“How To Have Your First 100 OBEs In 100 Days Even If You’re A Jetlagged Insomniac Right Now”

Part 2: “The Mental Geography Map”

1. The Biggest Critical Mistake To Avoid When Using Memory Impressions

2. Your 6 Memory Impression Spaces: How To Be Use Sure You’re Visualizing In The Most Effective Spot In Your Mind

3. 4 Step System: How To Tell Where The Real Imagery Comes From

Here in part 2 we’ll cover “The Mental Geography Map”. In this section you’ll find out how to avoid the biggest critical mistake people make when using memory impressions to induce O.B.E.s. To do that you’ll find out how to be sure you’re visualizing in the most effective spot in your mind by using your 6 memory impression spaces. And we’ll cover the 4 step system how to tell where the real imagery comes from when you use visualizations.

The location where you visualize something has a big impact on the results you get from the visualization. Most books tell you to visualize one thing or another without really telling you how or where to imagine it. So in this section we’re going to precisely define each of the 6 types of spaces to choose from and cover how to use each one for maximum effect.

The 6 spaces are…

1.) Wake-Induced Lucid Dreams or WILDs

2.) Body position

The second trick, using your body position is very simple. You just think back and recall what position you were laying in when you had the dream.

You then slowly roll back in to that position and you’ll find that suddenly your memories of that dream unlock and come in crystal clear. It’s like your body position is a key and your mind associates that position with the mental experiences you had in the dream.

This sounds like it’s just too easy, but use it and you’ll find that you’ll be able to remember dreams much more easily than ever before. It’s also a good reason to practice sleeping in the same position all night and not tossing and turning.

You can remember your dreams more easily if you also don’t have to remember what position your body was in at the time.

This is because it lowers your dominant brain wave from your usual alpha range (around 12 to 30 Hz) to a theta range (around 3 to 7 Hz). This puts you in a subconscious focus which is exactly what you need to have lots and lots of lucid dreams and OBEs.

So by getting good at inducing waking sleep paralysis you can avoid having to use visualizations at all which speeds up your learning curve. However, that’s not to say that visualizations aren’t useful, they really are incredibly useful.

In fact, it’s also possible to have lucid dreams and OBEs even when your body is fully awake! This is the focus of Lucidology 102 in which I will show you the exact tricks I use to have one or more OBEs every morning and average over 100 OBEs ever 100 days. The secret is to be able to slip out of your body at very light stages of sleep paralysis and thankfully there are very specific steps that anyone can take to do just that using the tricks in Lucidology 102.

For instance, sleep paralysis paralyzes your arms and legs but not your heart. Your breathing is semi-involuntary and that’s the trick we can use to escape sleep paralysis every time.

The only way your body knows if you’re asleep is if you act like you’re awake. So to send a signal to your body that your mind is really awake, simply change your breathing pattern to something other than the normal sleep breathing pattern you’re already in.

By the way, you can use sleep breathing as a sleep command to trick your body into falling asleep and enter waking sleep paralysis.

When you change your breathing pattern, such as breathing much more deeply and longer, for about 15 seconds your body will notice the change and automatically exit sleep paralysis.

This is much easier than trying to move a digit or limb which most books recommend. Moving a digit or limb isn’t very effective especially in 100% sleep paralysis where your voluntary muscle system is inaccessible.

In the next post we’ll cover why sleep paralysis is ideal for lucid dreaming and OBEs

The reason for this is it’s absolutely an unmistakable feeling when you enter it, unlike most other things in lucid dreams which are fleeting and ephemeral.

So what is sleep paralysis?

Sleep paralysis is a protection mechanism your body uses when you fall asleep. It allows you to dream that you’re doing what ever you want, no matter how chaotic or active, and you won’t accidentally move your arms and legs and awake yourself up.

The way it works is it temporarily disconnects your voluntary muscle system from your mind. When this happens it feels like a heavy lead blanket is being laid on your chest and limbs.

