Why Everyone Should Know How To Astral Project

Astral projection is an ability that everyone has, whether they know it or not. Many people actually do it while sleeping, they are just not aware of it. If you want to learn to astral project, what you are actually learning is how to consciously do this so you can control where you go and what you do. Assuming you already know what your astral body is and what the astral plane is, let's learn a few different techniques that will help you astral project. When you astral project, you experience something extremely personal. Because of this, it is very important that you learn which techniques work best for you. This first method is easy for most people, and you do it just as you are getting ready to fall asleep. It is a very simple five step technique. *The first thing you want to do is get completely relaxed. You can't astral project unless you achieve a deep level of relaxation. Lie down in bed, and begin with your toes. Tense them up for a few moments, then consciously relax every muscle. Do the same thing to every muscle, working your way up your body until you finish with your head and face. This may feel unfamiliar at first, but you will soon get used to this method of relaxation. Your body may feel rather heavy. This is perfectly normal and nothing to worry about. *The next step is to take slow, deep breaths. You may want to try a meditation technique where you breathe in slowly and deeply, paying attention to the way it feels as the air comes into your lungs and moves through your body. Exhale slowly and completely, again paying attention to how it feels for the air to leave your body. Imagine all the tension leaving your body with each exhale. It is very important not to fall asleep. If you feel yourself drifting, focus on your forehead, right in the center. *For step three, evaluate how your body feels. Is it heavy? Imagine your body is a lump of clay that does not move easily. Now, think of your astral body it feels so light. It is weightless floating free. Close your eyes and envision your astral self. It feels so light it could float easily like bubbles or feathers carried by a breeze. The contrast is the physical body feels very heavy, while the astral body feels light as a feather. *This is the point when many people who prefer this astral projection technique say that they can see the dark room through their closed eyelids. They describe the room as being full of purple light. If you achieve this step, focus on the ceiling light. *For the fifth step, imagine that you are pulling the ceiling light toward you. As you pull on the light, you will most likely feel like you are floating. It is very important to remain awake. Now that you are aware of the floating sensation, you may be able to look down on your sleeping physical body on the bed. Wow you just had a successful astral projection session! Now you can begin astral traveling. If this method did not work well for you, try out the next one. This method is called gazing. Try this at bedtime. You need something to focus on, such as a picture, the moon, a crystal, or some other object. Now that you have your object, place it so you can see it easily when you are lying in bed. Focus on this object. As you continue to stare at it, you should feel your eyes getting heavy. Even though they get heavy, keep staring at the object. While your eyes will eventually close, you should still be able to see the object. As you continue to stare, you may feel like you want to sit up or even stand. As this happens, do not be surprised if you still see your physical body lying on the bed, asleep. If these techniques don't work for you the first couple of times, don't get discouraged. Try them again. If they still don't work, there are other methods to try. It is imperative that you don't get frustrated. This will only cause anxiety and make it more difficult to relax completely so you can achieve a successful astral projection. In fact it is vital you understand that whatever tools and techniques you try, the main stumbling block to successful astral projection is actually your own subconscious mind. You need to reassure your subconscious mind that it is perfectly okay for your spiritual body to leave your physical body. One way you can do this is by using affirmations. Once your subconscious mind understands this, then you will find astral projection easy! There are a few short cuts you may try to help you achieve astral projection quickly. If you don't use them, it may take a long time to create the proper state of mind for it to happen. If you do use them, you may find yourself successfully astral projecting after your very first try. Hypnosis is a very good way to help you fully relax. If you use a quality guided hypnosis recording, it can also relieve you of any stress you may feel about forgetting one of the steps. A good recording will guide you right through, letting you relax and listen. There have also been recent developments in sound technology with something called 'binaural beats' where different sound frequencies are played in each ear. This very quickly puts you into the deeply relaxed meditative state required for successful astral projection. Astral projection is not as hard as many people think it is. Everyone is born with the natural ability to do this, and these tools and techniques help you develop this talent to its full ability. Give them a try and see what works best for you.
