Have you heard of Out-of-Body Experiences, what does that mean:

An out-of-body experience is a phenomenon where an individual feels as though their consciousness or awareness is separate from their physical body. During an OBE, people often describe the sensation of floating above their own body, viewing themselves and their surroundings from a different perspective.

These experiences can vary widely in intensity and detail. Some individuals report feeling a strong sense of detachment from their physical body, while others describe vivid and realistic sensations of floating, flying, or moving through different environments. OBEs can be spontaneous occurrences, but they can also be induced through various techniques, meditation practices, or altered states of consciousness.

OBEs are often associated with near-death experiences (NDEs), during which individuals claim to have left their bodies and had various otherworldly or spiritual encounters. These experiences have been of interest to researchers, psychologists, and those exploring topics related to consciousness and the nature of reality.

It’s important to note that while OBEs are often reported, they remain a topic of debate and skepticism within the scientific community. Some explanations for OBEs include psychological factors, altered brain states, and the possibility that these experiences may be constructs of the mind rather than actual separations of consciousness from the body.
