"persist, Persist, Persist" But... How?

Hey girll so I know that you talk a lot about embodying your dr self so could you please go through what like a normal shifting attempt looks like for you? Like how do you do that?

#24

I don’t have an in depth or “normal” shifting routine, it’s quite literally different each time. sometimes I put more effort in to embody than not but for you I recommend starting off with basic questions and answers. I actually had a method like this october 2023 posted on my tiktok. where you use askfirmmations to connect (kinda feel like this proves i’ve always believed in embodying before sensing).

what is my name? age?

who are my family members? out of those family members who am I closest to? why?

what is it that I have to do today? why do I have to do it? can I put it off till tomorrow? would I put it off till tomorrow?

get into your brain. you will begin to feel a flow where you don’t have to think about the next question and can just dip into your stream of consciousness naturally. when that is done, you know you are in the state of embodiment.

How I entered the void so easily after 1 year of trying

So after 1 year and half of trying to enter I finally did it and I am so mad because it REALLY IS SOOOOO EASY and tbh if in this post you are looking for any sort of validation or info you smart ass already know then please REMEMBER THIS : entering the void is extremely easy. You just have to do it in a way that resonates with you.

Personally for me since I had adhd I couldn’t just stay still and affirm for 1 or even a few for 10 mins. Not just because I was lazy but because just repeating “I am in the void” for so long gets me tired and makes me think of the void more and you actually don’t want to think too deeep about it. I couldn’t wake 3 hours prior and then affirm or even have the patience to do the psych k, yes I was extremely lazy back then and unpresistent but one thing that helped me even backed then was THE ALPHA STATE MEDITATION !

You just have to find what works for you, find a method technique whatever you want to do that doesn’t seem like a chore. So In a post back then I found on @gorgeouslypink acc talking about doing the alpha sate meditation and I tried it back then and I felt really relaxed and it was a good feeling but like I said back then I was realllly lazy so after a few mins I stopped. Then many months later passed and I was still looking for anything and everything on the void. Then just like two days ago I came across another post which was pretty simple and the technique I used was called the DISTRACTED TECHNIQUE.

All there was to do was the usual you get into a comfortable position and then she said to use the alpha state meditation and used the one gorgeouslypink recommended. So I used it and then what she tell you to do is to just think of anything else just get distracted basically and this WAS SO GOOD 4 ME because back then I had adhd so it made it harder to concentrate on just affirming and so yeah I just thought of random things and then at some point where I was completely distracted I felt my body like lift up 😭 if that makes sense I just can’t clearly describe it. It felt really like a shift and I was like ‘panicking’ in a way but I wasn’t actually panicking I just kinda became aware what was going and then I got scared a little but I just relaxed shortly after. Also my fan that was making like a loud noises was coming in an out and then I only hear it in one ear and then I didn’t hear anything and I just stayed there wondering if I reached the void and i actually was!!! I didn’t feel my body it felt like I had no body at all and it was pitch black just like how I imagined the void to be. For a few minutes I just stayed there feeling the most surreal peace I have ever felt. I needed that peace fr 💀.

So then I affirmed for my desires all I said was “I have all my desired results from my subliminal playlist.” Then just to be extra sure I just said “I have everything I want.”

At that point I got really excited and then I wiggled my toes to get out because I was too dam happy I needed to see all my shit the moment I wake up and then I slowly started getting out and when I tell you I cried for like a good dam minute when I woke up and saw how DIFFERENT. My room looked. I literally screamed onto my pillow. I was so dam scare and yet excited to see how I looked.

WHAT I MANIFESTED :

Desired body and face

Having silky straight tailbone length hair cuz mines was originally curly

And everything in my sub playlist

My desired boyfriend and guys I made him be like Gojo Satoru ( because we are all delusional over him 🤪) and let me tell you he is so tall, handsome, sexy and a literal god. He is so silly too 🩷

Moving countries I now live in ny

Never actually meeting my ex and all the people in my old school forget me and have actually never even met me. Like if u asked them about me they have never heard or known me before

Extremely rich rich like hella bands

Got rid of my anxiety and mental health issue

Plus +++

NEVER EVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS.

Even if the circumstances seem to be eating you alive don’t mind that too much. Even if all seems hopeless don’t give up because you already know nothing can decide or be unless you give it power to be. So stop being goofy and take responsibility and DONT STRESS!! You don’t see God stressing do you. All he has to do is blink and whatever he wants to happen, happens. Plus a lot of confidence came from non dualism that I owe a huge thanks to @trynafindbarbiee she really said it like it is !!

