What is the history of astral projection?

From what I understand, the practice of astral projection originated thousands of years ago, in the mountains of Asia. It has been a meditation practiced throughout history, but has become particularly prominent in recent years. As to whether or not astral projection is truly an out-of-body trip I cannot say. I have had a few experiences that I believe are similar to, if not the same as what many occult people refer to as "astral projection", but I honestly cannot prove whether the projection was all in my mind or not.
