How can I astral travel without falling alsleep

[dreamercan]

I am no longer afraid of ap but I can't stay away to do it.I wake up about 3 times a night but I'm still unable to ap.Watching Tv,reading,turning the lights on or playing on my electronics still doesn't help for me because I will still fall alsleep I just want a way to stay up

Have you tried APing while sitting up or sitting in a chair?
If you conk out, you're body will jolt you awake enough to balance between those states conductive for APing. (The bigger the passing out, the bigger the jolt).

Developing concentration also helps in staying awake, too much though you may feel jittery, restless(wide-awake), too little..fall asleep. Focusing in on a point will help keep your mind occupied as you let your body fall asleep(or reorient focus to non-physical).

Basically is what you may be trying to do is retrain your mind/break a habit(falling asleep, or sleeping unconsciously), once you break the habit of unconscious sleep, APing at will is effortless(since you will be aware of the process thus circumnavigating it).

Anyway, that's what helps me, I'm sure more people will chime in with what helps them and soon enough you'll be APing rightly.

Create for yourself an etheric body/vehicle. Some might visualise the merkaba or even just a bodily form of some kind.

Practice with that.. think of it as one foot on this side, one foot on that side.

People say we do not get ap signs all the time. I get ap signs all the time. It can be very slight but if you miss it you will fall asleep every time. It helps a lot if you ap in a position that is not too comfortable for you.
