get anything you desire overnight; what is SATS? how do i use it? — a quick guide.
STATS is short for “state akin to sleep,” a phrase used by neville goddard several times.
for example, one of neville's most popular experiments utilizing SATS is called the "ladder experiment". this experiement demonstrates how useful sats is.
what was the experiment?
1. During one of his lectures, Neville instructed his students to visualize themselves climbing a ladder vividly. He asked them to repeatedly imagine this scenario in detail each night before going to bed. They were to feel themselves climbing the ladder, using all their senses to make it as real as possible.
2. on top of this, Neville told them to write down or say affirmations throughout the day such as, "I will not climb a ladder." This was meant to consciously contradict their nightly visualizations, creating a sense of disbelief in the process. The challenge was to see whether their repeated visualization of the ladder would override the conscious denial of the event.
3. Many of the participants reported that within a few days, despite their daily affirmation of "I will not climb a ladder," they ended up encountering situations in which they physically climbed a ladder. The experiment was intended to show that the subconscious mind, which was being impressed by the vivid visualization during the SATS state, was far more powerful than their conscious thoughts or affirmations.
essentially, Neville wanted to show that imagination, particularly when focused in the relaxed state akin to sleep, could create real-life outcomes, aka — attract your desires instantly.
so . . . how do i use SATS?
1. relax. sit or lie down, and relax your mind and body. this method does not need to be used at night. many people have used it during the day and have gone to sleep for only a few moments before waking up with their desire. This is basically just a form of meditation. A similar mental state occurs naturally in the morning right after awakening, and in the evening before bed, hence why some may prefer to do this method at night despite it not being mandatory.
2. embody the feeling. now while in this state, visualize your goal. Feel your desire completely. want someone to text you? imagine yourself opening your phone to that text message. want a new car? imagine yourself feeling the interior, smelling the new car freshener, testing out the radio. whatever it is, fully immerse yourself in the desire.
3. focus and persist. loop this desire on repeat as you fall asleep, it should be the only focus on your mind. quickly shift any other thoughts that may appear, back onto your desire. the more you do this, the more you'll feel the desire completely.
brief comments;
1. over time, it becomes more and more natural. it's very easy to get into the habit of using SATS to manifest whatever you desire. i often find myself using it without even intending to, just randomly deciding i want something and it becomes all i think about as i fall asleep. it's a very natural method that's easy to custom to.
2. yes, you can use this for shifting realities. there's a reason why so many people "randomly" shift when they stop using long complicated methods and just go to sleep with their DR in mind.
3. you don't need to take action. you don't necessarily need to do anything when manifesting. this doesn't just apply for SATS, but any other form of manifestation. you don't need to take action or do anything further to get your desires if you don't feel like it. remember; they're already yours. they can fall into your hands out of the blue. you don't need to put in effort.
i used several different articles and videos for this to explain it in the most simple way possible, since i know a lot of people tend to struggle with understanding this stuff to the maximum!! so i hope this is easy to read! ૮ ◞ ⸝⸝ ◟ ྀིა
4. does this mean affirmations don't work?
no, it does not. affirmations DO still work for LOA. you CAN achieve anything through affirmations, it was never stated that you couldn't or that SATS is the only way. this only states that according to neville goddards experiement, sats appears to be a more powerful method than affirmations and that's how he viewed it. more powerful doesn't equate to the other method being completely incorrect or impossible. i also personally find this method to work a lot quicker as well.. similar to the void state.
edit; i didn't realize i wrote stats in the title and not sats lol, my mistake it was autocorrect
I forgot to put in my shifting pet peeves post that I hate elitist shifters. motherfucker you’re in no position to think you’re superior in this small corner of the internet when the rest of the world sees you as a deluded dork for shifting realities. get down from ur pedastal and behave like the real freak you are, just like the rest of us.
i’m really scared that i won’t ever shift, i’ve been trying for almost five years and i don’t know what else to do (i’ve reprogrammed my mind, tried almost every method, taken breaks, etc.) i know it’s real and i’m determined to shift. Any advice or motivation?
You’re going to shift. You’ve already shifted by sending me this message you have shifted. I think some people need to acknowledge that every choice you make leads you to another reality. What if you didn’t send me this message, stepped into the street, and got hit by a bus and paralyzed. That would be a different reality then where you sent this to me safe at home. You have an unknown allergy to apples, you eat apples, and then you die. That action would send you to a different reality than it would have been if you ate a pear or if someone had medication. You get it? You don’t need any method, reprogramming breaks, or anything else. Decide you have it, dwell in it, and accept it. You don’t have to believe it at first just go on about your day with the knowledge in the back of your mind that you are where you want to be.
persist in your desire until it stops feeling like a desire and it starts feeling yours. 𝜗𝜚˚⋆
"you can't shift if you're too tired."
"you can't shift without a method."
"you can't shift if you doubt."
these are all things / beliefs that can become limitations. shifting doesn't follow any sort of “rules” except the ones you create for yourself.
you aren't tethered to anything except your own expectations.
I saw this tiktok and felt like it can be applied to manifesting. Affirm while ur scared, annoyed, frustrated, etc
you deserve to shift
The Law of Assumption is your ultimate tool for shifting.
The key is simple: assume it’s done. Assume that you’ve already shifted. Stop wondering how or doubting if it’s possible. The only thing that matters is your belief. If you assume you’ve shifted, your mind and energy will align with that reality, and the universe will reflect it back to you.
This isn’t about forcing anything. It’s about stepping into the feeling of already having it. Feel it deeply,what does it feel like to live in your desired reality? To wake up in your dream life? To be that version of yourself? Hold that feeling and assume it’s true, and it will become your truth.
The Law of Assumption doesn’t require effort, it requires belief. Stop second guessing yourself. The moment you decide it’s yours, it is. Your DR is already waiting for you to claim it. Believe in your power, assume it’s already done, and watch how effortlessly your reality shifts. You’ve got this,it’s already yours.

i was born to a fairly normal family i think? i'm an only child, my dad was an engineer, and my mom was a substitute teacher. i spent half of my childhood in america, but my family moved to japan for my father's job when i was ten. it wasn't a very fun adjustment for a ten-year-old to have to make but looking back i'm glad we did it. my psychic powers were probably always latent within me somewhere, but they weren't always active. they started gradually waking up when i was around 12-ish? if i remember correctly that's when spoons started bending and shit. it took a while before i had a decent amount of control over what i was doing. my powers awakening made my relationship w/ my parents really tense, and when they went back to the us a few months ago, i decided to stay in japan.
