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 :(
𓈒⠀𓂃⠀⠀˖⠀𓇬⠀˖⠀⠀𓂃⠀𓈒 𓈒⠀𓂃⠀⠀˖⠀𓇬⠀˖⠀⠀𓂃⠀𓈒
I would like some help regarding meditation, specifically during shifting attempts.
In the whole time I’ve known of shifting and would use meditation as way to get to my DR, it seems I stumble on the same issue. I’m not sure what to do about it so hopefully someone has some advice !
Anywho, I would be mediating and after a while I would enter a deep meditative state, quite peaceful and relaxing, and at a certain point my whole body will jerk. I know some people might read this and want to tell me to just ignore it but this is some small thing. It will feel like I’m literally falling and my whole body is flung and after my heart is beating like crazy.
And then I’m snapped out of my meditative state, often I will just try again but… then it happens again and then I just get annoyed.
I get it, my body is falling asleep and my mind wants to check. But I can deal with those minor twitches. The ones I’m referring to is something else entirely and I’m not sure what to do about it?
I’ve had progress regarding dreaming and connecting stronger with dream practices, perhaps I should focus on that… another question for another day I suppose.

⟢ ten of cups upright
⟢ ok so this card is all about fulfillment, completion, the end of cycles. for those who may come across this, this is the case for your shifting journey, well almost…
⟢ when i was shuffling cards, they kept going flying. i kept asking for just one card, quick and easy. i kept getting a bunch at a time. perhaps things are a mess right now for you. chaotic. but maybe you aren’t looking at the right thing ? maybe a slight change in perspective is what you need. you keep looking in the past. but what’s done is done. turn back around, you have it.
⟢ there’s pressure here, you are grasping onto shifting and your desires for dear life. but they are not going anywhere. this desperation isn’t necessary, not anymore. you already have your desires. no more reprogramming, mediations you hate doing, subliminals… you don’t need em. just you. just the knowing.
⟢ whatever you want is yours. you don’t need to ask yourself ‘ why isn’t it working? ’ it’s not working because you don’t think it is. but you’re already there.
⟢ it’s done, okay ? so bask in it, let it sink in.
Today I decided to meditate and attempt to enter the void state. I honestly didn’t have a clear picture on what I was going to do, I just laid there tbh.
I kept falling asleep and then waking back up abruptly with my heart pounding (annoying but it’s ok). And I just kept thinking I should persist, it doesn’t matter, my body is asleep anyways let’s continue.
And I did, annnnddd I kept falling asleep waking up. Until at one point I think I was asleep, I wasn’t in the void state but I’m not sure if I was in a deep meditative state or asleep, BUT I just randomly started to affirm “I’m in my waiting room, I’m in my waiting room” and I immediately started see a bright light (but as if my eyes were closed ?). I also want to make clear I know that most shifting “symptoms” are just your body falling asleep, and you they don’t really mean anything in terms of success. But, my body was already asleep and even if it wasn’t idk what a bright light has to do with my body falling asleep.
Anyways, the light thing kept happening and I kept persisting in my affirmations. And for reference I was meditating on my back, but I kept feeling like I was being pulled and turned on my right. I also kept seeing visions of my waiting room in perspectives I’ve never really visualized it from. My heart was pounding I felt like I was flying and it was pretty overwhelming.
In the middle of this part I had a brief thought of something like “oh what if I actually wake up there?” And then had some slight panic but let it go. I’m not sure what that was about because in my whole journey I’ve never been scared of shifting…
Eventually I got way too overwhelmed with what I was experiencing and “woke up”. But the thing is I’ve experienced things like this multiple times before and I’d always wake up feeling sad and angry about me not persisting, and it would usually be a whole thing. But today when I snapped out of it I don’t feel that at all, if anything I feel happy and excited. Ik no matter what I will end up where I want to be and this just motivated me more seeing those detailed visions and being pulled.
I’m so grateful and lucky that I know about shifting! .𖥔 ݁ ˖ ✦ ‧₊˚ ⋅ .𖥔 ݁ ˖ ✦ ‧
First of all, I really like your posts but I feel like I am too dumb for some of your answers. They are so poetic and I... Am not. So I don't understand some of them, could you explain how to shift and deal with 3D for a dumb dumb person?
okay first of all you’re not dumb !!!! you just have different ways of processing information. that’s normal. my brain just works like a victorian poet who’s been trapped in a storm for three days. but i got you.
shifting is just moving your awareness. you do it all the time without realising. daydreaming? shifting. getting lost in a book? shifting. waking up and forgetting where you are for a second? shifting. the only difference is now you’re doing it on purpose.
how to shift.
i , decide where you want to go. be clear. what’s the vibe? what do you want to experience?
ii , relax. you don’t have to be in a perfect position. just get comfortable.
iii , focus on your dr. think about it, feel it, imagine it however works best for you. some people visualise, some just know it’s real. both work.
iv , detach from 3d. this is the hardest part but also the easiest. stop worrying about whether it’s working. if you’re thinking “but i’m still here,” that’s just a thought, not proof. shifting isn’t about forcing, it’s about letting go.
v , allow it to happen. you don’t have to do anything special. your consciousness will move when you stop gripping onto 3d so hard.
dealing with the 3d while waiting.
stop acting like 3d is the enemy. it’s not a prison, it’s just one layer of reality.
shifting is easy when you stop needing it. desperation makes it harder.
do things that make you feel good in 3d. be a little delusional. let yourself enjoy things.
stop overcomplicating it. if you tell yourself shifting is impossible, your brain will believe you. if you tell yourself it’s natural, your brain will believe that too.
