Extras
Paranormal - The Mind
Ever wondered if aliens exist or if there are presences in your house? Who didn't...
But if they REALLY exist, have you ever seen one of them? In this Extras section, which will continually change, I am going to talk about the paranormal. Lets start with the first part, the MIND.
The mind, as you all know, is the one that makes us dream, that makes us think, that makes us imagine. Is the mind, though, actually making up all those things you actually thought they were true? Heard a sound from the kitchen? Seen a figure right behind you while you're washing your teeth? ARE YOU SURE YOU SAW OR HEARD WHAT YOU ACTUALLY DID? Is the mind tricking you?
The mind, therefore, is quite an amazing subject, and I'll start off by saying that we will never know enough about it. Freud and other psychologists used to hypnotise their "victims" in order to find out more about them. When we get hypntoised, whoever hypnotised us is able to read through all of our thoughts, but most of all to control and change anything in our mind. Many use this technqiue to remember very remote events, such as, believe it or not, their BIRTH. Others use it, instead, to fight a phobia, for example to be less scared of spiders. Thus, the mind, when hypnotised, is totally vulnerable.
Yet their are times when we can actually control it in someway, and that is in our dreams. During our dreams, we are totally subconscious, yet ever had one of those dreams when you actually KNOW you're dreaming? These are rare types of dreams, and they are called, for example, CONSCIOUS dreams. During these, you can try to have an outer body experience, during which your mind, or the so called Inner Body, literally gets out of your physical body. Once you're out, you can walk around, but be sure not to go too far away from your really body. To do this, when you're having a conscious dream, think that the dream must stop, not that you want to wake up, but that you want your dream to stop. There will be a short period when the dream will disappear, and you'll just see the back of your eyelids, but then, you'll feel a tingling sensation, during which your soul will get out of your physical body. To get into your body again, you have to WANT to get into your body again. I tried this once, while I was sleeping, but to tell you the truth, as soon as I felt the body (seriously) all tingling and weird, I stopped thinking about the dream to stop, and woke up. I'm not sure if I want to try it again, but I still think it's a wonderful experience.
Said that, I'll see you in the next section!!
