Due to various events occurring all at once, I have been incredibly stressed out lately - to the point where eating causes discomfort, which I'm addressing with herbs and meditation - but I'm just curious how others have seen stress effect (or not) their OBE efforts.

Even though I'm raising energy even more than before, I can't seem to generate as much of the etheric/subtle, and while I can feel a low level ...umm, gathering of energy there around my body, it is nothing like what I've been able to do previously. Seems the ship does not want to leave the port during stormy times!

My sense is that I'm simply using so much energy processing the stress on my mind/body, that there simply isn't enough to go around? I have more thoughts, but I'd love to have a conversation with others so I'll save them for now.

So how have any of you seen stress effects your OBE efforts, or not? (Or your energy or how you run it.)

(and mods, I hope this is the right section?)
