Thread: Help with Flying

There's not really a technique to teach you how to fly, but you just have to KNOW you can fly. It helps me to think, "This is a lucid dream. I can do anything I want!"
I guess if that doesnt work, try visualizing it? I usually don't have a problem flying, but for you, the best thing that would work if the first option doesn't is thinking of a different place, (If you wanted down)
or think of a reason you SHOULD be flying.

this always works for me pick up an object and say to yourself this will make me fly and i cant fly without it and you will belive oyu can fly with it

I had sort of the same problem with this too, briman007. When you're having trouble with controlling something, switch it up, try a different way of visualizing it (which you did, so good job).

The one that works magic for me is imagining an invisible platform up against my feet (when I'm in the superman pose), and it pushes me through the air. I can get a lot of speed with this technique, because the thing propelling me is very powerful, I don't have to imagine that I'm exerting any kind of force. The force is behind me.

Other people like to imagine that they're being pulled in by something. You could try focusing on an object in the distance and feel a pull towards it.

This is the only reason you couldn't move.
I know I've repeated this a few times on different posts, so I'm sorry for sounding like a parrot.
In your dreams the laws of physics are bound by what you know. If you know that you can fly around with no problem, you can. If you know that you lack the knowledge how, you do. If you know that you know, then you do.
In order to fly all you have to do is KNOW that you can. Just do it, and expect it to happen.

try to flap your wings

I used to have a problem flying. And then after months of practice I can do it now.

Try to imagin yourself flying. Or say I will fly, I will fly. Maybe that will help.

I have used a few methods, of course none of them work 100% of the time....

1) Imagine a rocket underneath your feat pushing you up

2) pretend up is down - this works for me indoors, I can fly down a hallway by almost adjusting what i feel is up and down

3) Associate a video game controller with it...for instance I use Second Life and in the world/game you use Page up key to fly, once in awhile picturing hitting the page up button will allow me to fly.

but if anyone has full proof way i would love to hear it, flying consistently always has been an issue for me
