Recently I've been overwhelmed with excitement at the thought of trying to AP again, I've only ever had one successful conscious attempt that left me feeling perturbed after i realized I'd actually projected the morning after. This was two years ago, and my efforts ceased shortly after because of employment and basically having too much on my plate.   

I want to get into this again, I've briefly tried this past couple of nights but to no avail as i don't believe i was trying hard enough to keep my mind focused, I've experienced a physical numbness and shortly after i doze off.

My last experience (two years ago) was very peculiar, I remember trying my usual relaxation hypnogogic techniques and then basically fading out, I don't remember anything after that until i became conscious of the street light outside reflecting off a monopoly board game. It was then i half realized i'd been succesful, I looked below me and saw the silhouette of me inside my bed. I didn't move anywhere, and snapped back shortly after.

Could you possibly inform me of some good mental techniques to keep my mind focused on this? as i'd really like to experience this again.

Any other feedback would be appreciated too, or a take on your first or most memorable projections!
