Here is an interesting series of blog posts and articles on astral projection studies, techniques and just simple tricks and tweaks that are proven to help newbies have their first out of body experience.

Some of the astral projection advice that is referenced here comes from some pretty powerful names in the OBE world – including Scott Rogo ( a long time investigator of paranomal phenomena and a well respected writer and researcher of the occult) as well as, of course, Robert Monroe, whose Monroe Center remains today one of the most well known institutes for spiritual study – specifically into altered states of conciousness.  ( which is pretty much why WE’RE all here reading this stuff to learn, right..;-)?

One of the chief barriers people learning to project face is fear. Many are afraid that they may die, or be harmed in some way as a result of their projection. Nothing could be farther from the truth.

The Cantebury Institute, reknowned for its occult studies, executed an experiment in projection involving over 2,000 people. None of them were hurt in any way by this, and now, three years later, none have complained of any newly arising problems.

There are some pretty good OBE tips here too – so check out the full post at the link below the jump….I hate the “black” backrground blogs cause they’re TOUGH to read…..but other than that one little minor quible, there is some great stuff to check out here for sure!

Once you are aware that you cannot be harmed by projecting, you should begin monroe’s techniques, step by step.Step one:Relax the body. According to Monroe, “the ability to relax is the first prerequisite, perhaps even the first step itself” to having an OBE. (out of body experience) This includes bothe physical and mental relaxation. Monroe does not suggest a method of attaining this relaxation, although Progressive Muscle relaxation, coupled with deep breathing exercises (inhale 1, exhale 2, inhale 3…. until 50 or 100) are known to work well.Step two:Enter the state bordering sleep. This is known as the hypnagogic state. Once again, Monroe doesn’t recommend any method of doing this.

One way is to hold your forearm up, while keeping your upper arm on the bed, or ground. As you start to fall asleep, your arm will fall, and you will awaken again. With practice, you can learn to control the Hypnagogic state without using your arm. Another method is to concentrate on an object. When other images start to enter your thoughts, you have entered the Hypnagogic state. Passively watch these images. This will also help you maintain this state of near-sleep. Monroe calls this Condition A.
