Last night experience

[Snydaleid]

Last night I woke up to use the bathroom.  Not sure what time it was since I didn't look at the clock.  I had a little difficultly getting back to sleep.  When this happens I usually flip over and sleep on my belly since this is the most comfortable for me.  I was just trying to fall back asleep, I wasn't trying to project or anything.  I felt myself getting closer to falling asleep and all of a sudden a tingling sensation came over me.  It covered my entire body as fast as you can snap your fingers.  My vision then went to the end of the hallway in my apartment.  I moved forward towards my bedroom and then I turned and faced the closed bedroom door. My vision then went back to me in the bedroom.  I could still feel tingling sensation but it was going away.  During this experience  I felt myself laying in bed tingling but my vision was in the hallway and I felt like I was awake.  I'm not really sure what to make of it.  I've never experienced anything close to an OBE or astral projection before.  It happened so fast.  I just thought I'd write someone on here and get some comments.

We could split hairs and say that you had a partial exteriorization of your etheric body and sent it searching down the hallway or some such esoteric jargon...That's what may be happening with remote-viewing.

I say, wherever your awareness is, you is.  Even if just briefly, you gave yourself permission to fly down the hallway and back again.

Congratulations on your first OBE!

Are we having champagne?

Well, now you have experienced a Projection. 

As for what "remote viewing" is...
It's a projection where you're viewing an environment/scenario from a distance, instead of actually being there yourself.

Thank you both for your comments.  It was so unexpected because I wasn't even listening to my guided meditations or even thinking about it.  I really hope it happens again.

That's most likely why you were successful, lol! 

It sounds like you had a deep NP (non physical) focus, which is all you really need to project.

Snydaleid,

Since we talked about 40 days ago, what do you think you have changed in your approach to get to this point? Something has obviously worked!

Hopefully this has spiked your interest again. If you haven't already started a dream/obe journal, you should. Take the time to write a thorough description and concentrate on the "feel" of the experience, not your emotions, but how you perceived your awareness during each phase of the event: the tingling at the beginning, your motion up and down the hallway, and back again in your physical body. The whole experience has a feel to it and you need to replay it in your mind in order to memorize it on many levels. This way you are programming your inner/higher self to look for and recognize this feel in the future.

Sorry it's taken me this long to reply.  My Grandma is back in the hospital and that's consumed my life.  I come home feeling exhausted and I haven't had the time to focus on this a whole lot.  I do try to when I can but it's not as much. Right after we talked I did change up how I was trying to AP.  It wasn't working very well.  I'd feel restless and unable to focus so I'd remove the headphones so I could fall asleep.  This seems to happen every time.  I wasn't getting anywhere.  Last night I returned to doing it the old way and my arms and head started to move again like I explained in that other thread.  The movement is way faster than when it started.  I did it without the meditation this time too.  I got the tingling sensations for a little while but I didn't see anything other than the blackness when your eyes are closed in the dark.  It's so strange how that happens.
I'm still really interested in doing this.  I just have some distractions right now.  I'll start a dream journal and record what you're suggesting.  I know it's not going to happen for me over night but in time I hope to get more experiences.

Ok thanks.  I hope I can learn to better focus like that so I can do it again.
