Hi I have very similar experiences of what you have described when i enter SP and feel my body gets heavy after the hallucination stage and the jolts as you describe is when my body feels like its beginning to detach and feels floaty.

you are making Great progress try staying longer in the hallucination stage and try to keep you mind between sleep/awake
after this your not far from entering into a dream state.

I can only tell you what and how i experience this stage, we are all different but what you describe is very similar to what i have experenced....have a good read in the tutorials and keep a dream journal as this will help you in the future

there is a fine balance between awake and asleep while in SP and i find that it comes in my experience with practice and mental discipline

Also try not to spin that may help you .....you may start having dream impressions where you start to have mini dreams for a few sconds in and out this dream state

well done and keep going you will get there!! all you can do is read about it and try different things
