A Journey To The Astral Plane - Out Of Body Experience
An out of body experience or OBE happens when an individual has the sensation of floating outside of the body. This is a scientifically proven occurrence that usually takes place if a person is near death.
The experience of viewing your physical body from sphere that is outside of your body is known as both an out of body experience and an astral projection. Many people that were thought to be close to death have come back from deaths' door and are able to recount their experience of seeing their physical body lying motionless in a room. These individuals can often describe all the activities taking place in the room during that time.
In years gone by, the out of body experience was called spirit walking. Reference has been made to this phenomenon throughout human history. Today it has become the subject of scientific study and a matter of interest for many ordinary individuals.
Nearly one in every ten people have gone through an experience like this at one point in the lives. Because the number of individuals that have experienced an OBE, this cannot be looked at with skepticism.
A person does not have to be near death to have an out of body experience. There are times that this can happen spontaneously. There are also times that an out of the body experience can be brought on by a mental or physical trauma. As well as when a person has used drugs or slipped into a coma.
There are numerous sites on the internet that promise you astral projection and travel joys. Astral projection is rather easy if you learn the right way to do it. It has been said that astral projection is a natural process that has been used since ancient times. The sad part is that many people have forgotten how to do it. The plus is that you do not need to have a high level of spirituality or spiritual power to have an out of body experience and you don't have to have a high level of mental power either.
However, you do have to possess the ability to completely focus on just one point. If the conscious mind holds you back because it fears that if you project yourself from your body, you won't be able to come back. It is this subconscious fear that will prevent you from experiencing astral travel and projection.
If you believe in the fact that your astral body can leave the physical body for a while and still make it back then astral travel will be easy. However for those that have even the slightest bit of doubt it is recommended that they not attempt to do any sort of out of the body experience.
However, if you are able to silence your mind, and believe that your astral body will return to your physical body you can astral travel. Any purposeful (done on purpose)out of the body experience starts with a mediation or self hypnosis. You have to start thinking positively by telling yourself that you want to have an out of the body experience. When the mind takes over you are will notice that you are more open to the thought of astral travel.
Set aside a time when you will not be disturbed. Stretch out and make yourself comfortable. Place your arms at your side. Take slow deep breaths and work on total relaxation of your physical body. When your physical body and mind are in a state of deep relaxation, your astral body can depart and explore new dimensions of reality that exist beyond your present mental and physical awareness. As it prepares to leave for an out of body experience, you will notice that your body begins to tingle. Don't fight this sensation, but encourage it. Ignore any conscious thoughts you may have and focus only on taking gentle deep breaths.
Normally an out of body experience begins with vibrations and a rapid heartbeat. Allow these vibrations to completely engulf you. Make sure you remain calm. Don't allow yourself to become over excited, but the vibrations take over your body, soul, and heart. Before long you find that you have left your physical body and are beginning an exciting astral journey.
For some people, their astral journey ended because a fear overcame them that their astral body was not going to be able to make it back because it was getting to far away. They have also stated that then knew that they weren't dreaming because they knew that they were existing in another realm having experiences there. The key to an out of body experience such as astral travel or projection is believing that you can do it and believing that your astral body will make it back.
