Welcome to Gaia! ::

I have a buch of ramblings and theories in my guild about this stuff, so I'll just give you the links. My main theories are in the first post or two. Some of it is pretty old, though. I really ought to go back and add in more info. In any case, here we go:

On Astral Travel

On The Kashic (or Akashic) Records

Astral Tips and Tricks

As far as healing goes, I think that it works very well. If the human mind and good intentions couldn't have any effect on our health, then why would placebos work every time in the lab? There must be some kind of power in our thoughts and emotions.

Anyway, this is how I do a general emotional/spiritual healing:

Before doing a healing, I start out on myself first. Otherwise my own issues and any stagnant energies could contaminate the other person. So I do a cleansing exercise, followed by one for focusing. I have a bunch of meditation music...my favorite is recordings of those "singing bowls" (which are insanely expensive to buy).

At the same time, I usually have the other person attempt to do some breathing meditation, which they can focus on for the duration of the healing. Pretty much anyone can at least manage a breathing meditation...and it gives them something to do.

In this case...I just started out running my hands over her aura to see what areas feel off. For me, it's usually a hot or cold spot.

Before I do anything, I try to take some of that negative energy away from the problem areas, and do a little on the rest of the body. I use my left hand for this. I have to be sure I'm really well-grounded, because I am NOT taking this energy, it's just passing through to the earth to be cleansed there. Retaining this negative energy is very unhealthy (yes, even for "psi-vampires").

After the cleansing, the problem areas don't feel as bad, but they're lacking in energy. They kind of feel like holes...now I usually try to refocus myself and draw in positive energy to give to this person. I do a lot for the problem spots, and go over the rest of the body a little bit to be sure it's balanced and feels whole. This is the part that is the actual healing.

Before wrapping things up, I go over the aura a few more times to make sure everything feels right. I make sure to sever the connections made for the healing, so no energy gets unconsciously leaked between us after the healing is done.

Basically, this type of healing is a cleansing and an energy tansfusion combined. It's a little back-asswards, but it's good to try different things and see what works best.

Healing is probably the best thing you can do for practice, because it's very hard to mess up as long as you take the right precautions.

Healing: Trying to recreate natural systems within a persons body.
= A b***h much of the time
It takes a bit of familiarity with the system. I usually would only even try to do something like this to someone I know well. Sometimes delving and trying to reconstruct what it may have been like before the damage can work.

Its a lot easier when you know whats wrong and how to fix it first. Trying to figure out whats wrong without a direction is kinda difficult.

I prefer to only heal/fix energy systems rather then anything physical because that can be a lot easier. for physical healing I rely a lot more on my subconscious to understand how everything is supposed to work and just lend my energy to that general purpose.

With healing or fixing energy systems I would usually question a person on what may be wrong. I would then try to read the energy system try to find any irregularities in flow or purpose. Then I would send a flow of energy through the person going through energy channels trying to fix them and align them to do what the person wants them to do.

Any blocks in flow I would try to smooth out so that nergy would be able to flow through the rest of the system.

I might put in place a few buffers. Just normal parts to a system.

Though I really am not sure if you want to know about healing energy systems or not.

In any case its mostly repairing and altering binds to try to rebuild a previous system or structure.

I know things about libraries not necessarily the Akashic records.

As to Astral Projection. Its creating an energetic form then moving your soul/locus of influence into that form.

There are many ways to attain the same affect
Edit/ I didn't notice the post advising against writing about techniques etc.

Thank you ^_____^.
