Out of body
When Im pushing a maximum effort trail run I sometimes see myself from slightly above and behind.And now and then I am looking forward from a point some distance In front of myself.When I encounter mountain bikers or other hikers I get a little scared and often see myself from their point of view.I get really really embarrassed being naked when that happens but I push on.When I carry shorts in my hand nothing happens. Its only when Im nude with nothing to cover with.
Another dream comment. I have a lot more dreams about being nude in an inappropriate public place since I started sleeping nude.
I dream constantly about being naked at work, but probably not all dreams, cos I will work naked wherever possible, I'm an electrician and if working in an empty property I will strip off and work naked, chasing walls, going in dusty lofts, so much easier to have a shower and clean me than to wash work clothes!!

How do you get home?
Oh as a kid in the pool. I was floating naked in about 4 ft of water..
Just my face above the water. I was so relaxed that I left my body and started to take off into the sky. As soon as I thought about what was happening to me, I shot back to my body. Dam it ! I have been trying to do it again ever since.
Mushrooms have not done it yet.
A close friend of mine was found unresponsive in a pool and was resuscitated. He was taken to a hospital for observation, oxygen monitoring & treatment. I asked him about it & he reported he was floating above his body watching the lifeguard & then medical personnel work on him before he *re-entered* his body. He is still with us 15 years later. It happens.
Why is this in *Sex & Sexuality* ?

What do you think has brought you to this high a level of skepticism? Too spiritual a subject,or is there something you find disturbing about it?
I remember a couple of out-of-body moments in my twenties, and matter of fact, both were sexually-driven. While on vacation and back in my wilder youth, a girlfriend hung me up with handcuffs in a closet at our motel, and left me there with the door closed and naked for over half an hour. Before she came back and released me, I could swear I was floating out in the living room near her, watching her, wondering how long she was going to leave me hanging - both in the figurative and sexually-literal sense. I had an interest in the strange experience enough to buy a book about it and even did some dream analysis study around the same time. I wish now that I could focus my mind the way I could back in those days.
I enjoyed reading all these comments. Generally speaking I believe when the candle goes out there is nothing more. Having said that, many years ago my best friend and house mate was going through a rough time and decided to end his life. We had a big argument previously in the evening. The argument did not precipitate the action. Anyway, we both had gone to bed and I was very angry. After a short sleep I woke up and went to my buddy to apologize and say I didnt want to go to sleep angry. My friend didnt respond and I went back to sleep. Soon I awoke again and tried to talk with my friend but again no reply. I went back to sleep. For a third time I awoke and came off the bed sideways. I turned on the light by his bed and he was as deep purple blue. I called for emergency help and ambulance while administering CPR. Firemen showed up in minutes. He was clinically dead but somehow they managed to revive him. Later in the hospital I discovered he had overdosed. I dont recall if he told me or if I asked but he told me he had been out of his body floating in the room and was completely aware of everything. He said in this state he was in was serene and peaceful and that he had not wanted to return into his body. I am not sure why he did but thankfully he did. I was there. I know it was true.
