Am I doing it right?

[magic]

I´ve tried using new to raise energy and to increase my chances to have an OBE.
I feel something primary in the region below the belly, solar plexus and the heart, my muscles seem to wan´t to contract when I draw energy to these regions with my imaginary hands. Is this the chakras that I´m feeling or is it just the muscles?

I can't say for sure that you were feeling chakras, but I can say that if you give yourself some time and practice, everything will become more clear. You'll get used to chakra feelings, and you'll get used to not tensing your muscles during energy sessions.

It might be instinctive to clench the muscles... doesn't necessarily mean energy moving though. Your body should actually be more relaxed. Clenching is great, because then you can be aware of what clenching is, and then totally release more fully than trying to relax it from a normal position, because there is more contrast. Clenching also builds muscle :D

Still, once you are aware of the spot and the muscle fibre and connective tissue from the clenching, try to relax and retain the feeling.
