My First SLEEP PARALYSIS/ASTRAL PROJECTION Experience

[@InterWarp]

I love that you made it a point in your intro to identify science as not all-knowing. I often lack the awareness to recall the truth that science is still just human interpretation of the world. I often consciously think of science as an almost god-like being, infallible and all knowing. You're right though, science can't account for everything. Thanks :)

[@David-wl4hx]

Astral projection is an unmistakable experience to be had :) been quite a while since I've ventured out of body. To anyone reading this who's experienced sleep paralysis... it's the gateway 💂🏽

[@christianmartinez7325]

the furthest I've got to Astral projection was years ago when I was able to put myself in the paralysis, my entire body started vibrating intensely and violently and the sensation is what jolted me back awake, that's as far as I got and most people who have also told me about their experience have also only gotten that far too lol

[@Bubatu7]

The experience starts at about 5:02 .

[@rosiebrown1631]

6:37 I had sort of the same experience - like you were talking about your body vibrating, I thought i was having a seizure and i could hear this high ringing in my ears

[@yourmatetom]

How to prepare for your first mushroom trip & my girlfriend's heroic dose trip report (+Live Footage) coming out real soon! ;) How was your first mushroom trip?

[@gogo311]

My first trip was awesome. Just 0.5g Liberty Caps and I was tripping properly. Never felt such peace and powerful empathy before. Shame that they're so hard to find.

[@itsjustme114]

my first trip was the craziest experience of my entire life. 2.5 g of cubensis. at some point i was trapped in some kind of infinite time loop... i forgot who i was, where i was, what i was, just about everything that makes us human and gives some sense of being.

[@DeadShredz]

Ate ~2 grams of cubensis in a meadow and watched a caterpillar turn into a psychedelic butterfly

[@RVAlien]

I wish I knew where to get some. I really need that experience.

[@avfcsouthpaw]

where in the world are you?

[@DMTInfinity]

Your channel makes me happy.

[@lilbigtoe7420]

I can relate to that electric feeling you experienced. I've always been able to wake myself up during it though. Sleep paralysis scared the hell out of me.

[@snowwall4072]

I tried so much everytime to this but when i get to thebpoint if sleep paralysis and the vibrating thing i slap myself out and wake up lol

[@thegodpopper8934]

I've astral projected. Initially sleep paralysis when I woke up one a bright sunny morning. Weird thing was I could feel and move my hands by my side even though I was looking at them next to my face. I could even clap my hands and HEAR them. Scary as. Another time had sleep paralysis, similar thing but a weird noise then loud voice came into my head and said "come out and I'll show you!" No lie, I shit myself and forced my body to move. The other time I had sleep paralysis I was determined to come fully out. I managed to relax further but move my astral hands, I could see black silhouette of them moving across my field of vision in the dark room. I then got out of my body, walked into the corridor and looked up stairs. Was weird, I couldn't look at my body though, like my vision blocked it. I then walked into the living room and levitated, that scared me and I fell back into my body.

[@leggesterlegacy1496]

Ryans a special guy!

[@Jake-pp7dk]

ive had this so many times! lol i dont know much about it .. but in my dream i can always fly or levitate and then i wake up and have sleep paralysis... mdma always gives me sleep paralysis too... nice vid!

[@5DHealingChristinaMartine]

Wow! Intense! Thanks for sharing!!

[@yourmatetom]

Thanks for watching! :)

[@xMiyazakiAkira]

very interesting .. subscribed.. if people knew this, they wouldn't be screaming and crying next to a loved one's bed when they're dying, they would be encouraging them to continue into a spiritual journey with smiles and positivity. . but maybe a soul incarnates here for a reason, and is meant to experience the human experience for something , reason being why most people dont realize this, maybe we're not meant to unless we choose to do it for ourselves, and it's entirely up to us.

[@Peaches08861]

I've done sleep paralysis a lot but I never had the chance to astral project. I'll try it the next it happens to me.

