Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

You Can Learn About Remote Viewing Techniques Now!

By Peter Rivers

Remote viewing techniques can let you see people, places and things remotely from you, without using the five senses most currently think of as the only way to receive information. Remote viewing and other psychic abilities are not out of body experiences, either. Instead, you can take advantage of remote viewing as a power you already have and just don't know about. You can absolutely see objects, people and places without physically being there, but by using remote viewing techniques.

The Remote Viewer - Misconceptions and Explanations

Remote viewing techniques are not something you use to be in "two places at once," or to maliciously view another object, person or place.

Instead, remote viewing harnesses a form of ESP and your own psychic mind abilities to see what you want to see when you want to see. What happens, essentially, is that the object or person comes to you, instead of you going to a person or object. You can do this just by carefully preparing for what you want to achieve -- which is, after all, remote viewing.

Using Inherent Mind Power

One of the most important concepts to grasp when you're thinking about using your remote viewing capabilities is that you have an inherent, natural mind power that only needs to be tapped.

Think about this for a moment. Experts have said that we only use 10% of our mind's abilities, with the remaining 90% untouched, and dormant. Using some of that remaining 90% gives you the ability to use your incredible mind's power. Properly using and controlling at least some of that other 90% will allow you to use remote viewing effectively.

How to Use Remote Viewing

Your mind is vastly resourceful and has powers you don't even know about, but how do you use them to tap into your remote viewing abilities? There are remote viewing techniques that you can utilize, such that you can begin to harness this most amazing ability.

Perhaps the best way to start is to simply go someplace quiet and sit or lie in a relaxing position. For example, sit cross-legged on the floor or lie comfortably on a bed. The place you do this should be quiet and free of distraction.

Second, simply engage in some deep breathing exercises that are calming and relaxing. Inhale and exhale deeply, lightly pressing your tongue on the roof of your mouth as you do so. Focus on each breath; the goal is to clear your mind of all extraneous thoughts.

Third, suspend all disbelief of any human limitations that you think you have. Belief is what is ultimately responsible for a successful remote viewing occurrence; you need to believe that you can see objects, people, and events which you are not physically able to view.

Fourth, an easy way to get started on remote viewing is to simply practice seeing yourself, lying there or sitting there on the bed or floor. Imagine that you are sitting in front of yourself, looking back over your shoulder at yourself. This can be difficult to do at first, but keep going; it does get easier.

Once you have successfully viewed yourself outside yourself, try to practice with more challenging remote viewing targets. For example, you can try to view familiar objects, places or people in the house or building you're currently in. The object here is to build up your belief in yourself, that you can be successful at remote viewing with these more simple exercises; once done come you can move on to more dance exercises.

These remote-viewing techniques can help you begin to harness this incredible ability you have, but that you may not yet use. Believe in yourself and your abilities, and you can use these remote big techniques to successfully establish yourself with this talent, so that you can use it when you need it.

Secrets Of Astral Projection

By Samuel K. Millings

Generally speaking, the majority of people have at one point in their life heard the term 'astral projection.' This could have been from an enlightened friend, a book or a movie. Few people though understand that astral projection is a real event, and that it is something that everyone can do. Chances are very high that you have astral projected and didn't even realize it.

First, you need to understand that astral projection is real. It is the ability of any individual to leave their body. We all have this ability, it happens as we lay sleeping during the night. While we sleep, our physical body is at rest, the subconscious mind then takes control. While this is going on an individual is astral projecting, although for the most part, they will not remember doing so.

While you are projecting, you can go anywhere you want to go. You should try recalling your childhood; you may be able to remember being able to do this after you went to sleep. Over time, you may have forgotten. When it involves astral projection there is no such thing as time or distance. You can go anywhere, since while asleep your physical body is at rest and your astral body travels.

This brings to mind the next question, what is the astral body? The astral body is the invisible duplicate of the body, commonly known as the ethereal body. It is the core of our feelings and desires. Why doesn't the astral body leave and not come back? The astral body is tied to the physical body with a silver cord.

