My friend made this Binaural Beats app to assist with Astral Projection, NHI contact and altered states of consciousness. It's takes aspects of the Gateway Experience and CE5 to create a much more focused experience.

I've been using it as a tester for a month now and I really love the simplicity, but most importantly the Journeys are really amazing. They move between brain states and allow for deeper, more fluid experiences. It also includes a dream journal which is helpful to have inside the app.

Hope you guys enjoy as much as I do. Save travels!

The first time I astral Projected intentionally , I felt the buzzing like bees, intentionally looked at my body on the bed just so I could confirm to myself I was genuinely astral projecting. So I've never done this before, keeping that in mind. I was living in my sisters house at the time. After I witnessed myself on the bed I decided to open my bedroom door to go out into the hall. For some reason I was peaking outside the door. And in that instance I saw my sister standing facing, with the doors open , she was looking directly at the water cylinder tank in the hotpress. I remember immediately thinking don't let her see me. Don't ask me why I felt that, it's like because I was astral projecting I was doing something I shouldn't be doing or something. Now, alot more happened in the astral after that.... anyway I closed my bedroom door and didn't communicate with my sister. The next morning I knew with certainty of what happened. I walked into my sisters kitchen where she was and immediately I said to her " what were you dreaming last night" and she said " I had a horrible dream where I was at the hotpress and the water cylinder tank was leaking".

Any knowledge on this would be appreciated. Was she astral projecting too or was me thinking first time round was right that I witnessed her in her dream?

Hi everyone! I (20F) just had a pretty weird experience and thought of sharing to see if anyone else has ever experienced anything like this.

I am no stranger to sleep paralysis, so a couple minutes ago when I felt myself falling asleep I was trying my best not to because I got this feeling that I would get sometimes that kind of lets me know it’s coming(sleep paralysis). Sometimes I can stop myself from falling asleep and sometimes I can’t.

This was a one of those times that I couldn’t. I’ve had some pretty scary experiences before that I simply don’t talk about but this kind of freaked me out. So I decided about an hour ago to take a nap as I do have things I want to get done today and set an alarm since I’m pretty tired and don’t wanna lose a whole day to sleeping.

I got the feeling, tried to stop myself from falling asleep then failed in doing so, then I felt bad. I felt like I couldn’t breathe, I felt faint, and also like my vision was going a little blurry in the dream somehow. I was trying my best not to panic but I thought something was wrong so I tried to get up. I sat up and realized it wasn’t actually my body. I don’t know how I knew I just knew that I wasn’t actually awake. I was too scared to turn back to look so I laid down again in the same position I was before hoping it wasn’t what I thought it was. When I thought it may have worked after trying to touch the wall in my room and nothing weird happened, I went downstairs to tell my mom, and told her something was wrong, now I think it’s a dream because she actually spoke to me or asked me what’s wrong(I can’t remember exactly but it she said something along the lines inquiring about what could be wrong).

It may be the dream but at first she seemed normal because she was trying something in the kitchen, but my first glance showed me that there was no counter in the kitchen and then when I went to look back to check it was suddenly there. I came upstairs where I saw myself laying down how I thought I was, another thing is I realize is that I was wearing something different but I was in the same position, another reason why I think it’s a dream. I lay back down in the same place and start PRAYING I actually wake up. Then when I did I was so relieved, then when I checked the time I was asleep for less than 10-15 minutes meanwhile it felt like it went on for sooo long.

once sleep paralysis set in I was able to do my usual roll out technique and successfully got out of my body for the 4th time, this time I went up through the ceiling and found myself on the moon, it was beautiful looking at the earth from up there, but I found myself needing to use the restroom which was strange because I’ve never felt that out of body, I found a perfect sized crater on the surface of the moon and relieved myself in astral form, it turned out to be a cave and there were aliens in this cave, they were green aliens, but now they were brown, they rushed out and used some sort of energy weapon against me in the astral and I got sent back into my body, some how with what ever weapon they used it caused me to wake up with defiled bed sheets, and they were not salvageable and needed to be thrown in the trash, how are these aliens able to cause real life consequences. Looking for any form of insight, thanks in advanced!

When I astral phase (it's the exact same thing as projecting but my soul doesen't leave my body, I just close my eyes, looks like I'm looking at everything through a screen)

I go around in circles around the object I phase to like I'm on a circular track. Also sometimes I sort of tumble upside down and bob up and down. How do I stabilize myself? I just want to stay still

I always fail at OBEs; I can't seem to trigger the vibrational sensation myself—it just happens spontaneously. I try to stay calm and focused to achieve astral projection, but I always end up stuck at the lucid dreaming stage, and even that doesn't last long. I've tried various techniques, but I always lose the battle and fall asleep. Any suggestions?