YOU GOT THIS ML 🩷🩷🩷🩷

My win-win way to get into the Void State

Preface: I published this post before I deactivated my account, but it is still relevant. The post is gradually being updated.

I consciously (!) entered a Void State three times. Here's my way.

Preparatory stage

Usually I don't prepare in any way. I just do this before bed when I'm tired after a routine day.

You know that kind of fatigue when you’ve been walking for a long time and finally sit down or lie down, and your body seems to start melting like butter in the sun? I'm talking about such pleasant fatigue.

Main stage

Having made myself comfortable on the bed, I began to relax my body and mind, but not fall asleep. Next was a guided meditation. I tried just saying affirmations, but I still like it better when the voice from meditation guides me.

And the most important thing that always allows me to enter the Void State is that I fully concentrated on the voice from the guided meditation. I didn’t even fully realize what exactly they were talking about, the main thing was to listen to this voice and music and not be distracted by anything. If there were wandering thoughts that I became aware of, I immediately returned my attention to the voice from the meditation.

Final stage

Usually, at the 10th minute of meditation, I already felt the pre-Void symptoms. But I still continued to concentrate on the voice from the meditation. And… boom! I'm in the Void State. In this state it is very calm and pleasant, but soulless, or something... After I said my intention or simply relaxed in this state, I came out of it and “woke up” in the desired reality.

Q & A 

What kind of meditation was I listening to?

A simple guided meditation for deep relaxation. I usually choose a deep female voice because it calms me down more. But I don't have favorites among specific meditations.

I used this one:

But you can listen to absolutely any meditation if you want. The main thing is that you feel comfortable and at ease, it should not be difficult for you.

You can also not listen to the meditation at all, but just do affirmations or something like that.

How did I manage to relax but not fall asleep?

I simply concentrated on the voice from the meditation, so my brain was constantly working while my body relaxed. This is the main secret to accurately get into the Void State.

What did I manifest?

I'll write about this later!

how to shift awake - shay:

shifting awake is all about patience and clear intention. it’s about knowing where you want to be and aligning with it fully. the moment you set your intention, you are already shifting. your only job is to stay in that knowing.

1. visualize & commit

see your DR. feel it. place yourself there in your mind and stick to that visualization as if you’re already there. shifting awake isn’t about waiting for the shift to happen—it’s about accepting that it already has.

2. step into your method immediately

whatever method you use, go into it with the mindset that you are already in your DR and are simply choosing when to become fully aware of it. don’t treat it like a waiting game. there is no transition time. no delay. the faster you accept that you are there, the faster your senses will catch up.

3. stop waiting for cues from your physical body

if you keep checking in with your body, you’re anchoring yourself to your CR and resisting the shift. focus on your DR and nothing else. your body will adjust on its own—your only job is to remain locked into where you know you are.

4. patience is key

rushing the process suggests doubt. it implies you don’t fully trust that your intention alone is enough. patience isn’t about “waiting”—it’s about confidence. confidence that shifting is happening right now, and all you have to do is let it unfold.

shifting awake is simple: set your intention, accept that you are already there, and trust in that fully. the more you embody this mindset, the smoother the shift becomes. for other tips check my masterlist <3

not trying to be mean (disclaimer, i'm nice, i swear) but if you're always saying you haven’t shifted, asking for help, getting told the simplest answer ("just know you’ve shifted, that’s literally it. confidence + assumption = success"), rejecting that, then saying you haven’t shifted again… and then doing it all over…....what are we doing here. what are we cooking. at some point, it’s not about shifting anymore, it’s about you fighting your own brain in a parking lot.

if you keep reaffirming that you haven’t shifted, your mind is just following that script

Getting romanced;

hi. I’ve been trying to shift for about 4 years now. Completely’unsuccessful’. I know that I ‘shift all the time’ and it’s ’incredibly easy’, so why am I still here? I feel like I approach every attempt with boundless hope and belief that this is the time, tonight is the night. And yet, I’m still here. what am I doing wrong? I really feel like I have the mindset and method down but I have never shifted to any of my desired realities. I affirm robotically, try to truly embody my DR self, try to disengage from the 3D but I never feel any of my surroundings change, only vague symptoms or none at all. any advice would be helpful!!!

The only valid solution is to relax.

Relax your soul and mind, whatever you're doing, don't put strain on yourself, your mind at all times is saturated with shifting- shifting methods- shifting affs and your failure.

Second, no matter how much it hurts to hear this but thinking too much about it or thinking you're failing is a hindrance.

It seems you're channeling a lot of energy, towards the practice, not your end product, which is your DR.

You put effort on embodying your DR self, but there always remains a subconscious pressure regarding achieving that goal of physical shifting.