This silver cord was connected the first time the astral body entered the physical body and can not be severed until the astral body leaves the physical body for the last time, death. It is the silver cord that prevents the astral body from straying away.

You may wonder where you may go when you astral project. The astral body goes to the astral plane. It is the invisible double of the Earth. It has a faster vibration than the physical Earth and its vibrations penetrate to the center of the Earth. Some define it as another dimension of reality. However, the majority agree that there are many levels of the astral plane.

It is only natural at this point to question whether or not there are any dangers to astral projection. The answer is yes and no. We have established that astral projection is something everyone is capable of doing. We have also stated that there isn't a way that the astral body can leave the physical body and not come back. But as with anything you do, you need to keep your head about you. This means that you need to make sure you have solid thinking skills so that you are going where you want and you know what you want.

The danger then comes when you astral project when you mind is not sound. So if a person is under the influence of alcohol or drugs they could end up in bad places. The bad places would be the lower levels of the astral plane.

It is essential that you know what it is you do and where it is you want to go. Your goal is to consciously astral project. You need to have complete control of what your astral body is doing. Your thoughts control your astral projection.

You can learn to astral project very quickly if you prepare properly beforehand. Many individuals prefer to astral project alone in their own home. However, numerous professionals in the field of astral projection teach various methods to help others gain control and enjoy an enriched experience. You might even like to try both methods of learning how to astral project.

You can find various other resources such as books online. For instance, you can create the right state of mind by listening to quality astral projection hypnosis recordings. It will help you relax and walk you through the various stages. This is beneficial since you can continue playing the recording repeatedly until your subconscious mind picks up the message that it is all right for you to leave your body.

There have been great advances recently in a sound technology called binaural beats'. This works by playing slightly different sound frequencies in each ear. This has the effect of very quickly relaxing you into a deep state of meditation which is necessary for successful astral projection.

Don't get frustrated if you are not able to successfully astral project the first time or even the second or third time. This is something that you must practice. It is not an ability that you have to acquire, we are all capable of doing it, many have just forgotten how and need to fine tune the natural skill.

Still need to be convinced? When did you last dream you were flying and then felt as though you were falling? As the astral body, moves through the astral plane it, feels like flying. The sensation of falling comes when the astral body comes back into the physical body. Astral projection is very real. Anyone can do it and find benefit in it. However, you do have to invest time in fine-tuning your natural ability in order to reach the kind of success you desire with astral projection. It will become easier to do once you begin your journey while projecting.

How To Easily Experience An Amazingly Vivid Lucid Dream!

By Colleen Rikke

If you are not yet familiar with the phrase, Lucid Dreaming is a relatively simple concept. A Lucid Dream is a dream where you are aware that you are dreaming, even while in the middle of it. The degree of lucidity depends on a few things - how much control you can exert over events in the dream, how much of the dream you can remember upon waking and how stable the dream is.

Control over your dream is the most important element of Lucid Dreaming. It is an incredible experience to be in the midst of a dream and to know that you are in fact dreaming. You are in control of everything in your dream and can have any experience you choose to have.

Just consider that for a moment. Lucid Dreaming looks, feels and engages all of your other senses as if it were really happening but you know that you are only dreaming and will be totally safe no matter what you do. This is the kind of virtual reality experience which computer experts can only dream of creating!

A growing number of people are mastering Lucid Dreaming and trying it for themselves. While most of us have an experience with Lucid Dreaming at some point in our lives, just imagine how great it would be to have a Lucid Dram any time you choose!

A Lucid Dream offers you the chance to have any experience you can imagine. You can meet and hang out with your favorite celebrities and historical figures, have erotic experiences, visit other worlds, speak with a long lost loved one; anything at all! There are no limits other than your imagination.

Having regular Lucid Dreaming experiences is something which until recently could take an extremely long time to achieve. People would spend as long as a year in training to have their first Lucid Dream - and it remained out of reach for some people no matter how long they tried.

