- I am assuming that some, if not all of you have heard of Rick Stack's book "Out-Of-Body Adventures". If you have not, I
- would recommend it as a supplement to the Monroe books or any other books on the subject. I think it has some good
- information which adds to and coroborates Robert Monroes methodology, as well as others.
-
- One thing I really like about his book, is the format is very straight forward and easy to read through in a couple sittings. It has
- a very different tone than alot of the other OOBE books, because it gets right down to the nitty-gritty and gives specific
- techniques and theories with interspersed stories from Rick's OOBE's and some of his students OOBE's as well. Showing that
- the average person can have OOBE's easily and is encouraged to do so.
-
- One of his techniques for OOBE's as well as lucid dreams, centers around the use of affirmations. Affirmations, are just a way
- of focusing your desires or beliefs in a positive way, for enhancing or attracting new experiences, or helping in visualization of a
- goal.
-
- I know that the idea of auto-suggestions or affirmations is nothing new, but I think Rick explains it in a very easy-to-understand
- manner and has touched on some areas that others have skimmed over to a degree. Also his techniques of working with beliefs
- and fears is VERY helpful especially since my recent posting have been about fears induced by a certain belief system that shall
- remain nameless.....
-
- I have found the following affirmations to be very helpful and have been combining them with the Gateway affirmation for
- added effect. I feel that they are working to my benefit, but as I explain below, I have been confronting other difficulties as well.
-
- Rick's Affirmation:
-
- I am going to have an out-of-body experience.
- I am going to let myself drop off to sleep, but
- I am going to bring this waking consciousness with me wherever I go.
- I am going to leave my body with full awareness.
-
- (Repeat often, while going to sleep)
-
- One of My custom affirmations:
-
- (TMI-Gateway affirmation, with "guidance" extension)
-
- Tonight I will travel out-of-body. I am going to allow myself to fall asleep, but I will
- bring this waking consciousness with me wherever I go. I will leave with full
- awareness, and recall all that occurs, upon awakening.
-
- (Repeat same as above)
-
- This affirmation has not resulted in an actual OBE yet, but has spurred some very vivid Lucid Dreams, two of them ending up in
- a return from inner reality to the conscious vibrational state. For some reason, when I find myself spontaneously in the
- vibrational state, either napping or coming out of a LD, I always sabotage it and wake up fully physically conscious.
-
- If you find that the above affirmation helps your OBE's, let me know. I am always interested in hearing about others
- experiences and OOBE's or even Lucid Dreams. Your success may help others feel more confident, which is what I assume a
- group of this kind is for. Mutual support is highly contagious!
