Today I am going to tell you about my first real astral projection attempt, which was actually just a minute ago.
I was lying on my bed. I closed my eyes and took deep breaths for a few minutes (Should it have been longer?). Then I got a really light tingling sensation in my foot, like gentle energy flowing through it, but it wasn't very strong. Then a twinge of it in my finger, like a spark. So I imagined a huge rope coming out of my stomach and up into infinity, then I imagined climbing it (Any tips on other ways to get out of your physical body?). I felt lighter, but didn't feel my astral limbs floating up. In fact, my head was the main thing that felt light, which I find weird because most people say your head is usually the last astral part of your body to disconnect from your physical body. That's what I've heard, anyway.
Anyway, I continued to climb the rope, but still nothing. I gave up and opened my eyes, a bit disappointed. Should I have waited longer before I tried to climb the rope? Should I have meditated and relaxed more?
Does anyone know how I can improve? I know I have to practice more, probably for a while, but any tips would be awesome. I did also have my dog in the room, but the only noise she was making was breathing. And maybe her leg was touching me. Should I make sure she isn't in my room when I'm trying to astral project?
Any help is appreciated, please put it in the comments! Thank you for your time, I hope you liked my story!