This heavy lead blanket feeling in sleep paralysis is because you have to send a much stronger nerve signal than normal in order to get the same muscle movement. When you reach 100% sleep paralysis you can’t move anything at all, with a few small exceptions, which we’ll go over in the next post on how to break sleep paralysis.

After we cover how to break sleep paralysis, I’ll show you why sleep paralysis is the best way to have OBEs without using visualizations.

Then we’ll go over ways to convert sleep paralysis into an OBE or lucid dream

Hypnotic Fractionation

Hypnotic fractionation means that when you enter trance, leave trance and the enter into it again, then the second time you enter trance you enter it more deeply than before.

That means that if you can enter even the slightest trance then you can enter a very deep trance just by going in and out of that trance over and over.

To do this, use a timer that beeps every few minutes. You simply fall asleep for a few minutes, let the timer beep to wake you up and then you fall asleep again. This works best when you don’t try to stay aware for the OBE. Just fall asleep and let the timer do all the work to make you become aware.

The Awake/Asleep Threshold

When you do that 4 or 5 times in an hour without moving your body in any way or opening your eyes or even moving your eyes, two things happen:

1.) Your body becomes confused about what’s going on and decides to put itself to sleep even though your mind is still awake

2.) Your mind enters a theta brain wave which puts you in a subconscious focus. A theta brain wave is just a slower version around 3-7 hz of your usual waking brain wave which is around 10-14 hz.

Waking Sleep Paralysis

These two effects together give you ‘waking sleep paralysis’. Sleep paralysis is a protection mechanism your body uses when your fall asleep. If you were to dream you were doing something very active such as running and you weren’t in sleep paralysis you would make the motion of running and wake yourself up.

To avoid that your body disconnects your voluntary muscle system from your mind and this creates sleep paralysis. Usually you’re not aware of that because your mind is asleep. But when you keep your mind awake during this process you get “waking sleep paralysis.”

In light paralysis it feels like you have a heavy lead blanket laid on you. In full paralysis you simply can’t move at all. It feels like it’s harder to breathe in sleep paralysis because you have to send a stronger nerve signal to your muscles to get the same movement. However it’s very safe since it’s something the body does every night.

How To Break Sleep Paralysis Every Time

You can easily break sleep paralysis using deep breathing. When you deep breathe for about 10 or 15 seconds your body notices the change from your usual sleep breathing and brings you out of sleep paralysis. This is a much more reliable method of breaking paralysis than trying to move your arms because your breathing is only semi-involuntary so it isn’t fully paralyzed.

Waking sleep paralysis is a fantastic jumping point to have OBEs and lucid dreams because it’s so stable. OBEs can be hard because everything is so subtle and fleeting. However once you’re in sleep paralysis you can just hang out there and feel what it’s like. In almost all of my OBEs I enter waking sleep paralysis. (Although it’s also possible to do OBEs when the body is fully awake which is something we cover in Lucidology 102)

Exit Methods

There are many ways to convert sleep paralysis into an OBE. These are called ‘exit methods’. In Lucidology 101 we’ll cover visualization-free exit techniques which are simple to learn but require very deep sleep paralysis to work.

In Lucidology 102 we’ll cover visualization-powered exit techniques which require little to no sleep paralysis and really shave off a lot of time from your inductions. If you’re serious about OBEs, check out Lucidology 102

Here is very simple exit method by a forum poster named tsunaH which works surprisingly well. Once you’re in 100% stone cold sleep paralysis you’ll find that you can control:
1.) Your breathing
2.) Your eyes
3.) Your face

When you reach 100% sleep paralysis your breathing is physical but your eyes and face have shifted into nonphysical focus.

What you do is shift your focus in to your face which draws you in to nonphysical focus completely. To do that, simply open your mouth and continue breathing in the slow sleep-breathing rhythm your body will already be in.

