Question about concentration :)

[astralsuzy]

From my experiences trying to AP at night time I do not have to concentrate. I just have to be aware, stay awake and wait for it to happen. It always happens if I persevere long enough. Sometimes it does not take long and other times it does. If I try to AP during the day, I have to concentrate to AP, otherwise I am too alert and it will not happen.

Nope, the whole point is to be awake when it happens!
Well I am sure you have or will have loads of advice on different techniques, but the way my visualization works for me is based around a few significant things. And i'm just a novice, thus i'm not some people, who can AP without doing anything.
I concentrate on the feeling of energies in my body, and the feeling of my chakras. When I have connection with the feelings of energies, I no longer have the ability to let my mind stray on anything else. I visualize the energies all around my body firstly, which means i see them. I FEEL all the energies in and around my body. Once you can actually feel the energies, pulsing, vibrating, heating, tingling, whatever it feels like to you, you can then experiment with "pushing" them up and out of your body.
Um. I ran into an odd thing, where i was concentrating on just parts of me leaving, like my feet, and it happened. My feet were floating away, but the rest of me was still there. Not very good, so it's good to imagine the full of you leaving.
Sometimes I ask my spirit guides for help. They have a few times, stepped into my visualizations, and gave me their hands, in pulling me gently, or lifting me gently up. OR i just imagine white light energies, underneath me, creating the force that will lift up my own energies. OR, i simply imagine my own energies floating upwards. When i imagine my chakras floating up, it happens fast and really intense. Scares the **** out of me. I haven't gotten to explore anywhere, because of my stupid fear But oh well, need to work on that fear.
In all, this could take a very long time, if you are not accustomed to visualization, let alone the feeling of your energies.
And you sort of have to do it all at once, if you know what i mean. You may have to repeat it.
Also, when you begin visualizing your etheric body, your energies, your chakras, you may receive real visions of what they truly look like. If this doesn't happen, just make up what you think they should look like, for me, i received full blown pictures behind my eyes, like on a screen.
