i understand ya all the way, many of us have had that kind of feeling all the time when having an obe. my advice is to just say to yourself "nothing can hurt me in the astral world" everything is a thought from you. well not everything but what apperas in front of you is. and that adds on to the world around you. even you are a prperty of the astral realm wehan APing. If anything scary happens just think of getting back into your body and youll be back in no time. as for sleep paralysis i would just stay calm and be aware of whats around you. i call sp a test of fear, which is something to make you get over having that scary feeling and being afraid of whatmight look and sound scary to you.When you stay calm, the sp will fade off and you will be free to fly around. i wish you many good journeys and good night.

Very best,
Thanks for your advice!!! I think it may just take time.. when im ready im ready! Its all just so weird.. in a half in hour my whole life changed i feel like there is so much i never knew about before its so exciting and frustrating because no one really understands (friends and fam) where im coming from. But i feel soooo lucky anyway and when the time is right I guess it wil just come. As for the SP I hear alot of people dont like it... i actually did.... i remember checking back in with my body when i saw my astral legs and realized there was shoes on them... but i KNEW i didnt go to sleep with shoes.. i think thats when i went back to my body.. i liked at that point being able to reflect on my position and that yes indeed i had no shoes on... so SP wasnt a issue i think its more the whole amazing blow to my world and my whole thouht process on life changing... and Im a little hesitant for it to happen again...but want it to so it will when im ready
BUT THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY[:D]
Grateful is good. There are many that strive and desire to have such experiences their whole lives and never succeed. Some that devote themselves to the belief that OBE and NDE are true, but never have one themselves. My biggest question in life is why people that don't know or care about OBE and NDE have them without wanting them... while those that want them more then anything often don't have them. Every answer brings up a dozen more questions!
Not really important, but I'm faily sure you mean 180. 360 is a full circle.
Good luck. [:)]
Its illogical to be scared of OBEs because most dreams are OBEs (with less awareness).
Hey Jrd! and welcome!

I have never seen anyone else mention these!! I had this while young also. I use to make them change colors and turn them into little bugs and make them walk around on my floor!
The fear is quite normal, I still have bits but, thank-goodness as time has gone on, I can put it aside. I think now that you know what this is all about, you are gonna do great!
Happy Travels, Jrd [:D]

In my limited experience with OBE I can say obsession has never helped. Those who want OBE more than anything are essentially obsessed, and obsession never worked for me...turns you heavy,and slow..There must be a change of mind in that sense.Astral body uses a diferent lenguage, is very subtile..and thin enough to get through aparent contradictions such as: wanting without wanting.So...

Hey Do you remember this it was way back in NOV. Anyway I dont know why i never replied but looking back what do you think that those colored flying objects were??? I have never heard anyone mention these either. They would be tons of them flying around my room sometimes at very slow intervels and then would speed up and zoom away only to come right back in my face. They would provide much amusement. Anway its quite strange how I was not frightened and did not feel the need to let anyone know about this. Its almost like it was natural and deep down I knew that there was nothing to be said or scared of. I dont know.. it reminds me of a tea bag I read once. "Those who know nothing of life talk alot, those who know alot talk very little" Anway I remember have them appear in numerous shapes and colors. Recently they have come back although not as clear but defiantly visibily they are larger and take on a more geometric shape. Although not as colorful they still move around the same, fast then very slow. ANy ideas??
First experience..like a lot of things in life...can be unnerving..when I had my first OBE aged 17 i shouted"get back! get back!"
But as you say..it changes your life..spiritual perspectives..beliefs etc.
Good luck.
Lol, my first significant obe, felt so natural to start with I kinda new I was outa body but didnt care. I watched my self bieng taken off to hospital then went off exploring, It felt so good! in the end I got told it was time to go back by some one. And that was that.
Ive seen the coloured things, I still see them now if I meditate before bed. Relax and go with flow Jrd, the universe wont throw anything at you your not capable of handeling, Dont forget OBE can be a very natural thing to happen. Nothing bads going to happen to you, its probably a wake up call, and the start of a very interesting adventure of self discovery.
Best whishes, Marcus.
Marcus - was that a near death experience? What happened?
Sarah
Hey Sarah, [:)] dont know if it was near death? but it wasent good! 10 years ago I was concust and was drifting in and out of conciosness for around four hours, I had a few OBEs that day cos I remember bieng back in my body a couple of times and then out again. It changed my life.
Wow! Have you had OBEs since then, when you've been OK?
yes, Ive woken in my sleep and found myself A.P ing a couple of times and ive also found I can relax and O.B in a fairly short space of time, but only for a few seconds as I dont know enough about it and its not realy on top of my list of things to do. Some times when im meditating which ive been doing nearly a year now [:)] I leave my body just a litte to see if I can do it and then get back in. May be Ill go adventuring again one day, Regards Marcus x
Hello,
Well it is my first time in a forum but it is for great reason! The other week or so ago i had my first OBE and it was the most intense life changing thing that has ever happen to me. I had no knowledge about this subject at all and decided to look up lucid dreams the morning after and found all this info. i had everything from the buzzing noice, a glittery ball, the flying above me, trying to scream for my roomate and lots more..... it was amazing. Its funny now cause i remember things similiar to this happening to me all my life. When i was little I would always see these small colored objects in my sleep, millions of them flying around me and my hand would go right through them... they were as real as day.... and I read somewhere the other day about them being some typeof energy object... well now im completly interested about all this and my whole life took a 360... the only problem is Im a little frigtened. Every night i find myself half waking up and trying to ignore what could possible turn out to be a OBE. I want to have them again and feel very capable to but i am fighting it. Any words of advice and comfort for a begining..... I was never frightened about any of this until now.. that i know whats going on. I feel grateful for this experience and i think we are all lucky to have this happen to us... just need some advice and people who actually understand me! Thanks!!!
