This is a simple guide that provides the most basic information and techniques required to learn astral projection and to start experiencing the freedom of astral travel.

#1: Mind Awake Body Asleep

The first step to learn astral projection is learning how to put your body to sleep while your mind remains awake and aware. One technique that is commonly used to practice this is to lie flat and hold one arm directly up towards the ceiling. As you start to drift off to sleep, your arm will fall. As your arm falls, it will wake you up. Over time, you will begin to become aware of how you feel when your body goes to sleep and will not need to raise your arm anymore.

#2: Visualization

A key skill you must develop as you learn astral projection is the ability to visualize. As you are “mind awake body asleep,” visualize yourself on the other side of the room looking back at yourself. Do whatever you can to make that experience as real as possible: Crunch your toes into the carpet, run your hand along the wall. Try to move your consciousness more “there” than “here.”

#3: Binaural Beats

Recently, science has discovered a “short cut” to learning astral projection. By using a set of headphones and two tones at slightly different audio frequencies, your brain will create a new sound wave that is the difference between the two actual tones. This new sound wave can force your brain to work at the same frequencies it is at when you are deeply asleep. By using these frequencies, people have reported an increased ability to project astrally.

Astral projection used to be something that required years and years of practice and concentration. Using these new audio techniques, people have reported success much more rapidly.
