Hello

I'm pretty new to Magick, and I have a few questions about trances in meditation. I've done a bit of reading on Magick and have actually decided to stop for a while and start practicing, as I wasn't doing so before. But, I've found remarkably little information about how to get into a trance through meditation. I'm introverted, so meditation is my preferred modus operandi, and also I haven't gotten any results from the classic sigil visualization at orgasm technique.

In Franz Bardon's Initiation into Hermetics, he mentions that the practitioner can get into a trance by focusing his awareness into the center point of his body, aiming for an atomic point in space. In Alan Chapman's Advanced Magick for Beginners, I found a breathing exercise involving alternate nostril breathing. I have yet to try these two techniques, but I'm surprised that I haven't found more.

So, what techniques have you been using to achieve a trance in meditation? I would greatly appreciate your advice.
