“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now where the ego operates you will always find chemical repercussions; to some extent or another then the physical body will be involved. Deeper or less familiar portions of the self exist without a chemical manifestation. These usually take electromagnetic forms to some degree however.

Now certain chemical changes must come about in the physical organism before projection can occur. Were it not for these you would still be imprisoned within the corporeal image. You know that dreaming has definite chemical bases, that chemicals built up during periods of waking existence are released through dreams. Not only are they released but they form a propelling action that allows energy to flow in the opposite direction. As chemical reactions allow the body to utilize energy and form physical materializations, so the excess built up then becomes a propelling force, allowing action to flow in what you would term subjective directions.

I suggest a more thorough examination of your dreams here, for many of them contain such spontaneous projections. They are most apt to occur in the early hours, between 3 and 5 A.M. The body temperature drops at such times. Five in the afternoon is also beneficial from this standpoint. The drinking of pure water also facilitates projection, although for obvious reasons the bladder must be empty.

The mirror in your bedroom is an excellent aid, incidentally. Certain temperature variations are also helpful. A cool body temperature for example, and the outside temperature, or rather the room temperature, between 73.8 and 75.9 or .10. High humidity is poor.

Now this has to do with the electrical currents about the skin, and sweat on the body. Also with saline composition of the body at various times of the year.
