Astral Travel

The last time you were having a dream where you were flying, you were experiencing what astral travel was like. Astral travel is the way the astral body moves about in the astral plane, and it does so by flying. You simply think about where it is you want to go and what it is you want and once your physical mind and body are asleep the subconscious mind and astral body are off to fulfill your desires.

Many people confuse actual astral travel with dreaming. This is not to say that each and every dream a person has is an astral travel adventure. When you first go to sleep and begin to dream it is your minds way of working through the events of your day. This is when the mind is trying to work out various stresses or events that were not settled while you were awake. This helps to keep you sane. Few of those dreams are remembered, and if they are remembered it is only bits and fragments.

The dreams that you wake up and remember really well are actual astral travel experiences. It is highly recommended that you keep a journal of these dreams. Whether you wake up in the middle of the night or first thing in the morning you should write down what it is you remember. Granted at first, what you remember may not make much sense at first. However, it will all come together later down the road.

Just as those first dreams you have at night help your mind relieve stress and work through the issues of the day in order to keep you sane, astral travel has benefits as well. Which is why it is important that you keep track of those dreams that you remember very well. It is these experiences that can help you, the benefits will vary by the individual and that is because each astral travel experience is unique to the individual.

Generally speaking though, benefits to experiencing astral travel and keeping track of your experiences can include a deepening of spirituality. When we say this, what we are referring to is a deeper connection to the soul and the world around you. This promotes inner peace and feelings of well being. Another benefit to astral travel is that it can increase memory and creativity. This is because astral travel sparks activity in parts of the brain that we typically do not use.

A third benefit to astral travel is that it can also increase your psychic abilities. Many people who practice astral travel report having an increased ability to sense spirits, use of telepathy and precognition. This is due to the fact that when you astral project and astral travel you are taping into spiritual energies that you ignored before. Even skeptics who didn’t believe that astral projection and astral travel were real experienced that ability to see and read peoples’ auras.

Finally, a fourth benefit that most people enjoy is the pure and simple excitement and adventure that comes with astral travel. The ability to go wherever it is they want to go and do what they want it is a freeing experience.

With all of these benefits to improve one’s life, why aren’t more people practicing astral travel. The answer is that most people are under the false assumption that astral travel and astral projection are only for a gifted few. When the fact is that every person that is alive today has the ability to astral project. It is a safe bet that you have astral traveled and not even realized that you have done it. Remember in the beginning you were encouraged to remember the last time you dreamt that you were flying, that was an astral travel experience.

The key to reaping the benefits of this experience is for you to do it consciously, which means nothing more then you need to be aware that you are doing it and be able to control what your astral body is doing. There are techniques that you can learn on your own through books and videos created by people who practice astral travel. Learning to astral project is not as difficult as people want to believe that it is. This is a nature ability that you were born with, you just forgot how to use it and need to fine tune your ability.