This will initiate the separation process and you’ll probably begin to hear rushing noises and vibrations which are both effects we’ll talk about more in Lucidology 101. Once things have quieted down again you’ll be in an OBE and can just get up out of your body in the nonphysical version of your bedroom.

Movement-Free Reality Checks

How will you know you’re nonphysical rather than physical? You’ll use “reality checks” to tell what’s going on. In particular we’ll cover movement-free reality checks so that you can tell if you’re nonphysical without having to move and wreck your trance.

Most reality checks you find in books require you to get up and move around. If you’re just laying there and you’re not sure what’s going on and you move to do your check and it fails… then you just ruined your trance and have to start all over. So in Lucidology 101 I’ll show you how to do reality checks without that risk.

Tricking Your Body Into Falling Asleep Using Sleep Commands

To do this method you need to be able to fall asleep quickly. In Lucidology 101 we’ll cover sleep commands that you can use to make your body ask for permission to fall asleep. You then use a sleep trigger to tell it “yes” it’s time to fall asleep. This is how you trick your body into falling asleep while keeping your mind awake

When you combine the timer method with sleep commands you’ll be able to trick your body info falling asleep while you keep your mind awake. The way it works is you wake up and fall asleep a couple times. Then on one of the beeps your mind and body wake up. Your body waits to see if your mind tells it to move.

If you don’t tell your body to move then after about 10 seconds the body assumes the mind really is asleep and shuts itself down. You feel a wave of sleep paralysis come over you that feels like a heavy lead blanket. You’ve just tricked your body into falling asleep while keeping your mind awake.

The 8 Steps

1.) Awake
2.) Sleep Commands
3.) Asleep
4.) Beep

Steps 1-4 loop until you’re hovering on the awake/asleep threshold

5.) Waking Sleep Paralysis
6.) Movement-Free Reality Check

8.) OBE/Lucid Dream

Now You’re Dangerous

With the information we’ve covered so far, you know more about OBE induction than 99% of the rest of the planet. However doing a complete OBE separation does come down to getting the details right. For the details on how to do this, download the OBE Quickstart to get all the free tools you need to have your first OBE tonight!

The main advantage of a wake induced lucid dream over a lucid dream in which you first fall asleep is that you have no problems with dream memory loss.

For example if you get up in the morning and think back to the dreams you had you may find that some of them were actually lucid dreams because you had full awareness of your normal waking personality and you knew you were dreaming.

However, by the time you woke up again you’d lost a lot of the memories of what you did.

With a wake induced lucid dream it’s as easy to remember what you did as it is to remember the last 15 minutes or so of waking awareness. This is because you slip in out out of the WILD with no unconscious phase.

So how do you have waking induced lucid dreams?

The simplest way is the lucid dream timer method. The basic idea is you fall totally asleep and let the timer beep to wake you up.

This brings you back to waking awareness which prevents memory loss. You then relax without moving at all in any way back into waking sleep paralysis and then you use an OBE exit method to turn sleep paralysis into an OBE.

So by using the timer to create a focus in waking awareness before slipping into waking sleep paralysis you can have a wake induced lucid dream without any memory loss. When you combine this with the specialized lucid dream visualizations in Lucidology 102 you can have boat loads of OBEs one right after another! In fact I’ve literally had sessions in which I did about 20 OBEs back to back using the Lucidology 102 tricks.

So even though wake induced lucid dreams may sound advanced, they’re actually a very attainable goal when you know the right tricks. Check out the Lucidology 101 video on the timer method for the specific timer setup to use to have lots and lots of WILDs.

Two Transitions To Success, Not Just One!

Recall our two-step strategy for visualization-free O.B.E.s. The first step was to use sleep commands to trick your body into falling asleep. That stage put you in waking sleep paralysis so that your brain enters a theta brain wave and automatically sends you into a subconscious focus without you needing to use visualizations.

The second step is to convert sleep paralysis into an O.B.E using an exit technique.

