I'm not really one to talk, as I am just getting back into this myself, but have you tried any energy work or visualization to build up energy beforehand? Relaxing the muscles also should help, like tightening and holding for a few seconds and letting go with things like your fingers, arms, legs, etc. I agree that the times that I have ever come close have been when I was laying on my back, but I am not certain this is a necessity for most/some people.

There are also some sound waves laying around the internet (I haven't browsed here for any) that claim to help create the atmosphere in the mind for an OBE. There are sound programs, like the Brainwave Generator, that help make these sounds. The programs, to my knowledge, usually need to be purchased. In the end, though, I think it would feel more satisfying to be able to project without the needs for music or wave generators.

That's all I have myself, hope it helps out a little!
