Want to have an out of body experience? Imagine being free to leave your body at will, and flying out over the rooftops to exotic locales, or exploring the mysteries of the astral plane. There’s no longer any need to wait until you have time off from work to go travelling, or to pay expensive air fares or accommodation costs – you can go anywhere, at any time!

Astral projection techniques – it should be easy

Many people want to learn astral projection for just these reasons. However, it’s easier said than done. There are many methods that have been put forward over the years to help would-be projectors to leave their bodies, and these can be very helpful. Most involve lying down in a quiet place, relaxing deeply, entering a meditative state, and then engaging in a visualisation process. Examples include seeing yourself climbing up a rope that is dangling just over your body, or seeing a double of your body floating just above the bed, and mentally transferring your perspective into it. By means of these (and similar) visualisations, your consciousness may actually ‘flip’ out of your physical body and into its astral equivalent.

The problem:

Sounds simple, right?

In practice, many people find that such techniques may indeed be simple in theory, but they’re actually anything but easy. And the main stumbling block in many cases is not that the methods don’t work, but that they have trouble relaxing deeply and quieting the mind. These steps are vital prerequisites to leaving the body for most people, and in normal circumstances this level of mental control can take years to develop.

Brainwave entrainment can help

Fortunately for all of us who aren’t trained meditators, brainwave entrainment can help to shortcut the process, allowing ‘normal’ people to achieve and maintain deep states of relaxation with relatively little effort. Brainwave entrainment simply refers to the tendency of the brain to synchronise (or entrain) with an externally-imposed rhythm (for example a sound recording or light pulses). Binaural beats, monaural beats and isochronic tones are examples of sound-based brainwave entrainment technologies that can be used to induce the type of deep trance state that is required for successful astral projection.

Simply put, these recordings contain sounds of specific frequencies that are known to correspond to particular mental states. Recordings that are designed with astral projection in mind typically contain frequencies which induce a theta (about 4 – 8 Hz) brainwave pattern. The theta range has been found to be most effective for allowing out of body experience to occur, so by using a brainwave synchronization recording that helps your brain to settle into this frequency pattern, you’re maximising your chances for success.

Binaural beats or isochronic tones?

Binaural beats and isochronic tone recordings work in slightly different ways, but their effect is similar. Both can be used to help you learn to astrally project. However, isochronic tones may have a slight edge, as many people have found them to be a bit more effective than binaurals. They also don’t require the use of headphones, which can be more convenient. However isochronics are less commonly available than the more well-known binaural beats. It may help to try both, and see which you prefer.

The inductions into a state of trance and out of body experiences are possible and now they are accessible to everyone thanks to the astral projection binaural beats. Indeed, you can have your spirit separate from your body and travel on its own exploring the depths of your consciousness and unknown worlds. This has been practiced for thousands of years through the use of a range of techniques including meditation ones, but usually it takes years for a person to learn how to do it and experience its benefits. Thanks to the binaural beats that are broadcasted in your ears all you have to do is lie down, relax and begin your journey.

Many people who want to try astral projection are slightly scared about what can happen when the induction has been successful and they are in a state of trance. The truth is that the out of body experiences are different for everyone. Generally, you can feel a greater awareness of your entire being and primarily your soul and mind. It is essential to keep in mind that this type of deep mediation cannot harm you in any way either physically or mentally. Furthermore, in the majority of cases the so called theta brain mode that you are in thanks to the brainwaves brought about by the astral projection binaural beats is very tender and you can easily get out of it when you want.

Most practitioners of astral travel claim that they can actually feel and see their astral body separate from their physical one. You may see your spirit rolling out of your body or climbing a ladder or a rope. It is also possible for you to be flying in the sky or going through walls and doors. In many cases you can find yourself in a completely strange place in the matter of seconds. Many people share stories of how they have had an out of body experience that has happened to them later on in reality. In fact, this is perhaps how psychics make their projections for the future and can tell what will happen.

When the astral projection binaural beats take effect on you, you basically travel to a plane or a level of consciousness the depth of which depends on your personal state. It can be safely said that the deeper you go the more you discover. So, it is also possible to reach a level of communication with other conscious forms. These can be other people who are experiencing astral projection at the very same moment. Some people who are using this type of trance claim that they can bond and talk to loved ones who are far away. Claims of contacts with deceased people and even with extraterrestrial beings also come quite often from individuals exploring the astral universe.

You should keep in mind one important thing when using the astral projection binaural beats – you decide what to experience in the astral realm. Thus, you can always make the most out of such a travel.
