Experience description:

I was lying in my bed awake for around 3 hours. During this time I thought about my life and came to the conclusion, that there was nothing whatsoever I was craving for. Everything felt perfect as it was, even the greatest conflicts on this earth. A little bit after 4 o'clock at night I couldn't move any more, but was still completely awake. Then it felt as if I was drifting towards the ceiling, hovering above my body for a couple of seconds. It felt completely peaceful. When I realized that I wasn't staying in my body, I thought I was going to die. In a split of a second I was back in my body, screaming on top of my lungs in the way a baby after birth would do. I was fighting for every breath and felt glad for every beat my heart made.
