Hello there! First off let me say that this article is for those who already have a rock solid belief in telekinesis. This article will not try to prove it or try to explain it. Telekinesis takes a vast amount of time, effort and motivation to achieve.
Personally it took me about three months of on and off practise just to move a piece of paper balanced on a thumbtack (here on referred to as a "psiwheel"). Of course it takes different amounts of effort for different people.
Before I move onto specific techniques let’s talk about objects that are easy to start off on. After all, very few people begin on pens! The psiwheel. Probably the object most practised on. Quite simply it’s a piece of paper (or tinfoil if you’re having trouble) resting on a pin, thumbtack or anything else with a point.
It really doesn’t matter how you fold the paper to fit on the thumbtack as long as it stays. Fold the top left corner of the paper to the bottom right corner. Crease it, and then unfold it. Now fold the top right corner to the bottom left corner. Crease it. Now balance the paper on the thumbtack.
The purpose here is to spin the paper. Unfortunately because there’s such a small amount of friction on the psiwheel wind or heat from your hands can spin it. The last thing you want is to have it spin and later find out it was just the open window! So either make sure there are no drafts, open doors or put a glass jar over the psiwheel.
Floating toothpick.
Simple and accessible, simply get a toothpick (or anything that floats) and a container of water. Put the object in the water and try and move it. Or try and move the water around the toothpick.
Pendulum.
This is great to practice on. With the toothpick and psiwheel you’re limited in the directions you can move them, but with a pendulum you’ve a lot more freedom. Most people forget about this: The earth DOES spin underneath the pendulum. So when affecting its movement rather then starting the movement, be careful.
Moving on to bigger things now! The empty soda can. If you’re having troubles with this one there are different things you can try to make it easier. Roll it down a slope and try to slow it’s descent. Or balance it on the edge of a table. Get creative!
The pen or pencil. This one is a toughie. Most people never get to this point and if you’re ready to practice on these then congratulations! Be proud! As with the soda can try putting it on slopes, or instead of starting the movement trying rolling it with your finger and reversing the direction with telekinesis. Well that’s probably enough of things to practice on to keep you busy for a long time. Of course there are lots of ideas out there. Try balloons or bubbles! Try moving ice cubes. Anything with low friction will work fine. So lets stop discussing things to practice on and get to the practice!
There are three main things you can do to make telekinesis work for you. One is to visualize. Try visualizing “energy” coming from you and moving the object. Try different things out; try being very detailed or very simple. Trying visualizing “energy” as different things, such as electricity or fire or a certain color. The next thing is to feel the object moving. Have you ever been pushed by a force other then yourself? How did it feel? Try and project that feeling onto the object. If you want to move the object forwards, put yourself in the objects shoes, how would it feel? It sounds silly... but then again... you’re reading an article on how to move things with your mind. The final technique and the one I use the most is simply willing the object to move. I think Nina says it better then I do: “I think nothing but the object, and it moving.” personally this works the best for me but it seems different techniques work for different people.
The conscience blues. One thing that a lot of psions believe is that telekinesis is managed by the subconscious rather then the conscience. I personally believe that not only does the subconscious control telekinesis but that if you think too hard your conscience will get in the way or inhibit the subconscious. A way to combat this is to keep trying to move the object but at the same time distract yourself with something else. Watching some television while trying to move an object is a great cure.
More specific techniques. Try visualizing the object you’re moving as positively charged. Then imagine a positive charge near the object slowly becoming more powerful. Just like magnets. Another technique I use is to imagine waves emanating from yourself, affecting the object. Slowly becoming more intense over time.
Some last little words of advice. Developing telekinesis takes a long time. There’s a very good chance your patience will draw thin. It took me about 6 months all together to move anything other then the psiwheel. Do I think it was worth it? Not really. It literally gives me headaches and makes me sleepy. But along with a cool party trick I learnt to be patient. I learnt to concentrate. Maybe in a few years I’ll stop practicing telekinesis. But the patience and concentration I learnt from practicing will be with me forever. If telekinesis is something you’re really into then I advise you to dedicate time 6 days week to it.
Good luck with your endeavors into telekinesis! There’s a vast amount of knowledge on the subject at http://www.psipog.net/ and http://www.psilinks.co.nr/ Of course don’t trust everything you see on the internet be skeptical and be smart. Best of wishes.

I discovered that its actually a fine balance between, or rather a 'fusion' of both the conscious and the subconscious - what I call the 'neutral point' - being a 'third state' other than conscious (positive) and subconscious (negative).
In effect to bring psychokinesis into effect, one is trying to enter into the hypnagogic state - no matter how short in duration - and if successful then a demonstration of mind over matter will occur, because in this fusion between conscious and subconscious, matter and mind - which is usually divided, accounting for all duality - become as one energy.
This is how Jesus was able to "walk on water" - a parable or allegory in regard to this potential power within us all to be able to warp or distort the default parameters of consensus reality.
In the hypnagogic state, one is awake and asleep at the same time or neither - again a third state and rather a fusion in consciousness between two opposite states. This is a quantum state of consciousness; an ecliptic state, like the Live-dead cat in quantum theory. Matter becomes mind and mind becomes matter. In fact the division between mind and matter is an illusion and this illusion is our reality - in which the one energy is divided between opposites that interfere with each other creating all the information patterns we perceive and experience. One has to be divided in oneself - one's mind or consciousness - to experience this illusion and believe it to be real. So then the secret to experience the REAL in reality must again be a fusion of these two energies within one's consciousness, and this accounts for the 'androgynous being' - half male and half female - depicted in alchemical images and also the fusion between the sun and moon - eclipse.
Again your words . . .

. . . are relevant, because the secret in being able to generate a synchronicity, like telekinesis, or any psychic ability really, is again a fusion of opposites, and one generates a synchroniciity by being intensely interested in something and then in the next instant disinterest - i.e., taking one's mind off it, or forgetting about it totally by being distracted. Then the subject that you thought about will suddenly reappear in reality, in what you see, read or hear - as if reflecting back at you what was on your mind. Again this reveals that a fusion between mind (internal thoughts) and matter (external events) is taking place.
So, interest and disinterest at the same time - again a fusion of opposites.
As strange as this might sound, that's how these phenomena - indeed all paranormal and mystical phenomena and one's experience of it, works . . . a fusion of opposites - always and its difficult to reach that state of balance or fusion because its like trying to balance very still on a very fine tightrope, or standing on a ball that is floating on water . . . good analogies.
Best,

Fascinating, I had been practising on and off, a couple months or weeks here and there. Now I know that it takes a lot longer than a couple of days to master, I'll get on it and stick with it.
