Yes, it does. Robert Bruce has suggested using the rope technique by itself to induce a trance, raise some energy, and stimulate the primary chakras. This way there is less risk that concentration can weaken and reduce the odds of getting out of body.
I think even the body awareness exercise can trigger obe on its own. From my experience whats amazing whatever you do in the physical if you don't obe successful chances are you will enact it in your dream when its a thousand times easier. I recall both scenarios where I felt my whole body vibrate a lot and I just walked out so the body awareness exercises if successful to raise the body vibration enough/numb the body at the same time obviously will make it easy to just walk out. I even tried the circular wheel technique and I swear one time I just got ejected out of my body (no vibrations). Personally I like the body awareness because it does not tense the body thats the most annoying thing your body does vibrate but at the same time it tenses when doign rope technique, I don't know how I can overcome the tension on the body unless that is supposed to be normal? A third technique that seems to work if you do body awareness exercises a lot, sometimes you may see a dream sequence and say hey I'm in my bedroom doing body awareness exercise this is all fake and then I become lucid (then the body starts to numb up/paralysis) and then sometimes can obe at that point or wake up from it in other words you are aware you're dreaming and can sort of control it. Its neat when you do it in the dreamworld cause you realize what things have to feel if you're in the conscious state doing obe and what mistakes you're doing like for example going into lucid mode I was successful many times and one time I wasn't because I didn't spend enough time being aware and letting the body kick into paralysis enough for me I hurried up in telling it this is fake shut down now and I woke up instead of obe. I think its the same way with meditation never be impatient in obe'ing cause you can screw up your meditation that way just like in your dream. Thats the cool thing about the dreamworld you can sort of see what your mistakes are and correct them, betcha any money for many who are succesful ober's they all had trial error and fine tuning.
For me, it feels like it, even if I don't project.
