Ah, it sems I've encountered a problem.

I hit the vibational state a few moments ago while my son was down for a nap. It came after hypnagogia as far as I could tell. I did body relaxation and observed the images/sounds that come before sleep, at which I've become quite proficient. I briefly lost lucidty, snapped back into, and saw the vague outline/impression of a piece of furniture. I honed in on it and it morphed into the gray blob that, ideally, then turns into a checkerboard tunnel.

I completely blew it when the old "fast heartbeat" problem hit me. I usually don't get strong tactile energy sensations, but I did some breath awareness meditation prior, so maybe that had something to do with it. It felt like my heart was beating 300 times a minute and was about to pop out of my chest. Despite all my practice I was convinced that my heart was literally about to explode, and of course this ruined the exit. Now I'm kicking myself.

Does anyone have advice on strong heart chakra activity just prior to exit? I also felt like I was on top of an unbalanced washing machine, but this was not too much of a problem.
