I have had a couple of OOBE and seem to gain awareness of it as it is about to begin. My problem is that when I do, I tend to get over excited and try too hard to control it and everything just spins out of control and BAM , I'm back in my body or am awake etc. I have tried everything from relaxing to full out concetration. Still, I can never get it to last long enought to do any exploring, I just spin out of control. What am I doing wrong?

Hi. I am new to this forum and generally new to OOBE and astral projection. I would like to share my experiences with you all and hope to make friends in the process, and maybe have some questions answered because I really don't have nobody to talk to.
   
    I have had numerous experiences as a child with OOBE and lucid dreaming. I was able to hold visions in my mind and either "make things happen" or I was able to "see the future." When I was younger I also had 1 on 1 conversations with God on a daily basis. Growing up in todays society, I feel has robbed me of the significance of these experiences. I dismissed them as me being "crazy, selfish, egotistical etc." Things like school, peers, and negative influence from the media has wiped my mind clean of any spiritual sense. I feel as if my life is going backwards and that I was actually "smarter and wiser" when I was younger, before my mind was "polluted." I became a shallow person , commited my share of sins, and to a head first spiral down the ladder of life.

    So life goes on and I start to look for answers. I ask myself questions like "why is it so hard for the world to realize true hapiness? Why are people so obsessed with materialistic wealth, or fame and vanity? Why do people need an "American Idol" to sing and dance when so many people around the world are starving?"

    Asking these questions brought me to a realization that nobody is going to magically appear and fix the worlds problem. I need to take responsabilty for my own actions and start from me and hope that otheres too will realize this so we can begin a TRUE network of healing the world and its people. I started with diet and excercise. Eating good food and being more active was the first baby step, getting back in tune with my nervous system and erasing all negative actions from my life. I started to read books about self help and reading expanded my vocabulary better than any television program. I now believe that regular television is a way for "evil" to enter our homes and tempt us into wanting and needing to buy things we don't need. I got rid of all toxic friends and negative influences in my life, and am working on developing a tolerance to "negative" things and ppl that I can't escape because of circumstances.

    Little by little I was able to gain my confidence back. I started to hear God's voice again. Not like I used to , but he acknowledges me as if he were saying "welcome back." I had my first Lucid dream (I FLEW!) and even had a couple of OOBE experiences which brings me to the questions I wanted to ask some of you in the first place. Sometimes when I close my eyes I see spirits or beings that float around or above me, and some even race toward me as if it were taunting or trying to scare me. I am not afraid because God looks after me, they are like punks who prey on innocent defenceless people. What are these things?

Another incident is when I woke up and saw a thin figure looking at me motionless, just standing there. We stared at each other and I ended up just going back to bed. What was this figure and why was I so afraid?

And the most important incident happened when I took a nap in the afternoon. I woke up to see a child like figure standing by my bed. The face was deformed so I couldnt relate the face to anyone I knew so I knew it wasnt just a regular dream. I had the impression it was a he and he was wearing only a pair of shorts. A white light was glowing all around him as well as yellow sparks of electricity, I will NEVER forgot the yellow sparks. He started to punch my face (right between the eyes) as yellow sparks charged through his hands and onto my face. I felt tingly vibrations like electricity. Suddenly I was not afraid. I just lay there while he did this. I felt like he was more a friend than someone who is trying to hurt me. He was nothing like that grey figure I've seen. What was this being? Was it harming me or healing me?

    Thanks for reading and sorry for such a long post. I just want to hear what your opinions are maybe some of you can shed some light on the questions I ask. I feel it is only the beginning of greater things to come and I feel we all play a big part in it I wish you all happiness and courage in your own journeys. Godspeed

Cora, YES! That is exactly what I mean. You can't just simply "let go." That is exactly the kind of advice I need , just didnt know the words. I'll try to keep the intent, but remain calm and simply let it go..."unfold" as you may. Thanks, I will try tonight and let you know how it goes.

Don't give up. Let your love for your sis be your courage. Put her life in front of your own and try it again. Instead of trying too hard to find the locale, maybe just try and make a connection with her to see if she is alright. Listen to her soul or voice instead of trying to find exactly where she is. Good luck.

Yes. You are right. There is no "easy" way. Guess I was hoping someone had a technique or method I can use for whenever I start to "spin out." Thanks for the reply. []
