i swear shifting is so very easy. please just trust yourself and allow yourself to be. that’s it. you just have the intent and be.
i’m almost to 2k and that’s insane, let us commemorate this (close) milestone with a peek into some scenarios!
s/o scenarios as inspo!
- s/o tucking blankets around me when I stir in the night
- going on a camping trip and sharing a sleeping bag
- sitting behind me as they teach me how to play guitar (or any instrument, works real well for drums teehee)
- decorating the christmas tree together and lifting me up to place the topper
- helping them to undress after an injury and cleaning their wound
- holding hands to not lose each other in a crowd but neither of us letting go once out of it
- friends ship us before we know we like each other
- dancing in the snow and together and snow collecting in my hair
- they put lip balm on my lips for me
- while on the train/bus, their hand covers mine on the bar while we stand
- them putting a necklace they bought for me on my neck
- them putting their hand in my back pocket/me putting mine in their jacket pocket to hold theirs
- waking up to see a gift on the bed and a handwritten note
- trying to get out of bed for the day and they pull me back in by the waist
- looking up and catching them already staring at me but they don’t look away
- being my date after my initial one ghosted/cancelled last minute
- claiming we’re together to someone who’s interested even though we’re not yet
- them telling me a story to help me sleep while rubbing my back
- neither of us having good sleep but when together, we finally feel safe enough to doze (logan and me WHO SAID THAT???)
- inner thigh kisses
- hands gliding up my waist pulling up my shirt
- grabbing me from behind and pulling me to their body just to whisper in my ear
- being swarmed by paps/fans and s/o comes back to defend me and get me into the venue safely
- dreaming of each other before first meeting
- instant connection but slow burn because we’re both scared of rejection
- one touch from me is potentially deadly but they don’t care and kiss me anyway
- confessing feelings but it never being sober
- both being in relationships but pining after each other
- being grumpy all day but old friend returns and suddenly being happier. s/o scrutinizing that person randomly out of jealousy and maybe being competitive
- double date bowling match where we’re paying more attention to each other than our dates
- everyone dresses up for halloween and we accidentally match costumes (like they do the counterpart of my costume)
I know this sounds like a basic tip everyone says, but "living in the wish fulfilled" is something that you need to do if you want to shift way easier. (of course, you can shift without this but why not make things easier?
"act as if"
When shifting, you aren't willing to become your "DR self", you are said DR self. Act as if you're already there, think in first person as if you're in your DR already.
If thoughts about your CR occur, that's okay. Try to let them pass, turn the thoughts into 3rd person. You aren't in your CR anymore, think of it as another place now.
"the present tense"
I AM.
Still basic, yet I see a lot of people get that wrong. Speak as you're already there.
"I will shift" = "I have shifted."
"I am a master shifter" = "I am in my DR."
Stop trying to manifest the power to shift, you already have that. You don't need to affirm 'I am a master shifter', this is manifesting the wrong thing. You should focus on getting to your DR, not gaining the ability to.
"Think of your DR as a REAL PLACE."
You ARE your DR self. Your DR is REAL. Stop thinking about it as a fictional place, it's a REAL one and treat it like that.
Instead of saying "my DR self", say you. Your 'DR self' is just another term for you, your DR is just another reality you live in. Stop treating them as something unachievable.
Remember, you don't need anything to shift. You can do it at any time no matter what. Stop limiting yourself. 111 222 333

Shifting diary entry #2
I was meaning to make a post sooner these last couple of weeks but I was feeling lazy and forgetful. Anyways, I’m finally writing something now.
Today I was feeling pretty tired and my sister and I took a nap. I decided to use my headphones and play a subliminal. I wasn’t exactly sure what I was planning to do, but I didn’t really care about that. I just started to relax and kept affirming “I Am” I’m not really sure if I affirmed anything else though, this whole thing is kinda fuzzy to me. Along with affirming I kept my body still and tried really hard to not move at all so my body would fall asleep and I would stay awake.
I feel like I was just constantly drifting in and out of consciousness. And then at one point I felt really floaty and heavy at the same time and I don’t remember hearing my subliminal any more. I’m not really sure if this was the void state or not, but I do know that at that point I wasn’t even thinking of shifting, instead I was trying to get myself to lucid dream. I can’t really recall if I did lucid dream or not but I do know I had a really vivid dream (unrelated to anything regarding shifting) and then I felt that I needed to wake up from my nap so I did. I thought my sister and I had overslept because it felt like I was meditating for hours, but when I checked my phone I was only doing all this for 30 minutes…
I’m not sure if I will meditate again tonight or not. I think I need to figure out how to remember I even want to shift? Idk, but that’s all for now!
1: It’s easy. Don’t overcomplicate it. Every time you get lost in thoughts and don’t feel your surroundings anymore, that’s when you’ve entered the void.
2: Personally, I prefer to do this method at night. But do what’s best for you, preferably at a time when you won’t be disturbed. Lie or sit down—whatever is more comfortable for you.
3: Scratch every itch you have, then lay still once you’re ready, listening to calm music. Anything that keeps your mind awake but lets your body fall asleep— you should not move so you reach the void faster.
4: Lie still, let the music play for around 20-30 minutes without moving. By now, your body should be asleep, and your mind awake. When the music stops, simply focus on the black behind your eyes and, if you want to, affirm.
That’s it.
