Problem with OBE

Silly Bear

Hello, (BEWARE: Short introduction ahead! You may skip to the *)
I've always been interested in the paranormal. May it be ghosts, alien encounters, psychic abilities or magic pancakes. I've been into psychic abilities for around 5 years now, while having little to no success in most areas I still find it fun to mess around with.
*One among many things I enjoy doing is trying to get an out of body experience. It's really convienient to do at nights when you can't fall asleep. :)
It feels as I'm close to having one too. I get to the point were it's like my whole body has fallen asleep except for my concious mind. I can feel a weird sensation in the body as I imagine something like a dark hole sucking me in (don't ask me why, I recall reading about that technique somewhere, and it's proven to be effective on me). It's here were I face a problem. After a while I can feel my heartbeat slowing down, and it feels like it's close to stop beating at all. This throws me off-focus and sometimes causes a small panic to me, resulting in me failing. It's quite annoying as I feel kinda like I've reached the last step before successfully having an OBE.
Is it just a normal thing not to worry about? Or have I just found a new stupid way of holding my breath? Anyhow, it's a great obstacle for me.

I heard about something similar to this elsewhere... Someone was worried because they thought that they stopped breathing during OBE attempts. But I think that the conclusion was reached that it probably wasn't the case, and it was just an effect of becoming disconnected from their body. I don't have any particular suggestions to things you could try to test it out, except maybe having something to record your heart rate over the time you're trying to have an OBE, and see whether it is affected at all.
However, I'm not really one to dispense information on OBEs, having never had one myself. Your best bet is probably Sean. =)

On a side note, I fear aliens.
The heartbeat is probably the most common rhythm to humans in the whole world. We experience it all our lives, when it acts out of the normal (we get excited, our heart beats faster, etc) we can feel it. The only reason most people don't feel it on a daily basis is because we are used to it.
It is said that people choose music/songs with beats per minute/second that match their favorite heartbeat.
It would be a scary thing to suddenly not feel that familiar heartbeat, if your aura/spirit/psi/whatever was about to leave your body, wouldn't it?
I don't think you should have to worry though, you're not the only thing living inside your body, there are also millions of cells that wish to stay alive so they work together to keep your body functioning. I'd be a little weary an OBE that lasted a long time.
People in comma's can stay alive, right? If they enter a comma, they usually continue breathing, their heart keeps beating, etc. However, they lack the ability to defend/care for themselves. Huge disadvantage to having an OBE.
What if an alien did something to your body while you couldn't defend yourself!?!?!

I doubt any defense for your self you could manage wouldn't matter to an alien. That's pretty interesting about the music/songs with bpm that match their favorite heartbeat.
