Remote Viewing – How Even A Complete Novice Can Get Started
Written by Vicki Porter on November 24th, 2009 in Self Development.
What is remote viewing? How do you know if you’re doing it right? Remote viewing is the ability to see people, places and things with your mind’s eye instead of with your five senses.
Remote viewing is not the same as astral traveling. With astral traveling, your ethereal body is able to leave your physical body and travel incorporeally to be able to view something. Instead, your mind is doing all the work using the power of your sub-conscious mind.
How do you know whether or not you can learn remote viewing? Simply, because everyone can. How successful you are at it depends on whether you can relax into a trance state that is very similar to the awareness you experience when you’re hypnotized.
Experts have long stated that we only use about 10% of our minds’ capacity, but the other 90%, for most of us, is left untapped and untrained. As one illustration of this, think of learning a foreign language. Children who speak four languages from childhood do so fluently, with those neural pathways firmly established, such that they do so easily and without struggle. It’s the same with any ability; skills in basic math or reading are taught early so that those neural pathways are firmly established as soon as possible. They become part of your mind’s ability and power, and you think nothing of them.
However, what if you had been taught to access your subconscious mind and its powers from the beginning of your life, as a small child? You may not have this ability developed right now, but you can develop it. It just means you haven’t used it, and you need to train your mind to both see and use this ability that has been hidden until now.
Before you start to practice remote viewing, how will you get ready? Relaxation is key, and learning meditation is one great way to teach your mind to get into the state it needs to be in, in order to practice remote viewing. Self hypnosis, too, is another good way to ‘practice’ the relaxation and trance like state you’re going to have to be in to be able to do remote viewing.
However, just because your body is relaxed doesn’t mean your mind should be. It’s very, very easy when you’re first learning how to do this to fall asleep when you simply want your body to relax, so make sure your mind is alert even as your body is relaxed.
With remote viewing, how will you test results? It’s a good idea to plan this ahead of time.
One of the best ways to choose views that you can ‘test’ is to choose places you already know. For example, if you know a friend’s home well and know what it usually looks like, try to look at it in your mind’s eye through remote viewing. Is anything out of place? For example, are there books or papers scattered about that aren’t usually there, in the living room? Are dishes or plates set out on the counter in the kitchen?
These are small things, to be sure, but they can tell you whether or not you’re seeing what’s actually happening. Once you’ve come back from your remote viewing session, call your friend and verify what you saw.
When you’ve practiced remote viewing, how to relax properly will become easier each time you do it. Soon, you’ll find that you’re able to relax easily and the technique itself will become much more fluid as well.
