We’ve all probably heard a story about sleep paralysis, where one wakes up and is unable to move or speak. Is it because a demon is on top of you and you need to call on Jesus to save you? Is it due to anxiety, stress or lack of sleep and your brain isn’t functioning properly? All of these theories are completely wrong.

Sleep paralysis is the first step to astral projection. The process usually happens for the first time while you are sleeping, when your soul awakens before your body does. Since part of your brain is asleep when this happens, most people usually freak out and go into panic mode or call for Jesus. I don’t know how many times it took me to realize no one was coming to help me and I really needed to figure it out on my own. I knew there had to be more going on, I just didn’t know what it was at the time, but I had a feeling it had the potential to be amazing. I would say after a hand full of times of this happening, one day I just stopped and listened, I let go of fear and calmed down. At the time I had been practicing Chi Kung meditation and breathing, and I remembered learning about the Soul and how energy flows. So I started to breathe slowly, in through my noise and out through my mouth; with each breath I consciously chose to let go of the impulse to be afraid.

Then all of a sudden BOOM– to my surprise I started rising toward the ceiling. I was floating and it was all because of my breathing. I was in complete amazement, this whole time my body was falling asleep but my conscious mind was still awake. My SOUL was detached from my meat suit and I was free to just roam, no gravity, no burden. At first I wasn’t able to move far from my bed or even hold the projection for long. There was too much information coming in at once and it was still all so new to me. My mind and my thoughts were my legs, time seemed slower and everything was pulsing with energy and vibrations. It’s funny because when I project now, every now and again I’ll touch the side of my physical body before I blast out. Our physical suit feels like a steel metal cage to my spiritual self.



The astral world is the spiritual world, or the plain where the physical and spiritual meet. From there you can encounter other beings or even go into other dimensions. You may experience places that are just full of color, that have no structure or sound. You can also find places like the Akashic records and other amazing floating cities. You can even visit cities full of beings that have families just like us, living a “regular life.”



The key is to slowly learn how to put yourself to sleep, like I said CHI KUNG meditation is a great way to start understanding how energy works and flows. Lay on your back to align your chakras. A good time to do this is early in the morning, when you first wake up, make sure you are still half asleep and half awake. I naturally wake up around 5:00am to use the bathroom. When you wake up, don’t just fall back to sleep, lie in bed on your back and start your breathing techniques. Let your body rest but keep your mind focused on the center of your face. Your eyes should be closed and your arms and legs crossed. Let time pass for a little bit, 10 minutes or so. Once this happens try to use your breath, as you breathe out, imagine you are pushing an invisible force. Imagine yourself pushing your spiritual energy out of your physical body.

Astral projection takes years to really get good at and is a very powerful tool to have in life. I highly recommend staying in your house or neighborhood during your astral projections, until you have it down a little more. Always BE CAREFUL because there are other beings out there that do not like humans playing around in the spiritual world. It is always best to seek out a guide to help you in your travels. Astral projection is a potent spiritual tool for us human beings to connect back to source and the spiritual world. I believe this is our path to evolution.
