Please discribe your exit symptoms

[Adam wayne]

While I am in the vibrational state my hands clamp shut, and my wrists curl inward. When this happens I cannot open my hands, the same thing happens to my face to were I cannot open my eyes. Is this normal, or should I be concerned?

Thank you in advance for any help.

The vibrational state is an exit or preexit symptom- so why would you care about what your body does?  (like with your hands or with your eyes).  Or am I not understanding the question?

[Adam wayne]

It's just that when this happens my hands involuntarily clamp shut, and than proceed to grasp tighter and tighter. I guess I'm just asking if this is normal, or if anyone else has experienced this.

It's only happened to me when I'm not relaxed enough and have been trying to exit, tensing up without realizing it.  What works for me is to return to trance techniques and then try to exit again- but I don't stop trying.

I dont receive any vibrations. I feel my body drifting close to the edge of sleep and then i force my mind awake. When I do this I feel an immediate separation from my physical body and I roll onto my floor. It feels as if I am leaving a container (my physical body). I feel extremely light and sometimes float right out the ceiling

I don't get any vibrations either any more.  But most people who start consciously projecting get them.

at first i would get a backward spinning sensation centered in my head, in waves and could hear a vwoom vwoom vwoom sound along with it then pop and i was out. the more i did it, the wave only happened once really fast and i was out. now i just whoosh out and i'm zooming off somewhere.

You are paying too much attention to physical sensations. Remeber this experience is non physical and the more you think about physical feelings and movements the further you will get away from it.

What happens is you wind up in a fight with your mind and body, you reach the point when your body wants to sleep but your mind isnt calm and you start clinging to physical things. Stress manifests itself as it normally would in tension which is why your hands clamp. Its normal, relax try to not think at all about the body, about feeling, about anything physcial, at that point maybe just think of blackness all around keep running it through your mind until the body nods off to sleep and then you are ready to bounce.

Every time I try to project, I experience intense vibrations that usually make me just open my eyes and catch my pounding heart.  Could these exit sensations be assuaged with meditation?

The key is to relax the less you mind things about the body and the more removed it gets from it, the stranger you feel. The mind and the body counsciously arent used to being apart and the sensations can be strange.

Also your mind isnt controlling the body and all its doing is controlling thought, thats a lot of free brain power and the mind plays tricks. Its easy to imagine shadows, bad things happening, boogey men in the mist believe me. You have to just keep breathing and pushing back anything that breaks the wave. With focus you will calm down again and it will all become tranquil and dare I say more than a little dull waiting for the body to finish sleeping.

Its a learning curve, neither body nor mind particularly likes what you are doing at first and both will resist the detachment while you are conscious. Your body might twitch, tense, spasm and the mind will create distractions. in the end it all comes down to mind over matter.