Exit Techniques: We’re Up To Step 4 – “Separation”

In this section we’ll cover this final stage of an O.B.E induction which is the exit stage where you separate your nonphysical body from your physical body.

The 3 Basic Problems In Completing The Exit

In completing the exit there are 3 basic problems we need to solve:

1. First, that you can’t tell physical body from nonphysical body because they’re overlaid
2. Second, that you can’t separate them because they’re stuck together
3. Third, if you move and you’re not ready to exit, you’ll tense up and ruin your trance

That last problem is a major obstacle. There’s nothing worse than getting into a decent trance then ruining it because you moved physically instead of separating from your body.

So we need “movement free” exit techniques so you can make a bid for an exit and if you’re wrong and you’re not quite deep enough, it’s no big deal.

5 Solutions To The 3 Problems: Movement-free Exit Techniques

So here are the 5 most powerful movement-free exit methods that I’ve tested many times and have found to be highly effective. These are:

1. Open Mouth Exit
2. Gravity Press Exit
3. Safety Cap Exit
4. Focused Awareness With Magnetic Spheres
5. Salvaging Partial Exits Using Limb Creation

Cracking The Safe: The “Open Mouth” Exit Initiator

The first method is the ‘open mouth exit’ and it was discovered by a forum poster named tsunaH. In sleep paralysis 99% of the time even if everything below your neck is paralyzed you can still move your eyes and mouth.

To do this method simply open your mouth and take a few slow deep breaths. Be sure not to breathe too hard or you’ll break the paralysis. By doing this you’ll feel yourself start to separate starting at your head.

This method is a very reliable way to get the exit process kick started. It’s actually more of an ‘exit initiator’ than a full exit method because a lot of times it will get you half way out and then you need to switch to another exit method to complete the separation. However a lot of times once you start the separation using open mouth breathing, you’ll be able to separate completely and get up into your nonphysical bedroom without using any other tricks!

The reason this method works is you’ve split your focus between physical awareness and nonphysical awareness. In sleep paralysis your body below the neck is still physically focused but your eyes and face have entered nonphysical focus. By creating movement in your eyes and face you draw the rest of your focus in to nonphysical awareness.

The “Gravity Press” Exit

The second movement free exit method is the “gravity press” exit. To do this, focus on the feeling of gravity pulling on your body.

In an O.B.E. this will actually cause you to sink through solid objects and you can use this fact to test if you’re nonphysical without moving.

Gravity Press Tips

Make sure not to pull yourself down too far because creating too much of a feeling of heaviness can make the resulting O.B.E more dark and lower energy.

If you lay on your back while looking at the ceiling, you can do a ‘transparent bed’ reality check:

To do that look at the ceiling and gravity press yourself to the floor.
As long as you keep your sight focused on the ceiling you’ll see through your bed
This can help you be more sure that you really did a gravity press and you really are nonphysical

The “Safety Cap” Exit: Gravity-press With A Twist

You can build on the gravity press exit to make it more powerful. This brings us to the third movement-free exit method called ‘safety-cap’. With a safety cap bottle, to open the lid you have to press down and then twist.

What Does That Have To Do With O.B.E. Exits?

The problem with the gravity press method is even if you sink into the bed a few inches you may not be completely sure that you’ve really separated. What you need is a better “selector” to be sure there’s absolutely no question in your mind that you’re nonphysical. To fix this, create the feeling of a force that rotates you around on your belly button so that your head swings around 180 degrees and ends up where your feet are.

Gravity Press + Twist = Safety Cap O.B.E

At that point there is no doubt you’re in an O.B.E and you can get up without fear of accidentally moving your physical muscles and botching the trance. In other words, you just press down and twist and you have an O.B.E.

Major Mistake: The Roll Over Exit

Most books on O.B.E.s tell you to roll over on your side to complete the exit. This is a really bad idea because it’s an all or nothing gamble. Either you succeed and you roll over in to an O.B.E or you move physically and have to start all over again.

