A few times. Mostly for iniation of journey type workings though a couple times of shadow work.

For journey work its been blocking out visual and audio influences as much as possible. Then for me once I had become detached it was easier to project outward and step into the tree or descend into the earth.

For shadow work I've used the above method but also utilized binding. Though I admit this one has to be done very carefully less you injure yourself. If your going to go into extreme's think of bound arms and legs then wrapped tightly in blankets or such. I would highly recommend an aide or companion for any of these as they really have to pay close attention to ensure you do not harm yourself.



With shadow work it's also the notion of bind yourself bind your shadow's ability to use them.

Sensory deprivation can be strange as all you hear is your blood in your ears and the songs of your head. If you have any degree of tenitis (sp) then you can't really tune it out but have to push through it which can be a test of itself.
