1) I haven't yet done any intensive energy work, but I do have the PDF that describes NEW in full (I just need to find the time to read it and follow the instructions). Part of the problem is that I have to do my energy work / astral projection work in secret, because my mom for some reason believes AP is associated with evil / bad stuff (I think she did a Google awhile back, when my friend introduced me to AP, and found some stuff she didn't like). Actually, maybe you might have some suggestions as to how I might turn her negative view of AP into a more positive one? I've just learned that when she's antsy about something, I'd rather not push it...

2) I sort of just lay there and wait for the physical body to fall asleep, using breath awareness to keep myself focused, then I start trying to use the elevator / ladder technique to go into trance (though I have to admit I have no idea if I'm doing it right), and then I try to use the rope technique to project. The thing is, I tend to have trouble keeping focused on the task at hand, and occasionally I fall asleep and forget what I was doing. I'm trying to improve my focus, though, and my surface mind (what RB calls the memo pad) doesn't give me too much trouble with tasks / worries, although my favorite music tracks do creep in a lot.

Thanks,
Andy
