Out Of Body Experience Understood
An out of body experience is an interesting phenomenon that people often experience at the time of impending death but happens at other times as well. Sometimes referred to an OBE, this experience has been scientifically studied and validated. An OBE is a sensation of floating outside of your body while you are still aware of your surroundings.
There is also a phenomenon known as astral projection and this is when your physical body is being observed by you from outside of your body, this is also an out of body experience. This is a real experience and one that should not be ignored. There have been many people that were on the verge of dying that have come back to share their experiences, they have been able to tell other's in the room what was going on even though medically speaking the were non-responsive.
Astral travel used to be referred to as 'spirit walking.' It was in 1943 that the term out of body experience started being used to take away from the former more belief centered term. To this day scientists are still doing research on the phenomena, as they do not consider it to be a made up event.
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.
Sometimes a person will undergo an OBE spontaneously and other times they are brought on by some kind of physical or mental trauma, if the body is in a coma or trance, or with the use of psychedelic drugs.
You will come across many places online that promise you the thrills of astral projection and travel. Really, it's not difficult to do if you know how to go about it the right way. Astral projection is said to be a completely natural process that was used frequently be the ancients. Sadly, many of their descendents have forgotten all about the lost art of astral projection. You may find it hard to believe, but a high level of spiritual or mental power is not necessary in order to successfully have an out of body experience.
This does not mean that a person doesn't have to concentrate on one point. Understand that your conscious mind is going to hold you back out of fear. The fear that once your astral body is out it won't be able to get back in, hence leaving you an empty shell. This fear is a subconscious fear.
It is believed that a person's astral body is able to leave the physical body for a short time. If a person truly believes that he can project the astral body from the physical body, he is on his way to succeeding. This is because he has already suggested himself into allowing his conscious mind to completely 'let go'. However, if there is even a tiny bit of fear that the astral body will escape from the physical body and leave him in a state of limbo, he should not try this kind of experiment.
If you are confident in your beliefs, then you must silence your mind with methods like self hypnosis and meditation so you can leave your body. Think positive thoughts about having an out of body experience and tell yourself that you will astral travel. Once your thoughts are in the right place, your mind will take over and be receptive to astral projection.
Find a place where you won't be disturbed and lie down with your arms at your sides. Give yourself time to let your aura harmonize with the aura of Mother Nature. Begin to breath deeply and focus on relaxing your body in a way that will allow your astral body to venture forth to explore all the dimensions that are outside of your mental and physical knowledge. You will feel your body begin to tingle. Don't try to stop this sensation, but encourage it. If any conscious thoughts pop up in your mind, push them aside and focus on breathing gently and deeply.
The first thing you will notice is that you feel vibrations and your heart rate will increase. This is the way that most out of the body experiences begin. Let the vibrations envelope you, let them take over your body and your soul. Very soon you are going to experience your astral body leaving the physical body.
Many people have developed the ability to astral travel. Some of them report that the out of body experience is cut short because of their fear of getting to far away from the physical body. Others report they visit other realms where they undergo experiences that are so real they are certain they are not dreaming. You can learn how to astral travel just like humans have done throughout history, it all starts with the belief that you can.
