Hey everyone

I’m your host Vince

And in this episode of astral dimensions, we’re gonna be talking about something that I get asked about quite often

It’s something that has made a tremendous impact on my own astral projection practice.

I’m talking about energy work.

So what is energy work? 

Well, energy work is the practice of developing the energy body through various techniques which typically involve stimulating the energy body with your mind and awareness. 

So what is the energy body?

Well, The energy body is simply another term for the astral body, or spirit body.

It is a nonphysical body that is connected with the physical body during normal waking awareness

But it separates from the physical body during sleep and altered states of consciousness like astral projection

So in the case of an OBE, your consciousness goes from the physical body level of awareness which is attuned to the physical dimension, and it shifts into the energy body level of awareness, which is attuned to the astral dimension,

And you navigate the astral dimension from within the energy body

So the practice of energy work serves to develop this energy body

In other words, it makes it stronger, almost like how physical exercise makes the physical body stronger

And this can have a huge impact on astral projection 

Because the state and condition of the energy body affects the nature of one’s perceptions and movements and abilities and experiences in the astral dimension

The energy body resonates with a particular energetic frequency, just as the astral dimensions resonate at particular energetic frequencies

And so the astral dimension that you experience during an OBE is directly corelated with the frequency of your own energy body

It’s like the law of attraction – like attracts like

The energy body is attracted to the astral dimension of the same resonance. 

So when the energy body is in a low energetic state, it is attracted to lower dimensions, and this also affects your consciousness and perceptions. 

In a low energy state, your vision can be blurry, your senses will be dulled, your movement will be sluggish, and youll have an overall difficult time controlling your experience and remaining in the out of body state.

And on the other hand, when your energy body is in a high energetic state, youll be able to enter higher dimensions of a heavenly nature, your perceptions will be clear and radiant, you’ll have access to higher spiritual states of consciousness, and youll have a high degree of control over your experience.

And energy work is one of the best ways to heighten the energetic state of the energy body. 

So I’m sure it makes sense as to why this practice is so important and beneficial to an astral projector.

And what’s cool about energy work is that it can be done at any time. 

You can do it while watching tv, or sitting at your office desk doing some computer work,

You can do it while meditating or during your astral projection attempts

You can even do it during an astral projection, while out of body.

And in my experience, the stronger your altered state of consciousness is, the stronger the effect that energy work has.

So if you’re fully awake, you’ll be able to feel the energy, usually just mildly

During deep meditation you’ll be able to feel the energy more strongly

And if you’re already in the out of body state, energy work can have a shockingly intense and profound effect.

So let me go into some detail about how energy work is performed.

The practice of energy work requires a type of tactile awareness visualization, as opposed to the common visualization method of creating mental images. It involves moving your point of awareness through the body, focusing on the feeling within the body at each location and moving this feeling in various ways, in different directions and through different pathways throughout the body. The movement of awareness stimulates the energy body in whatever particular part of the body you focus on. 

Now The energy body consists of a complex system of energy centers and energy pathways that are intimately connected with the physical body. It’s commonly believed that there are seven major energy centers that are located along the spine between the tailbone and the top of the skull, and hundreds of minor centers located throughout the body. These energy centers are called chakras, which is a Sanskrit word for wheel, because they are generally perceived as spiraling vortexes or wheels of energy. And I’ve had more than enough experiences which have proven to me that all of this is true. These chakras and energy centers and energetic pathways do exist and they can be experienced during all states of consciousness, from normal waking consciousness, to deep meditative states, and most powerfully in higher dimensions of nonphysical reality, where we’re fully tapped in to deeper levels of our consciousness and can experience energetic states far beyond anything possible while grounded in the physical body.

So what I’m going to do is share some of my experiences with energy work. I’m going to go through the techniques that I’ve used and describe the effects and results. But before I do that, I want to mention that I learned a lot of these techniques from Robert Bruce’s book called Energy Work. And if you’re interested in doing a deep dive into energy work, I definitely recommend his book, although I’m going to give you plenty of information here which will be more than enough to start your own energy work practice or perhaps add some new tools to your energy work toolbelt if you already do it.

So When I first started my energy work practice, I would generally do it during my meditation sessions in the afternoon and before sleep while lying in bed. 

And What was incredible to me was that I was able to really feel this energy almost instantly, and it would usually get stronger as the session went on. It feels like a pleasant buzzing, tingling, vibrational sensation, although the intensity can really get cranked up as you get deeper into it to a point where it may even get uncomfortable, especially when the chakras are activated.

So I would meticulously go through my entire body, moving my awareness through each bone, joint, muscle and organ to ensure that I stimulated every possible area of my energy body starting from my feet and ending in my head. I would usually sweep my awareness back and forth through my bones, and rotate, expand and contract my awareness through each joint. And doing this is simply a matter of putting the entirety of your focus on these particular areas within your body and really feeling that area. I would then perform various awareness bounces through larger areas of my body, such as my arms, legs, spine, and finally my entire body. 

