The Surprising Benefits of Astral Projection (and how to get started)

through and beyond the self beyond limitations the gentleman said that we think we are and that we could be she said that it extends the limits of who we are and what we perceive to be reality, thus allowing us to know more and more I do as in Beverly's story and then there are three types and the exceptional experience relates to the evolutionary Obe. I coined this term from my research because there was something I discovered about all of them and that is that they happened at a certain time. in his life now there is something you should know about my research.

I studied normal, healthy people, so I didn't study people with mental health problems. They were just regular people who had

astral

projection

experiences. Evolutionary Obes happened at a crossroads in their lives, they needed to make a decision, they were excited about something, they felt stuck in some way, so my theory is that an Obe Evolutionary occurs when the psyche, psychic, Greek word for soul, needs to change and self-actualize and therefore it is almost as if the psyche makes a spontaneous out-of-body experience happen in order to self-realize the existence of a new sense of self. and open a new path towards that reality that reflects that self.

This is what we call an evolutionary upper body experience and this is what I teach in the search, the second one is provoked, whoever here has had a near-death experience, raise your hand, more people than I thought . I'm nodding like this and I'm actually getting chills in the moment looking at you because I know, I know, I know what the experience can, how it can impact you, it's radical, it's life changing, so a provoked out of body experience that we call forced is when body or mind is compromised in some way, whether you get hurt and have a near-death experience or through Fear Charlie, who just gave the talk, when he first

started

speaking he used to have stage fright and one time, in his first few talks he had stage fright and went out of his body, went like that for a few moments, whoa and came back down, so you can have them from a panic attack or as a side effect as a coping mechanism to deal with the situation you find yourself in and then self-initiated this is what we are going to learn on Friday in my two to four workshop self-initiated means that it happens voluntarily we use our intention to have one, but why would we want shamans, Buddhists and yogis to have been doing this?

For hundreds of years, the ancient Egyptians carved instructions about out-of-body experiences into the rock walls of the temple walls. The Greeks practiced or performed

astral

projection

s in the mysterious Elysian rituals that they used to initiate the highest order of people and there. It was this anthropological study that looked at this around the world, they looked at 60 cultures and said okay, of these 60 cultures, 90 said yes, we've heard about our body experiences, it's one thing like that, 90 percent 46 They said yes, and we have As a practice, we do this so that we can leave our body and cross the Himalayan mountains to reach the teachings of our teachers at the other end of the country that we cannot reach with the body and we bring that information from back to in our community we do this to go find where the buffalo have gone where the herds have gone so that we can return to our body and tell the hunters where to go and hunt the next day we do this so that we can manifest things to the existence receive guidance and help others we do this so that at the moment of death we can face the end of our life not only without fear but with joy imagine being able to face the end of your life with genuine joy they say we do this to wake up and Of course the CIA found out, right?

They said, "Oh, why is this happening here? They're doing all this crazy stuff, let's see if we can do it, let's see if it's real, so the CIA went and practiced this in From the late 1970s to the early 1980s they sent a team of their agents to the Monroe Institute, which is the institute of largest out-of-body experiences in the world. We actually partnered with them to do the search leads, so the things that I heard there that the hemising uh, the binaural beats were produced by the Monroe Institute, they went there, the CIA and wrote a report.

This is what they said in the report. Staying outside the body can be considered an extremely effective way to speed up. In the process of improving Consciousness and interacting with the Dimensions Beyond Time, they totally agreed that there are other dimensions; In fact, they based this on a theory called the Holographic Universe, which is no different than the simulation theory, if you know about that, and they said that these advanced states. from Altered Consciousness can allow you to travel anywhere instantly if you contact me I will send you this this is not a conspiracy theory you can download the report from their website so this is great and they made a movie. about this is called Men Who Stare at Goats, it's shepherds or a comedy so take it with a pinch of salt but it was based on this show called Stargate that they went on to do this so I'll leave it there because I said Lots of information, so I want to open it up to questions.

Who would like to ask a question? Is there something you feel? Oh my god, what the hell, yeah, oh, I'm so hi, hi, thank you, this is it. An interesting topic, coming from a country with a religious background, many people think and I don't think this is real, that's why I ask you that if you leave your body, maybe another Soul or entity can enter your body. Is that a real big question or not and I'm really glad she asked that because I imagine there are quite a few people thinking the same thing. I'm getting a lot of head shaking exactly so I call out your three irrational fears when people come over.

