Hi - I'm SimplyHuman. I've been interested in astral projection for a while now and have been actively trying for a few months.
I haven't managed to get past the 'vibration' stage yet through meditation. However, I've noticed I've started to get sleep paralysis in the morning, which seems to get me further along.
The day before yesterday during sleep paralysis I managed to sit up in my astral body and started floating up, but didn't feel the 'pop' I was expecting and eventually decided to lay back down as I was unable to turn around or do anything else. I could see a distorted metallic reflection of my face overlaid over my vision, like looking into a mirror.
Today, I tried again during sleep paralysis, and was able to control my astral body but again felt a strong force stopping me from going anywhere other than a few inches above my body. I tried hard to get up, but couldn't. This time before projecting I felt parts of my body being pulled and moving involuntarily - like my legs moving out of the bed - but when returning to my physical body I realised this didn't happen. During projecting, my vision was again distorted and I was looking both in front of me and behind me at myself sleeping.
Can anyone give me advice on how to 'pop' fully out of my body?
