Actually, after a minute I guess I blacked out back to sleep because I couldn't even remember what happened after itThere was a period of a couple of months where I had this happen to me about 5 times.
Yowyan, were you like me and able to force your self out of it?
Dude, so the other night I woke up with sleep Paralysis. And was like "WOOH!" So I tried concentrating and trying to focus outside of my body while maintaining this feeling. I lost the feeling of sleep paralysis, but I was mentally able to put myself back into that state several times while trying to achieve an OBE because of how physically exhausted I was. I never achieved OBE but I think I was close on several attempts. I ended up experiences sleep paralysis like 10 times that nightIm jealous. Seems you had an epic experienceI am going to practice meditation again in the hope i also achieve an OBEE/astral projection
I've never achieved lucid dreamingThis has happened to me before. I knew it was sleep paralysis because I had fallen asleep with my headphones in my ears. I could partially open my eyes, and could make out the blur of my curtains, as well as hear the music that was playing. It's like someone has put weights on your body to hold you down, and I'm pretty sure that my eyes started flickering, I saw an image of a female scream, then I was completely fine. I got it regularly when I was 16, but it hasn't happened in a while.
Also, lucid dreaming is completely different, is it not? I thought it was when you teach yourself to know when you are dreaming, so you can control every aspect of it - make yourself fly, give yourself super powers etc. I have done this before, too, after training myself for about a week. It's the best thing ever, but it's also common for people who practice lucid dreaming to experience sleep paralysis too, so maybe that's why I experienced it often.
Im sorry, I can't tell you how it feels ;p since i never had a astral projection/OBEE myself. It seems so awesomeWow...after all thse posts I red...Look's really scary!
I'm focusing on this ''Astral Protection''. When I saw that video YowYan posted, it was fantastic if you can control it!
Cause everytime I sleep I can get out of body, and with my soul (myselfe) I can experience the ability to fly, play, create, etc.
But...the only thing is that, ''Can it get scary for the first time?''. I want to be sure, cause If I will be able to do something like this, I don't want to experience, nightmares, scary faces, ghosts.
Can't wait to go to sleep and try dizz' sh.t out!! (jk)
floating, hm? Focus on that partI have sleep paralysis all the time. last time i had one felt the presence of a guy in my room staring at me, waiting for the perfect moment to strangle me or something.
but sometimes i feel like i'm floating, it creeps the hell out of me.
