Your First OBE Experience, Share first experience here Options

I've attempted OBE without much success twice using Rope techniques from Robert Bruce's Astral Dynamics (well, I am not even half finished reading it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) ) However, when I did tried it - I felt the spinning vertigo on the solar plexus he talks about when my etheric body "moves" - trying to break free - but that's how far it would go - when the vertigo started to hit, I think I freak out a bit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol_2.gif) thus putting an unconcious self restraint on my progress to exit - damn! I need to learn to let go (IMG:style_emoticons/default/fie.gif)

Have you attempt an OBE? How did you do it? what did you do when you OBE/AP and how's that made you feel?

I've never intentionally attempted one, but I guess what happens to me on a semi regular basis counts. I am always lying down, I am usually meditating when I have this queer sensation that my eyes are open while I can still feel them to be shut. I can see the entire room and all the objects in it in perfect detail "through" my eyelids. I will get up, move around, sometimes even do things(like turn on the television). For some reason I never, ever think to look at the bed or couch I just left. When I say move I don't mean walk, it's a different sort of light feeling. If you've ever surfed you'd know it. That sensation of gliding. At some point I will return and open my eyes while I'm seeing everything anyway and whatever I did will be undone(the t.v. will still be off, I never actually made a sandwich). It's weird. I've also never strayed far from the immediate surroundings because things get a little creepy.