[@HarJockex]

Anyone ever experienced like a half-awake lucid dreaming? What I mean is, sometimes when I take a powernap I can get into this mode where I can see my room, my bed and other stuff but my eyes are closed and I am conscious. They are often so strong visually that I don´t know whether my eyes are closed or not and whether it´s real or not. Then I open my eyes and realize that it wasn´t real. It´s not astral projection however since I see everything from my own body

[@daisygirl1217]

if you were out of your body and able to see all around you then you are having OBE's....it happens quite a bit for me during meditation...

[@TheSuperfix]

This exact thing kept happening to me when I was constantly on adderal, and barely slept, when I did fall asleep it was from exhaustion, and I'd get stuck in this state, convinced that some of my friends were in the room with me, in my bed, sitting around, talking to me

[@Bad_m340i]

bro i have the EXACT same experience!!!!

[@tomosobi3603]

That happened to daidus (in his sleep paralysis video). Some people believe its your pineal gland opening but I dont know

[@lord.kagiso3741]

Happened to me last night. And I could even move my hands as it happened I felt a strong pressure on my stomach like my guys were being pressed against my spine. The body does phenomenal things.

[@mikenolan7299]

I've been getting sleep paralysis as long as I can remember, I thought it was something that happens to everyone. Usually I can't move but I feel as something is watching me, sometimes I'll hallucinate someone there, but the worst ones are where I can feel something on me but I can't move or scream to get it off, they scare the shit out of me, occasionally I wake up crying or screaming. But when I wake up, can move my body and come back to "reality" the fear goes away instantly and I realise what just happened to me and I try go back to sleep

[@Metamorphosis2024]

You're a very intelligent man Tom. I've been watching some videos of others doing the same thing as you here on youtube and you seem to be the most genuine of them all. We are a spiritually depleted and materialistic society. We have lost faith in religion and government. Religion scares people but more of us are turning to old traditions and the ways of ancient cultures. Psychadelics are a tool for those who are willing and ready to evolve. Revolution evolution. Follow your heart, share your knowledge and the universe will reward you. Positive vibes :)

[@yourmatetom]

People are finally waking up which is very reassuring. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. It's really nice knowing that people can resonate with my message. :)

[@jaylebron777]

This ghost hunter (doesn't do it anymore) rebuked one of the ghosts she was hunting and the sound you made is exactly what she recorded. The ghost left screeching.

[@Playlistv2]

Brilliant :) always been skeptical of the astral realm but hopefully an experience of my own will change that. Thanks for sharing!

[@sonystar1727]

What about now?

[@User-mo3yv]

Very Very Similar Experience! I Heard Wind And Train Sounds No Vibrations I Rose Up And The Minute I Felt Fear I Heard A Dark Choir Sing While I Rose Up Slowly It Sounded Like They Were Right Beside Me My Room Had More Vibrant Colors It Looked Like I Was Seeing Lens Flares (That Rgb Effect) But Out Of Fear I Slowly Went Back To My Body And Since Then Just Had Sleep Paralysis I Understand How Mental It Is I The Astral Plane And In Sleep Paralysis What You Think Is What Happens

[@tallfungus]

Please keep making videos mate your extremely inspiring and also relatable! Haha you don't sound crazy at all and also your super interesting and help me with my pretty much everyday life and all that. Sooo umm keep it up bro! :)

[@pammyrogers]

I like the front photo you chose for the video. Very dramatic as it is.

[@rain-wj6vv]

Yesss! Rayan cropper has very interesting videos!!!

[@GemZbabe101]

interesting that you experienced something similar as me once I realized that I was dreaming it turned into kinda bad trip and I wanted to leave it so hard. at the same time I saw my room, like to two realities, but I couldn't really get back to my body, as if my consciousnes was millions of miles anf miles away adn then suddenly I rushed through a tunnel in something like light speed back to my physical body.. for a moment when I opened my eyes I really thought I had died hahaaha it was so scary, has shown me how little I know and how intense and huge it all can be

[@xMiyazakiAkira]

also you should look up william buhlman and his take on it, he's been doing it for over 20 years and has a lot of experience with it :)

[@David-wl4hx]

Subscriber count is looking lovely Tom, keep up the momentum!