So are there any simple ways of experiencing a Lucid Dream?

Some people report that certain foods can encourage Lucid Dreaming if consumed shortly before sleeping - Mustard, Orange Juice and dairy products among them.

Also recommended by some are ice cream, popcorn, pickles and fish. Some people say that these foods are ideal for preparing your mind for Lucid Dreaming - but of course, many of these are high in salt and fat, which isn't very conducive to a good night's sleep.

Can Technology Assist You?

New technologies can make it somewhat easier to experience Lucid Dreaming. There are devices which can help to stimulate you to have Lucid Dreams such as eyeshades and sleep masks which activate a LED when rapid eye movements are detected. This light reminds you that you are dreaming; letting you take control of the dream!

Another of the new developments is an audio technology known as binaural beats. Different frequencies are played in each ear of the listener; this has been found to be helpful in achieving Lucid Dreams.

What this process does is to synchronize the two hemispheres of the brain. And almost instantly, just by listening to these special frequencies, puts the brainwaves into a state known as REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep which is the state needed to achieve a lucid dream.

For anyone wondering what it is like to experience a Lucid Dream, then this is definitely the easiest and most reliable way of getting started!

Your Fantastic Mindpower!

By Kevin B Shine

We only use an estimated amount of ten percent of our mindpower. One can only imagine the incredible things we would experience if we could access that ninety percent that we don't currently use!

For a long time scientists thought that people with psychic powers, or extra sensory power could use these different parts of their mind. Whether they were born with these extra abilities of accessing this phenomenal mindpower, or they just managed to develop this power later on in life, nobody knows.

Through the process of quantum physics it is starting to be thought that the true nature or the link between real life and true nature is by what we think and what we experience in life.

After verification of the ancient religions there was a popular saying. They believed reality is just a product of your mind. When you change the way you think you also effect the way reality is at that time. Mindpower is thought to be the only reality.

There have been films about mindpower. 'The Secret' explains the theory of the law of attraction. Through the powerful mindpower a person can view life in a certain way and attract anything they want to into their life.

If you haven't seen the movie, it is about how the law of attraction affects everyone, and that all our actions have cause and effects. No matter what you think, you can get. Learning to actually communicate with your subconscious mind is important or else your mind will think everything is exactly the way you want it to be. The scientific term for this is homeostasis.

What reacts with the universe is called universal consciousness. It's a way to manifest your desires by using the subconscious mind which is responsible for all the esp powers, for example, telepathy, remove viewing, and precognition.

Developing your mindpower it is key to communicate with your subconscious mind. There are a number of ways to do this.

By repeating and upbeat, optimistic phrase several times a day to yourself is called an affirmation. Through daily affirmations yoursubconscious mind will start to understand the message.

A daily affirmation to break a bad habit would be to constantly tell yourself over and over throughout the day that you no longer need whatever it was that was a bad habit, or I no longer choose to do whatever that habit was. If you want to bring up your self esteem you would tell yourself how good you are, how smart you are, how beautiful you are, and any other positive thoughts.

Consistently repeating affirmations they really do work. They are able to communicate with the subconscious mind. How you program your subconscious through your affirmations, will make you behave differently so be careful cause your mind will eventually understand the message.

Going even further with this thought is to realize that you can change anything about yourself. Whatever you want to change about yourself, will happen, and only 'you' can make it reality. This is what we call mindpower.

Visualize the change to help you develop mindpower. Close your eyes and think about what you wish to see happen, happen. Soon your subconscious mind will believe it. Your mindpower can be powerful with the art of visualization. Pictures are stored into your subconscious, and will help you get what you want. You can find pictures of what you want, whether a new house or a new car. Cut them out, and use them to visualize what you want. Consistency in this area of mindpower, and it will really appear in your life.

Psychic powers, telepathy, and looking into the future can also be visualized and later attained. Exercising your mindpower will only make it that much more powerful!

