Astral Projection is when your soul (spirit) exits your body (by your doing). What I mean by "your doing" is, when your body is asleep (relaxation is the key) and your mind is awake, you spirit will start detaching itself from your physical body. In this I will teach you step by step on how to enter and exit the " Astral Plane ". Remember that your first time trying this it will be hard and will probably not work, but that doesn't mean you don't try again, you should keep trying until you do it.
Comfort/Meditation- Some people are under the assumption that you have to meditate in " Lotus Position " this is not true, meditation happens when you are comfortable, this means you can lay on your bed, couch, floor..ect, all that matters is that you are comfortable. This technique also plays a huge roll in " Astral Projection ". Relaxation must be preformed, this happens when you stretch your muscles and then release them.
Breathing- Another important part of " Astral Projecting " is breathing . Not just breathing " Even Breathing ". This can happen by counting to either 2 or 10 (Inhale) and 2 or 10 (Exhale). This allows you to go into further relaxation.
Imagination/Inner Voice- Okay some people misconceive that when you are told to quiet your " Inner Voice " that means to quiet you " Imagination " that isn't true. Yes you must push aside your inner voice, but you must imagine, otherwise your mind will fall asleep. If people tell you don't have do either, then they have obviously not mastered or tempted " Astral Projection ".
Your Body Chemical- I am now going into a sort of health related subject. When you relax (especially during day). Your body will send a chemical that will make your body want to move, you must completely be still in order to successfully do " Astral Projection ".
Exiting Your Body- Before your soul (spirit) exits your body, you will start feel vibrations (some people claim to hear buzzing in their ears). Then then they will start feeling their body detach, I do not know how to explain the feeling.
Astral Plane- Some people say the " Astral Plane " is a soul ridden place, some say it's like Earth, just spirit view. They are both right, but they are also wrong, the " Astral Realm " is filled with many planes, some not even physically real. You soul can travel to places humans don't even know of.
The Cord- Some people ask "How does our soul not wander to Heaven or Hell?" well again Heaven and Hell are both apart of a religious belief. Not everyone believe in it. Well how our souls do not wander off is because our souls are connected to our bodies. This connection is by a cord. It is also called the " Silver Cord " this allows you to go anywhere and be able to return to your body.
The Return- After a while you will want to go back into your physical body, well in this case you let the " Silver Cord " drag you back to you body, but when you do get back slowly move your body one muscle at a time.
Remember again this will probably not happen the first time, please remember beginners that I recommend not leaving the room where your body is, the first time you successfully Astral Project.
