ARG too...i wish i could help you but i was in the same situation 10 minutes ago [V]
Arg to the third. I've only gotten this far as well. Try this however, when you feel all relaxed and attempt to project with an exit technique and lets say it fails, dont give up, just shift your mind to relaxing your body more and clearing your mind then shift back to the exit technique. I have found that if I can relax the body, quiet the mind and then just focus all my attention on getting out, it usually skrews up. And if you can't get it, dont get frustrated, just tell yourself you'll try again later.
best of luck
Last night i attempted to Project.. I have a cd that i listen to, every now and then wich goes through a process of shifting the conciousness from alpha - delta waves, allowing the body to sleep while the mind stays awake[ if your not trying to intentionally pass out. Even so, if the cd is on repeat, it can trigger the mind to lucid dream more often aswell].
Well i got to a point where i knew that my body was so relaxed and asleep, that i just needed to do an exit techinque...... This is were things went wrong.....
As i was trying to 'shift' my awareness, i began to feel a pull/push to the general direction i inteded to go..... But as i was doing this, i only felt it get to a certain point, and i couldnt get it to continue any further.... I could feel how strongly i seemed to be attached to either my body, or that one point of conciousness.... No matter how much effort i put into those exit techniques i couldnt do it... i was really aggrivated and dissapointed for some reason...
To get that close to projection, and not being able to pull it off.... Anyone have any suggestions, or advise for what i could do, or should change if need be?...
I could feel my body kindof shell like, and it tingled slightly like how a limb does, when its asleep, and shifted around. I could feel myself not going any purther beyond that certain stretchy limit...
