How much time useuly to achive the first OOBE?

[SiVA]

I've been reading on Astral Projection for years, and making attempts, on and off, for the last two years. I've succeeded once.

Keep at it though, maybe your more of a "natural" (if there is one) then I am.

Dani,
       Let's see, took me about 6 weeks once I finished Astral Dynamics, however, the 16 times that I have projected have not come from the NEW oreinted heart chakra exit. I have had several coming on the verge of sleep
and a couple using the Monroe Institute or Brain Wave Mind Voyages CD's.
I have been an avid lucid dreamer for about 10 years so I'm well versed on the pre-sleep => sleep state. My first OBE though, was of a type covered in astral dynamics where you 'wake up' in the middle of a projection and find it difficult to move. The whole experience was exhilirating though and it spurned me on to try harder. Don't give up, its very rewarding and I'm still looking forward to my first fully conscious projection. I've been attempting off and on for about 9 months (mostly off) and recently have redevoted my energies toward it so hopefully I'll have a success story to post Good Luck!

With tru dedication and practice it may take inly 2 days or 2 months, or 10 years...it's all a matter of desire and understanding...and sometimes natural ability.  My point is that there really is no set answer for any one individual.

the more you hack at it in a way where you have a great desire for it without tensing up then it should come eventually atleast in a lucid dream or something.  Like bruce said if you can achieve a relaxed state but not too relaxed and keep the mind focused on one thing don't let it wander (tame the mind) chances are you should be able to achieve obe I noticed the best achieved obe's are just when you're about to wake up since your body is rest your mind is just waking up I've not yet had an obe falling asleep or consciously only when I was in a lucid dream or when I just woke up and immediately went towards doing it I succeeded few times or had a false awakening and did an obe instead.
