I can use some advice on this...

[Cezyl]

In a bit of self-advice I see one thing going on. In the terminology of Robert Bruce I need to work on my core skills. I don't remember the last time I actually felt relaxed, or consciously did relaxation exercises to the point of actual relaxation. I do mostly half-assed relaxation attempts so I can get to the projection stuff. Bad idea. (Think Animaniacs.) To give myself some credit, I remember when I used to get out or reach projection state often I was a virtual master at meditation, energy work, and relaxation. I used to do at least 40 minutes of meditation before EACH OBE attempt, and had the patience to meditate and relax for the sake of it. Now I am just hurrying through relaxation to get to the good stuff. I shall read the core skills in AD and work on those more, and further subjugate my ego. Still I want to give myself credit at least some and pull up some of the exercises I used to do, which are still a battery of meditation and concentration and relaxation exercises which I pulled together from several combinations of online and paper literary sources.

Thanks. Please come with more advice. Thank you all for listening. Thank you Tania for the advice.

Hey all...

I need some help. My practices are starting to go downhill, largely in part to the fact that I am still undecided on what technique to do. By the time I go to lie down I have three things I want to do, and it doesn't work out. I think I need to get my focus down, and decide on something. The dream thing is good in theory, but I don't seem to have the patience to dedicate myself wholly to dream work. I think: Well, perhaps tonight I'll be able to get straight out. And if I focus only on dreams its: perhaps I could have just gotten straight out.

My friend Tania suggests I work on spiritual growth more (break from OBE for a little while, solely meditation and vibrational raisings and stuff???), but the part of me that feels MAYBE OBE is my next attempt keeps me anxious and pushing on without more spiritual development, but I am failing.

Advice, tips, examples from your experience, ideas???

P.S.
I'm going practice now. In the words of the one in need of advice, maybe THIS TIME I'll get out. []

Peace
