How can I cleanse myself of bad luck??
Here's what you do: convince yourself that it's a good luck streak! Find any way possible to say “I'm so lucky this happened”, even if you have to lie to yourself a little bit. And before you completely have to lie to yourself, try to find any positives that can come out the experience. For example, if you're feeling like, “I'm so unlucky, I dropped my Pepsi. Just before I reached my mouth, I spilled it all over myself". But then, try to think about it this way: "I'm so grateful that that happened because honestly, Pepsi is so bad for me and I shouldn't be drinking it. My body doesn't need it. My body clearly doesn't want it. I'm so grateful I dropped it”. Try tricking your mind, because the more you tell yourself you have bad luck, the more bad luck is going to come to you. Instead, take steps to develop your reality...just tell yourself, “These things that are happening to me are just my life”.
I want to learn how to astral project
First off, you want to be able to have the ability to lucid dream. If you can lucid dream, then you can astral project. There are some different techniques for approaching it; some people try to do it from a waking state, where they lie down and literally try to separate the consciousness from the body. Personally, I've never experienced that. In my experience, I've found that lucid dreaming and training myself to wake up from the unconscious state to the conscious state was a lot gentler and a more natural transition. Waking up in your dream and then not immediately waking yourself up takes getting used to, but once you get the hang of feeling like “Okay, I'm awake in the dream. That's okay. Now, I can just roam around and hopefully not wake myself up”, then it’s cool, and it's just a fun thing to do!
