Controlling out of body experience?

Question

They used to happen a lot, and they were scary. They went away when I started practicing yoga. But this morning it started to happen again. I'm interested in letting it happen, but at the same time I'm really afraid of loosing control, or that something bad may happen. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions?

Answer 1

What sort of out-of-body experiences are you having? There are different types. I have some when I go to school, especially when I'm very tired. It's as if I'm sleeping and my body is just going through muscle memory to get where I need to be. I see myself walking through places from other people's points of view or from above, as if my eyes are a camera. It's strange. I don't think you can "lose control" as long as you're not operating heavy machinery or driving. If you are, then try to drink caffeine to wake you up. Like I said, it's difficult to determine what you should do without the type of experiences.

My mother reads Sylvia Brown...according to her, out of body experiences are normal...it's just your spirit going in and out of your physical being. I've had/have them and so has everyone in my family...I was told there's nothing to be afraid of. There's not a single living being that has not experienced that. She told me you have to just ask for an easy exit and an easy entry. If something about it doesn't feel right, it's supposedly your own thoughts/brain exposed to society/the  world we live in physically. It's our own fears that make it seem like something is wrong.

If its going to happen, let it happen, just go with it....

Learning to controlling it is the hard part....but nothing will happen, and as soon as you get scared, it will get forced back into your body....start from there...I find it the most beautiful experience ever...Though i do have a problem with an entity that has attacked me for many years, but he,ll pull me out astrally and get me there..but i can always fight strong enough to get myself back in....but that doesnt happen with everyone.......its truelly a beautiful experience....you are free of your heavy body, and can mingle with other spirits.......

When you become frightened of anything or how far you have gone, just think of your body, and youll find your self back in there, safely at home.....your soul still communicates with your body......

Without proper education this can be extremely dangerous. If not done correctly you can leave your body open for other entities to enter. In my personal oppinion this should only be attempted by those that have properly studied the subject.

I've had this happen lately. The strange thing is I was actually trying to after reading a book about it. I got nervous and stopped trying. Since then it happens without trying but I always wake myself back up. It does feel like I'm losing control of my physical body. Takes me a few seconds to open my eyes then be able to move. I've heard it should be fine, but there's still a part of me that's afraid to let go.
