🌟 Quotes:

"If you leave your body, you’re going to die—because the mind-body connection is what keeps you here." — Monique

"I consider myself a spiritual explorer. I love playing with these ideas—what if there’s more to our existence than what we see and feel?" — Colin

"Robert Monroe could feel his body while astral travelling—so was he really ‘out’ of it? Maybe what we call ‘out-of-body’ is actually just out of our minds, in the best possible way." — Monique
