Just joined this community, and I have to admit I got a really good impression of this forum. Seems to be full of thinking and positive (two qualities that don't always appear in tandem) people, as some very knowledgeable indeed.
I'm in my early 40s and had my first OBE last October using the wake-back-to-bed method. Since then, I've had another 3 such experiences. I'm looking to develop and explore this, and of course I hope to get to the point where I can just project at will. Lately, I ran into this forum and the writing of Frank Kepple, and this is something I'd really like to explore.
Greetings and welcome to the Astral Pulse! :-)
Frank's threads are a great place to start. I have read them about 10 times over and still go back for pointers today. You will find that many people make this practice much harder than it needs to be. It all centers around focus and the ability to hold that focus. There are many ways to do that. You just have to find a way that you yourself are comfortable with. You will find this portion of the Forum very helpful to do just that.

@lumaza - thanks for the welcome! I'll make sure to delve into the section you recommended.
Hello Second and welcome. Looking forward to your input. We do have a pretty diverse and intelligent community. Small at the moment but always moving.
@nameless - thank you for the welcome, and I'm certainly looking forward to take part here. The forum struck me as holding a high intellectual level as well as a positive and friendly tone, which was one of the reasons I chose to join.
Hey, that's the same reason I joined. :-D And haven't regretted a day.
