Ever try to punch someone or run in a lucid dream ? You can't do it by imagining your muscles moving; you just will the end result into action and it happens
@970ab77f best thing about cultivating mindfulness is it can be done any time, any place and also supports what he calls "the phase", practicing anything that demands a lot of focus (reading, writing, coding, working out) can help too
@970ab77f I personally experience REM in hypnosis and meditation
I recommend the book, "the mind illuminated" as a decent way to get into meditation. lucid dreaming is a bit easier -- kind of like training wheels -- btw, ever tried DXM or ketamine?
@970ab77f that point about sleep paralysis is interesting -- hypnosis deliberately focuses on that
With Indic techniques (samadhi/jhana), they instead describe the feeling of your body slowing down and stilling, to the point where you may only breathe once a minute!
If you can play with fasting and sleep deprivation, those can help trigger OoBE -- listening to white noise, metronomes ticking, or certain kinds of music can really help too

@970ab77f astral projection, lucid dreaming, hypnosis, meditation are all birds of the same feather i think.
DXM/ketamine hit the same place
A common technique used in hypnosis is to imagine yourself dropping down out of your body while you lay prone
Do you meditate at all / have you tried hypnosis?
@92892b15 every single landlord is a member of the conspiracy, of course they have minor pyrokinetic skills, along with levitation and flawed invisibility
