Relax,just try to take it 1 breathe at a time, slow deep breathes until the projection takes over. Accept whatever feelings/sensations that you feel

Don't get caught up on the means to the end. Don't get too excited with becoming conscious. If you wake up, oh well, you still became lucid. It takes practice..enjoy it while it lasts and it will get better w time

Naps

Setting a solid goal I can keep focusing on should help tons. I noticed if I would smoke bud it may be easier to enter that state of complete calmness but to actually "push" myself into sleep paralysis and beyond was near impossible XD Thanks Praveen! Your responses are always useful

Sorry PeacePoiProsper, Allison Onisal, Sway. I just got carried away by Summerlanders useless arguments.

@Sway: Keep an intention before you try Astral projection, it will usually help you more. Try using some of the exit techniques provided earlier in the forum, it will help.

Here goes the Astral projection exit methods.

Let me know if you need any help.

But dude is real

Hello everyone, I have been having some troubles recently when trying to astral project (im quite new to meditation and projecting) where I start getting numb and tingly, finger tips get cold and the goose bump vibrations come in waves a little but then what happens, I can only describe it as if spirit swells a little bit around my physical body but then it settles right back into physical. I have tried focusing on the vibrations and it makes them last a little while (few seconds) and I have also tried ignoring them and when I do this they usually only come in a single wave and dissapear but I don't get the feeling of spirit "un-swelling" back into physical. Another problem I keep getting is once I feel myself drifting into the vibrational stage, my foot will twitch and it breaks the trance. Any tips on how to sustain...(continued)

Hello everyone! For awhile I had success getting into the astral. I have my own technique that works well or (worked well)

For the past couple months I have been undergoing a lot of internal and external change and I wonder if this has temporarily blocked my ability? By all means, I didn't perfect the technique but I was getting a good success rate until recently. Do you think this is a mental thing? Have I been too focused on the material world? Have any of you felt the same way?

Thanks everyone!

Can anyone please tell how I can contact my guardian angel once I astral project?Or even spirit guides.please do tell.

For some reason I need to label my experience and I am hoping someone here has heard of something like this. I do not leave my body. It feels more like I expand, like my spirit swells out but at the same time I have total control of my body. While I am in this state, I can SEE. I can communicate with non humans. At times it feels like this world (flesh) is just shadow and the spiritual realm is far more solid. When I do this around other people I can see their... parasites. Religion would call them djinn or demons. In truth, they are merely corruption. Twisted. Nameless. When I see them, they realize I am seeing them. At first they are surprised and many times they panic. There have been a few that did not panic and spoke to me through their host. They speak in half truths and I always come away with more...(continued)
