SEVEN STEPS

You’ve been very patient while I prattled on about my childhood and here’s your reward. You’re about to learn how to get out of your physical body, and I shall keep on prattling. Oh lucky you.

There are Seven Steps to intentionally traveling out of body.

1. Desire

2. Relaxation

3. Visualization and Destination

4. Direct Lift-out

5. Awareness

6. Travel

7. Return and Memory

Each step is an important singular piece and also important as a whole. Your subconscious thoughts and a variety of physical factors also play a part. We’ll get to those soon, don’t rush me.

To introduce briefly the Seven Steps here’s a quick, not so random event from when I was ten. I’ll tell the story and then break it down into the steps. It’ll be fun. I cross my fingers and promise it will. Although the following travel was completely unintentional it was propelled by the same seven steps you’ll be using.

At age ten I was fond of gymnastics. My favorite activity was tumbling end over end down a long mat like a ridiculous circus clown.

My craving for tumbling also manifested itself during my restful hours. At night, in my focused thoughts, I’d envision the rolling and leaping. Over and over I’d jump and roll and jump and roll and jump and... It was quite by accident from my mental-tumbling that I discovered an ability for pushing my nonphysical out of the top of my head. Although it was incredibly fun, it was also disconcerting as I actually felt as if I were flinging my entire physical body forward, up and out of the bed to crash into the wall. From there the shock of being ‘out’ immediately dragged me right back into my physical.

Now I’ll break down the experience into the seven steps:

1. Desire

I wanted to tumble. I focused on tumbling. I did tumble, nonphysically.

2. Relaxation

Although I had not intentionally ‘controlled’ my relaxation I was deeply relaxed while focused on tumbling.

3. Visualization–Destination

I visualized myself tumbling to satisfy my desire. A destination can be a person, place, object, or ‘action’. The destination in this event was the ‘action’ of tumbling.

4. Direct Lift-Out

My nonphysical tumbled out as an ‘uncontrolled’ response to my focused desire. This puts the lift-out into the category of ‘indirect’ but who cares because it was a hoot.

5. Awareness

My awareness while out was excellent but totally ‘uncontrolled’ and exceedingly giddy.

6. Travel

The travel was a unintentional nonphysical headfirst roll-out from the physical and a tumble across the room into a wall.

7. Return

The short travel was followed by an immediate return to the physical and lots of smiling. Nothing beats being ‘out’.

Memory

A clean memory of the nonphysical event requires that it be imprinted upon the physical brain, immediately upon return. A simple conscious effort to recall the nonphysical event, after returning to the physical, is enough to imprint the travel. If the return to the physical is followed instead by falling directly to sleep, without committing the event from nonphysical knowledge to physical knowledge, there’s a good chance of a muddled memory later or none at all of the event.

Thankfully, so that I could tell you my oh-so-fascinating tumbling story today, my amusement during the event created an immediate imprint on my physical and I carry a vivid memory. But I don’t know where I’ve left my car keys.
