Hey Hey,

I have a small question about positions, firstly I'm very instruction oriented and like to follow instructions to the tee, then again I'm having real problems trying to AP since I also learn best when someone shows me how to do something and it's hard to get someone to show you feelings (like vibrations).

Anyway I've read a lot of guides on how to AP and most of them say get into a comfortable position, then they say lay flat on your back with your hands at your side, to me that's not comfortable, I prefer to lie face up, sometimes on my side even, with my hand over my head, fingers intertwined and preferably my legs crossed, although admittedly I was getting pins and needles in my legs from this last night.

I've seen in a few places that it's a no no to cross your extremities since it's bad for energy flow as well.

Anyway can anyone clear this up and give me advice on what different positions you use or have got to work, the flat on the back just isn't working for me.

Thanks

this is the closest i have ever been to AP in my life and the best thing is i did it completly without thinking, i have to tell someone about it  because im so excited and since the only people i know are skeptics this thread will do

right so i had to get up early to go into dublin today to run a few messages so i had to get up early right, set my alarm for 8:30, not really early but i have been getting up at 12:00 during my time off, anyway for some reason i wake up at like 6:00 and cant get back to sleep no matter what, i drift off a few time and when i look at my clock again its like 6:30, got ticked off then, drifting in and out of sleep i wake up at 8:00, drift back to sleep, blah blah blah, anyway this time when i wake up it wasnt like the other times, it was like i was opening my eyes and seeing through a cylinder or a kalediscope, i could see my light hanging from the roof, then my view sort of became clearer and i knew i was seeing out of my eyelids, once i realised that, my body felt all blobby, i could feel my real body but then above that was my astral body, all kinda floaty and blobby like, i cant describe it adequately, i think my head and my astral head were still connected but my astral body was floating away at a 45 degree angle to my body (if you get me),  then i pulled myself back in because it hit me that i had to get up soon and i didnt know how long the AP would take since i heard you can loose track of time, it wasnt like i actually decided this either, the thought just flickered briefly through my mind and bam i was back in my body, it was brief but there was no mistaking the feeling, there was no lose in conciousness, no falling back to sleep, i was in my body opened my eyes with a smile on my face and did a little dance, im quite pleased with myself really, i also went on a fast for 3 days there so maybe that had something to do with a change of energy or something or maybe it was blind luck, im thinking a combination of both or even a combo of many things, hopefully now that i know what feeling to look for it may come a little easier but in saying that im sure my next AP will come an unexpectantly as this one, looking forward to it anyway *woot*

one of the things i do to realise im dreaming is to write AID on my hand everyday, cant remember what it means - something induced dream, doesnt matter, anyway im supposed to look at my hand when im dreaming and if its there i know im awake, if its gone or changed slightly i know im dreaming, its never worked before because i never remember to look at my hand  :redface: but last night i woke up i was really confused, i thought to myself, "wait, am i dreaming?", i then scrunched up the corner of the pillow with my hand, it felt really real so i thought no im awake, then i looked at my hand and it was blank, no AID, so i knew i was dreaming, then i thought "oh well" and went back to sleep....in my lucid dream, pisses me off that i didnt do something but its the most lucid dream i ever had, i could have sworn it was real, the pillow felt so real. i think my problem is i like sleep too much, i must suffer from a mild case of narcolepsy or im just a lazy bum because it seems that i not only want to go to sleep all the time in RL but in my dreams too