Has anyone encountered something like a very thick heavy door locked from the other side. In my experience i was feeling my way through a pitch dark cavernous room. I knew the door was there, roughly what it looked like, huge, medieval, rough timber bound in metal. But couldn’t see anything. I knew that if I could reach the door to open it, a whole world would be revealed beyond. But when I reached to touch it, a powerful energetic FORCE collided into me, throwing me back into wakefulness. This happened 3x and not since. I’ve met two other people like myself, all of us avid natural travellers in childhood but later experienced some sort of Psychic Block SET BY AN OUTSIDE SOURCE. All 3 of us have the same frustration of being utterly unable to clear that lock, it’s maintained from something outside of our psyches. WTF is that. Have you any insight from your own experience into what I’m describing. It’s 💯 NOT a self imposed barrier, something else entirely, effectively preventing us from reaccessing Astral realms. If you don’t understand what I’m describing that’s okay because almost no one really seems to. Looking for responses from actual shared experience, and how you did it if you successfully cleared or circumvented that weird Block

I've been practicing astral projection for almost 3 months now. I felt like I had more close experiences the first 2 months where I would so WBTB and be able to stimulate my energy body, relax my body, etc. I had 2 induced OBEs and 2 spontaneous OBEs during this time. This past month however has felt very unsuccessful. I do WBTB and usually fall asleep now too quickly. If I do manage to wake up more and not fall asleep instantly, I just feel like I lay there and nothing happens and I eventually just dose off. I try to "not try hard" as others have told me but I feel a little lost right now, like I dont have a solid technique helping me have more successful attempts. Any advice/personal accounts you can offer?

I let myself go, my gaze fixed on the back of my closed eyelids. Gradually, I begin to 'see without seeing.'I surrender to the vibrations and feel a slight floating sensation. To deepen this state, I start counting sheep while focusing solely on my target location, to the point of forgetting my physical shell. My body suddenly becomes very heavy, then fades from my awareness; I can no longer feel it. At that exact moment, I distinctly feel my right arm, bent over my shoulder, while I can no longer perceive the rest of my limbs.

The more I concentrate on my intention and the countdown, the more I feel an intense pull, as if I am being tugged powerfully. I feel myself spinning, then being pulled backward or to the right.The vibrations intensify, and the room seems to shift frequencies, as if it is beginning to spin. During this phase of magnetic attraction, I imagine myself reduced to the size of a pinhead. I try to hook my intention onto this new environment so that I am not sucked back into my body. This moment feels like an eternity!

I visualize myself at my target location (an island), hands crossed over my astral body like a mummy, rocked by the sound of the waves. I try to feel that I am on this island while affirming to myself: 'I am waking up on this island.'Suddenly, the phenomenon stops. I restart the vibratory process. I feel immersed in the vibrations and begin counting sheep again. I have the sensation of being both 'above and below.'

Finally, hunger begins to set in, which forces me to stop everything.During the pulling phase, I felt something near my ear. The strangest part is that upon waking, I can still feel this energy flow and stretching sensation.The lesson I’ve learned: to trigger this magnetic pull, you must completely forget your body, become a simple point of awareness (a pinhead), and project a clear intention toward a specific place.

However, when I feel this magnetic attraction, I don't know where to direct my intention or my gaze yet. It feels as if, to the ego, I am about to step into the void."

A few years ago I started to get really into spiritual practices like astral projection and I did it twice by accident.

I only remember one time right now but its stuck with me.

I remember I was trying to sleep and I felt myself separating from my body, and I found myself to be floating in my room, although I couldnt control it and floated away through the ceiling and roof. It felt as though I was stuck and out of control but I started seeing into hundreds of alternate lives one at a time and somehow all at once.

It felt like I was genuinely stuck in a loop, floating away from my body until i wanted to go home very badly and I heard a male voice saying my name and to come back, and it felt as if id been shoved into my body (it wasnt a voice i recognizd and it was comingfrom inside the astral plane) -

it was painful, I shot up in bed and my heart felt like it was going to explode. it had also felt like id been stuck there for hours or days and itd been about 2 hours.

Now i have a fear that if I attempt purposefully this time, ill get stuck or lost. Any advice?

(I apologize if im rambling, its 3am 😭)

At the beginning of the year, after a quite traumatic experience, I started going to a sort of psychic masseuse. Essentially, her work consists of 1h-sessions during which she works on your astral body to bring balance back to your life, something like that.

During one of those sessions, I astral projected on accident. I could see the room, myself laying down on the table, I could see her movements, everything. She looked in my direction at some point while I was projecting, and I felt myself pulled back to my physical body. That also triggered a spasm and a lamp fell over. At the end of the session, she asked me if I had ever projected before that. I said I didn't think so.

I've always been very spiritual and tried astral projecting when I was younger, but it was always difficult for me to do so.

Since that session, I have not been able to intentionally project in the same room. Whenever I try projecting, I see a forest, where I can walk around. Sometimes other places. But I don't seem to be able to control the projections or where they take me.

Has anyone had a similar experience? Or advice to help me control the projections?

