It may seem similar, but the yo-yo technique uses an up-and-down motion in a flat, two dimensional plane, whereas the carousel uses the up-and-down and the turning motion which makes it three dimensional and far stronger.
If you have not actual ridden on a carousel, it is definitly worth doing if you have the opportunity (with your eyes closed, to commit the sensation to memory).

I only recently returned to astral projection after a inexplicable loss of interest for a period of years. In my early twenties I was able to project instantly almost at will with no praparitary work, but that ability seems to have gone, and now it needs effort and persistance.
I purchased 'Astral Dynamics' about three months ago and have found it very thorough and detailed compared with other books I have read over the years.
I have tried the various 'body loosening' techniques described in the book, but have not had much success with them.
However , I recently developed a new technique which works for me almost instantly.
The method is as follows -
Imagine you are sitting on one of the wooden horses on a carousel. As the carousel turns, the horse moves up and down. This gives an amazing multi-dimensional pulling (loosening) effect of the real time/astral body and certainly (for me) gives almost instant body release.
I hope this may be of use to others who struggle with this element of projection.[/b]

As Nparker points out, the yo-yo technique is only one dimensional, therefore this would explain why I find the carousel routine more effective.
If any members would like to try the technique, I would be most interested in your opinions on it's effectiveness.

Hi folks..!
Joggerman's technique remembers YO-YO OBE Technique developed by Robert... don't you..? The resemblance is high enough.
My best regards,

Yay I'm always looking for new techniques! I'll try it out and let you know how it works.

I tried it about an hour ago and it worked decently I guess, I didn't get out but got relatively quick energetic responces, I can see why this might have helped you more than other techniques!

Thank you and happy experimenting!.
