	out-of-body experience (OBE)
		An out-of-body experience (OBE) is characterized by a feeling of departing from one’s physical body and observing both one’s self and the world from outside of one’s body.
		Her experience with the silver cord is right out of traditional occult literature on astral projection.
		Even though she was, and remains, frightened by these experiences (because she fears she is dying and will not return to her body), she told me she used to think everybody had them.

	Astral Projection and Out of Body Experiences: Out-of-Body Experience - part 1 of 2
		This constant (usually unconscious) exchange of energy is responsible for maintaining the necessary functioning of the body and for keeping it alive, both when the individual is in the waking state and when he or she is outside the body.
		The most concrete personal evidence of this is when an individual gains lucidity outside the body and witnesses his physical body sleeping on the bed.
		In fact, this energetic body is the connection point through which the fields of energy generated by the chakras inside the human body flow back and forth to the nonphysical body.

	Astral Projection
		The description of out of body experience is most typically, that one is lying in bed asleep or awake, when suddenly you experience a range sensations, often including strong vibrations, heaviness, humming and paralysis.
		Each of us here has these experiences to some extent even before birth while in the womb and most of us have had an out of body experience at some point in our lives.
		You may feel as though you still have a body or may feel a more elongated non-bodily form or as though you have no body at all and are just aware of being in a conscious presence of mind.

	DEATH HAD A FACE: The Specter of Death in Shamanism and Zen
		However, death, the Near Death Experience (NDE), or the Out-of-Body Experience (OBE) that has a major role in various accounts of SOME Awakening experiences, although discounted in most of the Wanderling's offerings, is not totally overlooked either...it is just not emphasized as a key proponent in the various things the Wanderling presents.
		The near death stage described by the Wanderling was closer to what is called in Sanskrit NIRODHA than say, a New Age type Near Death Experience or Out-of-Body Experience.
		As far as death, a brush with death, out of body experiences, flatlining, or any other similar experience or thing...they are, as with anything else, NOT important to the Awakening experience.

	NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE RESEARCH FOUNDATION (NDERF)
		Yet the researchers argued the exact opposite, and showed that conscious experience outside the body took place during a period of clinical death when the brain was flatlined.
		In the next phase of the experience, the essence of me was floating through a gray fog type of swirling mist.
		What is the meaning of the NDE and is it for the experiencer or for us all?

	Nagel: Mind and Body
		Bodies and Persons are individuated by criteria of identity that share some requirements, for example spatio-temporal locatability, but not sharing others, such as the capacity to experience pain [See footnote 10].
		There is no accepted resolution to the problem of explaining or eliminating the seeming dualism of First Person experience, consisting of bodily sensations, qualia and so on, and Third Person experience, consisting of perceived things and processes in physical space and time.
		Though the problem was famously formulated as a dualism by Descartes [See footnote 2] in terms of a metaphysics of substances and properties this metaphysical framework can and has sustained a variety of ways of dealing with the seeming incompatibility of the material and the mental.

	STTP Body Piercing AfterCare
		Your body is made up of 70% salt water and because of this the salt water soaks will help increase circulation to area which will reduce the healing time.
		It would then still be a good idea for you to keep in mind that most doctors don't have everyday experience dealing with body piercing care so they may not have the education to best aid you.
		The guidelines listed here have been compiled from a wide range of professional experience, research, and extensive clinical practice.

	my life after near death experiences
		I try to help otherwise very intelligent people with their computers and I find it near hopeless: IQ 130 people who are really "IQ 40" with computers as they lived all of their lives without them.
		That is...I seemed to leap away from my own body to look at it from a distance, what I saw was a tube of light, a tunnel of light, and my head, with part of my upper body, floating downwards to a hole, which is my body on the bed.

	Isis Metaphysical Books Article: Astral Projection
		Astral Projection: astral body moves a distance from physical and accurately reports what is seen on physical, experience directly in astral; no restriction of distance; particularly good for absent healing..
		In fact we have many different bodies known as 'subtle bodies' - the etheric body shows health, is what most auric readers see; the astral body to which astral consciousness is projected; the mental body used for pathworkings and the spiritual body which is the essence of the person.
		The Astral Level is the realm of emotions- when you experience strong emotions, either positive or negative, you sometimes create a form of those emotions on the astral level.

	Body Image: The Inner Mirror - Journal of Prosthetics and Orthotics, 1997 American Academy of Orthotists & Prosthetists

		Because body image lies at the center of personality, body experience is the nucleus of psychological life (14).
		Body image is the mental picture a person forms of his or her physical self.

