Begin with Inner Wisdom, an introductory journey you can play in full, then continue with the original Astral Projection journey, which plays offline. Each session is yours to shape: choose how you are guided in, add a program, and finish with a wake or sleep ending. The journeys are made for quiet, focused listening with headphones, lying down in a safe place.
