Controlled Remote Viewing Made Simple: Your Path to Mastery Starts Here

What Is Remote Viewing?
Okay, let’s break this down. Controlled Remote Viewing (CRV) is like giving your mind a passport to explore places, people, and events—no matter where (or when) they are. Imagine tuning into a distant location or a moment in time, all without leaving your couch. Sounds wild, right? But here’s the thing: it’s not about crystal balls or mystical visions. Nope. CRV is a learnable skill—a step-by-step process that helps your subconscious tap into information that’s usually out of reach.

Think of it as your mind’s way of saying, “Hey, I’ve got this!”


Who Uses Remote Viewing—and Why?
So, who’s out there using this superpower? Turns out, a lot of people. Law enforcement, corporations, and even curious individuals turn to remote viewing when the usual methods just don’t cut it.

Picture this:

  • Solving historical mysteries (like, where did Amelia Earhart go?)
  • Describing the contents of a locked safe
  • Mapping out a distant, top-secret location

It’s like being a detective, but instead of a magnifying glass, you’re using your mind.


What Are Viewers Trying to Perceive?
Here’s where it gets fun. Remote viewers are tasked with uncovering things that are otherwise hidden. It could be:

  • A faraway location
  • An event from the past (or even the future!)
  • A hidden object
  • Or just about anything that’s out of reach

And the coolest part? They often sketch or describe what they “see” during the session. It’s like doodling your way to discovery.


The Goal of CRV: Tapping the Subconscious
At its core, remote viewing is all about letting your subconscious do the heavy lifting. It’s like your inner Sherlock Holmes, gathering impressions from beyond the five senses and translating them into words, sketches, or symbols.

Oh, and here’s the kicker: viewers don’t know what they’re “looking” at beforehand. This keeps the process unbiased and the info as pure as possible.


Do You Need to Be Psychic?
Nope. Nada. Not even a little. CRV isn’t about being psychic—it’s about learning a skill. Sure, if you’re naturally intuitive, you might pick it up faster, but anyone can do this with a little training and practice.


Using All the Senses in Remote Viewing
Remote viewing isn’t just about “seeing.” It’s a full sensory experience. You might:

  • Smell saltwater
  • Feel the chill of stone under your feet
  • Sense a mood—like celebration or danger
  • Hear birds chirping or machinery humming

Sometimes these impressions are subtle, even symbolic, but they’re all part of the puzzle.


It’s Not Astral Travel
Let’s clear this up: CRV is not about leaving your body. You’re not floating around like a ghost. It’s a mental process, not a metaphysical one. Think of it as “seeing with your inner eye,” as researcher Rosemary Ellen Guiley put it.


A Pioneer of CRV: Ingo Swann
Meet Ingo Swann, the guy who helped put CRV on the map. Back in the 1970s, he teamed up with physicists at Stanford Research Institute to develop this technique. His work even inspired military programs like the CIA’s Star Gate Project. (Yes, that’s a real thing!)


Clearing the Mind: Avoiding Analytical Overlay
Here’s the tricky part: your brain loves to overthink. That inner voice? The one that’s like, “Oh, this must be a beach because I smell saltwater”? That’s called analytical overlay (AOL), and it can totally mess with your session.

The key is to quiet the noise and let the impressions flow. Easier said than done, but hey, practice makes perfect.


How Is Remote Viewing Used?
CRV has a ton of applications, like:

  • Finding missing people or objects
  • Solving cold cases
  • Exploring your own past or future
  • Locating resources (hello, hidden treasure!)
  • Understanding historical events

Basically, if it’s out of reach, CRV might just be the tool to bring it closer.


How to Practice Remote Viewing: A Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Find a Monitor
    Grab a buddy to guide your session. They’ll pick the targets and keep you focused.

  2. Create a Target Pool
    Have your monitor choose five cool images (places, objects, events) and seal them in envelopes. Assign each a random number—your “coordinate.”

  3. Cool Down
    Take a few minutes to clear your mind. Think of it as a mental reset.

  4. Begin the Session
    Write down your name, date, time, and the coordinate. This locks in your intention.

  5. Perceive with All Your Senses
    Describe everything—light, dark, hot, cold, smells, sounds, emotions. Don’t hold back.

  6. Sketch Your Impressions
    Draw whatever comes to mind. Even if it’s just squiggles, it might make sense later.

  7. Use Movement Techniques
    Mentally “zoom out” or change perspectives to gather more details.

  8. End the Session
    When the impressions stop, say “End” aloud and note the time.

  9. Write a Summary
    Recap your session: what you saw, felt, heard, etc.

  10. Get Feedback
    Open the envelope and compare your impressions to the actual target.

  11. Keep Practicing
    The more you practice, the better you’ll get.


Final Thoughts: A Journey Within
Remote viewing isn’t just about accuracy—it’s about self-discovery. It’s a chance to explore the hidden corners of your mind and see what’s possible.

So, let go of the need to be “right.” Embrace the process, the curiosity, and yes, even the flops. Because every session is a step closer to unlocking your potential.
