A Natural Way To Astral Project

By David Groomes

Every one of us already has the ability to astral project. Many people astral project without being aware of it. However, it is learning to control the experience while astral projecting which is important and is what we will be discussing here.

You probably already know about the astral body and the astral plane, so we'll jump right into techniques which can assist you in your efforts to learn how to astral project. Different people do better using different methods, so you'll probably want to try out a few until you hit on one which gets good results for you.

One technique you can try when you're lying in bed before you sleep follows. There are five steps to follow in this technique.

*First; Relax your entire body completely. The best way to do this is to start with your toes and work your way upwards, tensing and then relaxing each part of your body. You'll become deeply relaxed as you do this and your body may feel extremely heavy; this is perfectly normal.

*Second; Breathe slowly and deeply. This is something which is done while meditating. Focus on the sensation of the air moving through your lungs. Exhale as slowly as you inhale, imagining your stress floating away with each exhalation. Try not to fall asleep as you do this, though you may need to try this a few times before you can remain awake during this step.

*Third; Concentrate on the feeling of your body's total relaxation. Think of it as a stone or a lump of earth; something which is heavy and immobile. Now refocus your attention to your astral body; think about how light it feels, weightless in fact. Close your eyes and visualize your astral body floating away on the breeze.

*Fourth; Now you may have the experience of being able to see perfectly well in your darkened room which should now be illuminated by a purple light; even though your eyes are closed! Turn your attention to the light which is coming from your ceiling.

*Fifth; Try to visualize pulling this light to your astral body. You'll feel like you're floating; this is your astral body floating above your physical body. Just look down and you'll be able to see your bed with your physical body at rest below.

If you've made it this far successfully, you are astral projecting and can begin on your astral travels. If this method doesn't work for you, however, there is another technique which many find useful.

This technique can help you as you learn to astral project. This is called the gazing method and it's quite simple. You need to choose something to focus your attention on; it doesn't really matter what it is, just something which is visible from your bed.

With this object in your line of sight, lie in bed and focus on it. Even as your eyes begin to feel heavy, continue to focus on the object, staring at it. Eventually you won't be able to keep your eyes open, but you should be able to see it even now with your eyes closed. You might feel like sitting or standing, so go ahead; but don't panic when you see your sleeping physical body lying in bed!

Don't give up if you don't succeed the first time you try these techniques. Practice makes perfect and if you just aren't having luck with these methods, there are plenty of others you can try. Just stick with it and be patient and you'll learn how to astral project sooner than you think.

What's really important isn't how you get there, but that you can overcome your subconscious skepticism about astral projection. You have to repeat to your subconscious that there's nothing to worry about and it's OK for your astral body to leave on its travels. You can use affirmations to communicate this to your subconscious.

There are plenty of techniques which can make it easier to astral project and you should use whatever works best for you.

Hypnosis is something which a lot of people find helps them to astral project. Especially for beginners, a guided hypnosis session can help. Having an expert there to tell you what's happening and what to do next at each step is valuable guidance.

New audio technologies called binaural beats can also help you learn to astral project. These specially designed recordings consist of slightly different frequencies played into each ear. The effect of these recordings is to place the listener into the meditative, deeply relaxed state where astral projection comes naturally.

It's really not that hard to learn how to astral project. It's simply a matter of practice. You already have this capacity, but you'll need to work at it to develop this skill. Just like learning to ride a bike, it's something you can already do, but some practice is needed to train yourself to do it well.