	ET&S [3 (3)] - The Body Matrix: A Phenomenological Exploration of Student Bodies On-line
		The students feel WCC is a silent place. Yet, they describe their experiences filled with the language of sound. Within a WCC, there is silence, but it is not without sound.
		Students describe their experience of visually taking in information using three visual terms—see, look, and watch. Each suggests a different level of focus and attention. To see is not only a way to receive information through my eyes, it also implies the sense-making process that occurs after the reception of the information—I understand.
		The article explores student experiences of their bodies in an asynchronous on-line learning environment, web-based computer conference (WCC), using hermeneutic phenomenology as a research method. Students in the study experience their bodies to be both here, seated in front of their computers, and there, on-line.

	The language of the somatic self
		We call this coherent communication "somatic language" or "the language of the somatic self." We organize and make sense out of our rational experience by using a verbal language and a corresponding verbal grammar.
		This is a language of immediate experience as compared to verbal language being a communication of abstractions.
		The language of the somatic self does not use or require verbal language although it interacts with it continually, like a music group improvising with a singer, or a horse and rider traversing a path in the forest.

	Near-death experience - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The phenomenology of an NDE usually includes physiological, psychological and transcendental factors (Parnia, Waller, Yeates and Fenwick, 2001) such as subjective impressions of being outside the physical body (an out-of-body experience), transcendence of ego and spatiotemporal boundaries, and other transcendental experiences (Lukoff, Lu and Turner, 1998; Greyson, 2003).
		Researchers have pointed out that the aftermath of the experience can be associated with both positive and healthy outcomes related to personality and appreciation for life, but also a spectrum of clinical problems in situations where the person has had difficulties with the experience (Orne, 1995).
		Regardless of the origin of the phenomenon, the subjective experience of NDEs is well-documented by the field of Near-Death Studies.

	Spencer J Perdriau - Biography - Subjective Experience
		Normally we take "subjective" to mean what we think and feel in our mind and body; similarly, "objective" means what happens outside the boundary of our body and what we can not experience in our mind.
		And for all their amazing abilities, they still are aware of the normal distinction between subjective and objective, and they consistently honour that distinction for the benefit of those who still take the "objective" as being something wholly outside of themselves.
		As a student reaches advanced levels of spiritual realisation it regularly happens that he or she finds the "subjective" expanding to include parts of the "objective".

	Basal Body Temperature Method
		Like the rhythm method, the body temperature method attempts to pin point the time of the month when ovulation is taking place.
		Some women don't experience any significant rise in body temperature during ovulation while others may not experience any change at all.
		This can be calculated because the body temperature rises after ovulation and stays higher until menstruation.

	Emotions
		Out of a total of 660 experiences submitted to the website, 318 of these experiences met the research definition of NDE as defined as, "A lucid experience associated with perceived consciousness apart from the body occurring at the time of actual or threatened imminent death" (Long).
		The number one mentioned emotion during the experience is the peace and calm that 40% of experiencers felt.
		She categorized emotions by the cause, the function served, the role of the body in controlling the effects of the NDE, survival, and interpersonal relationships.

	New Worlds Article: Healing Body, Mind & Spirit
		But it wasn’t enough to just read about them and intellectually understand their principles—I had to get in there and actually experience the sensations of energy healing before my logical mind could be convinced that something was actually happening.
		Soon I was led to experience other forms of energy healing as well, and became trained in Healing Touch techniques, Bioenergy, Polarity Therapy, Reflective Healing and several others that focus on healing the physical body.
		At the same time, I was presented with opportunities to explore forms of healing that deal with the higher vibrational energy bodies in our aura.

	Modern Primitives and Body Modification
		Acceptable forms of body modifications are viewed as triggered by aspirations to conform to a mainstream bodily ideal, whereas controversial ones are seen as consciously transgressing established norm, breaking boundaries, and creating new possibilities through the revolution/evolution/devolution of the human form and experience.
		Their body modifying practices, as suggested by the term itself, are performed on the body and their experience is felt though the body, generally in the form of pain.
		Considering first the construction of physical pain and the body in EuroAmerican discourse, in the contexts of Christianity and science in specific, I will discuss the extent to which modern primitives, in their controversial practices of body modification, can be perceived as rejecting accepted categories and constituting resistance to cultural hegemony.

	Buddhism and Science
		Observations on OBE (Out of Body Experience) and NDE (Near Death Experience) show that while the body is in an anaesthetized or inactive state consciousness can remain disembodied, observe events from outside the body and later relocalize in the brain.
		After the body renormalizes the person can relate what his consciousness observed and heard from an out of body location while the body was inactive.
		Psychologists often speak of the mind and the body as two separate entities for convenience, but most acknowledge that they are intimately entwined.