Please, do you swear shifting is real and I am not hoping for nothing that I will eventually wake up with my dream life? You are probably tired of questions like this but this is my only hope in life
swear on everything.
swear on the moon, the stars, my nonexistent savings account.
swear on the fact that i have shifted so many times it’s basically muscle memory. this isn’t hope in vain, this isn’t wishful thinking, this is real.
you waking up in your dream life isn't a wish. it's reality. because you decide to. because you can. because you always could.
new theme :p

shifting realities, a practice of mentally transitioning to a desired reality (DR), intertwines concepts from neuroscience, quantum physics, and psychology. while scientific validation is still in its infancy, existing theories offer frameworks to understand the phenomenon.
ּ * ˖ ་
𖥻 ִ ۫ ּ CONSCIOUSNESS : THE SEAT OF REALITY.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: consciousness ┊ the multiverse hypothesis.
⋆ CONCEPT. quantum physics posits that every possible outcome of an event exists in a vast multiverse. each universe represents a different version of reality, from mundane variations to wildly different trajectories.
⋆ MECHANICS OF SHIFTING. shifting leverages the idea that consciousness can “tune into” alternate universes. by focusing on a desired reality, practitioners align their conscious awareness with a specific timeline, effectively "jumping" across dimensions.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: consciousness ┊ the role of conscious observation.
in quantum mechanics, the observer effect suggests that particles exist in a superposition (multiple states) until observed. conscious focus collapses possibilities into a single reality. you can read about my analysis of SCHRÖDINGER’S CAT here.
shifting might work similarly, where intense visualisation collapses infinite possibilities into one "realised" timeline.
ּ * ˖ ་
𖥻 ִ ۫ ּ THE NEUROLOGICAL FOUNDATION.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: foundations ┊ neural plasticity and the brain's power.
the brain's neuroplasticity allows it to rewire itself in response to new stimuli and beliefs. shifting involves training the brain to perceive the DR as real, thereby strengthening neural pathways that reinforce the experience.
⋆ THETA BRAINWAVES. shifting techniques often involve meditation, which increases theta wave activity. theta waves, prominent during deep relaxation and REM sleep, are associated with vivid imagination and dreamlike states.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: foundations ┊ the role of mirror neurones.
mirror neurons, which fire both when we perform an action and when we observe someone else doing the same, could play a subtle role in visualisation techniques. when you "observe" yourself in your DR through intense imagery, your brain might treat these imagined scenarios as if they’re real, reinforcing belief and enhancing the sense of "already being there."
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: foundations ┊ the reticular activating system (RAS).
the RAS, a network in the brainstem, filters sensory input and prioritizes information aligned with your focus. when you script or affirm your DR, the RAS begins to align your perception with those desires, enhancing your belief in the shift's possibility.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: foundations ┊ dissociation and immersive visualisation.
research in dissociation suggests that the brain can create distinct mental states or realities. by using visualisation techniques, individuals can generate hyper-realistic alternate experiences akin to waking dreams.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: foundations ┊ the role of self-suggestion &&& hypnosis.
⋆ HYPNOSIS AS A TOOL. shifting techniques mimic hypnotic induction, where focused attention, repetition, and relaxation lead to a state of heightened suggestibility. the subconscious mind, which governs much of our perception, accepts suggestions about the DR as reality.
⋆ THE POWER OF AUTOSUGGESTION. repetition of affirmations, such as "i am already in my dr," creates a feedback loop where the brain internalizes these statements. this process, known as neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), reinforces belief and makes the DR feel tangible.
ּ * ˖ ་
𖥻 ִ ۫ ּ THE PSYCHOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: perspectives ┊ cognitive dissonance &&& belief formation.
shifting relies on creating a state of cognitive dissonance, where the mind reconciles the gap between belief (DR is real) and current reality (CR). the stronger belief in the DR eventually overrides the CR as the dominant perception.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: perspectives ┊ flow states.
flow, a state of intense focus where self-awareness diminishes, mirrors the mental absorption experienced during shifting. techniques like visualisation and scripting can help induce flow, making the DR feel seamlessly real.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: perspectives ┊ neuroaesthetics.
the DR's vividness can be enhanced by neuroaesthetics, which studies how beauty and sensory immersion influence brain activity. the more sensory and aesthetically rich your DR script, the more compelling it becomes to your mind.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: perspectives ┊ trauma healing potential.
shifting might inadvertently serve as a therapeutic tool, offering escapism with benefits. by repeatedly inhabiting realities where you are empowered, safe, or joyful, your brain may rewire itself towards those states, even in the CR.
