The Seven Techniques of Astral Projecting
For those that are new to astral projecting, there can be a number of stumbling blocks that you need to overcome to successfully astral project. First you need to understand that you have the ability, everyone does. So this isn’t about trying to learn something new, or force something that isn’t nature. Look at it as something that you have to fine tune, like roller skating, cartwheels, riding a bike. You never forget how to do these activities, when you haven’t done them in a long time you do have to practice. The same holds true for astral projecting.
One major stumbling block that many people encounter is relaxation. When learning astral projecting the mind and the body have to be deeply relaxed. This can take some practice, but there are many relaxation techniques that you can employ to help your mind and body relax. There are breathing techniques and muscle relaxation techniques that you can try.
Naturally though if the environment is not conducive to promoting a relaxed environment then your astral projection session is not going to go as smoothly or be as successful as you would like it to be. Here are a number of tips that you can follow to help get the most out of your preparation.
*Start by removing any tight, restrictive clothing and any jewelry. Some people even find taking off their clothes to be helpful when astral projecting, but whatever works for you is the right way to go.
*It is easiest to practice astral projecting in a dark room. You don’t want it to be so dark that you can’t see anything with your eyes open, but it should be dark enough that no light penetrates through when you close them.
*With your head pointed north, lie down along a north-south axis. This should be easy to figure out with the sun rising in the east and setting in the west. So if our of your bedroom window you can see the sunset that means you need to be laying along the window, not with your head or feet pointing towards the window.
*When you are astral projecting, your clothes should be loose and comfortable, but should also keep you warm.
*You should be doing this at a time when you are going to be free from distraction. Which means that you want a noise free place and time to practice your astral projecting.
*Start by using relaxation techniques which get the best results for you. You need to be able to relax completely, so this is very important.
*Start giving yourself mental suggestions that will help you be able to remember what is happening during your session. Keeping a pen and paper close by is helpful, so that as soon as you finish your astral travels you can write down what you remember. Remembering can be enhanced by saying to yourself five times, “I will remember.”
*Use breathing techniques to bring yourself into a relaxed state.
*As you are breathing focus on the blackness in front of you.
*Start to focus on a point which is about one foot away from your forehead. Once you have done this, move your focus to a point about six feet away.
*Imagine a line which runs at a ninety degree angle from this point six feet away to your body.
Using these tips will allow you to prepare for astral projecting. Remember that to get the best results you need to be in full mental control. If you do not have this control,. Your astral body will just drift directionless. You can do anything and go anywhere when you are astral projecting, so make the most of this amazing ability!
