“so how did you two meet” funny story, i traveled universes
Because shifting is my destiny
Okay I've been missing for a bit because I was trying something new that I saw on YouTube.
My OG plan died because I got bored of the DR I was shifting to and couldn't make myself keep daydreaming about it. But then I was on the Astral Projection subreddit and saw people talking about this one really helpful community member's YouTube channel. I decided to check it out and saw he had a video basically centred around "last ditch efforts to help you astral project". And since I know some people have managed to shift through astral projection, I've been trying it for the last three days.
What I basically did was ground myself. And no, I don't mean I molested every cushion in my living room or tried to make myself smell vanilla, I mean I treated myself like a naughty child and took away everything I considered fun and stimulating except for the knitting projects I'm working on. Every time I got frustrated or wanted to take a break and eat a nice snack or watch some TV I would tell myself, "Too bad. No snacks until you shift. No TV until you shift."
And let me tell you, literally day one I got results. After one trip to the supermarket with my boyfriend lamenting the fact I couldn't buy donuts or macarons or any of the nice things I was walking past, I went to sleep that night and had my first ever false awakening. Literally I have never had one in my life before, I try this and BAM!
But it was so much more than that.
I was struggling to sleep, so I put on an Alunir video because I find her voice really relaxing and I figured that even if I didn't shift from it I'd still fall asleep. I had random dreams for a bit that I don't remember, but then I was suddenly lying in my childhood bed at my parents' old house. As I was looking around the room I heard Alunir's voice still playing through my sleep mask and that made me realise I was dreaming.
Obviously as soon as I realised that I closed my eyes in the dream and tried to follow along with the prompts and visualise my DR, but everything started to shake and I heard growling and I got scared enough to wake up. Which is incredibly annoying because if you know anything about astral projection THOSE ARE TWO REALLY COMMON THINGS THAT HAPPEN TO PEOPLE RIGHT BEFORE THEY LEAVE THEIR BODY.
So I'm super mad that I got too scared and woke myself up, but at the same time I'm really excited because I think that's the most progress I've had in a long long time.
I didn't have anymore progress last night but it was really hot and I struggled to sleep. We just had a storm and things have cooled down a bit so I'm hoping tonight will be better. Wish me luck!!

Obviously because of this method I've mostly been on a social media ban but I figured I'd give a quick update to keep the blog active.
Did half of shiftblr block me or something? I swear my feed only has, like, four posts in it at any one time now.
"shift to another reality is a lie! that's schizophrenia, hallucination—"
okay, and? i really wouldn't mind hallucinating ur favorite character fucking me. is this meant to get to me? hmmmm... i'm sorry, but u failed .
There have been some downright rude posts on here for a while now that I think started out as people trying to show "tough love" a la personal trainers, but it's incredibly irritating. If you have nothing constructive to say about shifting then just stick to memes/mood boards/storytimes.
Next person who swears at me over the fact I haven't shifted or tells me I'm an idiot for saying it, I'm going to shift to a reality where I have homing teleportation, warp to their location and smack them six ways to Sunday.
I know everyone likes to think that shitblr is significantly better than shiftok but it's slowly starting to become the same with the recycled advice and judgmental mindsets. Every single advice post is the exact same with the exact same rude "it's your fault you haven't shifted" vibe to it. Which, especially for mentally ill and neurodivergent people is extremely harmful and does nothing but make them feel worthless and like they'll never shift. It's not difficult to be kind, and if it is for you then don't make content that people will listen to.
Turned out like absolute shit. Back to square one.
Spent 6 hours yesterday gathering and cleaning audio of my s/o to make a voice clone of them and now I'm back at it again today.
Could I do this with only a minute or so of sample data? Yes. Would I be satisfied if it wasn't absolutely perfect? No.
So here I am settling down for several more hours of work, just so I can hear Him say whatever I want in this reality.
If you never hear from me again it's because I finally ran the voice cloner and it turned out shit so I jumped into the sea.
This morning I realised I was still tired and could go back to sleep and try something. I'm not sure why, but for some reason I picked doing SSILD cycles. Well they sure worked. I had so many lucid dreams in a row, as well as another false awakening. If I could just get better at stabilising the dream I could be walking through portals every night.
Not sure if I should be sad I'm not big enough for weird asks yet (or any asks for that matter) or grateful I don't have to deal with this shit
Can't believe I have to say this but please don't send shit like this to me. I'm a real person with boundaries. I don't want to hear about your incest fantasy. I regret whatever I posted that made you think I did.
I've never made a mood board before in my life so please go easy on me. I just saw everyone posting theirs and decided I wanted to give it a go... but not tell anyone what my DR is?
Maybe this will serve as a teaser and I'll eventually tell you guys more about this DR if there's interest. But for now I'm too shy so... no context mood board! 😅
