Sometimes at night (well, nearly always) when I close my eyes green color is likely everywhere, when I open my eyes it's there also. (but disappears after a moment)


The question is - does green color means something?

would respond yesterday, but when I clicked reply the website was lagging so ;_;

I probably wont be able to project at day, because I simply cant do those rundowns (cant imagine that I'm on an island).

And I really am saying truth here, at night I am able to imagine something. And one more question (probably a dumb one) - does for example visualization/motion is an exit method? I'm lost ^^.


Thanks for all the advice so far though!

That's what I have been told that I don't have to necessarily experience vibrations, anyways - thank you LightBeam, been a nice help to me here!

I do close my eyes, I'm in a relaxed position and after each breath i count to 100 or from 100.

(first time i did same except for the counting)

So hi, once again I am here having a problem.

The problem is - that I had them vibrations once - only once, and I really can't seem to have them again. The question is - why? My mind doesnt think about problems, its relaxed and I am relaxed too. So I try, and I try, but still nothing. And no - I dont move any part of body during that. (first time and the last one when i got the vibrations was at morning) I tried doing that at the morning, but no, then at the middle of the night when i woke up, but still NO.

Any solutions, propositions or ways?

Thanks for every answer here, especially those long ones, such as CFTraveler for example. Helped me a lot.


I'm going to try the rolling out method, seems easy . (and gonna practice, of course)


EDIT: Don't want to double post, what language do they speak there? xD

Thanks everybody for help! Really appreciated. And yeah, I saw stickies before but didnt read them much, so gonna read everything carefully now. Oh, and if someone could say the easiest method to leave ;[

I would prank my friend into something

So, for first - hi, recently got approved. ;]

So I have been reading about those astral projections, and have been trying them for a few days.

Second - consider me a lunatic, but always when it's night, my desk makes weird noises, along with the rest of things in the room. I guess its connected to astral, can anyone confirm? (no, its probably not a vampire).

Third - yesterday, I tried it, so i was vibrating hard, my eyes were twitching crazy, heart was beating hard and my body was being hotter per second. So - the question is, what am I to do then? How to leave, or move spiritually, or something?

After those failed tries, my head hurt me really bad, but stopped after a few hours. (just saying)
