Interesting, i tried this last night. Although i haven't got to phase of sleeping i got into the phase of "eminent shutdown feeling" where my body had a sensation like someone had shut down the entire power grid of my body, i thought something special would happen, like i would actually enter the dream like you enter the room through the door, well it seemed like i got into some ether world, i saw blue light, glimpses of images like when you are starting to semi-consciously enter the dream. But alas
nothing, so i decided to turn on my side and start sleeping the old way, although i had to consciously force my body to move, it was not that hard like you have no control of the body but i had to exert some will to open my mouth and move my arms and legs. All in all, like Erin said this is great stuff, for first to start lucid dreaming, 2nd to start to grasp the concept of firing up the chakras and exert OBE experience. I said it before: cant wait to get through the firs phase! (^_^)
