How to stay out longer

[Bedeekin]

Hey Suzy... try anchoring yourself using the nonphysical environment. Sometimes being inactive within the experience causes one to lose focus. I anchor either by rubbing my hands together and blowing on them (as a last resort) or literally grabbing or feeling around parts of the environment... literally 'anchoring'.

Thanks Bedeekin, your advice is appreciated.  That is probably what I am not doing and that is anchoring myself properly.  I will do that when I get out next time.  A part of my problem is I may be rushing.  I will take things slower next time.

when you are actively doing something - just have the attitude of a curious observer and always touch, feel and zoom in on things. When you are thinking about what you want to do next or what you want to create with your mind - start rubbing your hands while you think about these things. I sometimes find it difficult to create very specific things in the Phase. I once wanted to create a circle with the Flower Of Life sacred geometrical shape and I couldn't do it in about 5 seconds but I was rubbing my hands in each other and other things of that nature. Had I not done that but only waited for my mind to create it - I would have been put back in my body. I have been returned to my body a few times when I try to imagine a person or something more complex and just stay there doing nothing but wait. Rubbing is the way to go. I wonder if when you encounter different entities in the astral, maybe other astral projectors, do they also rub their hands or other parts of their body. I can only imagine a room full of astral projectors all rubbing their hands like they are thinking of some evil plan

Thank you LoLmart.  I am sure that information will be very useful and helpful.  When I am out of my body, I do not see anyone rubbing their hands.  I probably see dead people or dreamers not astral projectors.

It's a curious thought that neither do we see lots of people/entities flying around.

This is interesting..

It seems that it may be a natural thing to do for some people... unless you heard about the method from somewhere else.

Lol that would be funny for sure!=)

How to stay out longer? This is exactly the question I asked a teacher in a LD. I was in a class and became aware and I went to him and asked out: How can I remain longer in this state? He gave me 3 or 4 tricks. Unfortunately, I could only remember two! First, he told me to write down my experiences. And secondly, he told me not to do anything stupid while in there. Guess what? After wandering just a little bit, I found a beautiful woman, had sex with her and woke up! I wish I could remember the two other pieces of advices he gave me! I have met him again but I forgot to ask. I like the idea of telling yourself: I am aware! Also, I believe intentions could be useful here... for example, I was really bothered by sex killing my experiences, so after noting down such an experience, I wrote my next intent. Something like: I don't want to have sex while projecting... if anything I want to have a beautiful experience of love and not go farther than hugging and kissing. It's exactly what happened the next time! Those love dreams are priceless and they last much longer than the sex ones!

Last thing, when you say your projections doesn't last long... do you mean you physically wake up or you just go back to the stage of vibrations? Don't allow yourself to wake up, let the vibrations fill you over and over and keep going out!

Sometimes I physically wake up and it is the end of the experience.  Other times I physically wake up and I lie still.  I ap again or I am aware I am out of my body.