So I have been trying to astral project on and off for about a year.I legitimately get close Xanth,I feel it but I think I have a issue with my environment.I have a dusty room and house,for many many years I have had bad allergies I think I have chronic inflammation.Everytime I get close to projecting my physical body produces some of response that ruins it.My inner monologue or my nose and breathing becomes very inflamed or something.What to do?My parents are struggling to clean the house as well.They are aging and becoming increasingly unreliable.What to do about this situation?

I really want to succeed at astral travel. I'm so curious to know what's on the other side, the dimensions, and everything there—the deceased, the souls…😭🥹😱 I know it requires patience and practice, but I'm in a hurry… and so impatient!😭

Alright heyo you wonderful people, its me again trying to figure out my ap stuff and hopefully get more than 0 comments this time lol. So.. I have ap'd many times. As i rose my vibrations getting into spirituality i stopped having my sleep paralysis episode and one day with my vision went pitch white and i just ended up in my room 2 years ago and realised i can walk around conscious in my house in a dream?.. cut to present day i have had multiple aps also experiences with them. Usually these days i dont hit the vibration state, while thinking trying to go to sleep i just realise im not in the 3d anymore due to my hand being blury or movement being difficult. Now heres the main issue -> From day 1, i have always had family members being present in my ap (whoever is in the house) and they act weird and sometimes like turn negative or something, To the point where i somewhere lightly except/dread them spawning in which they do (probably because of my expectations) and i want advice on how to clear these thoughtforms and expectations out for good. Secondly, My aps dont last long and keep looping as in i keep getting pulled near my body but not inside of it. That prevents me from having any real freedom during one. In my most recent one i flew all the way up to see the universe - the stars the civilisations the galaxy but it hardly lasted 12-15 seconds before pulling me near my body again and eventually as i travelled out, inside my body.
Tldr: How do i stabilize my ap so i can travel around for atleast a while without being immediately pulled near my body and on a experience loop till i finally wake up in my body. 2) How do i clear some conscious expectations or dread of having weird thoughtforms of my family everytime i walk out of my room

Can someone help meee plsss😤😤 I'm so confused about Astral projection rn. I'll give you a little back story cuz I feel like you need context.

Also please share any tips or adviceyou have for me.

I first happened apon AP through my sister,(who had never actually done it), but we found this kinda stuff exciting because we knew deep down it was very real and possible. I truly didn't know anything abt the actual mechanism of how it is possible to do these things. I thought it was just methods and visualization, so yeahh I was pretty far off, 🤦

I'm sure that it might work for some people, but it's never worked for me when I try to muscle my way into AP or Shifting. Methods tend to make you use the wrong side of your brain. Methods were created by people who is already familiar with AP, so as a beginner, it may not work. LONG story short; I tried, I failed. The next night I had no intention of trying again so I went to sleep as usual. I woke early and couldn't go to sleep for hours. I had the biggest scare of my life when I felt these massive vibrations throughout my body. I can only try and explain how it felt, it was like torture, and It was super loud, I felt so terrible. It made my heart rate go crazy, which.made it worse, I would try to make it stop my moving my CR body, but I felt so heavy. I was so afraid. I knew i wasn't alone, my room was dark so you can imagine the fear. even when I manage snap out of it the presence was still there. It happened almost every night after then, I started getting use to the symptoms without actually AP. and without researching anything I learned to focus on steading my breath, and the feeling would eventually leave. Very soon After, I felt brave enough to try to AP, so when the vibrations came I dragged my self out of my body, (I still hadn't done research) idk if thats how to get into the astal plain, can someone tell me??

Anyways it was dark and terrifying my dad was in the shap of some entity, and he stabed me with needles or somth. I was low-key traumatized and never felt save in my room until many month later and not many hours of sleep came with that. But here's the thing, I think I was a dream, only because, it wasn't that realistic and my room may have been different, so what was that??? I was nonetheless traumatized. And here I am two years later at 16yrs of age attempting again. I've even had a change of symptoms, instead of vibrations, it like super strong wind howling past my face. My problem is that every time I try to AP I end up in every other bedroom except mineeee🤦🤦for eg. I had a dream, I woke up and eventually started having symptoms, I kind of wait till I hear that pop or whatever it is and then I ended up in the bedroom I had in my dream, not only that, I was having trouble seeing properly, so it must have been a dream right? If so, how do I NOT end up in a dream??

So I’ve been trying to astral project from many days now only once I succeeded and that was on my first try, I came across a reel and tried and it worked,one of the best feeling of my life but after that it never happened again, I’ll reach the vibration stage where my body goes numb and feel vibration, I get a little exited and try that rope method to get out of the body and also tried the spear method but nothing is actually working, so I request any pro AP to help me out

I had started AP , so far I reach the level i feel limbs are jerking or some part of me flying.

But i dont see anything, it continues i find myself sleep or very aware and concious.

Wondering how to get the state how is it feeling?

I tried imaging ropes, or reciting FARAON

But hv no real prohection experience so far.

Anyboy can help me?

I kept focusing on the phosphenes and I started to see 3D faces. But only face and neck. It was a side view and little below my eye level. Also then I heard myself snoring and killed the state.

Can someone say is that the mind awake body asleep state.