To do our body experience that I work with beginners, one is: Will they possess me? Will I be attacked by an entity while I am out of my body and return to my body? Oh, will I die a great death? The answer is no. All of those things though and you'll notice I never give a straight answer because I don't think there's a straight answer to everything, it depends on the perspective we're looking at it from. From a shamanic perspective, a Buddhist perspective, a neuroscience perspective or a psychology perspective, everyone will say different things and we don't know what the truth is, which is why I say explore for yourself and make your own decisions, but what I can definitely say. is that all the best teachers in the world, most of the ones I've interviewed, will say no, it's not possible and if you want a slightly more spiritual answer to that, the Buddhist view is that your karma connects you. with so much force to this body and to what you have to do in this life that it is not possible for you to simply do well.

I'm going to let this entity take over and go and do something that is so deeply rooted in the essence of the residue of your past lives that it is simply not possible, so I hope that offers some kind of answer, but if you have that concern and maybe your religion offers that perspective, there are many techniques that I teach, protection techniques that you can do beforehand. Does allowing those things not to happen make sense? Thank you, don't worry, yeah, waving your hand over there, hello, my name is fine, Ali, uh, it's taken me a long time to realize that sometimes I have maybe a tendency. get out of my body but do it in a very conscious way with the intention of doing it.

I feel like I hope this makes sense to you. I feel a kind of plug and when I am very conscious it feels like a small heart. attack so I get really scared and then I come right back so I've been trying to avoid it like when I went to study like Lucent dreaming I ended up in that store. Projection. I thought, yeah, I'll do it, I'll do it. instead, but whatever I'm conscious of doing it, I get scared when that happens, when I feel like it, I actually go right back, yeah, that's completely normal, oh my gosh, how many times I hear that in my workshop, so I just want to say.

You're not the only one this happens to. People come out and then get scared and then come back in. That's brilliant. Naturally you have that. It's really nice. It's quite rare. It's a fantastic thing to work with. um the second thing just to tell a story I was a consultant for uh behind your eyes which is a Netflix series that uses lucid dreaming in astral projection and I did a workshop with the cast and the main character who plays Eva had um I was quite surprised because she had an experience in the session, like I said, you know, for some people it can take two weeks to a month and she managed to get her energy head, her astral head, out of her body and as soon as it happened, it was.

We went and shot again because as soon as we get scared, scared or overly excited, you are back in your body, which is why I teach a mindfulness approach so that we can stay calm, be and accept everything that is there, surrender to Experiment and live with it, so I think if you just did a couple of techniques you could stop that fear because it is normal and it is what we call beginner's mind that I have applied since Buddhism when you become an advanced astral projector. We call it being a mature astral projector because we have acquired the mental qualities to be able to sustain the experience.

The fact that you are having them is fantastic. Are you coming to the workshop on Friday? Yes, incredible, I'm going to teach you. you are a technique where you can stay calm so you can enter any environment without worry ah let's equalize the sexes this gentleman points out okay continue then hello thank you for this my question is once You are an avid astral projector. This is how you can call the person How often do you ask this big question? Do you know what people go to? In fact, someone asked me last night. I was at a dinner party and they said, "Oh my God, did you come out of your body?" The whole time you're visiting here you go and I say no, no, I go out when I need to, if someone has done plant medicine or some intensive therapy like breath work, you don't go and do it all the time, right? you do it when you need it and you do it when there's a calling, so when I feel like there's a calling and I say, okay, I need guidance, I need a question, I need healing, then I'll go and I'll go out.

From the body experience, of course, sometimes it happens spontaneously and I want to mention if you've ever been close to sleep and

started

seeing crazy colors or patterns or felt vibrations or felt a little floaty at times. it can happen spontaneously because you reach the right conditions, the right altered state. I call this the sweet spot, so sometimes you don't even have to have an intention like the lady over there, it can happen too, so I just wanted to. to point it out in case they have felt that experience, it could show that they have the ability to do it naturally.

I hope this was helpful in some way, gentlemen, here with the yes, yes, hello, I actually did the astral projection mission. I started it. This lasted a couple of months ago but then in the second week I stopped and the reason is that I saw that when I was lying in my bed, I think it was also something related to the countdown. I saw these very strange shapes happen and it was like that. I'm scared that he stopped it and I don't know what's going on there, if this is like limitations coming up or yeah man yeah dude no I'm with you it's like this lady it's very normal so start could you begin?

As you enter this altered room, you begin to access and feel things that perhaps you would not feel in ordinary everyday Consciousness and therefore you may have a sense of presence, you may feel that your body weighs differently, very heavy or very heavy. light, different colors may appear. I know I have the ability to astral project because in the hypnagogic which is at the cusp of sleep I start to see purple and green circles, but sometimes you will see shadows coming in and out, sometimes I see faces, you can hear voices, music, singing something My students heard voices singing and one of my students heard a beautiful angelic song.

