Hi everyone. I'm new here, my name is Mike, and I just stumbled upon/been obsessing over this subject of Astral Projection. I'll try to keep everything short and to the point but I just have a slight experience and a few questions.
I was studying lucid dreaming on the internet one day when I stubled upon Astral Projection. The stories and the massive amount of people/information on it amazed me, so of course I decided one night to try it. I went to youtube and found some meditation/astral projection stuff to help relax and calm my mind (since I believe I'm an overthinker and constantly think of a million things). The audio toldme to relax everthing starting with my feet up to my head and literally I felt every part relaxing as he said it. Once it got up to my head I felt extremly relaxed and continuously saw this light pattern going from a large ring to a small ring as if traveling backwards at a constant speed (I see this light pattern every time). All of a sudden my heart started beating so fast and hard and I started shaking. I was not cold at all but after I was shaking uncontrollably I said screw this and opened my eyes because I was terrified.
Upon sitting up I instantly recalled a dream from my past. I can only remember 2 dreams from my young days (like before 5 years old). One was me falling in a shark tank, and one was from when I was a baby in my crib and I remember looking at myself from above, just laying there in my crib at night as I heard my neighbor and dog bark outside my house. The realization of what that probably was definately freaked me out, but I'm going to try again this week.
I have 3 questions if anyone can help me out with them.
1. What's best to listen to while you attempt? (Binaural beats, mediation music, nothing, etc.)
2. What should your surroundings be? Should the room be all dark? How should you lay? etc.
3. My main goal is to visit my best friend that died 5 years ago, should i attempt to travel to his grave which is right down the street?
Any answers, tips, help, recommendations are greatly appreciated. Thank you all for reading
