Hey all, this is actually the reason I joined the site. Hopefully you'll be able to help!
I've been trying to astral project ever since I seriously got into the craft. When my husband does it, I am able to follow him, but most of the time I'm not conscious of it. He describes me as a small little gryphon singing my own little Mission Impossible theme, and when he turns to me I pause the singing and sink down low (Think Emperor's New Groove). I remember little snippets of the journey, but I can not remember the whole thing.
I myself have Googled, read, and practiced again and again, but to no avail. I even have a ritual room in my home that is painted with glyphs that encourage astral travel, and even surrounded by this, I can't get it. I've asked my husband, but he's so practiced in it, he just shrugs and says "I just do it."
Some of the ways I've tried:
-At night, before I go to sleep
-As soon as I wake up
- In the middle of the afternoon
- The 'Rope' technique
- Multiple websites describing how to astral project
- Guided astral travels using CDs
- Hypnotic states induced by others
Each new technique I practice for about 3 weeks before I absolutely give up and throw my hands in the air. At this point I have a sneaking suspicion that I'm just overthinking it.
I think it might also be pertinent to let you all know that I've got ADHD that I do not treat with drugs, and I think this is also keeping me from success, as it's very very hard to just sit there and clear my mind. Always a little snippet of a song pops in, and I have to work to get it out of my head and return to the task at hand.
So, what are your techniques, tips and tricks?
