I have a small suggestion for a starting book for you if you really want to practice. I read it, and I was like 'hey, this actually sounds right!' which surprised me and I bought it for my friend who was 'training' at the time. Anyway 'The Everything Psychic Book' (I know, sounds cheesy) has a lot of good places to start. Such as meditation to the third eye, and astral projecting. So, enjoy it if you read it and good luck tapping in!
i live far from any book store
I am also worried about my safety during meditation if i am in an open state does that mean's i am vulnerable?