She knew she was in a different realm, but she couldn't see it, but she could feel it and sense it, and she didn't have a full-blown Obe. but she changed her career because of that experience and that wasn't even a full blown Obe, but she just knew she was in this heavenly realm and the eight just confirmed it, as we saw in the seven effects that increase your spiritual connection, so I would say it's normal, go ahead. Fizz is going to happen, you have to go into the unknown, yeah, we have to let go and go into the unknown, um, but the other thing and I like the fact that you said Frightening Shadows.

Is there the idea of ​​a guardian at the threshold? So when you first start, you may be tested. Crazy things can happen. Something may come with a voice, it may say a message and you'll wonder: what the hell is that? So, there is this idea. of a guardian at the threshold where you can be tested to see if you are ready to step into the unknown to overcome these fears and face these limitations, so I would say go ahead and surrenderbecause not everything seems what it seems, one of my friends. who is a master, he came out of his body and saw the shadow walk towards him, so he was in a full blown Obe, the shadow person walks towards him, stands up and says, oh my god, what is this?

But he is a mature astral projector. so he knows that things are not perceived the same way without everyday Awareness, so he just waits and allows it to come, stays calm and hands it over and it is his son and his son is there with him and he says oh. My God we are in this shared astral projection together we are going to do something like this they went on this wonderful trip and then the next day they corroborated The Experience he spoke with his son and they did not say he asked his son questions and his son was answering what he had past now if he had gotten scared and said, oh my God, this is a shadow creature that came to find me and take my body, um, he wouldn't have had that incredible experience and one of the most third week we look at how we perceive because We take our expectations, we take our fears, we take our personal conditioning with us to the out of body experience because our psyche, the Soul comes with us, so we need to clarify our perception, which is a kind. and then we will be able to see more clearly, but that takes practice.

I mean, that's pretty hard to do in real life, isn't it? So it takes some time. Well, let's ask two more questions and then move on. I haven't talked about this. side about the lady in the back with the top in the beige, okay, thank you, so my question says, of course, in Man Valley we learn from many different teachers, right, and then most of the teachers, in Actually, they promote or say that we need to be more in our bodies and then be grounded grow, be grounded, yeah, yeah, and then we need to master, connect with our body and then, um, so it's a little confusing to me. , like if I didn't keep practicing, you know, being in my body, what would I do?

I want you to know about that experience and what your point of view is about it. Yes, then A is supposed to be negative and B is supposed to make you less incarnated to practice astral projection. Understand this, you cannot astral project unless you are very embodied it is paradoxical, you know, I was a choreographer and dance teacher for 15 years and my degree before my transpersonal degree was in Dance and Movement Psychotherapy, why had the universe given 15 years of being a dance teacher to get people to connect with their bodies to help me prepare people to leave their physical bodies, so I teach people that you have to be embodied, you have to do the somatic work to be able to sustain the experiences.

This is the difference between the mystic and the madman so that the shaman can sustain the experiences. because he is rooted in the earth plane in the Earth Energy, so he can retain the energy of the air and retain the root, he can have these experiences and reconnect them and then share them with the community, the madman is disconnected from his body and he flies away and can fall into psychosis, so it is important to be grounded and embodied and the exercise that we are doing at the end is an incarnation exercise so that we can do an astral projection, so I would say it is incredible what You are doing.

All this embodiment work, somatic work, this is the perfect foundation for a practice in real projection, so it's a very good thing. Let's go to this gentleman and the blue shirt, thank you for all this information and I just wanted to ask questions about the risks like if this were a consequence of a very strong yoga or meditation practice what are the risks of a person just going into a strong projection without knowing inside without having a base and the second is for an astral projection it is necessary to go through it through the realm of astrum because as far as I do not know about this, but I have read this where all the garbage that Humanity that we are creating is there, so what are the reasons to go in there and even without practice, yes, so this is it? great question about risks and safety and again thanks for asking because the chance of someone else thinking the same thing also exists so in the Buddhist tradition which is my vadrian training they would train for four years before being taught how to astral. projected even then only certain people would be chosen because this is a practice that is usually taught in secret and passed down in a lineage.

You won't find much information in Spiritual Traditions online. The reason they have to spend four years is to practice. a stable mind so when you go out on these experiences you don't go oh my gosh and all your beliefs come in and your trauma comes in and you get scared which happens to most of us let's face it and I did it at first , so you can have a stable mind, a mature Consciousness and be okay, I'm going to be here, I'm going to surrender, so you're holding space while it happens, that's why I teach a mindfulness approach and we do a lot of training mental.

