So the other night I was meditating, or at least attempting to, by using a different technique to what I usually use, (which is mantra, I used tree visualisation) anyways, I did a sorta inner 'hello' then I'm pretty sure I heard a deep mumble in my ear, so I tried again and I heard the mumble, then I felt funny and my head slumped, it's sorta blank and I don't know if I lost any time, but it sorta felt what an anxiety attack might feel like, to me anyways.

It freaked me out alot, just wondering WTF it was.. Also, i have know idea if i'm meditating properly, so what is the best technique?

Also, I had my first dream for a while last night, or really this morning, which I shall post on the Dream Interpreting sections later maybe..

Hi Sam, I don't think there is such a thing as a best technique for meditating. It's more about what works for you. Some people say you have to clear your thoughts from your mind. Personally I say this is impossible to achieve. A simply acknowledgement and letting them go without concentrating on them normally works for me. But something else to consider is what it is the purpose of your meditation? Is it to connect to your higher self for your own personal benefit or is it to connect to other spirits? Once you know this you can then use different methods. Some people enjoy using guided visualisations, or listening to music, whereas some prefer sitting in the quiet. You could focus on your breathing or on a flame of a candle. Laura (pagan medium) has posted a meditation you could try, have a look on forums for it.
One thing I wouldn't do is to repeat a mantra that I do not know what the words mean. I'm not saying this is the case with you Sam, just expressing my opinion. I would say the main thing is not to worry about what may or may not happen when you are meditating because this may prevent you from experiencing a wonderful meditation. Good luck

What I sense is that you had a OBE with your soul...the mummble in the ear seems as though it was a distraction so you could fully engulf the OBE...especially since you were visualizing with trees...trees are the foundation of our root chakras they have the roots that dig deep into the Earth and draw up the female energy into our bodies...you may have actually visualized a mystic tree ....try the meditation again dont be afraid the anxiety feeling is just fear of the unknown ... when you do the meditation again visualize a Golden light from God surrounding you ask for protection and then try the 'hello' again..when you get the mummble ask for the energy to either raise your vibration so you get more of an experience or ask them to lower theirs AWsome work with the meditation though sounds like you are opening something up.

God bless

Thanks Skye and Zinthar, I tried my usual meditation last night, this time asking the Lord and Lady to keep me safe (I was worried, okay) before trying it.

Got the same sort of feeling, and I heard the mumble again, once this time, the sensation (once I get over the weirdness of it) is like I ain't really controling my body anymore, and I can hear and feel my heart's every beat loud and clear.

I thought it was an OBE the first time, but alas, I could move my physical hand, which of course meant that I hadn't OBEd, that's probs my fault for having one, as I don't feel ready as of yet, I will keep up meditating using both techniques in turn.

Also, I had a mantra pop into my head once, it sorta sounds like 'Stin Yeen' or something to that effect...

At peace ATM ~Foso

Hi Foso, the sensations from your heart beat can be due to spirit drawing too close. If it happens again just ask them to step back a little. This used to happen to me whenever they drew close. In time you may notice their energies do not affect your own body as they do now. If you feel uncomfortable at any time ask that they remove the feelings. They will do, for they do not wish to cause you suffering in any way.
