For a very long time, I might hear voices and see faces each night time as I fell asleep. I might typically hear full conversations and discover myself making an attempt to take heed to them. Typically I might hear my identify being known as. And generally I might see random faces that I had by no means seen earlier than as clear as day.
Listening to Voices And Seeing Faces Is Half Of The Hypnagogic State
I bear in mind trying up the rationale for listening to voices and seeing faces and by no means discovering a cause I preferred for it (lots of people stated it stemmed from psychological illness). Ultimately, I ended listening to the voices and seeing the faces as a lot, so I ended making an attempt to determine what it was.
Proper now, I’m taking a brand new program via the Mindvalley Membership known as The Artwork of Astral Projection with Jade Shaw.
This course is correct up my alley. The one drawback is that I’ve made some lucid dreaming objectives for this yr and I don’t know whether or not I ought to attempt to have a lucid dream or give astral projection a strive! I need to do each each night time, to be sincere.
On day 5 of the search, Jade Shaw talks concerning the thoughts awake physique asleep state – or the Hypnagogic state.
She says that on this state, the thoughts is awake and conscious, however the physique is totally relaxed to the purpose the place you don’t even really feel it anymore. Sure! That’s once I used to listen to voices and see faces! I wasn’t essentially drifting off. My thoughts was alert regardless that my physique was totally relaxed.
She says that in this time, you’ll be able to have hallucinations, and:
- See colours
- See patterns
- See faces
- Hear voices
- Hear your identify getting known as
On this Hypnagogic state, you’ll be able to enter right into a lucid dream, however if you happen to discover a candy spot on this state and do an exit method, she says that you would be able to have interaction in astral projection.
Jade Shaw does say that you would be able to have these experiences whereas engaged in deep rest and meditation too, however the Hypnagogic state is ideal as a result of we already do it each night time and it’s simpler for most individuals.
The extra occasions you get up through the night time, the extra probabilities you need to do astral projection since you cross via that Hypnagogic state.
Alternatively, the hypnopompic state is once we are waking up from sleep and apparently some individuals have hallucinations throughout this time too. I by no means hear voices or see faces throughout this time, although. I at all times simply mirror on my goals throughout this time.
Jade Shaw hasn’t taught us the right way to discover that candy spot for astral projection but, however I’m glad I lastly have a solution about why I used to be at all times listening to voices and seeing faces whereas falling asleep.
Now that I do know what it’s, I want I had continued doing it. Isn’t it humorous how life works? I nonetheless often do it, however as a rule, I shut my eyes and go to sleep shortly.
I’m going to work on altering that.
The Hypnagogic Mindfulness Meditation
Final night time I did a meditation from Jade Shaw’s quest that’s supposed that will help you preserve your thoughts awake and your physique asleep. It labored! My thoughts was completely alert, and I couldn’t really feel my physique in any respect. However I didn’t have any of these hallucinations, regardless of making an attempt my finest.
I did discover myself enthusiastic about the Hypnagogic state each time I wakened, which is loads as a result of I flip very often through the night time, however no voices, no sounds, and no astral projection occurred.
There’s much more of the course to go, so I’m trying ahead to determining the place this candy spot is within the Hypnagogic state to expertise astral projection.
For now, I simply need to hear voices and see faces once more so I can know that I’m within the Hypnagogic state.
