Am I on the right track?

[jereome]

Just writing to you guys for some guidance. Currently Im working towards my first astral projection and I would like to know if Im on the right track.

First I start off by laying down and then I just focus on my breathing while ignoring my body.

After a few minutes ill feel my hands and then body start tingling like my body is being starved of oxygen.

Later my body will feel like Im on some major pain killers in that my awareness of my body is dulled and to think of it I really cant feel myself breathing as before but I still do of course.

Now the real question is that I have heard that I need to experience vibrations before the OBE but what I experience I guess can be called vibrations but it feels more like static electricity dancing all over my body.

Is this vibrations and am I on the right track and if I must go further then how much further do you guys think I need to go?

I'm not sure if those are vibrations that you experienced but it sounds like you're close to projecting.  It was obvious to me when I first experienced the vibes but there are a lot of different exit and pre-exit sensations that you may experience which will vary in intensity.  The vibrations are common but aren't necessary and don't always happen when projecting.  I haven't experienced the vibes at all in my recent projections.  The next time you feel sensations like this passively observe what's going on and don't get excited so the projection process can happen naturally.
