Hi everyone. I had an experience many years ago when I caught myself dreaming and willed myself to go visit a girlfriend in another country. I found myself in a room long enough to look around before the sound of my mother calling me summoned me back. I sent her a letter (before email existed!) and she said that I'd accurately described her bedroom. It also turned out that my mother hadn't called me back.
Anyway, that was long ago and I've only recently regained an interest. I've been listening to the Monroe HemiSync discs and have had several instances of high-frequency whole-body vibration and one instance of vibration accompanied with a feeling of being wrapped in "webbing". Sadly, I've not been able to take them any further but I think that's okay for only a couple of weeks of trying.
Last night I had two instances of "Mind Awake, Body Asleep" during the night, while I was asleep. I dismissed the first one, since I really thought that I had woken up, and simply lost consciousness again. On the second one it occurred to me that I really wasn't awake, despite the fact that I could feel my body.
I found myself in an apparently featureless greyness and willed myself to a recently deceased loved one, whilst also calling for her. I suspect, however, that I was doing more calling than willing. I felt myself moving within the greyness for a while but nothing more. At some stage, I found myself feeling angry and frustrated and decided that "this is all fake, a huge con" and elected to will myself awake by way of proof that I wasn't already awake. I awoke with a gasp of air.
I'd expect to feel more disappointed in myself than I do, so I have to assume that I really did need the "proof" that it wasn't simply a dream, by willing myself awake from there. I don't know why I felt the anger.
I invite comments and suggestions.
