Last night I made a huge discovery regarding my out of body experiences during sleep paralysis.
While lying on my back, I enter the paralyzed state and then usually attempt to roll left out of my body, from the bed as if I would in real life. I had quite a bit of difficulty doing this for years, until last nights discovery. Roll the other WAY! I chose to roll to the right and whala, (I still rolled out to the left however, it was strangely reversed).
I planted both of my magical feet on the wooden floor and then slowly traipsed forward toward the bathroom where my partner was brushing her teeth. I could hear my shallow breathing, and I was a little frightened my my own creepiness in that I was just standing there, staring at her about an inch away from her face. I then snapped back and woke up. Buzzing with colors on the ceiling, then deep warmth and bliss buzzing in my brain.
There is so much to explore! Another note to remember is that you should Never cross your legs when going into paralysis, it hampers the whole OBE movement. Make sure you are lying free, legs and arms straight and relaxed.

Sleep Paralysis Stuff
Sleep paralysis occurs on most nights. It's something I have struggled with years ago, but have since developed strategies to turn it into something I enjoy and explore.
Sleep paralysis is experienced when your mind stays awake and aware while the rest of your body stays asleep and frozen. It can happen on going to sleep, or when waking up from a dream.
The feeling is peculiar, you are entirely frozen, but if you try, you can move your limbs and body outside of your physical body, and also get up and walk about. This is also linked with astral travel.
I have recently began performing wild yoga moves whereby I lift my legs up out of my body, and then use my imaginary hands to lift my body further up into a pose. If I allow it, I can then float above my body in ultimate weightless bliss. I might also then flap my arms until I reach my ceiling, then move through the roof and out far into space.
When waving my hands or feet in front of my face, I can make out an eerie outline of my limbs, often shimmering, and at times, I can see transparent veins.
I am often visited by astral beings, I used to become frightened by this, but I now smile deeply from within my heart, and remain in peace. They soon go away. Once I was dragged from my body and along the hallway by one of these beings, I looked up and with a deep smile said "is that all you can do?". I then snapped back into my body. Beating the fear involves giving courage and allowing the experience to unfold while remaining open in your heart. I used to have reoccurring dreams of approaching a door, and then finding myself desperately trying to close it on a crazed demon. I now open the door and invite it whole heartedly like a polite doorman and it suddenly disappears. The demon is your own fear.
Sleep paralysis is deeply relaxing and meditative experience. There is a lot of information on the internet about it, often misleading. The important thing is to experience it yourself. And all you have to do to experience it is to go to bed with the intention that it's going to happen.
Sleep Paralysis is also the gateway into Lucid Dreaming.

Entering the Lucid Dream Land
I had been watching some you tube videos on how to increase Lucidity in your daily life and dreaming. I eventually got on to a ten part series on Lucidipedia on Advanced Lucid Dreaming techniques. I watched just four parts, and then went to bed.
As I lay there, I was comfortable, and deeply feelingly awareness. I remained conscious of my awareness for as long as possible. I eventually reached the transition phase of waking into sleep and experienced what is commonly known as a Wake Induced Lucid Dream (WILD).
I was there from the beginning. The dream world materialized before my eyes. I was excited that I had been able to do it so easily. The dream world felt clear and crisp, and intensely vivid. I began straight away approaching other dream characters to ask them various questions. They seemed a little alarmed that I was approaching them at first. I asked them a few questions that I cannot recall (I hope to improve on this). As the dream characters answered, I feel a strange sensation that their answers are coming from myself.
I started walking through walls. The more you believe you can walk through an object, the easier it is. It's like a thick jelly membrane.
I came across a man walking along with long blond hair who claimed to be a Lucid Dreaming expert, and that we were sharing this Lucid dream. We both walked along side each other laughing at how cool it all was and high fiving each other. He then suddenly walked off. I hope he returns one dream, as he seems wiser than your typical dream character!
Lucid dreaming is a beautiful experience. One needs simply to go to bed with the intention of becoming aware of your dreams. You become aware of your breath and focus on awareness for as long as possible. It can happen straight away, or it can take many days of practice.
Next post I will write about my Out of Body Experiences while in Sleep Paralysis, and my Sleep paralyses Yoga moves which are totally far out and wicked...
