This morning as I was getting back to sleep after waking up briefly, I felt this odd shift in my mind as I drifted off... I've had this a few times in the past, but it never felt quite like this.  

What happens is that sometimes when I'm falling asleep I can sense it - but this time, it was like being sucked into a television set for just a few moments... I was completely aware, visually, of the moment when my body would fall asleep... I had an image in my head of a cartoon character on a cloud (sometimes I visualize to help me sleep), and the figure in darkness morphed into big bright blue sky with the cloud shifting to the right and moving downwards as if I were progressively floating above it.  It was odd because I could feel my hands shaking... my concentration broke becuase of my hands and then the image disappeared and I woke up (paralyzed for just a moment until I wiggled out of it).  This time around, I noticed an intense feeling in my head (near the eyes) while things "shifted".

It was familiar as I've been in that state before, but it was a lot more intense and vivid this time around.  Does this sound familiar to anyone?  

do you have more out of body experiences sketcher? theres a little energy portal, some call the 3rd eye. I have left my body thru this portal between the eyes and suspect that's why you felt something happening there. you are an energy body in truth.

If I had any true OBEs I don't remember them... I never really experimented with it.  I'd often just experience what I considered hallucinations while catching myself falling asleep - I'd experience sleep paralysis and then i'd start to sense other things around me, or touching me.  

It may have just been my mind playing tricks on me but it's never felt that powerful before.  What I was seeing didn't seem to make much sense, though.  What I was seeing and feeling seemed way too clear to be normal.  When I could sense my hands shaking, it felt like they were shaking on another plane and I had to rush back because it freaked me out.

I know it's scarey when you first start having these experiences, I'd just like to say nothing can hurt you out there. I've been doing it for some time and it's scarey at first, but u can begin to trust it after awhile to see you are safe. later on you can find some logic, but not at first. wishing you all the best and happy holidays!
