What is an OOBE? Warning! Don’t Experiment with Astral Projection Until You Know the Facts

Posted by admin on June 1, 2009

What is an oobe, anyway? This is a pretty common question that we get, and one that you very well may have yourself if you’re reading this article right now, too! The simple truth is that while many of these concepts seem advanced, intimidating or even beyond the pale of possibility for many of us, they really aren’t….and in fact, are available to anyone willing to work at them.

Ok….but what does OOBE even stand for?

Easy! It’s an acronym for out of body experience. It’s often referred to as simply OBE, or even astral projection or astral travel instead. While lots of people try to draw different distinctions between the various types of OOBE phenomena, in my view, they are simply all one thing.

Can anyone have an oobe…..or do you need special training or skills?

Good question! The simple truth is that some people can ( and do) have them spontaneously, and others need to work on them for a lifetime to have even a minor one.

What are the factors that differentiate those of us who can…versus those who simply can’t?

No one really knows. It is said that at least 15% of the world population has had at least one, and usually spontaneously. Those who practice find that using sound technology, or brain entrainment software often helps immediately, in that it "trains the brain" to be in a state conducive to the out of body experience.

Are they dangerous? Can you get hurt in the astral planes?

I say no. Some say yes. It depends on what you believe is happening, and where you really "go" during the phenomena. I believe that astral projection and OBE’s are intrinsically safe, and the only REAL danger are those that you experience while "back" in your body…and not while surfing the wild and wooly waves of the supernatural instead!

 

Want to Become Psychic? Stop! Learn the Truth About Developing Psychic Powers

Posted by admin on

Here is an article we submitted earlier today to one of the psychic article directories….and we thought we’d reprint it here for those of you who want to learn how to cultivate your own creative psychic skills and energies.  It’s a little bit basic, but enjoy it anyway..:-)

Who else wants to become psychic? If you are anything like the vast majority of people reading this right now, the simple truth is that you are probably pretty stoked at the idea of developing your own psychic powers, right? It’s true…and the vast majority of us who are interested in the paranormal have a decidedly strong interest in cultivating our own psychic abilities, too.

Filed Under: So What is the Best Way to Become Psychic Anyway?

The Truth? In my view, just like any other exceptional skill, you simply need to practice!

Meditation, for example, is a proven gateway to accentuating ( and accelerating) ones intuitive abilities, and if you are willing to work at it, the BEST way to get major breakthroughs in a hurry.

Other ideas that work well? In my experience, some of the best qualities to cultivate when it comes to tapping into "paranormal" powers are those that involve compassion and empathy. Feeling emotions.

And if you really think about it, it makes total sense, right? Feeling what other people feel….or learning to walk a bit in someone elses shoes so to speak is an incredibly powerful way to actually tap into their "mind" as well, as your sort of already there when you empathize with their pain or plight.

Methods to avoid?

I don’t recommend drugs or alchemy, or some other esoteric or dangerous approaches recommended by some of the "underground" guides you can find online. The BEST way to truly cultivate creative and powerful psychic skills are really no different than any other ability – practice, discipline and a desire to make it happen is all you need!
