For the Love of Dog, I Astral Projected

I woke up very early, and didn't want to stay up because I was still so tired, but I remembered that this was the perfect situation to practice astral projection.

I went downstairs, laid on the couch, and covered myself with a small blanket. My body was becoming very relaxed and I started to feel my heart beats, so I decided that it would be my technique to astral project - concentration upon my heart beats. I had that feeling that I just knew I would astral project. That's when the dog started to bark because he wanted me to let him outside. I yelled to the dog to be quiet. He barked again, and I got up and told him to lay down and be quiet.

I laid back down and realized that I was feeling annoyed at the innocent dog and was blaming him for ruining my astral practice. So then I decided to go against that feeling and just feel love for the dog because I do love him. With this thought I was feeling the dog in my heart, as if the love for the dog was beating in my heart. I concentrated upon this. feeling. A couple of minutes later I felt the dog rubbing up against the couch and poking his nose at my arm to wake me up. I was so deeply relaxed that I didn't even open up my eyes, but then wondered: "How did the dog get over here? He is in the other room where he can't get over the baby gate. This is impossible."

From knowing that it was impossible for him to come into the living room, I then thought: "Hey, I must be in the astral!"

I gently opened my eyes. The couch, the blanket the living room... it all looked just like the physical. I carefully unfolded the blanket away from me and got up off the couch like normal. I jumped in the air and stayed floating about a foot from the floor. "Yes, this is the astral!"
The dog looked at me and started to walk away. I floated after him to see how it would be to interact with him in the astral. Well, I lost sight of him so I proceeded to float upstairs to see if I could find my husband who I knew was still sleeping. I wanted to find his astral self, but my focus wasn't strong enough. I woke up on the couch.

When I got up, I went to the dog and he was calmly wagging his tail. I gazed into his eyes and it was amazing because I really felt like he tried so hard to communicate with me telepathically and so he did, and I thanked him for waking me up in the astral! I let him outside so he could play in the snow.

Even though this experience was short, I learned a lot about how important love is when it comes to astral projecting - especially when using the heart concentration technique.
