[Kachineo]

first off al I want to say sorry if you dont understand my english, I believe its pretty lame.

ok, I have been trining for on month and 2 weeks, but with not really wanting to get nothing, these last 4 days, I was really wanting to have and OBE, but I still cant, I'mean, I think I'm doing everything right.
First I relax my whole body, tense-relax, every muscle, until I feel its okay, then I start breathin, camly, inhale...... exhale.....(nose-mouth), when I believe I'm relaxed completely I start to try to erase my thoughts, but I cant, I have done a lot of thinks, I readed the robertpeterson's book and there it says a good technique was imagine you mind, and then swap it to blackness, I do it, but nothing hapens, I can never get to body asleep-mind awake, any tips?, I think that the main problem is that... I'mean if you see other problems on my explanation, well, just tell me.... pls. byebye and thanks

Well thinking about erasing your thoughts, or blanking out your thoughts seems to be counteractive. The more you think about clearing your mind the more stray thoughts will come about and the more frustrated you will get. It's not a problem to focus on one small thought, even if its just a word you repeat over and over mentally to yourself. If you keep one small constant thought thats perfect and helpful,  you just want to avoid having convoluted thoughts because what happens is if you are relaxed enough you will get lost in the thoughts and the mind becomes trapped into a endless loop of thoughts, sometimes dreams result from the thoughts then your consciousness seems to be absorded into that.

   What I do exactly is this, I use a breathing exercise and use my diaphram to breath as much as possible, breathing this way relaxes me to the point where I do not even need to do muscle relaxation techniques. I breath in through my nose for two seconds a nice steady deep breath while I push my stomache outwards (not forcifully but I let it rise as much as possible). I breath out through my mouth for two seconds a nice steady breath out while I let my stomache lower as naturally as possible.

   Breathing this way uses the diaphram to breath which is the way we are meant to breath anyway. While doing all of this I count in my head one....two... while breathing in.... one....two while exhaling. The the entire time Im thinking one,two,one,two,one,two you will get so relaxed that you may forget to keep counting or feel it's no longer needed and that is fine. Ten minutes into this (sometimes a little more, sometimes less) I start to feel numbness creeping through my legs, fingers...etc Around this time I usually having muscles starting to twitch in my legs mostly (which seems to mark the limbs becoming relaxed, its like the tension leaving causes the muscles to twitch). Not long after this I feel the beginning of the vibrations in my head. Sometimes I reach them and become unconscious then come to during the vibrations and am able to exit. Sometimes I can go straight to the vibrations and exit without a period of unconsciousness... I guess it all depends but I more than not succeed, so long as I make my attempt during the day (because at the end of the day Im tired from work...etc. so I end up falling asleep).
