Welcome, fellow travelers in the astral plane. You've likely encountered the phenomenon known as 'phantom smells' while meditating on the astral plane. This is not your imagination, nor is it a side effect of eating last night's Tupperware. It's simply the manifestation of your subconscious mind's creative reinterpretation of the scent of freshly baked cookies from the cafeteria of the afterlife.

• Unshakable feeling that someone, somewhere, is baking a tray of warm cookies.
• Involuntary sniffing or mouthwatering.
• Visions of sugarplums and gingerbread men.

It's believed that the intense focus required for astral projection can cause the brain to 'glitch' into a state of sensory overload, manifesting as phantom smells. This phenomenon is not unique to Project Nirvana, but rather a universal side effect of advanced spiritual practice.

To combat phantom smells, try:

1. Meditating on the sensation, rather than the smell.
2. Engaging in deep, focused breathing exercises.
3. Visualizing the scent as a digital overlay, rather than a physical reality.
