Walking into Awareness
Last night I went to bed late and didn’t set the intent to leave my body while I was falling asleep at the beginning of my night. I fell asleep around 12:30 AM shortly after my 3 year old daughter climbed into bed with us.
I woke up at 4;30 AM after having a dream that I was living in and owned the house in Tennessee that I grew up in as a child. I don’t understand at the moment why, but several people I work with were living there too. I went and used the restroom and came back to bed and fell asleep.
I woke up again at 6:30 AM and noticed that my arm had been in an awkward position and had waken me up due to poor circulation. I figured that I had enough sleep at this point and set the intent to have an OBE.
I settled into a position and became very still and ran the mantra “I am out of body now” though my head several times until I fell into sleep again. I remember repeating the mantra about 4 times and then found myself walking down an unfamiliar road headed towards my parents house that I had dreamed about and my mind still had recollection of my coworkers and of my previous dream earlier in the night.
While I was walking down the road my awareness was definitely in a dreamlike reactive state at first and then I simply walked into awareness. It’s hard to explain this but as I walked down that road everything around me transitioned into waking awareness and became not only clear in my mind but clear in my vision as well. I was seeing things around me with waking clarity and I could not tell if I was OBE or awake. I felt a familiar fear surge through my body as if I was in waking life suffering from some sort of amnesia.
I continued to walk for a few seconds and then my logical brain clicked into place and I knew I could test this reality by attempting to fly. I jumped up off the ground and then while in the air I focused on wanting to fly. I felt a magnetic like force take hold of me and then a movement upwards started off slow and increased in speed until I literally felt the g-forces on my body as I accelerated upwards. I flew up and past the top of the trees and then my awareness shifted again into a knowing that I was either dreaming or was out of my body.
Seconds after I realized I was not in waking life I found myself in bed and I was spinning and had a slight but almost unnoticable vibration or warmth flowing through my body. I tried to hold onto this and project back out but I eventually woke up.
