out of body practice

In general most people at some time or another in their lives have heard about astral projection. They may have learned about it from a book, movie, or a friend that is into it.

However, astral projection isn’t something which only happens in fictional entertainment it’s very real and it is something which every man and woman has the capacity to do. You have almost certainly done it yourself, though you may not have known that this is what you were doing.

But what is astral projection, exactly? This is the ability to leave one’s physical body this is something which often happens while we are sleeping.

While sleeping the physical mind is resting and the subconscious mind takes control. A person astral projects while this is happening. However, the majority may never remember astral projecting.

A person goes wherever they want to when they astral project. If you were to try to remember your childhood, you might recall doing this at night when you went to sleep. As you grew older, you likely began to forget. Because there is no such thing as time or distance in astral projection, its possible to go just about anywhere.

When you are asleep, only your physical body is asleep. Your astral body is able to travel.

This brings up the next thing to talk about, what exactly the astral body is. The astral body actually is an invisible copy of your body, this is most commonly called the ethereal body. It is the center of our desires and feelings. Why is it that the astral body does not just leave and not return? Your astral body is actually connected to your physical body by a silver cord.

The silver cord is a term used to describe the attachment of the astral body to that of the physical body. This cord cannot be cut and it cannot be detached except in the moment of death when the spirit finally leaves the physical body as a permanent disconnection. It is the silver cord, which allows the astral body to maintain contact and return to the physical body.

Where is it that your astral body goes in its travels? Your astral body goes to the astral plane, a non-physical duplicate of the physical universe. The astral plane is thought to operate at a different frequency than our own, some saying that it is an alternate universe. Most agree that the astral plane is not a single monolithic place, however.

After learning this information, it is only natural to start to wonder if there are any dangers to astral project. The answer is not as simple as a straightforward yes or no. While astral projection is something that everyone is capable of doing and that the astral body is attached to the physical body by a tie that can only be broken by death there is still a need to remain conscience of what is going on while astral projecting and be in a state to maintain that frame of mind.

The greatest danger when astral projecting comes with the mind is not carefully prepared or under the influence of thought and perception, altering substances such as drugs or alcohol. There are a number of levels to the astral plane. The lower levels are not considered places to visit and are often considered to be unsafe. It is these levels that are easiest to access when under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

For this reason, it is important that you prepare ahead of time by knowing where you are going and what you plan to do. Your goal is to be a conscious participant in astral projection. You will want to have complete control over the actions of your astral body. This control is directed by your thoughts.

With the correct preparation astral projection can be done by you quickly.

The method of preparation varies depending on the professional consulted. However, there are a number of, at home, training programs that provide individuals with the opportunity to learn how to control the experience and ultimately obtain both more enjoyment and benefit from astral projecting.

There are also a number of books and online resources available. For example, by listening to a quality astral projection hypnosis recording, you can enter the right state of mind.

These can enhance your relaxation and take you through the variety of stages. You can repeatedly play these recordings over again until your subconscious mind understands the message that it is fine for you to leave your body. They are most beneficial.

Sound technology can also be helpful. There is a technology known as binaural beats, which plays a variety of frequencies in each ear. These frequencies are slightly different and as a result relax the body quickly. This places the mind into a deep meditation making it easier to astral project.

Don’t fret if you are unsuccessful the first few times you astral project. It takes practice to accomplish this.

It is not something you must acquire, since we are all capable of doing it. However, you need to fine-tune your natural ability since you have forgotten it.

Still skeptical? Think back to a time when you dreamed you were flying, or felt a sensation of falling. The flying sensation was your astral body moving through the astral planes. The feeling of falling was when you felt your astral body returning to your physical body.

Astral projection is a talent all of us have; all you need to do is practice to develop it.