ּ * ˖ ་
𖥻 ִ ۫ ּ QUANTUM &&& ENERGETIC THEORIES.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: theories ┊ quantum entanglement.
if consciousness exists as an energetic field, it may interact with quantum particles. shifting could represent an entanglement between the practitioner’s conscious field and the vibrational frequency of the DR.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: theories ┊ string theory &&& vibrational aligment.
string theory suggests that all matter vibrates at specific frequencies. visualisation and affirmations may "tune" an individual’s consciousness to the frequency of their DR, akin to dialling into a specific radio station.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: theories ┊ superposition &&& decision-making.
expand the schrödinger's cat analogy: every decision you make keeps you in one "collapsed" version of reality while the unchosen options exist elsewhere. shifting might involve "uncollapsing" your current state to step into a different outcome entirely.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: theories ┊ quantum foam.
quantum foam, a concept from quantum mechanics, describes the universe's fabric as constantly fluctuating, bubbling with mini-universes. shifting could theoretically align consciousness with one of these constantly emerging pockets of reality.
𖥻 ִ ۫ ּ ANCHORING WITH SENSE.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: anchoring ┊ tactile anchors.
practices like holding an object from your CR while visualising your DR may keep your conscious mind grounded enough to shift seamlessly. for example, touching a specific fabric in both realities to "bridge" them with texture memory.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: anchoring ┊ music &&& frequencies.
sound frequencies (e.g., binaural beats) are popular in shifting techniques, and they resonate with the vibrational alignment theory. specific frequencies could "tune" the brain to DR wavelengths, akin to fine-tuning a radio signal.
𖥻 ִ ۫ ּ BRIDGING CULTURAL CONCEPTS.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: cultural concepts ┊ shifting &&& mysticism .
shifting parallels ancient spiritual practices, such as astral projection and lucid dreaming from hindu and Ttbetan traditions. these systems often view the mind as a bridge between realities, blurring lines between spiritual transcendence and what shifting communities describe as DR transitions. could this modern practice be a rebranding of timeless mystical insights?
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: cultural concepts ┊ collective consciousness .
jung's theory of the collective unconscious suggests a shared psychological reservoir of archetypes and experiences. if shifting connects consciousness to the multiverse, it might draw from this collective field, where every possibility already "exists."
ּ * ˖ ་
𖥻 ִ ۫ ּ SKEPTICISM &&& ALTERNATIVE 'EXPLANATIONS'.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: skepticism ┊ lucid dreaming.
critics (close minded antis) argue that shifting might be an advanced form of lucid dreaming, where the mind creates hyper-realistic simulations during REM sleep.
while not a literal shift, the subjective experience of a DR is indistinguishable from reality, lending credibility to the practice.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: skepticism ┊ psychological escapism.
shifting may also serve as a form of escapism, offering a mental sanctuary for individuals to explore alternate lives and identities.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: skepticism ┊ overlap with phenomenology.
philosophers like husserl explore how consciousness shapes reality. if CR is already shaped by perception, then DRs aren’t inherently less valid; they’re just alternate experiential frames.
·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING: skepticism ┊ the role of memory.
some skeptics might argue that "recalled" DR experiences are a type of confabulation—your mind assembling experiences that feel real. but this doesn’t discredit the power of belief or the emotional authenticity of the DR.
ּ * ˖ ་
𖥻 ִ ۫ ּ PRACTICAL TECHNIQUES FOR SHIFTING.
⋆ SCRIPTING. writing detailed descriptions of your DR to prime the mind.
⋆ VISUALISATION. using sensory-rich imagery to mentally "step into" the DR.
⋆ ANCHOR TECHNIQUES. incorporating objects or phrases to maintain a connection to the DR.
⋆ REVERSE SHIFTING (BACK TO CR). for practitioners concerned about getting "stuck," developing reverse-shifting techniques—like using a safe word, visualising CR-specific objects, or scripting anchors—can help reinforce a sense of control.
⋆ SYMBOLIC LANGUAGE IN SCRIPTS. add metaphors or symbols to DR scripts, which the subconscious processes more easily. for instance, scripting a "golden thread" connecting you to your DR can feel more vivid than relying solely on literal descriptions.
ּ * ˖ ་
𖥻 ִ ۫ ּ FINAL THOUGHTS.
while shifting lacks direct empirical proof, its foundations in quantum theory, neurobiology, and psychology make it a compelling intersection of science and self-exploration. by engaging in practices that align consciousness, belief, and intention, practitioners create a powerful framework for experiencing alternate realities—whether as a genuine quantum leap or a profound psychological transformation.
