The aim of using a psychedelic substance (especially DMT and psilocybin) is to achieve an out-of-body experience.
For this to be done safely, preparation is also appropriate and necessary. Without preparation, there is a risk of entering dimensions that are too low, which can be an unpleasant experience. In another case, a person can enter a dimension that is vibrationally almost the same as this one, which is not good for development.
Good preparation will allow you to experience an out-of-body experience even with a relatively low dose of a psychedelic/dissociative substance and experience it more consciously and fully.
Preparation includes:
-Dreaming, Lucid Dreaming: in sleep, a person always has a "spiritual" body a few centimeters above the physical body. This is partial astral travel. Lucid dreaming is a great advantage. But a big plus and a great advantage is also the training of the ability to remember dreams as such.
– You need to train your ability to tune your consciousness to higher dimensions. For example, this meditation is good.
– "energizing" your consciousness or spiritual body based on conscious breathing, "sucking" energy from high sources, from the Absolute. This will help you experience it more consciously.
