Hi Barbora

Thank you for sharing in such detail, haha I love that your vibrations are so pleasant! I think I may set my own affirmations that mine turn this way too It is so interesting that we all have such different experiences, my vibrations feel like the bed is shaking/earthquakes!

I am still in my early stages of my journey but I love to read that others have so many repeat exits, as one of mine recently got interrupted. I hope I will be able to exit like you soon, it sounds like you're a pro haha

Thanks for sharing <3

Thank you! I didn't want to comment at first because I wasn't sure if it would be welcome to encroach on your topic here. I'm still new to the forum I'm very glad we can share with others here, how amazing

I fully agree with your intent setting process. I use the same approach - to soak my subconscious mind with it enough during the daytime so it would be remembered during te experiences And I also agree with following the guidance or connecting with the guides.

Please comment away! I love that we can build a community, and any advice you have is welcomed <3

BarboraD,
If the 'forward zooming' movement feels like it is pulling you deeper into the Void, then relax and go with it.

This is very helpful! If I end up there again, I will allow myself to just be. I think I was just confused like where am I haha. But these comments are all making me feel much better and more confident. I will definitely go in more confident in myself and trusting in my guides.

Thank you so much <3

Thank you all for this conversation. I'm following with interest 
Sometimes I experience the same lack of ability (to imagine for example the place of where I want to project) when I feel myself to be in the void and I also experience the movement (forward zooming) there.

Ooooo well I'm glad I'm not alone! Hopefully with more practice, we will get somewhere. I think I will make intent to just go where my soul/spirit intends me to go. Or to meet my guides and I am trying to set these intentions during the day time so I have a better chance of remembering later on!

Thanks for following along, I'm glad we are finding similarities between our journeys

One more little update:

So the technique ish that I have been using is waking up in the morning when I can still sleep in a bit, and then I try to feel the spinning/swaying motion. After that I try to affirm that I will stay aware/or have a lucid dream. So this morning I went back to sleep after swaying a bit and starting affirming that I would lucid dream and then project. I had a dream that there was a button that would make us go down. Then woke up in the physical. I stayed still and went back to that dream. I kept thinking to go back to that dream of going down, pressing the button. And repeated that over and over, and then I started to project through my feet again!

But then at this time my partner and my dog got up LOL. I tried to get there again but I couldn't.

But this is more progress!

Yay.

Thank you!

Thank you, EV!

I did read up on the stickies about the void, a few times. I am not sure it was the void to be honest as I still felt my body to an extent and I was moving in a direction? There was constant movement. First downward and then upward. I FELT like my sleeping mask was still on my eyes. I also felt like I didn't have a clear destination in mind/intention that I truly believed in. It felt though, like all my intentions have just left my brain! I couldn't think of anything important. Like I want to meet my guides, my higher self, my grandma, go to the moon, go to the beach. Anything! Lol I couldn't think of it.

From what I gather with the void there is no movement and you just are...

I definitely feel like this is progress!

Thank you!

Thank you! I will try this tonight and keep you posted.

Cheers <3

Update!

Good Morning, from Cali!

So this morning I put my sleep mask on and I had intended to go back to sleep but set the intention of lucid dreaming and it WORKED. Almost immediately, I realized I was dreaming and I did a reality check, breathed in with a pinched nose. (I think I heard my physical body snore a little) And then I just stopped the dream and sat down. As I did this, everything went dark, and I felt myself projecting, but I didn't have to do anything. Physically I was lying prone, on my tummy. My legs were sort of pulled and I was pulled from my legs downwards & I started to go down. And so I was going down into just darkness, and then I was thinking I would like to go up so I did. But I was kinda in this darkness, nothingness. The void I'm assuming? I kept thinking clarity now or I'd like to go to a higher vibrational place/state. But I wouldn't. Then I thought of going to my room and I was back to my body.

What do you guys think??

Sending love,
B.

My very first symptom was an earthquake shake sensation.

Well this answers my question about last night! I had an earthquake sensation!

Thank you

Okay! Update from last nights attempt.

I was practicing before bed. For me this time works because of my lifestyle, and because nap time and 4-5am isn't really conducive to my work life at the moment. Also I feel that at the end of the day I may be tired enough to get into a relaxed enough state.

I was reading all of your posts from years ago. I think it's amazing you al continue to help so many of us so thank you.

So as I was reading, there was a KEY factor that I think I have missed. I am hoping someone can lend a little more insight. Others have countlessly mentioned "look at the darkness behind your eyes and just notice any changes in your peripheral" or something like that? But my eyes are darting from left right up and down I can't keep them still. I missed the part where you all said keep focused on a part behind your eyes like a dot or a flame of a candle. I think Lumaza has mentioned a candle method. Otherwise you activate your "third eye". I'm not sure what that means. And would like some more insight if anyone has some time.