On the other hand, because the safety cap exit is also a type of reality check you can first test to see if you’re actually nonphysical. If either the press or the twist stages don’t work, then you know to relax a little deeper and your trance is still in tact.

Your success rate will be many times higher when you use safety cap than if you simply try rolling over.

Magnetic Spheres

Our forth movement free exit method is called “Magnetic Spheres”

I know this is supposed to be ‘visualization-free’ O.B.E. methods… but this one is really easy and it will really help with your exits. So I’m going to sneak it in.

By practicing to focus your awareness while awake, you can better direct your nonphysical body when in an O.B.E.

Imagine a magnetic sphere hovering above your hands. Move the sphere around and feel it pull on your nonphysical body in different directions

You’ll start to get a feeling of a fuzzy ball of awareness around your hands

Magnetic Spheres Multiplication

Double the strength of the sphere to get a stronger feeling. After a few moments double it again. Then double it once more after a bit. Keep doubling it every minute or so until you have a very strong feeling of attraction around your hands.

Remember this is the feeling for when you use gravity press and safety cap. When you want to press out or rotate around, create the feeling of the force you want and complete the exit.

Using Focused Awareness To Pull Yourself Up

Remember with gravity press, one of the disadvantages was that if you press down too far it can make the resulting O.B.E darker and lower energy. One way around that is to use focused awareness to imagine gravity is pulling you up. This is slightly more difficult to do but it actually helps make the O.B.E brighter.

To do this, first put your awareness on the feeling of gravity like normal. Then rotate that feeling around so it’s pulling you up and you’ve created inverse gravity.

Magnetic Sphere Pulls You Up

Another variation is to simply use an imaginary magnetic sphere to overpower gravity and pull you up. Both of these methods work well. I actually am lazy and usually just do gravity press and twist, but you should definitely experiment with creating strange forces and odd angles because they’re very useful for manipulating the world once you’ve transitioned to an O.B.E.

Focused Awareness Resources

Focused awareness is used in many disciplines including qi-gong, tai chi, reiki, and others. It’s also the basis for Robert Bruce’s system called N.E.W. (or New Energy Ways) which is used in O.B.E.s. Check out his book “Astral Dynamics” for more on NEW.

How To Salvage Partial Exits: Limb Creation

A lot of times you’ll make it half-way out of your body but parts will still be stuck. For instance, you might find that you can free your arms but your legs are still glued in place and that even if you use your nonphysical hands to pull your legs out they just won’t budge. This brings us to the fifth movement-free exit technique called “Limb Creation”.

Once you have about half of your body out, instead of trying to get the rest of your limbs out, just imagine a completely new set of legs or arms or whatever is stuck. This is actually much easier than it sounds. You just imagine what it would feel like if your legs were already beneath you and you were already standing on them. Imagine the feeling of pressure on your feet, how your socks feel, and what your toes feel like when you wiggle them against each other.

You’ll quickly lose awareness of the limbs in your physical body and refocus into the copies of your legs that you’ve created. This process actually only takes a couple seconds and is a billion times easier than trying to yank your limbs out of your physical body.

The exit is the last stage of an O.B.E induction, but you probably still have some questions. In the next section we’ll go over the troubleshooting guide. This is the 3 Step System How To You Can Quickly Blow Up Your O.B.E Roadblocks.

The Top 3 Signals To Tell How Close You Are To An OBE

If you’ve never done an O.B.E before, it’s extremely difficult to know if you’re making any progress until you’re actually already out of your body or in a lucid dream. What you need are easy to detect signals that you can use like road signs to tell you how close you are to succeeding. In this section we’ll cover the top 3 most common road signs. These are:

1 – The sleep paralysis wave
2 – Pre O.B.E rushing noises
3 – Vibrations

Sleep Paralysis Wave: Your Primary Signal

We already covered the sleep paralysis wave in Lucidology 101 part 2. Essentially when your body shuts itself down in sleep paralysis you’ll feel something like a heavy lead blanket feeling being laid on your body. This feeling is unmistakable and a sign that you’re very close to success and you can use the exit techniques we’ll cover in part 12 to turn the paralysis into an O.B.E.

