This might sound ignorant, but do you mean literally focusing in front of you (where you're looking)? Because I'd assume that's what people do naturally anyway. Did you mean something else, like focusing on your chest, stomach, etc. I probably sound stupid. ;Dasadon wrote:I focus on it
One more tip that might help some times is to bring your awareness to the front of your body.

Based on some theories I've read it could mean you are achieving a projection but your consciousness is not shifting and your memories are not downloading to your conscious mind.SilverElf wrote:I experience the spins often when I'm drifting off to sleep, but nothing ever happens.
Does anyone have any advice on what to do once the spinny/vertigo sensation is achieved in order to successfully project?
So you've projected but can't recall the experience of your astral projection. Do some mantra work to tell yourself to remember your experiences, and try to tell yourself to do something during the experience that is memorable. Also tell yourself to keep the projection for only enough time to just look at yourself and jump back to your body. The shorter the OBE, the more likely you will remember it.

That's interesting, that maybe I've projected but can't remember. I always thought of it as a failed projection.Regholdain wrote:Based on some theories I've read it could mean you are achieving a projection but your consciousness is not shifting and your memories are not downloading to your conscious mind.SilverElf wrote:I experience the spins often when I'm drifting off to sleep, but nothing ever happens.

I'll try mantra work to help myself remember, if that's the case.
Thanks!

Regholdain and Dasadon:
Thanks for your input! I will try mantra work and focusing on my breath while bringing my awareness into my chest area. I think I know what you mean by that; hoping that I'm right, haha.

It took me some experimentation before I understood when someone gave me that advice. You’ll figure it out with experimentation as well. You just need to figure out what works for you you know?