Using hypnosis to communicate to your subconscious will help you to develop mindpower. You can visit a professional hypnotist or hypnotherapist and they will put you into a deep state of relaxation. Once in a deep state of relaxation you can get into that subconscious mind easier.

A less expensive way to hypnotize yourself into that state, is self hypnotizing. That is when you listen to a recording of a hypnotherapist going through the steps they go through in their session. The great thing about self hypnotizing yourself is that you can do it on a consistent basis, and the more you do anything the more powerful it can become.

A new audio technology for brainwave entrainment called brainwave synchronization. Brainwave synchronization changes your brainwaves instantly to a different frequency. The result of this, can be many different things. A certain frequency can improve your memory, while another frequency may release endorphins that could heal or alleviate pain.

You can also tune into a certain frequency that controls the state of meditation and will allow you to communicate quickly with your subconscious mind and therefore develop your mindpower quickly.

Specific frequencies can stimulate a part of your body known as the chakra energy center. This chakra energy is in the center of your forehead where a third eye would be. That is why they call it the third eye chakra which is responsible for the psychic powers.

There is no need to develop these powers, they are inside you and just need to find a way out. People say mindpower is in you, but repressed and locked deep within your mind.

Developing mindpower actually comes down to unlocking all the powers and true potential that every human being already has.

Tapping Into Your Own Manifestation Powers

By Tina Eastman

You have the power of manifestation even if you don't realize it. You can make it happen but you're going to have to train your mind to recognize how strong it really is. Throughout your entire life you have been challenged to let go of your mind's abilities and powers, and it has not served you well. Skeptics and conformists run the world and thus they have all told us that we are not truly in control.

But we are. It's not antireligious or sacramental to determine that you have the power within your own mind to make things happen the way you want them to. Free will is the ultimate gift we were given, thus we can still be faithful individuals while learning how our own mind's abilities work for us instead of against us.

Some websites suggest that there are foods you can eat to help tap into your own manifestation powers. Commonly known as brain foods, there are certain fatty acids and proteins that can make the brain stronger and help you develop a more attuned mind. Not all experts agree with dietary contributions, but since the foods that are healthy are the ones that feed the brain, you can err on the side of probability.

How many times have you been told that healing your ill body is just as much in your mind as it is in your body? How many times have you been told that focusing on what you really want will get you there? These are mild forms of manifestation. These are the natural and intuitive senses that we already have and use regularly. The main reason why so many of us fail to use them and reap their rewards on a regular basis is that our mind is also clogged up with a lot of useless information.

What we feed our mind is important. What information we give it to process and focus on will help determine the direction our life takes. When we focus on small details of life that have no bearing on our mission forward we are less likely to be able to practice manifestation skills.

We have to first learn how to take the daily issues that plague our hearts and let them float away. We then have to learn how to listen to our own abilities and learn how to act on our sense driven desires. When we can do this, the world becomes not only our oyster but our whole ocean.

Clearing out your mind and tapping into your internal resources takes time. Don't just try it one evening and call it a failure when you don't manifest yourself into a successful job the next day. It takes a dedicated effort. You may even call it a lifestyle.

Being able to tap into our own mind and grab our own senses becomes a lifestyle, not just the occasional endeavor. We are all able to develop our mind the way we want to but it does require a certain amount of chronic discipline. If it was an overnight process, we would all be able to think our life into a better place.

Secret Law Of Attraction Puts Success Within Reach

By Leona Claives

It may be the last time you heard about the universal laws was in your high school physics class. As a short refresher course, the universal laws are natural rules that govern the way the cosmos works. Natural laws cannot be modified by further judicial discourse; they are what they are. An apple plucked from a tree will always fall to the earth, plain and simple. And there are other universal laws that most people do not know about. If you can harness them, there is no telling what you can accomplish. And it is possible to harness the universal secret law of attraction with just the power of your mind.

Your mind is actually a very powerful tool for achieving your goals. Perhaps you were told to visualize the ball going into the basket when you were learning to shoot free throws.