Now, The chakras are generally stimulated with these larger energy movements, particularly the ones through the spine, because that is where the chakras are located. However, I would also take time to raise energy into each chakra and stimulate them, first pulling and sweeping my awareness from my feet through my legs and into my root chakra at the base of the spine. I would then perform various awareness movements in the chakra, such as rotations, expansions and contractions, using both standard visualization and tactile awareness, so in other words, I would use the typical energy work technique of feeling the chakra and moving my awareness through and around it, and I would also visualize the chakra in my mind’s eye, which actually seemed to intensify the effect. I would then move up to the next chakra, raising energy up from my feet, passing it through the chakra that I had previously stimulated, and bringing my awareness into the next highest chakra and stimulating that one in the same way. And I would go through this process all the way up to the crown chakra at the top of my head. 

Now, the amount of time you should spend doing energy work is a personal choice. There’s no right or wrong. Of course, the longer you spend doing it, the more development you’ll potentially get from it. I can’t say if there’s a sweet spot in terms of how long you want to limit your energy work sessions. So with physical exercise, generally speaking, rigorous workouts over an hour can start to actually be counterproductive, so the ideal training time may be somewhere from 45 minutes to an hour. I personally haven’t pushed the limits of my energy work practice, but I would keep my sessions between half an hour and 45 minutes on average, and I think that is a solid amount of time to spend doing energy work if you’re serious about it. Of course, anything is better than nothing, so even short sessions of ten minutes can be beneficial.

So at the very beginning of my practice, there seemed to be some resistance in moving my awareness through my body, and this was likely due to some energy blockages and overall lack of the skill of manipulating my energy body in a general sense. but after some practice, it got easier and my energy body quickly developed, which gave rise to all kinds of interesting energetic sensations and phenomena, and more importantly, it improved the quality of my OBEs. I saw a direct correlation with my energy work practice and an improved clarity of my out of body perceptions and ability to progressively enter higher and higher dimensions.

And after a while, I didn’t need to be so meticulous with my energy work techniques, where I would stimulate every nook and crevice of my energy body. Simply a broad and long movement of my awareness was all that was needed to stimulate the entire area, since the smaller energy centers and pathways were already awakened and developed. So I would perform circuits in which I’d move energy from toes, up through my feet and legs, through my torso and upper body and finally through my arms and head, and then reverse or bounce my awareness back down, and then bounce it back up, just bouncing my awareness up and down until my entire energy body was buzzing strongly with energy.

Or if I was lying with my arms resting on my sternum with my fingers crossed, I’d bring the energy up from my feet and then split it through my arms, creating a loop of energy through the arms that would connect through the hands, and then bring it through the heart chakra and up to my head, and then bounce it back down, doing the same arm loop and sweeping it down to the feet.

So I was doing energy work every chance I had. At school. At work. On the bus. In the car. At home. And I would multitask, so part of my awareness would be stimulating my energy body while I’d be reading or writing, or eating, or talking to someone, or doing this or that. As long as I could keep my body relatively still, I was doing energy work. And of course I still do it to this day. It’s Like the analogy I made before of doing physical exercises to strengthen the body, you wouldn’t stop working out just because you’ve reached a high enough level of physical fitness. It’s part of a healthy lifestyle, and if you don’t use it, you lose it. Now, since I’m constantly active with my meditative and astral projection activities, my energy body is continuously being stimulated even without doing energy work. 

So let’s say you’re an athelete, a high jumper. You want to increase the height of your jump, so you spend months training in the gym, strengthening your muscles and increasing your speed and power. And now youre able to jump higher than ever before. Well, if you stop those vigorous workouts that allowed you to reach that new level, but you continue to practice the sport, you continue to use those muscles, you aren’t going to lose your ability. At worst you’ll maintain that jumping height, so long as you don’t stop practicing the sport on a regular basis and you keep using those muscles. And who knows, maybe over time with enough practice, you’ll slowly gain some height on your jump just from practicing the sport itself.

So this is what it’s like with energy work. We do it to strengthen the energy body, eliminate energy blockages and heighten its frequency to attune to higher dimensions. And once you reach that higher level, that higher energy state, you’re there. That’s your new base. And as long as you continue using the energy body and projecting into higher dimensions, you’ll maintain that ability without needed to do specific energy work techniques. And it is certainly possible to develop the energy body without doing energy work, just like you can increase your stamina by walking, assuming you came from a very low stamina state. Any kind of exercise or use of the body will have a positive effect on your health. But compare walking to heavy weight training and rigorous cardiovascular exercise. The latter will give you far better and faster results. And that’s the idea with energy work.