[@hersoul7775]

damn I’m kinda mad at myself. I unintentionally reached the vibrational stage with the buzz in my third eye. I stopped it from happening and forced myself out of it. I was on the brink of an AP but I still have a fear of negative entities too.

[@frankp9919]

If you are having a hard time separating your astral body from your physical body during sleep paralysis, here is a little trick I have learned throughout my experiences. When you are in sleep paralysis, instead of trying to sit strait up, try rolling from your left to your right and left again and right. I always roll right out of my body and bed. Trying to sit up or lift your arms will bring on this crazy intense vibration, and feel like your astral body is being pulled like a rubber band back to your body. That realm can be pretty amazing, but in my experience also contains entities that can become aware of your being there so be aware of that.

[@SVPR3M3]

Last night i had a sleep paralysis & when i woke up i was stuck in my bed. And i told myself “ok your body is how u want it, try & astral project” and i was imagining myself go up. & i ended up waking myself up.

[@rockparkoure]

your videos are great. And i love how you have lucid dreaming on this channel I've been actively practicing lucid dreaming for 5 years super obsessed for a while probably at the very least like you where, and I'm only 16. Its such a great thing, i hope i see it gain momentum like psychedelics seem to be doing! And I'm not 100% closed to the idea of OBE's but i feel it would be easy to prove, like just have something in a room the person has not seen and if they know its proof. Just a though. Keep up the great videos!

[@xMiyazakiAkira]

if it seems like a negative entity, it's all in your mind, it may be an actualy being of energy and soul, but it only appears to be a "demon" because of the negative thought in your head.

[@ihakastock4044]

I’ve astral projected many times but for some reason I’m always completely alone yet all these videos and explanations I see people always talk about these different entities like demons angels or lost love ones ect yet I’m completely alone every time does anyone know why?

[@rileyhedgesgold]

5:30 I had the exact same experience, just I used a different reality check

[@angiequeale2220]

You're so descriptive and interesting!!😱😃

[@Ruiimai]

i had no clue that the loud intense white noise was me vibrating... whenever i have sleep paralysis im always tryin to fight it

[@editname1466]

love your vids m8 ,keep it up 👍

[@yourmatetom]

Thanks! :)

[@davidrotaru]

You should try the visualization exercises from The Linden Method, mate.They help a lot for quieting the mind,for making your mind your bitch... :)

Nice profile picture!

[@GodlyB3ast777]

The first time i took 3 tabs i had a super intense astral projection and it was around christmas time. I remember sitting by my christmas tree on my couch and i tried to stand up, my vision turned into a camera on top of the christmas tree pointed towards me. This was the first time of me experiencing astral projection too so naturally i couldnt stop myself from saying "holy fuck, what the fuck" like 10 times and then i fell back onto the couch and my vision went back to normal, meanwhile my friend was hysterically laughing at me because i looked so retarded. But that shit was cray.

[@99Akinator]

I reached so many times to the part when my body shakes so crazy, but at the same time I go panic mode, so I have a mental conflit cause I don't know if to wake up or going further, so allways end up waking up. I never managed to reach astral mode.

[@Cuckoo4thetruth]

I heard of negative experiences, I’d say be careful but you’re not in control. This scares me.

[@bwinward2009]

Had sleep paralysis one night after doing cocaine, one of the scariest experiences of my life.

[@gulagbatman1318]

life? lol jk

[@normalsaline8913]

What would be a good test/experiment to determine this phenomena? Think about that and do it.

[@HalfAhBean]

dude you're awesome!

[@DJWudi94]

have you looked into metaphysics within your consciousness. it definitely goes within this topic aswell

[@northhallbabe13]

ryan cropper is the fucking man! he brought me more into astral projection too

[@commandingsteel]

my problem is when ever i realize i;'m dreaming it's because in my dream i'm put into some bullshit situation, and because of the nature of the situation i can eralize i'm dreaming, and out of spite i almost always instantly say "fuck this shit, i'm waking up" and right as i say that i start to wake up, only to be filled with regret knowing i could have easily taken control of my dream, haha

[@kz2361]

I have an interesting question and video possibility for you Tom. Did the recollection of all your dreams achieve anything specifically profound for you and your everyday life

[@JohnR32111]

Very interesting but I'm not sure what the point of astral projection would be if it involves encountering horrifying negative entities? I understand this happening with psychedelics like ayahuasca because the dmt has actual healing properties. Wondering what people's goals or aspirations or possible benefits are with astral projection? Keep in mind I know virtually nothing about this topic. Thanks for any insight. Oh yeah, also wondering what drew you to lucid dreaming and what goals or benefits you derive from this practice. Cheers Tom, always enjoy your videos.

