I understand completly what you mean sir. I have hit the same wall several times. The way I have been trying to get past it is, just completely forget your physical body. The more you let yourself be distracted by the physical signs your body is doing, the harder it will be to achieve the body asleep/mind awake state. Next time you feel the comings of that urge, forget about anything physical and just disconnect yourself in a sense from your physical body, if that makes sense. Haha hope this helps

As I have not had a conscious OBE I can only tell you what I read. From most of posts I've read, when you reach the vibrational state you should just let it happen, and remain calm, and when you feel your astral body, try an exit technique such as the rope technique or rolling your astral body over. Hope my very limited knowledge helps.

And in response to the feelings you were feeling, from my experience it sounds alot like vibrational state to me. My first actual experience with that state was the other night and I had a mild tiingling sensation and my heart felt like it was going to beat out of my chest. The "puking" feeling you were describing may be your reaction to feeling this state for the first time as after I experienced it I had a slight feeling of naseua afterword from the fact that feeling it for the first time frankly scared the crap out of me, :-/. Hopefully I may have shed a tiny bit of light on your quandry.

Welcome to Astral pulse!

So, a quick update for anyone caring to read about my experiences, I had my first encounter with the vibrational state last night. I was laying in bed listening to an Isochronic beat application I downloaded and just trying to relax, I'd say roughly 20 min or so into it the beat sorta started making a sound akin to standing in a room with a ton of bass playing all around me. I felt an electric like surge flowing through my body, I attempted to stay calm but the sheer suddenness of them caused my heart to nearly beat out of m chest, which brought me back to reality. Do you guys think I reached the vibrational state? Input is greatly appreciated!

The program I use is called altered states by banzai labs. I use its astral projection program when I am attempting an OBE and it works very well for getting me into the trance state. It also has settings where you adjust the length the beat plays from 20 min to 8 hours. If any of you have an iPod or iPhone you should definately check it out. It was a great deal at 1.99 at least in my opinion

I completely agree! I am striving to get a conscious OBE for some time now. I have had extensive experience with LD though and seem to have the most control in these dreams. I was thinking the same thing about my astral body interacting with their astral bodies as sometimes when in an LD if things are fuzzy I just demand clarity and my vision clears. I think it would be awesome to have a conscious OBE and meet with someone in the astral plane.

Well Hesperus, yes my dreams were in color, thankfully . As for interpreting them, usually when I have had a dream about HS or old friends, I am usually am craving validation as I haven't been getting it at home. Seeing my old friends, even if it is in a dream makes me feel as if I'm wanted and needed by someone. I know it sounds sad, but with my experiences, that's what this type of dream has come to represent to me. Any other questions or insight I would love to hear.

So, I posted in the members intro forum and I said I would let you guys know of any LD or AP I experience so here goes.

The dream starts out with me walking down one of the main boulevards of my town. It seemed normal until I realized nearly every person in my town was outside and everything was covered in ice and they were slipping and falling everywhere. It's at that point that I became lucid as I looked down and noticed I wasn't slipping and falling as I was hovering a few inches off the ground. At that point I used my method for flying (if any of you have seen Heros the tv series, imagine the way that Nathan petrelli takes flight. As I am up in the air, I visualize going somewhere warmer and start flying, as I'm flying I feel a shifting sensation and end up in the parking lot of my old HS. I see friends from school talking on the ground and some of them are talking and pointing at me as I am about 50 feet above the ground. I land and walk over to a friend that I went to school with. He asks me "dude, how were you flying?! Thats not possible!" at that point I say just grab my hand. I then take off and he is flying with me. We flying around the school and as we are about to land, I wake up. Wish I could of stayed longer but let me know what you guys think!

Alright, once again NoY you share your wisdom with a lowly noob such as I. I apologize if I'm annoying you with these questions as well. I just hope to attain the level where I can have a concious OBE at will and meet with other forum goers in the astral.

Thank you NoY, I will try that tonight, I also noticed that once I had become relaxed enough, when my eyes are closed, purplish forms will fluctuate kinda the same way if you push the back of your hands hard againsts closed eyes and have those flashes of light. Should I attempt to concentrate on those purple forms or is that completely counterproductive?

Well, time to update you all with my experience last night. After looking through the material you guys provided, I decided to try the white energy flowing in on the in breath and the cleansing purple fire with the out. I was able to get to fairly relaxed in about 20 min, but when I attempted to relax further, my random thoughts shattered it all. So even though I'm sure there is something posted about clearing your mind, do anyone of you guys have personal tricks for clearing your mind in order to enter the correct level of relaxation for OBE? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all once again for being so awesome

Thank you grey, I've been perusing the FAQ and have found some good tips. I will follow your advice and I will update you all with my experience tonight. Thanks for all the support everyone.

Thank you both for those articles, do you guy have advice about how to clear my mind as I think this might be where the troubles lie. Also I have trouble getting my eyes to settle down in order to see the 3d blackness, any advice for that as well? Sorry if I sound like a complete noob but I would just like to get the best info possible. Thanks in advance for the advice. And Ryan and NoY, very nice to meet you both.

Well as the title states, I am new to astral pulse and just wanted to post and see if any of you can give me any advice on how I can improve my chances of having a successful AP. I have always
Been interested in lucid dreams, astral projection, psychokinesis and the like. When I do dream, I usually can make myself lucid with little to no effort. My main problem is when I attempt to AP, it seems like I can relax my whole body, but cannot achieve SP or the vibrational stage.
I have been looking through these forums looking for people who have had similar difficulties, but searching is challenging on a phone which is how I access these forums. Any advice from master to newbie would be greatly appreciated.
