Out-of-Body Experience
An Out-of-Body Experience (OBE) is a phenomenon where a person feels as though they are observing their physical body from a distance. This experience can occur during various situations, such as near-death experiences, extreme stress, or deep meditation. People often report a sensation of floating above their bodies and may describe seeing their surroundings from a different perspective.
Research into OBEs suggests they may be linked to brain activity, particularly in areas responsible for spatial awareness and self-perception. While some individuals interpret OBEs as spiritual or mystical experiences, scientific explanations often focus on neurological and psychological factors that contribute to this unique sensation.
