The illusion that your mind escapes your body and/or visits other planes of existence etc. It has been replicated successfully in lab conditions many times over and is proven to be just an illusion.

If anything call it https://www.sleepfoundation.org/how-sleep-works/hypnagogic-h... but not "illusion".
"Hallucination" is a judgmental term; it may be appropriate when it is involuntary, or what you see is harmful. People with schizophrenia have hallucinations, and (in all cases I have known personally) suffer for it. Thus, "hallucinogen" is a judgmental term about a chemical, where people taking one for the beneficial effects call it an entheogen.
I’m not clear why you linked it, honestly. I fail to understand the jump from “astral projection” to “hypnagogic hallucinations”.
Was your intent to just say that sometimes the medical profession uses the word “hallucination”? That doesn’t give the word positive connotations, especially with laypersons.