Pre-O.B.E. Rushing Noises: The Second Most Frequent Signal

The second road sign to watch for are pre-O.B.E rushing noises. When you tune in between stations on a radio you get the sound of random static and
white noise. Once you’re back on a station again things come in clearly. It’s the same thing with O.B.E.s. You start out completely focused in your normal waking environment and as you drop into a subconscious focus you pass through a kind of no man’s land where you’re not really conscious and you’re not really subconscious.

Rushing Noises Can Sound Like A Tornado Or Freight Train

When you’re tuned to that no-man’s land frequency you hear rushing noises that sound like random static or a train rushing by.

Vibrations: The Most Famous Progress Signal

About the same time you hear rushing noises you may feel what are called O.B.E vibrations. Vibrations are probably the most famous phenomenon associated with O.B.E.s and they’re also the effect that has the most misconceptions. Almost everything to be found in books on O.B.E.s about vibrations is simply wrong and so this is a place where a lot of people get stuck. They reach the vibration stage and then get hung up because they use an ineffective method from bad advice they read in a book.

The 3 Critical Vibrations Misconceptions

The 3 misconceptions about vibrations are:

1.) What they are

2.) What they mean

3.) How to use them.

What Vibrations Are Not

Here’s what vibrations are not. Vibrations are not a subjective kind of thing where you it’s like you’re “feeling the vibes, man, far out!”. Vibrations are much more mundane than that.

What Are Vibrations Like?

If you make a VVVVV sound, the feeling of vibrations in your lips is very similar to the feeling of vibrations that often appear along with medium stages of paralysis. Sometimes the vibrations can been extremely strong and feel like electricity, other times they are entirely absent. It’s very rare for vibrations to be strong enough to be painful, usually they just feel like a harmless buzzing in your head and chest area.

Types Of O.B.E Vibrations

However sometimes they can go throughout your entire body. These can be incredibly loud and feel like you’re holding on to a chain saw. A lot of people report feeling them in the spine. In one case I woke up into an O.B.E in my bed and it sounded exactly like there was someone with a hedge trimmer outside my window. I realized it was because I had off the chart vibrations that were coming from what I later found to be the L1 lumbar vertebrae in my lower back. I used deep breathing to return myself from the O.B.E because I was running more energy than what seemed safe.

Most O.B.E Vibrations Are Harmless

That was a very unusual experience and most of the time you actually won’t have any vibrations at all and if you do it’s no more powerful than the feeling of a vibrating cell phone.

The basic thing to know is that once you’ve had vibrations, you will know it. There won’t be any question in your mind about it because it’s just a buzzing feeling and noise.

Misconception #2: What O.B.E Vibrations Mean

The second misconception is that most books will tell you that when you have vibrations you’re ready to exit into the O.B.E. This is completely the polar opposite of reality. Vibrations mean that you are NOT ready to exit and here’s why.

Double Energy From Two Signals

Physical and nonphysical awarenesses are both types of signals that you focus on. During the middle stage of an O.B.E exit you’re making the transition from one to the other and you experience both physical and nonphysical signals. These signals have energy. When you sum both of these signals together you pass through a phase where you’re running double the amount of energy you normally would.

Double Energy Can Result In Intermodulation Distortion

If this energy is more than your system can comfortably handle, you get distortion. The big fancy signal processing name for this is intermodulation distortion. The name is not so important as the fact that this energy hump does not go on forever, it comes and then goes and this is critical to understanding how to deal with vibrations.

