Amazon.com Review
Don't you love it when you pick up a book that immediately explains experiences you've had but had no explanation for when they occurred? This doesn't happen often, but it might with Astral Dynamics, Robert Bruce's straightforward how-to manual on astral projection. Perhaps you've had a spontaneous out-of-body experiences and didn't know it! This extensive tome teaches you everything you need to know to accomplish successful, planned out-of-body travel; how to exit the body, how to get around on the astral plane, and how to get back in with solid, provable memories of the event. Bruce writes very clearly and uses down-to-earth terminology so that you learn not only how to create a "real-time double" to astrally project but also about the physics of the nonphysical world. Out-of-body experiences can be so confusing that enjoying them or employing them usefully can be a serious challenge. Fortunately, Bruce now brings his 25 years of interdimensional experience to the aid of astral explorers the world over, and everywhere else too. --P. Randall Cohan

A practical manual for those who want to learn how to leave their body and undertake astral journey's... -- Journal of Consciousness Studies, Vol.7, No.7, p.92

This is a basic book on Astral traveling. Robert has refined his teaching of out-of-body experiences by helping people learn over the web for almost a decade. The book is original and the material is thought provoking. What I liked was that Robert stated how easy it is for anyone to soul travel and remember it. I have had personal experiences with out-of-body experiences but personally felt they were something that rarely happen for me. So I have been reading this book each night before I go to sleep and practicing the exercises. Last night I flew out of my bedroom, around my farm, and to the tops of my neighbors tall poplar trees. The colors were beyond the normal spectrum of intensity and it was night time. I then crashed into a tree and instantly jumped up in bed with the vivid memory. I believe this book is revolutionary. I think the techniques of seeing smoke rings raise up your body, relaxing it, and the image of pulling your inner body out with a spirit rope as you fall asleep are effective techniques. -- Michael Peter Langevin Magical Blend--#68

THE book for learning astral projection!
This is the most helpful, most satisfyingly complete book I've read on any metaphysical subject. Robert Bruce's thorough attention to every aspect of astral projection leaves no question unanswered. Most guides to astral projection give a few techniques and leave the reader feeling helpless when those techniques don't work. Bruce, on the other hand, gives you not only the easiest and most effective projection techniques, but also energy, chakra, relaxation, and trance exercises that will, with time and practice, strengthen your ability to project. He tells you all of the common reasons for failing to project and how to fix the problems, and gives advice for dealing with things that can cause a projection experience to be unpleasant (such as fear and negative entities). He even describes dimensions above the astral, and how to attempt a higher-than-astral projection. Also, this book is not only for astral projection. Bruce's well thought out theories on astral physics and how projection works provide interesting reading for anyone who just wants to study the phenomenon of Out-of-Body Experiences. His instructions on relaxation and inducing trances can be used for meditation. Those interested in metaphysics/magic(k)/psi will find his energy and chakra exercises refreshingly effective. Astral Dynamics is just plain great. If you want to seriously try astral projection and are willing to do the practice necessary for it, get this book. It's probably the best book on the subject, and certainly the only one you'll need. Thank you, Robert Bruce!

Recommended reading for students of metaphysics.
Robert Bruce has enjoyed spontaneous out-of-body experiences since childhood. As an adult, he learned how to project himself into the astral realm at will. He combines his experiences and more than twenty-five years of research in his newest book, Astral Dynamics: A NEW Approach to Out-of-Body Experience. NEW is capitalized because it stands for New Energy Ways, a technique for raising energy that Bruce developed. Projecting oneself from one's body requires high energy levels, and Bruce devotes significant portions of the book to energy skills. He emphasizes that persons who project themselves do not leave behind an "empty body" that can be harmed. Instead, "one full copy of thinking mind and memory--conscious and subconscious--stays at all times within the bounds of the physical body. . .this original or master copy never leaves the bounds of the physical body while it still lives." Nevertheless, it is important to prepare oneself first and establish a good foundation for safety before attempting an out-of-body projection. Bruce provides very detailed instructions for each step. Although most projectors have positive experiences, occasionally something negative can happen. He describes all these potential problems and how to overcome them. He also describes all the wonderful things that projectors can see while out of their bodies. Projectors can pass through solid objects, like walls. They can travel to the house next door or to galaxies beyond this one. They can search the Akashic Records. Advanced projectors can visit the spirit worlds. There doesn't seem to be any limit on where projectors can go or what they can do. Bruce says that "consciously projecting out of body is nowhere as difficult as commonly believed. It is simply a matter of deeply relaxing the physical body, clearing the mind, then triggering the projection reflex with an exit technique." He describes all the skills needed and provides exercises for developing those skills. After that, it's simply a matter of practicing until you're successful. He says his primary goal is "to create a user-friendly, readable and useful tutorial, guide, and reference work for all who aspire to travel out of their bodies." Readers of Astral Dynamics will find that his book easily meets that goal.

An excellent manual into Astral Projection!
After reading the many positive reviews given here atAmazon.com, I figured I'd give this book a try and bought it (via Amazon.com/uk). I have previously read many books on this subject, all of which had some interesting viewpoints yet none of which helped me leave my body. I'll start out by saying that I read the entire work (530 pages!) in two days, hardly getting anything else done during this time. From the beginning onto the end, this book fascinates and inspires.

Robert Bruce is an amazing writer, guiding the student lucidly while entertaining the same throughout. He shares his self-professed knowledge and experience without ever touching shaky ground. A fresh, innovative, and reinvented methodology on the esoteric art of astral projection is what the reader is given, untainted by jargon or conventional dogma.

I have found many modern authors of the "occult" to be copyists and little more. Any innovations on technique attempted by these authors are usually nothing more than analytical theory based on already existing principles. Mr. Bruce kicks all of this out the door and defines anew a science based on PERSONAL EXPERIENCE - not play on words. This is rare indeed.

The book has six parts:

I) Elements of Projection - Incredible introduction into the theories of Astral Projection. He gives thoroughly sound theory on the mechanics of OBEs.

II) New Energy Ways - A practical guide to the most effective energetic-development process I have ever tried. I now incorporate this practice with my daily rituals, followed by the Middle Pillar and Circulation of the Body of Light. The difference in power generated is astounding!

III) Core Skills - A more traditional guide to developing the fundamentals of any psychic ability, such as relaxation and concentration.

IV) Projection Exit and Technique - The heart of Astral Dynamics, this part will definately get you out of your body as it has me, provided you give it all a whole-hearted effort. The techniques are very powerful!

V) The Akashic Connection - A wonderful description of the astral planes to keep you inspired until you experience it yourself, plus some mind-boggling theories.

VI) Strange Astral Phenomena - A troubleshooting-guide that will armor you against most eventual problems.

All in all this is THE book on the subject of Astral Projection, the object of which is up to you. There is literally no limit to the possibilities once this ability is mastered. For you magicians out there I can say Astral Projection is the door to ALL mastery beyond mere spell-casting. This book is the key.