So last night I attempted to focus my eyes and not move them to get past that point the way you have described in other posts. I almost immediately felt shaking, like an earthquake. I did this a few more times.

Things to note:I was wearing a silk eye mask and listening to binaural beats.

Things that were really hard:
1. Keeping eyes shut. I wasn't sure if they were closed or open sometimes and had to sometimes squeeze to keep them closed because staring at one spot would almost pry them open.
2. My body tenses up as I try to focus on a spot
3. I lose my spot I am trying to focus on/its just really hard to stay in one spot

It was my first time practicing this method so if anyone has any suggestions or has struggled with this, or feels this will get better in time? Let me know!

Also can I have my eyes open?

Lightbeam, Lumaza and Ev

Wow. I'm not sure what I have done to receive such amazing feedback from you both. Genuinely, I want you to understand how grateful I am that you shared so much of your wisdom with me. I'm sorry about my late response.

I can't wait to re read all of this again and apply it to my practice. I do feel that I'm getting better, and faster into 10. Almost immediately I go into the heaviness, almost numbness, and today I did hear a loud sound in my right ear which ended up startling me and raising my heart rate a lot. But I can definitely get into a medium-heavy 10 where I'm not really sure where my hands are & seeing dream images. My body definitely makes it hard tho like you said! With muscle twitches, numbness, and other fun things LOL

I also had another partial OBE experience! I had a dream, and in the dream I was rolling/summersaulting. So from that motion I ended up in my bed again but I felt my astral body in my physical body. I'm not sure what stage this is? I attempted to project, and as I tried to sit up out of my physical body, I hear my bed creak. I fear I will wake my partner up so I go back into my body. This was in the morning and it was already light out.

EV, as for the voice in the previous experience, it was so silly and coming from my dog's bed so it did not feel like it was anything for me to fear! Maybe it WAS my subconscious telling me to stop being silly and get out! But believe me, sometimes  I am chicken of the dark, haha! And I almost always go in with a protection affirmation, and I have a few protection crystals for good measure. I figured it wouldn't hurt

I will check out all the resources, I even got my iPad a new pen so I can scroll and read the forum comfortably! I really was not expecting this.

Thank you all so much. <3

Hello Lightbeam,

Thank you so much for your input. I feel myself trying to use visualization but this is a difficult method for me. I am getting better, non the less. I find myself narrating my visualizations instead of being there myself. The only time I felt a deep level 10 was with a guided hypnosis of mind awake body asleep. But now I haven't really achieved that state anymore. I'll get an ache in my arm, or leg which will bring me back. I'll keep trying to see which method is best. I am also working towards my awakening, so hopefully soon instead of just knowing I will also truly understand and feel the words you have shared with me. Thank you 🙏🏼

Hi Everyone!

Nice to meet all of you. Like many I have been intrigued by the OBE/AP journey and have dived in head first into everything that has to do with said AP, for the last month or two. My goals for my AP are to seek guidance, go further in my spiritual journey, and maybe see some loved ones if they are willing. I feel like since I have learned about AP, it has given me a hope that I thought I have long lost. Anyways, that was a little about me.

On to my attempts. I have read and watched so many videos on AP, I am almost burnt out I think. Those is just how I tend to do things LOL. Head first, all in kind of gal. We are a work in progress. I have been meditating daily, but usually guided. So initially I started using the guided AP meditations from YouTube and I got to what felt like very close points. Then I started to think I should probably learn to meditate and get Into the trans state without that assistance and I feel like I have regressed? Any time I did get any kind of feelings my brain automatically would turn on and be like oh here we are! You're doing it! And then be like aww well you lost it. Or it would also be like okay now calm down, stay calm. So lots of self chatter in there which led me to start trying meditation without the guides. It seems I'm not getting very far without them. At most my body will get heavy. I will try to use the phasing method, the other method of "day dreaming", but I feel that I am most hyper vigilant. Side note I have been writing all my dreams down too! Have had 3 lucid dreams so far.

Another note, I have been trying to AP for a nap around 5pm. Or at bedtime. Neither work.


I have had one successful event, but I'm not even sure how it happened. I believe I was in a lucid dream state, then woke up in the physical. But I was in mind awake body asleep. I could not move my body, thought to myself "out of body now" and a voice in my bedroom laughed at me and said "just get out of your body". So I rolled out. I could not balance, I kept falling forward and I still had my cipap on my face lol. So I kept trying to get it off with my astral hands. I gave up, and went back to my body.


That being said, idk how I woke up in that state. Because I certainly didn't actively get there.


I am getting tired, because I am getting headaches from trying too hard as mentioned not to do. But I'm trying not to try? lol it's not working though.


Thank you all for all the information you have provided here! I have enjoyed it sooo much!!
