Thanks for that, thats exactly the sounds I was on about!

Whats the best way of making use of them? Lie in bed with headphones? Or in a relaxed position on a sofa? I suspect you can use these together with meditating body positions?

BTW any idea about those knocking noises I mentioned earlier?

Thanks so much for the response, all this has kept me wondering for a few years actually!

I forgot to mention that I frequently hear "knocking" sounds when sleeping. It's hard to pinpoint when exactly they are, I'm pretty sure last night it was in the middle of my sleep but sometimes it occurs in the morning and I rush to the door expecting a parcel or something but finding no one there, also checked with my housemate to see wether he was knocking. I've experienced this in several places I've lived, including different countries.
It's usually just 1-2 clear knocks, sounds like a knock on wood too!

I checked the FAQ and I'm reading through the LD4all.com website for additional information, thanks for the tip!

As a musician I find myself very interested in sound and the physics of sound and have frequently stumbled upon "binaural frequencies" that supposedly help with meditation and other things (I've even seen some for helping quit tobacco?) What's your stance on that?

I've never meditated before in my life! I have a racing brain and I rarely achieve these "moments of clarity". I suspect mindless meditation requires just that, a clear mind! I'm having trouble finding much on "mindless meditation". I've searched the forum but only found references, not a guide per se.

Thanks again for the clarification on what I'm experiencing! I'm a complete virgin to all this meditation/OBE etc but very very open to it as I know some peopel that do it regularly and it has always fascinated me endlessly!

Hey guys I just registered on this forum because I've had a few questions on my mind about this for a long time!
I'm quite a fan of astral travelling, it sounds absolutely mind blowing yet I don't think I've ever done it.

Sometimes at night when I'm half asleep and thinking about the most random thing (as I do pretty much every night) I wake up feeling winded and borderlining panick attack state. Heart racing, feeling winded and as I open my eyes It feels like i need to take a huuuuuuuge breath, like i just spent 5 minutes underwater.
The oddest feeling though is just as I wake up I feel like I've been "dropped back in" to my body? I do suffer from mild anxiety but in most cases I wake up like that without something triggering the anxiety, its just how I wake up mid sleep.
Now as I said before I've never had an experience that was real astral travelling I don't think but I've read of the waking up process feeling like you are dropped onto your bed at 5cm height or something?

I find it very hard to remember more than snapshots or feelings about dreams the next day but I'm very open to this  and would be glad if any of you could tell me whats going on?
Maybe im just making myself believe something awesome is happening to me or something i dont know

Thanks in advance for any answers
