I can't even fathom 360 vision, and I've heard it is possible with AP. Just one more reason to learn it.
Supposedly, AP decreases fear in addition to being fun. If you can overcome those fears easily without it, then great. But if you can't or just want a short-cut, having tried AP can either help, or just give you peace that you tried it.
I'm very interested in the spiritual aspects of it, rather than the fun, so LD isn't enough for me. I've wanted an OBE since childhood and just didn't realize it. It's kind of a catch-22, though, since I have anxiety that makes altered states of consciousness difficult to achieve, yet learning those techniques would diminish my anxiety. Hmm. . .