You may have also heard the old adage: "If you dream it, you can achieve it." Both of these techniques are completely legitimate, but they only touch the surface of the much larger concept of the universal law of attraction.

For most of us, we have been trained to think poorly of our abilities. At some point in our lives we have been told we aren't good enough, smart enough, or talented enough to accomplish our goals.

You need to do a lot of soul-searching, figure out the parts of yourself that you don't like and either fix them or come to love them indiscriminately. In order for the law of attraction to work for you, you need to be full of positive energy and confidence.

Within the universe like objects are often attracted to other like objects. So if you want to pull all kinds of positive energy toward yourself, you need to train your mind to become a positive magnet. This means that only good thoughts and emotions should be coming out of you. Retraining yourself to be a truly positive person takes some work. Most of us use cynicism as a shield against the hardships of daily life.

We crack self-deprecating jokes and don't set our expectations too high so that we won't get disappointed. However, if we can learn to release all of our doubts and fears and only view ourselves in a positive light, then the sky's the limit. Take some time every day, say at least twenty minutes, to sit still and concentrate on what a good person you are. It may take one or many months, but eventually you will believe it.

Once you have turned your mind into a positive energy magnet all the positive energy flowing throughout the world will be attracted to you. Project that energy outward to help you influence people and accomplish your goals. The positive power of your personality should overwhelm people in a good way. Just imagine what you want them to be saying to you or what goal you want to achieve and the universal power backing up your mind will make it happen. With the law of attraction your personal potential is unlimited.

Therapies for Anxiety

By Stephen Daniels

Anxiety is a frequent response to stress. When stress levels become too intense to cope well, anxiety can reach a level that interferes with daily life. This is particularly true now, in the current economy, when financial difficulties are affecting so many households.

Lack of funds to pay the bills, concerns about job security, and the risk of losing one's home, all put people at risk for anxiety. Worries about other personal incidents can also add to underlying issues.

Symptoms of anxiety can be emotional, mental and even physical, or a combination of all three. Sufferers often describe feeling trapped or overwhelmed. You may feel afraid without understanding why, or be concerned about losing control of day to day events. Big mood swings and bouts of sadness are common, as is a feeling of unreality. Anxiety can interfere with normal thought processes and short-term memory, which makes it even harder to handle immediate concerns.

Anxiety can cause physical symptoms, including dizziness, nausea, constipation, diarrhea, and even strained breathing. Some people report headaches or a ringing in the ears, and some have an increase in allergy reactions. It is not uncommon to have bad dreams, or insomnia.

When emotional and physical symptoms occur at the same time, many people find it difficult to cope on a daily basis. It can become overwhelming to make everyday decisions. You may feel trapped, unable to see your way out of your predicament. These are signs to seek help.

A crisis intervention approach is one method to help deal with the many symptoms and issues of anxiety. Crisis intervention looks at the problem head-on, not as a bunch of separate issues. Discussing your concerns with an experienced counselor gives you a opportunity to examine your situation in a supportive and constructive environment. This should help break what feels like a never ending cycle of worry and fear, and allows you to begin the healing process.

While anxiety can be caused by situations in your daily environment, it is sometimes not enough to address those issues. Often our past plays a role. It is important to examine the underlying factors that helped to create your anxiety. Emotional associations from the past, ways of dealing with problems, even basic attitudes toward life can be involved. Becoming aware of these factors and learning to work with them is one of the keys to recovery.

Anxiety can be treated in many ways. It is important to find a method, or combination of methods that work for you. Complex problems need a variety of solutions. A holistic approach is often most effective.

Holistic therapy looks at the whole person. All the dimensions of life are considered, whether social, spiritual or emotional. The primary focus is on achieving a balance for life improvement. Attacking the symptoms alone is not sufficient. Your mental and emotional health is influenced by all the factors in your life.

Holistic therapy can help you to understand and find better ways to manage these factors. Learning to find balance and using your inner strength will bring you the inner stability you need to endure unstable times. It takes a desire to change your life, and the help of the right counselor, but there is hope for a future free of anxiety.