So, I explained what energy work is, why we do it, and I gave you the foundation for any energy work technique. It’s simply a matter of focusing your awareness on specific areas within the body and moving it in various ways in order to stimulate the energy. So now that you have all of the necessary knowledge to begin your own energy work practice, I’d like to share some interesting experiences that I’ve had with energy work so you get an idea of how you can use it to improve your astral projection practice.

So one time I was attempting to leave my body, and I reached the vibrational stage and felt myself floating upwards. But there was a dense energetic sensation in the pit of my stomach, around my naval chakra to be exact, and I realized that I was stuck. My upper body was floating above my physical body and my legs were floating above my physical legs, but I was still attached to my body at my midsection. So I began to draw energy into my feet and brought it up through my body, passing through the area that seemed to have a blockage where I was stuck, up to my head, and bouncing it back down. Almost immediately an intense surge of energy built up through my chakra circuit and my chakras began pulsing with what felt like ecstasy. It was an incredibly blissful feeling. And the next thing I knew I was completely free from my body and went on to have an awesome OBE.

---------------

Another morning I decided to have an OBE, so after a brief meditation I shifted from my body, but I was in a low energy state. My vision wasn’t clear, the room I was in was pretty dark, and I was struggling to move freely. So I decided to reenter my body and power up. So with that intention I found myself back in my body, lying in bed, although I still had a nonphysical attunement, or in other words, I was still attuned to my energy body rather than my physical body, although they weren’t separated so they occupied the same space. So with the intention of raising my energy levels, I did about a minute of energy work, bouncing my awareness from my head to my feet until my energy was flowing quickly and vibrating strongly. Feeling like that was sufficient, I floated up out of my body and was now in a higher energetic state, with clear and radiant perceptions and an ability to move around with ease.

During this experience, I visited and communicated with my grandmother and was informed that I was actually interacting with her higher consciousness, as her physical level of awareness was awake in physical reality. I then shifted into an even higher dimension and had an incredible experience which involved more abstract and symbolic elements. 

Another time I projected from my body and I was in complete darkness. Usually my vision would manifest moments after separation, but this time it didn’t. I knew that I needed to do something to increase my level of consciousness, so I started doing an energy work circuit, drawing in energy from my feet, bringing it up to my head and then bouncing it back down. Well, this immediately produced an incredibly powerful energetic surge that absolutely blew me away. It was stronger than any energetic sensation I had ever had doing energy work before. After several full body energy bounces, my entire chakra circuit was exploding with this higher level energy, and within moments the environment around me came into my vision. I was on what seemed like another planet. It was just so different from what I was used to seeing in the physical world. There were these huge structures that looked like a mixture between giant trees and large rock formations, and they were everywhere, like skyscrapers in NYC. And these things that kinda reminded me of dandelions but they were huge, like the size of a big beach ball, and they seemed to be made of light, or they were lit up somehow, and they were floating around all over. And I could sense that there was an intelligence to them, like they were alive. And Everything glistened with a radiance that permeated the atmosphere, like you could visibly see the higher level energies that everything resonated with. 

So these three experiences should give you an idea of how you can use energy work to enhance your own OBEs.

In the first experience I was partially projected but still attached to my physical body and unable to break free, so then and there I did some energy work and it effectively removed the energy blockage that kept me stuck, and I was able to freely project from my body.

In the second experience, I left my body and realized that I was in a low energy state, so I temporarily reentered my body and did some energy work, and when I projected again I was then in a high energy state which allowed me to enter a higher dimension.

And in the third experience, I left my body in a low energy state, but rather than reentering my body to do the energy work, I did it then and there, while still out of body, and it had a tremendous effect that resulted in my shifting into a higher otherworldly dimension.

So these are some approaches to keep in mind if you ever run into similar issues during your astral projection attempts. Of course, prevention is the best medicine, or in this case, preparation. Incorporating energy work in your astral projection method is a great way to ensure that you’ll be projecting in a high energy state. I’d recommend at least five minutes of energy work prior to beginning your projection induction technique. Not only will this serve to prevent a low energy state upon projecting, but it can also improve the effectiveness of your separation technique.

So I hope this information is helpful. Feel free to get in touch with me if you have any additional questions on the subject. You can find links to my social media accounts in the episode description. And I’d also like to mention that my podcast has a new sponsor, a super cool merch company called third eye transcending, they have awesome original designs and some of them are really funny too, it’s like a fusion of spirituality and humor, so please support the show by checking out their shop, which is linked in the description. they sent me some of their tshirts and they’re super comfortable and I love how just wearing these shirts sends a message about who I am as a spiritual practitioner. Honestly I think we could make connections with so many more people within our community if what we wore was more of a reflection of who we are, so that’s something that I absolutely love about this. And I’m super blessed to be a part of it. 

So I’d like to thank everyone for listening. In the next episode I’m gonna be sharing some amazing experiences that I’ve had some with one particular type of higher level entity, and it’s something that I don’t hear much about from other astral projectors, so I’m sure it’ll be an awesome show. Talk to you next time.
