energy projection and ouch

[deepsky]

on trying to project i tried with all my might to levitate above my physical, but couldn't, exhausted, i flowed back down to my body only to come to with a spasm or cramp originating from lower back. it was not pleasant tho not overly painful. Is this normal?
perhaps built up energy in the base Chara area that caused this spasm/cramp like thing cause Ive had pulsating sensations there which seems to rhythm with that of heart chakra... anyway It felt scary like i was having a fit .. tho i don't suffer from that kinda thing before in life (only leg cramps) ... i thought something was really wrong. since then i haven't achieved any more astral experiences so maybe i did some kind of damage? do i need to time to heal, re balance energy? Thanks for reading.

It sounds like you may have been trying too hard.  

It should be more of a natural feeling, not straining.

I would suggest that you leave it until your back feels fully recuperated, and then relax and go with the flow, don't try and force anything - you won't get anywhere that way.

I find that going completely limp, and then going even limper, without forcing the limpness, tends to work for me.

Good luck!
