discorporated
Shed physical form
Discorporated means separated from or deprived of a physical body.
The term appears in supernatural and science fiction contexts for spirits, ghosts, or consciousness existing without corporeal form: The discorporated soul wandered the halls of its former home.
It can also describe the process of leaving one's body: After the accident, she felt strangely discorporated, watching the scene from above.
