Need opinions from experianced OBE Travelers.

[samljer]

Ive been doing "Robert Bruce/Brian Mercers" book,  mastering astral projection. ive also read; out of body exploring and beginning mindfulness.
The techniques used are a combination of these and have had little to no success. Until today.
The OBE will be written back to you, as i wrote it in my "dream journal", so it wont be written perfectly.

" " =contain in dream talking

Excerpt, OC 12/2012.
Nature did not intend for man to experience state changes in the mind as he falls asleep. - Thomas
TOM TOM TOM TOM TOM  Tom Tom Tom Tom  tom tom tom , , , , . . . .  .  .
My name was heard in my left ear only, it got faster and faster and its pitched got higher and higher then it suddenly stopped.
I thought I was having a heart attack; i managed to get up out of bed, it was very hard.

  -> not in the book -> (I was in the OBE now, but unaware I was, the OBE was true to life vivid, and i was in distress)

It was night time (didnt click that it wasnt in the physical world, as i fell asleep at 2pm)
A***** (my daughter) was up, but unmoving like a statue in her bouncy chair, and A**** my wife coming out of my sons room looked through me as if
I wasnt there, I went to the bathroom, and looked in the mirror. my face was pretty distorted and moving (my forehead narrowed and my cheecks were fat, like a pear. the middle was sucked in like a black hole).
Thinking I was still having a heart attack, I called 911, there was no ringing and a woman answered me:
saying  ( it was pretty funny)  She said
"Isnt this the kind of phone number you would expect published only in the physical plane? *She then giggled." and the line went dead.
This is when it hit me, im in an OBE. Unsure of it being from sleep or death from a heart attack; i was still overjoyed. (but i could feel my heart beating in the physical realm, odd feeling)
I went outside. It was serene, quiet and desolate.
I tried to fly, knowing that here, in this place i can. I jumped from my deck and at first it worked, then the thought came to me (dammit...)
that I shouldnt be able to fly then i came crashing to the floor. it didnt hurt.
I started to lose myself, Starting to run for no reason, no air needed?
Starting to feel like I might be dead again i wanted to wake up suddenly.
"please wake up" i said. nothing"
started to focus and say it in my mind (astral mind)
3 times it took and my eyes opened in the real world. like i never left. I wasnt ill and felt fine - the hour returned to normal
Pretty odd seeing the sun suddenly.


It was like i never left, to go nowhere, I simply closed my eyes in one existance and opened them in another.

The exit was terrifyingly like fighting death itself.
And fighting death "the feeling of death". I lost; and had my OBE.

[proyect_outzone]

It was an common exit. Many feelings can be confused with near death symptoms. But they arent. You have just supernatural perceptions, which are much intensified during the approaching of the actual exit. The fear of death is caused by the fact, that you dont know the sensations, whioch you got.  I had already many OBEs, which began in the same way like yours.

Funny and interesting is the part with the phone call.

[samljer]

Yeah the phone call still has me chuckling.
Seems she simply told me what I knew, but was unaware of.
As for the feelings, thank you, I imagined as much but needed reassurance it wasnt something latent in me
simply surfacing and that it was really just "exit" sensations.

Cool....what combinations did you use?

[samljer]

I did the "still laying" on the back, but on my right side.
Energy body work before hand.
Meditation.
Visualizing being OBE before it occurred,  "a simple repedative visualization worked, i was (changing a tire)" - sounds funny but worked.
I just imagined and visualized taking a lug nut off, keeps the focus.
