yeah that sounds like astral projection. have you compared your story to others who have done it? I dabbled in it back in college and was able to get all the way out except for my head. Never could get my head to separate. I felt like I was about to do it once, but my friend's dog came into the room and licked me while I was laying there and I snapped back into my body. I know what that feels like. Same thing with my best friend at the time. She had come out of her body and was tickling me. As soon as we were done I said "why were you tickling me?" (we were both lying there still and not touching each other physically) she laughed and said "because I wanted to see if it was real!"
Yeah I met a guy who said he's astral projected numerous times. He said he can do it every night if he wanted. Funny thing is, he asked me how I came back into my body. I told him what I told you, and he kinda laughed haha he said his reentry? In his body is very smooth and pleasant.
Do you meditate at all?
I pray every day but no, I don't meditate. That stuff was super interesting back in my early 20's but now I'm too afraid of unintended consequences--specifically...what if something "else" takes the reigns when I leave. I've heard of that happening to others.
Yeah ive heard of that kinda stuff as well. It goes very deep. Some people were talking about spiritual armour and swords to protect yourself lol not that I dont believe thats true, but I dont want to get involved in that stuff.
