The next day she told him about what she saw, and he was completely astounded. She saw it all right. And the timing of when he felt her matched too.

The fear is though, is mum is adamant she didn't "do things right." As in, she never contacted any spirit guide, she just sort of wandered off, leaving her body unprotected and open to attack. So she never, ever tried to AP again because of the whole fear of attack, but also for fear of getting lost, since she wandered without a guide.
Everything I have read on AP, which has been through some books and a lot on the internet, says you have a permanent connection to your physical body, which you may see as a silvery cord or it might not be visible... and also that this connection will allow you to know if there is any danger back at your physical body and return to it instantly. Although there are other precautions to take, such as casting a circle of protection around your physical body before you AP.
