First OBE Breakthrough?

**cyaelO** · 03-24-2013 11:17 AM

so i recently have been working on leaving my body. i do this or attempt this while falling asleep either at the beginning of the night or during my WILD attempts. a few times i've heard wringing or a weird buzzing sound just in my right ear. it always startled me until this morning when i woke up.

this is my journal at 5:30 AM-

"i realized i was in a dream and tried to minipulate it but was already too far in my physical body. FIRST OBE RESPONCE- i focused my energy and the wringing in both ears would start. i'm not awake and not asleep yet 100% consciously doing this. the wringing would start and the more i focused on it the louder it because.then the voices would start to come in. it sounded exactly like tuning into a radio station. started with a males voice that would sound like a radio from maybe the 60's-70's. by my third attempt at doing this i'm tuning in for longer but still startled at whats happening and what exactly i was feeling/experiencing. this is when the tingling would start. i would feel it in my right hand.. from the back of my neck down my spine and throughout most of my body."

this is what i wrote as soon as i woke up i was so startled and exited.

For you to have OBE, you don't have to be in REM. But attempting OBEs is still rcommended after some sleep, because you do need you body to be very relaxed and when you wake up from sleep, your body is relaxed.

But then, I have read a book about guy who exited every night as soon as he fell asleep. Once I did have experience before sleep, I was just doing some breathing excercise. My body separated and was laying across my real body and kept turning, plus some other things. But back then I had no idea what to do with it.

I usually don't get audio hallucinations, but they can happen when you in altered state.

If you interested in OBEs, I really liked books by Adventures beyond body by Buhlman and Journeys out of the body by Monroe.

Yea it seems to be a lot easier for my body and my mind to relax enough to just "surrender" after waking from rem sleep.

I actually heard of Buhlmans work for the first time on these forums and finished his book The Secret of the Soul about a week ago. I'll be sure to check into his other one as well. Thanks for your input =]

sounds like progress to me! hopefully you can stay calm next time and let it happen.

I do have "Secret of the soul" and I like it. But the one I mentioned is different. It's about how he started to have OBEs and detailed accounts of his exits and everything around it. Very interesting and gave me huge motivation.
