* Was this a Lucid Dream? Or an OBE? *

My Experience:

I was woken up by my mother waking up my little brother for school, I lay my head down and go back to sleep. I wake up again, and I look at my phone for the time, it's 10:00 A.M (yea I sleep in) I am still extreamly tired. I believe it's due to the GABA, and I try to enter Sleep Paralysis because if my body's tired then it should be easier to enter.

I lay down, close my eyes...almost instantly I feel the vibrations of SP. I was a little nervous because I never fully went into SP and I hate the feeling of no control over my body. But boy was it amazing! The vibrations stopped. With my eyes closed, I got 2 fingers and plugged my nose and did the breathing through nose with your fingers in them reality check. I could breathe!

It was very weird breathing when you have 2 fingers plugged in your nose! Anyway, with my eyes still closed, I slowly tried to get up. It was very hard for some reason, I felt I was extreamly heavy and I had to use most of my strength to lift myself from my bed. I finally got myself to sit up, I open my eyes..

I am in my room, except some things are missing. Everything is blurry, I try to rub my hands together to clear it up, doesn't work. I am about to say "Clairity Now!" but I couldn't speak..

Next thing that happens is, it feels like something really heavy came upon me. I slowly fell down to my left side of the bed..I had no control whatsoever. I felt myself going back to my real body, and it was just a weird transitioning...


Even though it was very short, it was amazing at how real it was. Exactly like real life.

You managed to WILD, congrats :) A lot of people have that getting-out-of-bed in a lucid dream issue for some reason. Kudos for not panicking during SP, I always get too excited and wake myself up, and if it's scary it must be so much worse :shock:

Awesome! But why do you think it was hard getting myself up? I heard that hapens when your having on OBE? I tried this again last night...no luck =/

But I am going to keep trying, it was crazy! That's one of the few dreams that have felt, and looked exactly like real life.

Yea, dreams like that, that take place when you think you've woken up or WILD and are in your room are SOOOOO clear!

My only thoughts on it being difficult to get out of bed are maybe the idea of that link, that "I am currently in my bed" that may be anchoring you there. Just the belief that you are and should be in your bed, maybe it holds you back?

I'm not a huge believer in that sort of OBE. I think they are essentially just lucid dreams, just like the one you described. It's not that hard to just float about without a body in a lucid dream, once you've managed to get into it in the first place :tongue:

Makes sense. Any tips on staying in a dream?

well, i am skeptic when it comes to obes, but it sounds like you had a wild. remember, its all in your mind >.< eventually, you will be able to do that and wake up to dreamland, with no heaviness and blurriness. my suggestions are to rub your hands together, don't think about waking up, and touch the roof of your mouth with your tongue. also think, "clarity on", don't say it. you should get the same results as if you actually had said it

guitarboy, when you first started out was your experience simlar to mine? Bluriness, heaviness, etc.?

i dont quite remember my first times, they were a long time ago. it helps me alot by thinking about doing things, instead of trying to do them. i edited my recent post with some tips. but it takes patience, and comes with time. you will get it and one day be teaching someone else :)

ahh! haha i always fall out of my bed near the end of my SP experiences.. its so annoying. because altho ive done it 10's of times i always still believe it is real :D

id say that was a mild lucid dream aided by the state of sleep paralysis.


if you want to experience the most intense OBE experience... Astral Projection :D
you have to absolutely and most confidently let go of your body whilst in sp... and you will not regret it. Ive left planet earth flying at the speed of sound and then chilled up in space as... as.. ME. no body just me in space being there and feeling my energy surge in every direcition possible and being pulled by gravity in every direction possible :):)

try it... just let go, dont even think about beds... bodys... real or unreal. just let go while in sp and enjoy :)

Thank you I'll try that. seems fun, any pleasurable experiences? =D

yeh sure

read my post from a while back... the morning after my OBE
i wrote this even before i knew wat astral projection was