At first, to be able to maintain that the second reason is compassion, then they train to be able to do it for other beings, so when we do the workshop I see that you have to have an intention, okay, what do you want to do, where? Do you want to go with what you want to work with, but the most important thing is your motivation? Well, why are you doing this? Do you want to go like my friend wants and spy on her ex-boyfriend to see what she is doing? Ethics Danielle, of course, you can do that, but you probably shouldn't.

There are ethics at the level of real projection. So compassion, so you decide what you want to do. If you have pure motivation, I want to do this to connect with my dead father. to heal the pain and closure I want to do this so I can find my purpose in life and align with what I am here to do. I want to do this like in the Buddhist tradition to help people who have passed away and her. They are stuck in the Bardo or the afterlife and need help to get out of that stuck mental pattern they are in beyond the body to help them move forward, so they must have compassion, otherwise not unlike the madman. and to the mystic.

Can your ego grow and be like oh yeah? I am an astral projector and I have this superpower and I can do whatever I want on the astral plane. Curb the ego, too much ego in the real projection and it waits for you. a difficult journey if anyone has done any type of psychedelics or deep meditation you know you have to surrender your ship, there is no ego in these types of planes or you can't get very far with them so we work with compassion and mental training to Be able to sustain experiences and do them for the right reasons.

You do it and there are no risks because you come from a pure place and the universe is about love, so we come from a place of love. Thank you. Alright. I'm just going to check the time, okay, so what I want to do now is we're going to do an exercise, it's an embodiment exercise so we can do three things. I teach this to beginners because it stops three birds with one stone. everything is fine, if I do an exercise, how will it help me? This is called the exhaustion technique and it is to help us get to step one, which is called Awake mind, sleep body, stay if we don't get there.

You will not be able to carry out an astral project. This is when the body is completely relaxed, ideally to the point where you can't feel it, which we call total body dissolution and then your mind is awake and aware, so we do it until exhaustion. the body, the second reason we do it is to release fear and anxiety because we don't want to take it to the astral plane, so this is a scientifically proven technique to help release stress and release cortisol from the body and the third. The reason we do it is because it's embodiment work, it connects us to our body so we can feel where it is in space and time and the other is that it's a lot of fun, so I'll guide you through it. and I'm going to tell you everything that's going to happen, so it's you, there are no expectations, I just made up a word, okay, this is called therapeutic tremor and this is what happens, you know, when animals run away from lions and they get scared and they manage, they shake their bodies, I don't know if anyone knows and if there is someone weird like me who shakes when they do it, I have intrusive thoughts so I shake to get rid of them, no one told me just do it is weird is biological this is because we are animals we are humans so we are going to shake our bodies we are going to start with one limit at a time we are going to do it with our whole body and then "Let's shake, there will be an invitation to shake between us if "You want it and then we're going to shake around the room and you'll be allowed on stage if you want to shake on stage." with me, okay, if you're sitting there thinking, oh my god, let's force ourselves to do this right, I don't want to do this, okay, okay, calm down, you don't have to do it if you don't want to.

You can do it in your seat, although if you want to join in or you feel a little tired or your body hurts, you can do it in the seat, but I would like to invite you to stand up and we are going to start shaking hands, please note that if you have an injury, don't shake any part of your body where you have an injury because it's the exhaustion technique, you would do this before your practice, where you lie down, but that means we're going to get tired, that's the point, so which is also Fitness, okay, let's do this with music because my background is in dance and I like it, I like to eat a hamburger, you'll see me on Friday night.

I'll go crazy on the dance floor, okay, so if we can play the track and then just copy me or do your version of what I'm doing with one hand, just with one hand, we'll go for a while, okay, shaking the other. hand, come on, perfect start, everyone's doing it 100 Brent, okay, shaking his arms up, maybe you like to do what yeah, perfect, look at this height, bring your shoulders, give them a little shake, yeah , very cute, wonderful, and you have the same hips and shoulders. Maybe you can do the same as me or your own interpretation now one leg only one leg only one leg only one leg very well and the other leg shaking as you want one leg one leg if you think you can balance on one leg and all together arms shoulders towards me hips knees feet and your head I'm shaking my body back and forth if you want to make a sound to release something at the same time you can become a partner or someone close to you shaking with them don't forget your spine how can your spine?

Shake it up, stay here, come on, shake it up with a different person, turn to someone new Shake it up in space, keep going fast, keep going to different spaces I'm your foreign neighbor, well done, well done, thank you. to you for shaking everyone up and as you return to your Seas, can you feel that life force, that tingling energy in your body? Yes, thank you, that tingling life force is something we connect with in the out-of-body state, so you've had a little taste of what you might feel in the old days when you ride in one.

This has been my symbolic astral projection, thank you.
