Astral Expeditions
Astral projection meditation
The part most journeys skip: the vibration, the lift, the moment the room lets go of you - and then flight itself, with nowhere you have to be.
The Leaving is a session about the moment of takeoff, from the first tremor through the floor to the sense of the room falling away. You are then in flight over a night landscape without a destination.
All of it is done for you.
A quiet room where you rest and feel the weight of your body pressing into the surface beneath you.
This heaviness becomes a foundation, solid and grounding, as you notice the sensation of your arms and legs sinking deeper.
A faint hum begins in your core, spreading outward, turning your form into vibrating energy that feels lighter with each breath.

The Leaving Route
You begin by feeling the heaviness of your body sinking into the surface beneath you. A hum arises in your core, turning into a vibration that lifts you into a weightless drift.
The ascent carries you over a night landscape, seen as abstract shapes and lights below, before returning you to your resting form.

Where this place comes from
The Leaving draws on the universal image of ascent as a metaphor for release and expansion. The idea of a silver cord, keeping the traveler tethered to the physical world, appears in various traditions.
This journey uses the mechanics of vibration and lightness to create a sense of detachment and freedom, while the cord ensures a safe return.
It is a classic image of transcendence, grounded by the reassurance of connection.
Questions people ask
What if I fall asleep halfway through the session?
The session continues when you sleep, but the closing stage gently brings you back to full awareness at the end.
Will I get stuck in this experience?
No. The session includes a closing stage that guides you back naturally, and you can stop the audio or open your eyes at any time.
Is this experience real or am I imagining it?
It’s both. The session uses guided imagery to create a vivid experience, but how you interpret it is entirely personal.
Do I need to believe in this for it to work?
No. The session is designed to guide you regardless of belief, focusing on the sensations and rhythm of the experience.
Where it sits
Lift away, cross the night, and visit distant worlds or a quiet presence beyond our own.
These go further than the calmer journeys. You stay in control the whole time, and you can stop any time by opening your eyes and breathing. New to this? The journeys below are a softer place to start.
Why going here does anything
The steady rhythm of your breathing carries you into stillness, and the hum that follows allows your awareness to shift smoothly.
As you rise, the silver cord guides you back gently, ensuring a safe return to your resting body. The flight and descent are effortless, leaving you deeply relaxed and grounded.
Before you press play
- 16+. Age floor set in the catalogue, not by us on the day.
- The way back is built in. The silver cord remains unbroken, guiding you back to your resting body.
Hypnosis is not for everyone. If you have epilepsy, a psychotic illness, or you are under psychiatric care, talk to your clinician before using this — here or anywhere.
