Techniques

Kontufuto inspired me to create this thread.
I had one experience a few years ago, that I believe was astral projection. I didn't do it on purpose. If there wasn't the crash on SF there would still be that thread about it :( Maybe when I'm not feeling lazy I'll share But ever since then I have been intrigued and have wanted to try to do it. Everyone is different, so how people go about this and what works is going to be different. Its harder for some than others. So what are your techniques that you use when projecting?

I am curious too

I can do it naturally, if I am not busy, just as you did. The secret is to quiet your mind, and to be still, physically mentally and emotionally. I find it amazingly easy so that keeps me from being an expert in teaching others. It starts with that feeling like I used to get in math class when I got so bored, tired, and utterly confused that my eyes went crossed, and I felt dizzy. I'd recommend sitting or lying in a place you won't be disturbed, and just letting your mind go blank. Start seeing images, like a dream, but you are awake... and then after a while you are fully there. It is very tricky for most people to go blank... but going blank is the first step. Do not try to control it, especially at first. You shouldn't be in control at first. Instead let your higher self control. You just relax and let go.

OK, time for my story. Tell me if this is what APing is like?
I don't remember what exactly I was doing, just laying down, have in sleep maybe, I think I was waking up. Then I felt myself in the hallway, but it felt like slow motion, I couldn't move fast. I really thought I was there, the details are a bit foggy, (darn erased threads!) but when it stopped I felt misplaced in a way, I was confused! Wasn't I just in the hallway? And my body felt soo weak, I was taking a nap! It wasn't intentionally, so maybe I woke up but wasn't back yet? haha

When you are in the meditative state, any technique will work. It is very easy. The hard part is to get into that meditative state.

The only ever time I have possibly astral projected was when I was in a really bad time in my life, I was constantly angry and stressed out. It was a normal night sleep, however for the first time in my life I had control over my dream, and I thought what the hell is going on? Usually you just follow what happens, and you are in no precise concious control.
So whilst I had contol, I thought I'd try flying. I ran and mimicked superman with his hands stretched out in front, and I was able to fly. I could see the world below me. And then I woke up.

It certainly helped me deal with what was going on in a strange way, almost as I had released some of that anger. I'd love to do it again, it hasn't happened since though.

I am touched by whatever I said to inspire you on this thread create!

My techniques are different and varied. I am reading a few new books right now that introduce even more! I do not discount any instruction as an exit strategy because every one is different and some methods work better for some than others. My ways are even different than most and some of them are based on who I am as an individual and how I handle things. One example is that I start out by sensing energy around me. I have never read that before yet I do this naturally and efficiently. I don't dwell on it but it comes to me as a first step strategy before all others. I guess I figure if my space is not clear or known then why project when it will be met with resistance! It's like a negotiation handling like merging while entering a freeway entrance!

As you pursue AP you will find your own personal exit strategy that will work for you and you'll fine-tune it so it works better and better as you experience things. I have helped others in a one-to-one scenario because I pick up the energy signature and do my magic! It is a real treat to take someone from nothing to past live recall or picking up perceptions without leaving ones body! The reactions I get are usually surprising that something like that could happen!

Please stay in touch on this subject as we would all like to hear of your progress!
