For those that are new to astral projecting, there can be a number of stumbling blocks that you need to overcome before you can successfully astral project. First you need to understand that you already have the ability, everyone does. So this isn’t about trying to learn something new, or doing something that isn’t natural. 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 just have to practice. The same holds true for astral projecting.
The biggest problem which many face as they learn astral projecting is learning to relax fully. To astral project, you have to be able to totally relax your body and your mind. There are a lot of different ways which you can relax. These methods include muscle relaxation and breathing techniques.
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 dont want it to be so dark that you cant see anything with your eyes open, but it should be dark enough that no light penetrates through when you close them.
*Orient your body on a north-south axis. Your head should be towards the north. If you are unsure how to position yourself, use the sun as your guide.
*While you practice astral projecting, make sure that the clothes you wear keep you warm, but are comfortable and loosely fitting.
*Make sure that you have a place which is quiet and where you will not be distracted as you practice your astral projecting.
*Practice your relaxation techniques. You need to be totally relaxed in order to astral project.
*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.
*Practice your breathing techniques and relax.
*While you relax yourself with your breathing techniques, start focusing on the blackness in front of you.
*Next, concentrate on a point about one foot away from your forehead. Once you manage to do this, switch your focus to a point about six feet away.
*Now you want to make a 90 degree angle that goes from your six foot away focus up so that you are drawing an imaginary line that runs parallel to you body.
By following these tips, youll be well prepared for astral projecting. In order to get the best results from astral projection, you need to be in full control mentally. Your astral body may wander off randomly otherwise, which is a waste of your efforts. You can go anywhere and do anything when you are astral projecting, so make sure to think of where youd like to go and what youd like to do.
There are some astral projecting practitioners that are able to talk with loved ones they have lost. There are others that take part in activities that they are not able to do in the physical realm of reality. Contrary to what you may think, you have done this already. Now you need to have control over what is happening. Those dreams that you wake up and remember really well were actually astral traveling. Now it is time for you to learn to do it intentionally to reap the benefits of what astral projecting can do for you.
