Do each of you feel the sense of actively leaving your body every time you have an OBE? And do you always wake up in what looks like your room? Everyone? Every time?? Have you ever experienced it differently?
I often experience OBE's differently. Sometimes I appear in my own sleeping body and I leave it, having the feeling of leaving my body. Sometimes I appear in my room and I see my sleeping body in my bed, I do not have a feeling of leaving my body here, also in this scenario I can come back to my original body and If I lay my self down the same way my other body was sleeping - they will synchronize and next time I move, I wont be able to see the other body, if I will stand up I will not see my other body back in the bed too, no feelings of leaving the body here. Sometimes I appear in my sleeping body and I see my room around me, I stand up and there is no body behind me, no feelings of leaving the body, but I consider this as an OBE. Sometimes I appear in my sleeping body and I see my room around me but I do not move, I try to solve problems and answer the questions that I could not answer during waking life. And few other scenarios... All
During those OBE's most of the time I appear in my room, I see my room and my apartment. But sometimes when I focus on thinking and solving some problems during my OBE, I do not pay attention to detail around me and all I see and feel is my bed, everywhere around me there is blackness and little light somewhere.
I think all OBE's can follow the rules of one of my dream types, read more here - http://www.dreamviews.com/general-lu...eam-types.html
Those are only my dream types, some people might have different dream types. OBE's can be non-lucid too. Think of OBE's a lucid dreaming, learn lucid dreaming and when you will have good control you can perform OBE's easily.
You don't necessarily have to wake up in your room to have an obe. It's just a sure fire way of distinguishing a normal dream from something else. I'm of the opinion that one is closer to your physical reality then the other an (obe) usually provides a sense of duality. You can be what seems like thousands of miles away in some foreign dreamscape but still feel your body laying in bed. If you project from your room u can actually observe your sleeping body with sense of sight instead of touch.When u are lucid dreaming you understand where your sleeping body is but u don't feel it or see it. However if you think to much about your sleeping body u will wake up if u think about it with the intent to seperate then you will wake up to vibrations and observe a exact copy of your room just from a dream like perspective. Next time you project try to knock something over when you wake up what you knocked over will still be standing. Don't be fooled when u obe from your room its a totally different time and place. Trips me out every time I think about it. ;-)