[@daisygirl1217]

I've had at least 20+ of them and never have run into negative entities and I too deal with severe depression in my life. It's always been exhilarating and amazing as well as a wonderful escape from reality here on Earth.

[@finn-rouvensuchau1970]

Dude i had an experience like that once I was lying on the beach in the evening beside the campfire

[@shaileshchotoe]

10:33 HAHAHAHA I FEEL YOU MAN 😂😂😂😂😂

[@mandalaj5093]

i dunno why but i felt compelled to rub my nose whenever Tom did..

[@alpineparrot1057]

I'm interested in your Lucid Dreaming Tom, can you post some stuff about that?

[@Peaches08861]

Also @Tom, my dreams seem to be more vivid when I have alcohol the night before. What is that all about?

[@Davyc712]

Could be your sub conscience trying to talk to you.

[@gulagbatman1318]

Can someone explain what was this: I tried wild and i got to impatient, so i decided to go to bed instead and as i was falling asleep. I was 3/4 unconscious and then i heard the most VIVID scream at the edge of my room which lasted for about 1.5 seconds. I WAS LIKE: NOPE NOPE NOPE! All i heard was "KAAAA!!-"

[@sighnx6868]

Keep your both hand above chest and sleep upside,=boom sleep paralysis

[@Davidjones-nv3zn]

hey man, have you ever checked out koiscorner? hes got some really good vids on astral projection, and adresses the stuff about demon entities

[@JustMitchPool]

I lucid dream quite often but who's your dealer?

[@ihakastock4044]

If you get sleep paralysis and want to wake up faster from it change your rate of breathing and wiggle your toes

[@lordawesometony2764]

So this brings up many questions

[@aminsamadi5634]

I think lucid dreaming is just knowing that you're dreaming and thus having the ability to dream as you like. Not in the sense that the dream should be manipulated but understanding that you are in one of the infinite multiplicity of possible dreams as to not identify with the dream that you happen to be in and thus not take it too seriously. I would even go so far as to say you're not the dreamer, that's universal consciousness or god or whatever you want to call it. You are merely the permission to dream, the capacity to feel god's presence in the oneness of nothing. I would argue this is not an experience in time because that would imply that the experiencer and the experienced are two separate entities, an insight perhaps.

[@angeleyeszarai]

❤❤❤❤

[@TripleEightss]

without a shred of a doubt tho

[@3dge--runner]

i get sleep paralysis almost every night. crazy, hypnogogic shit

[@superhacker35]

I used to get them when I was on meds, they are horrible. Every night is not ok they will mess with your life without you noticing. Get off meds if you take any and take medical cannabis. When I went off the meds, I went down to maybe twice a month, after trying cannabis I never got sleep paralysis again. Been 4 years

[@lowanshields7628]

+superhacker35 damn

[@ShenR0]

Yeah, the transparent, bluish body, I've once seen myself like that too :-)

[@littlewordy6477]

Yeah but what about when u see a transparent bluish body next to you in bed in that state? Happened to me a couple of months back, didng know if I was lucid dreaming or seeing a soul, trippy stuff.

[@bobzthecat82]

this is no different from dabbling into the occult, ouija board, mediums etc, its just a different way of contacting the spirit world. The risks are bringing evil entities into your body and your life, a dangerous result from innocent curiosity, and really is it worth it. Demon possession may sound crazy to someone contemplating astral projection, and a positive attitide wont protect you from them like you think;.remember you are in their territory and you have to play by their rules. Go research more experiences before you get fully involved and weigh up the risks.