Vibrations Mean You’re Not Ready To Exit: Wait For “The Quiet Zone”

Because the excess energy hump comes and goes, you get a ‘quiet zone’ once you’ve focused completely out of physical focus and in to nonphysical focus. So it looks like this: you start out in physical focus with no vibes. You relax into a near O.B.E and get light vibes. You relax almost to the point of separation and get majorly heavy vibes. This is where most people screw it up because of the bad advice in books. The trick is to simply continue to relax deeper and deeper past the vibrations until the vibes have smoothed out completely. Once you’re in the quiet zone after the vibes, that’s how you know you’ve completely shifted into the O.B.E.

Unbalanced Tires Analogy

The energy hump is like a truck I used to have with unbalanced tires. When it got up to 45 MPH it would start vibrating the entire truck. At 55 MPH it would smooth out again. The range of 45 to 55 MPH was a transition range that caused the tires to vibrate with each other. Pre O.B.E. rushing noises and vibrations are the same thing: you’re coming in and out of phase with two different physical and nonphysical signals.

What About Vibrationless O.B.E.s?

Keep in mind that the vibrations only happen when the total energy goes beyond what your nonphysical body is capable of conducting. The more O.B.E.s you do, the more energy you can run without problems and the less vibrations you’ll have. Eventually almost all your O.B.E.s will be vibration-free.

Vibrationless O.B.E.s

You’ll go from waking awareness, with no vibes, all the way to the O.B.E with no vibes which means you’ll have to rely on other signals that we’ll cover later to tell if you’re in the O.B.E. The up side to this is that vibrationless O.B.E.s are much brighter and clearer than O.B.E.s where you have to punch through massive vibrations.

Why Vibrationless O.B.E.s Are Brighter And Clearer

Why would that be? In a chainsaw, the noise is caused by friction. Vibrations are a form of noise, so vibrations are a form of friction. Friction is waste of energy. Chainsaw noise is a waste of physical energy and so vibrations are a waste of nonphysical energy.

When you’re in vibrations you’re wasting energy so it’s a state you want to relax through as quickly as possible.

Misconception #3: What To Do With Vibrations

The next misconception is what to do once you’re in vibrations. For instance, Robert Monroe wrote that you should try to ‘sweep’ the vibrations up and down your body before separating. Is this good advice or not?

Relaxation Is The Only Solution

The only way to reduce vibrations is to reduce the pressure that causes friction and that means relaxing.

If you reach vibrations and then try to do something, whether it’s running the vibrations up and down your body or anything else, then the one thing you’re NOT doing is relaxing. And relaxing is exactly the one thing that you need to do when you have vibrations because only way to release the friction is to relax. No other solution will work.

This is why vibrations are a major obstacle for more OBEers, because when they try to do something, anything, they are unable to simply relax into the quiet zone.

Definitely do NOT try to force your way out when you’re in the middle of vibrations. You’ll almost certainly just get pulled right back into your body since you haven’t yet matched up with a nonphysical focus.

The “How Close To An O.B.E? Meter”: Relax Through Vibrations

Even if you do manage to muscle your way out, you’ll have spent so much energy on the exit that the resulting O.B.E will probably be so dark and low energy that you’ll just stagger around and not be able to do anything fun anyway. It’s far better to relax through vibrations into the quiet zone and then slip out of body effortlessly.

The Sneaky Loop Hole: Photographic Trance

By the way, there is a sneaky loop hole that allows you to cheat so you can do O.B.E.s even when you’re in the middle of vibrations. We’ll cover this sneaky cheat in Lucidology 102 part 3. The trick is to enter something called a photographic trance which allow you to have O.B.E.s at much lighter levels of trance so you don’t have to be in full sleep paralysis to separate.

Exiting Even In The Middle Of Vibrations

This loophole also opens the door to a technique called ‘trance recycling’ . Trance recycling allows you to have a dozen or more O.B.E.s in a row and quickly rack up a massive number of O.B.E.s in a single session. To find out more about Lucidology 102, visit www.Lucidology.com

Because many O.B.E.s are completely vibrationless, you need several other road signs to tell how close you are to success. In the next section we’ll cover the 5 crucial progress signals to tell how close you are to an O.B.E.