You got this.
had a dream ab a reality idek if i’ll actually shift to and i’m not even consuming content ab it……… hmmmmmm………….
If we’re being completely honest, some of you like the idea that you can live the life you want or shift to where you want but you don’t actually want to see the success of it.
You sit up and make posts about what you want and what dr you’re shifting to but the next following posts are ‘I can’t do it’ or ‘I’m feeling burnt out’ and that’s odd because????
I’m not saying you don’t have a right to feel exhausted upon not seeing any progress or improvement but you’re using the LOA just by saying you can’t do something.
Some of you truly only listen to the negativity because that’s what you’re used too and trust me I’m not judging anyone bc we’re human and I do it too but you cannot keep writing things like ‘I can’t do it’ or ‘it’ll take me years’
Shifting is a practice yes, but how many times are you going to keep saying it’s a practice instead of actually practicing it.
Slow progress ≠ no progress.
creative, fun, and motivating activities to do besides scripting:
: ̗̀➛ make digital scrapbooks - it could be about a fun day you had with your friends or maybe a significant moment in your life. if you have a pinterest board dedicated to your dr, i recommend scrolling through it to find pictures that you can include in your scrapbook. add in some stickers and maybe a short paragraph of what you did that particular day (treat it as if you're writing in your journal). use an app like canva and get creative with it.
examples of digital scrapbooks (i found all of them on pinterest so creds to the original creators):
: ̗̀➛ create a poster - this example is specifically for people who are actors/actresses in their dr: make a poster about an upcoming movie/tv show you're starring in. examples:
: ̗̀➛ make music playlists about your dr - i always do this because it's simple and therapeutic, especially when you're feeling really demotivated and want to do something that requires the least amount of effort
: ̗̀➛ plan outfits for a day in your dr - ask yourself what you're going to wear tomorrow. for this one, i recommend using an app called combyne or shuffles (if you're willing to put extra effort into it).
But what if… things work out, nothing bad happens, your hard work pays off, you get through this and prove yourself
Update: my dad ended up getting Chinese food for everyone 😭
I think I almost shifted
𓈒⠀𓂃⠀⠀˖⠀𓇬⠀˖⠀⠀𓂃⠀𓈒 𓈒⠀𓂃⠀⠀˖⠀𓇬⠀˖⠀⠀𓂃⠀𓈒
I woke up around 9 this morning and was kinda irritated that the night prior my cat was being annoying when I went to lay down and meditate but I just shrugged it off, it’s Christmas anyways.
I then saw a post on Reddit regarding a way to have your body asleep and mind awake. I thought it was kind of interesting and made a mental note to try it out and laid down and contemplated just shifting right then and there. Most times when I “try” to shift it’s not in the morning due to everyone being up and what not. But I was, still am, kind of just over my shifting journey at this point.
Instead of referencing the info I saw on Reddit I just began to think of my plans my first day in my DR. Eventually my dad turned the heat on because it was so cold and I just decided to let myself rest more bc I didn’t sleep well.
I continued to think of my first day as I drifted off to sleep and how annoyed I was with my journey.
Eventually I slipped into a dream, a very strange one at that, an experience I’ve never had before really.
It began with me trying cake for my wedding (?) and for a bit it was somewhat normal. I’m not sure when exactly my dream changed but I remember being in the car with my sister and dad, he was driving us home. At this point I was constantly teetering on being awake and in a dream, and it’s clear to me now that in this dream I thought I was awake and living out today.
My dad mentioned how he picked up Chinese food for my mom, and I thought that was weird because he was supposed to make wings tonight. I remember joking with my sister that it sucks he did that because we were planning to get Chinese food later.
This dream was so vivid… I remember looking out of the car on the way home and it was so beautiful, the way the light was going through the trees the architecture. I thought to myself “I don’t remember this place ever looking like this.. so odd” there were so many indicators in this dream that I feel like I should’ve gotten lucid but I never did…?
Anyways we got home and the only parts I remember is I was standing on the couch for some reason (it was also in a different spot) and there was a wolf there??? I called out for my dad and when he came into the living room the wolf was gone. He looked at me strangely and said something like “did you not drink enough coffee today” and I remember thinking that that was such a strange thing for him to say in general but also in that moment as I stood on the couch claiming there was a literal wolf in our living room. But still I didn’t become lucid.
Instead I laid on the couch I said to myself “I’m just gonna shift instead” and right when I closed my eyes and said I’m in my DR, my body began buzzing all over, I began to feel as though I was floating and my surroundings around me began to warp. I got excited but stayed focused, I continued saying “I am in my DR” and I imagined where I was gonna wake up, what I would be wearing… and the sensations became more extreme. I continued to persist. But unfortunately something woke me up here.
It was such an odd experience, I’ve lucid dreamt many times and tried shifting via a dream many times before too. But never anything like this where I thought I was awake and just subconsciously did an attempt?????? This feels like a good thing but… where does this leave me? What does this mean, and why didn’t I shift :(

one day, you’ll celebrate your birthdays over there, and your wishes may turn softer, more resigned—no longer the desperate wishes you make now. these weeks of struggle will be no more than a fleeting thought, something you’ll brush off with a small giggle, then bury back in the deepest, dustiest shelves of your mind. you’ll look back at the nights you spent wondering if this was it, and you’ll laugh, and laugh, and laugh—a hollow but somehow full sound, at how little you knew then.
