Deep relaxation, the furthest i've got

[Lucid_Learner]

I was using a simple method, concentraing on my heartbeat.

At first it was pretty difficult to concentrate, my mind kept changing subject and then I would realise what was going on and get back to the excersise.

This went on for about 15 mins and by that time my body was fully numb with that pins and needles feeling. Then I don't really understand what happened. But the heartbeat was a lot clearer, I could feel it much more it was as if the feeling had been amplified.

Not reli sure what was going on, I carried on listeneing to this amplified beat and I visualised the heart pumping away to maintain the concentration. Normally I stop after about 20 mins or so but this time I had the urge to carry on.

I carried on and I got a mixture of weird feelings with sight, hearing and touch but I can't pinpoint exactly what went on. I remember hearing a low thunder noise kind of rumble but it was constant, not like a thunder noise. I tried making the noise louder but with no success. They only lasted about 5 secs before it went back to this amplified heartbeat state which I carried on for another 5 mins or so

Didn't actually get to split but this is the furthest I have ever got. Has anyone else had feelings like this?

Hi Lucid_Learner,
I have had some of the same feelings, where the heartbeat amplifies and you sort of feel a hearbeat throughout your entire body(which could also be your heart chakra starting to become more active). Usually right after this, the blackness in front of your eyes turns deeper and 3D with sudden flashes of color.
My opinion is that the rumbling noise was an Astral sound, that you suddenly slipped deeper into relaxation, but then lost it.  Keep it up and try to go further next time, it sounds like you are close.

Fell asleep last night... haha.

I'm happy with this though because it's hard for me to fall asleep on my back, so I must have being relaxing properly for me to fall asleep on my back!

Aswell as that I had a dream I was reading a book. It had no front or back cover so I took a look inside. It was a book on Astral Projection.

Definately getting better at relaxation, I do the muscle tensing then just focus on my heartbeat and observe my thoughts. I would recommend this.

same to you KO!
