Also worth mentioning, apparently I got some bad advice. I don't know where I read I was supposed to be completely numb, but the 80% numb as you put it I've been achieving consistently.

The energy work / tactile imaging where you "massage" your body with awareness speeds up the numbing process dramatically. If I go that route, it only takes about 10 minutes which is the time involved going all over the body from top to bottom.

Appreciate the response Todd but that technique is unlikely to work for me. I have insomnia and it takes a while for me to fall asleep.

Xantha:

I read some of your blog, especially the part about visualization that lead me to astral dynamics. I've read in the past but it was good to brush up, the tactile imaging bit. Also downloaded your ebook on phasing which I'm about half way through, but I'm going to give the "be aware of images and movements in the blackness" method a go next time rather than trying to visualize. For some reason, I find it incredibly difficult to daydream with my eyes closed but it's simple with them open, go figure.

I don't know where you're from, but American milk is also poison. It's banned in Canada and a few other places. It contains bovine growth hormone and RGF1. Assuming that those growth hormones weren't in there, it still wouldn't be particularly healthy. Pasteurization kills off a lot of the vitamins and nutrients and the calcium itself is damaged so that it's not absorbed as easily by the body.

Don't disagree with you about soda at all though. I was drinking diet soda up until about 5 months ago and the aspartame in that was causing brain damage. If you've ever stood up and lost sight and hearing followed be a dizzy spell, that would be the culprit responsible. That experience was occurring for me about twice a week and had been for a solid year. I haven't experienced it once since I stopped, but I started drinking regular soda and put on weight because of it. It'd be nice to find a good water source but that's unlikely as well.

A lot of bottled waters contain very small doses of antidepressants and the tap water I have leaves hard water stains on pots and pans so whatever is in that stain I'm drinking... Yay for conspiracy I suppose man haha.

Oh yeah, one other thing I noticed. That moon experience I had and mentioned in the OP was subconscious imagery so that's a new milestone at least. Hell, I may have even projected because I lost my body completely in those 5 seconds and with the hiss I was brought right back. Damn reptilians

Thanks for the help. I kind of figured practicing more of the same was going to be what I was told. The soda thing I already looked up, but water just isn't doing it for me. Seems to make my mouth and throat too dry, but it's worth a try I suppose. Need to find something other than soda to drink regardless.

I'll be back to complain some more after another 30 or so hour + experiences  

EDIT: The "feeling", better yet intuition, came along with noticing that the ringing had dulled if not stopped completely. The hissing sound startled me too much and I did keep going for another 15 minutes, but it never progressed.

Those of you that are projecting, I have no idea how you're doing it unless it's happening fairly quickly. Over the last week, I've laid completely still for an hour and an hour and a half. Neither time did I reach complete numbness, so something's off.

There's an insane itching that occurs mostly on the face and I've heard this referred to as cobwebs, energy blockage. In the past, I would give up and scratch because it was unbearable, but as of late, it's almost been a teeth grinding experience to endure, but I do it in the hopes of clearing the blockage. Rarely does it occur anywhere outside of the face. To those who project frequently, do you no longer get this sensation?

The ringing sound that's heard during attempts I hear almost 24/7 except it's in the background and I have to have a quiet my mind to notice. Getting it to go faster and increase in frequency I've only had minor success with towards the end of the attempts.

Another issue is saliva. I would think it's safe to assume you have to keep your mouth and tongue still in order for them to reach numbness, but that's damn near impossible when your mouth fills up with saliva. With one of those recent attempts, I held a mouth full of spit for an hour and a half which was another nuisance. For the other, I tried to project from laying on my side with my mouth open lol. Needless to say, I drooled quite bad. Any advice on this?

In the past I've had some odd experiences, near exits it seems. Two I recall well. In one instance, I had closed eye sight and was staring out the back of my head whilst laying in a recliner. That lasted for about 5 seconds before fading back to black. In the other, I heard what sounded like a train passing right by me when there's no railroad within 10 miles of where I was. With my most recent experience from laying on the side, something new happened as well.

I was doing my best to visualize and disassociate with my body. However, that changed to something intuitive that I didn't consciously generate (daydream about). There was an image of the moon in the night's sky with what looked like blue electricity coming off of it (think Tesla Coil). When it appeared I focused on it with all of my intent and then comes this loud hiss as if it were right on top of me. It didn't sound like a cat hiss, but more of a reptilian nature. It caught me off guard and from that point forward it seemed like continuing was futile, but that was nothing more than a feeling.

Any advice or help anyone could give to achieve projection would be much appreciated. I used to get vibrations, but not any longer and I'm suspecting that's due to my body not going numb. With the "thoughts generate magnetism holding you to your body" theory, my mind's pretty blank. My desires and stresses are almost nil, and it's felt like I've been meditating with my eyes open for nearly a year now. Also, I've tried both early in the day and at night attempts, and in my experience, the ones at night seem to progress further.

My main reason for wishing to project is to check on someone who I suspect is my twin soul. I read a story of there being some kind of colored cord (orange I think) attachment between twin souls like the silver cord that holds your astral self to the physical. Besides that, I'm curious to see if the energy or awareness changes in her presence. We're not on good terms after me trying to express some strange unconditional feeling too quickly, but that feeling never went away and she's honestly made it easy for me to care about someone else more than myself. Once that's done I'm sure there's plenty to explore
