The ability to gather information outside the range of the normal five physical senses is, by definition, "extrasensory". We each have an innate level or threshold of awareness that determines the degree to which we can "see" auras, "hear" the thoughts of others or "feel" another person's emotional state. But just like a musician or a gourmet will practice to extend and refine their perception, the student may exercise to extend the range and sensitivity of their subtle awareness and their ability to bring that sensation into normal waking consciousness.
The Chakras are energy portals/transformers through which prana and subtle energies are moved. The Chakras move these energies in and out of the system as well as transforming and distributing them among the various bodies and planes of existence. The Rosicrucians (AMORC) practice a particularly effective Chakra development exercise.
An exercise for building your awareness and facility with the inner planes and your various bodies.
Ouseley's "Color Meditations" are some of the most effective exercises for increasing the ability to visualize and see on the inner.
