It\u2019s like having your very own cosmic boarding pass to explore the realms of the unknown. And the gateways to these realms are astral projection meditations.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re designed to help you access altered states of consciousness on demand and springboard into an out-of-body experience. So if you want to learn how to practice meditation for astral projection, here\u2019s where you can start:<\/p>\n<p>These meditations allow you to channel your focus and explore the depths of your mind. Not only that, they help you transform yourself with a profound sense of awe.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-an-astral-projection-meditation\">What Is an Astral Projection Meditation?<\/h2>\n<p>Astral projection meditation is a powerful technique designed to facilitate astral travel\u2014the process of consciously shifting your awareness beyond the boundaries of your physical body. It serves as a portal to realms of existence that are different from ordinary perception.<\/p>\n<p>Simply put, it is meditation and astral projection combined: one serves as a way of accessing altered states of consciousness, and the other as a gateway to non-physical realms of existence.<\/p>\n<p>But how does it work?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The principles and techniques of astral projection meditation are rooted in the power of focused intention and heightened awareness, which allows you to have an <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/out-of-body-experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">out-of-body experience<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>According to <strong>Jade Shaw<\/strong>, astral projection expert and trainer of Mindvalley\u2019s <em>The Art of Astral Projection<\/em> Quest, astral projection is a secret skill you never knew you had. It\u2019s something you can access consciously for insight, guidance, and healing.<\/p>\n<p>So the meditation tied to it enables you to induce this experience and safely navigate the astral plane. On top of that, it offers numerous benefits, such as accelerated personal growth, enhanced self-awareness, and a deeper connection to the spiritual aspects of your being.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/954aa426-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0171.webp\" alt=\"Jade Shaw, astral projection expert and trainer of Mindvalley\u2019s The Art of Astral Projection Quest, doing an astral projection meditation\" class=\"wp-image-67403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/954aa426-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0171.webp 1200w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/954aa426-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0171-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/954aa426-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0171-540x304.webp 540w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/954aa426-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0171-1128x635.webp 1128w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/954aa426-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0171-442x249.webp 442w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Jade Shaw, trainer of Mindvalley\u2019s <em>The Art of Astral Projection<\/em> Quest<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-achieve-astral-projection-through-meditation\">How to Achieve Astral Projection Through Meditation<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re itching to unlock the realm of astral projection, you\u2019ve got to master the \u201cmind awake, body asleep\u201d state (or MABA, for short). It\u2019s a type of <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/how-to-manipulate-reality\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">altered state<\/a> similar to a trance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a state that can be compared to an experience of deep relaxation\u2014one where you feel as if you\u2019ve melted into the space around you. Jade calls it \u201ctotal body dissolution,\u201d otherwise known as ego death or ego dissolution, and this implies dissolving your sense of identity.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, we naturally pass through two transitional states of consciousness each day: the hypnagogic and hypnopompic states. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/topics\/medicine-and-dentistry\/hypnopompic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Clinical psychiatrists<\/a> explain them in this way:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Hypnagogic refers to the phenomenon when you\u2019re falling asleep, and<\/li>\n<li>Hypnopompic refers to the phenomenon when you wake up from sleep.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So what does all this have to do with astral projection meditation?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In order to harness the MABA state, you need to achieve a high level of relaxation without allowing your mind to drift off\u2014essentially, a hypnagogic state. Jade calls this mindfulness approach \u201cbeditation,\u201d paying attention to the present moment and being aware of what\u2019s happening without judgment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And there are a few techniques that can help: <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mindvalley.com\/sleep-meditation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">yoga nidra<\/a> is one, and astral projection meditation is another.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-1-breathe\">Step 1. Breathe<\/h3>\n<p>It starts with the 4-7-8 breathing technique, developed by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drweil.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Andrew Weil<\/a>. Based on an ancient yogic pranayama technique, it\u2019s scientifically proven to deeply relax and replenish the body.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Since it switches on the parasympathetic nervous system, which helps us rest and digest, it\u2019s a natural tranquilizer for the nervous system.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The 4-7-8 breathing technique:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Inhale through your nose for the count of four;<\/li>\n<li>Then hold your breath for seven counts;<\/li>\n<li>Exhale out for eight counts;<\/li>\n<li>Breathe in again for four; and<\/li>\n<li>Repeat seven full rounds.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-2-observe\">Step 2. Observe<\/h3>\n<p>As soon as you finish your breathing technique, return to your natural breathing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Relax. There\u2019s nothing else for you to do but go deeper into relaxation, keeping your mind awake and aware.<\/p>\n<p>Observe your breathing if you\u2019re drifting off. Observe your thoughts, allowing them to pass through your awareness.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-3-enter-your-sweet-spot\">Step 3. Enter your sweet spot<\/h3>\n<p>As you\u2019re driving the car of your awareness along the hypnagogic highway, enter your sweet spot of being neither too awake nor too asleep.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t rush to exit your body just yet. Master your sweet spot by making it familiar. This beditation is your tool to harness MABA.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Practice it every night, and very soon, it will take you to the astral planes of your choice.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy your epic ride through the hypnagogic highway.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/bd02cd38-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0172.webp\" alt=\"Meditation hands on lap during an astral projection meditation\" class=\"wp-image-67401\" srcset=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/bd02cd38-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0172.webp 1200w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/bd02cd38-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0172-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/bd02cd38-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0172-540x304.webp 540w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/bd02cd38-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0172-1128x635.webp 1128w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/mv-prod-blog-en-assets\/2023\/06\/bd02cd38-astral-projection-meditation-20210610_mindvalley_jade_shaw_shot_4_book_0172-442x249.webp 442w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-mindvalley-s-astral-projection-meditations\">Mindvalley\u2019s Astral Projection Meditations<\/h2>\n<p>There are three steps to astral projection: the MABA state, the vibrational state, and the sense of separation.<\/p>\n<p>While the ultimate step of moving out of the body is the most exciting one, it\u2019s impossible to have an intentional out-of-body experience without harnessing the previous two.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So astral projection meditations primarily focus on training you to master these two altered states of consciousness.