If you could take a day's break from shifting, and instead of shifting, you could affirm regarding shifting to a reality where you're a master shifter, you'll move on with a lighter burden go carry the next day, your manifestation will work if you believe it will, and you could leave behind the possibility of you messing up shifting (still following what you manifested)

Its a manifestation that's not directly present in the 3d, but it is there. You're creating your reality, being the creator, you need to realise its possible if we don't try to enforce the idea that something is difficult or you're failing at it constantly.

Hope this helped, also try to make shifting more fun for yourself, don't bore or burn yourself out.

Also stop saying you're unsuccessful, from this point onwards you're not.

hello emma, I'm new to shifting and I've seen ppl say ignore the 3d and stuff

but isn't shifting instant? as in when you do the sleep method successfully, the next morning you wake up in ur Dr without fail? unlike with affirmations, subs, etc... most ppl usually take a bit of time, especially with "big things"

yes, shifting IS (!!!) instant, but the way you think about it might be making it feel not instant.

shifting ≠ effort or process you don’t make shifting happen. it is the natural result of awareness moving. like blinking, like breathing. you don’t have to “wait” for it or “build up” to it like manifesting in the traditional sense. if you assume you are there, you are.

sleep method & why it works instantly sleep is when awareness is easiest to shift because your senses are already taking a backseat. if you fall asleep knowing you are in your dr, that’s it. that’s the shift. no lag time, no waiting period. if you wake up and think “wait, i’m still here?” that’s just your mind second-guessing itself and reinforcing the 3d you thought you had left.

ignoring the 3d ≠ waiting for it to change. ignoring the 3d doesn’t mean fighting it, it means not letting it dictate reality for you. shifting isn’t about waiting for proof, it’s about assuming the shift has already happened and letting everything else recalibrate accordingly.

“big things take longer” is a limiting belief. you are not on a waiting list for a new identity. time doesn’t make shifting work. assumption does. if you’re treating shifting like a slow manifesting process where you’re hoping it “sticks,” you’re still placing your awareness in the before rather than the after. shifting is only instant when you treat it like it already is.

shifting is always instant. but if you’re checking for proof, you’re shifting (ha) back into a state of questioning instead of knowing. if you do the sleep method with total assumption, you will wake up there. because the assumption itself is the shift.

What to do if you have not shifted for +++years

(Most of my anons were along the lines of this same issue, I want to make a common post for them. I won't be telling you "you're already there" or "persist" I'm going to have a heart to heart conversation with your mental health in mind, this will be a long post)

First and foremost I have to say, this post is very heavily opinion-based. Alright, I'll divide it into topics, and two categories: before shifting and during shifting.

Before Shifting.

Determining the laws of your reality.

This is where you've got to do most of the work. (Don't worry, it won't be 7 hour subliminal listening sessions) now let's present a very important note: I don't know who you are. But most importantly I don't know what you believe in. Shifting isn't a known set of rules, Shifting doesn't have a single method, it does not have a wikihow page. Everything that exist is because of you. Therefore there are differences in my reality and yours. What you believe in is acting out in reality. LITERALLY.

So first you need to ask yourself some questions, with full honesty, oh and don't apply the thoughts you have by certain reprogramming affirmations, don't force yourself just because you have to persist.

"What am I?" What do you believe you are? Currently, are you a soul, a human? Or you something greater, seek within yourself to answer what you believe.

"What is reality?" How is everything working around you? Why are you here.

"Who is in control?" Who makes you shift. Who or what makes everything happen.

"How to shift?" Self explanatory. If you write with utmost truth on what you think shifting is like and when and how it happens; you'll basically have the code of how reality works for you.

Relax.

After you've gathered your research sheets. Take a breath, since you've got all the answers you need. Now, close your eyes, whenever you like. Imagine a serene atmosphere, for example, sharp sunlight falling on your skin, warming you up, or the rain droplets drowning your senses, as you run across a forest. Tell yourself, "this is what shifting is" , and "I've shifted." That's all it is. You feel some you get some.

Some important realizations,

• Time is not linear.

• Failure is a perception.

• You're not beneath anyone.

• You don't need to prove yourself to anyone.

• you'll survive, you'll be alright.

Don't. Kidnap. Yourself.

The title sounds weird, but it is regarding heavily applying the principle of assuming until you have it, to EVERYTHING. Idc if people come after me. I don't want anyone to suffer by stamping their foreheads with "persist!" Even if it works. I love loa, until it crosses over into toxic positively. Don't just put yourself in a coffin; don't become a prisoner to your thoughts! Don't make it feel like there's an angry witch in your mind, who will scream at you if something goes wrong, the problem is! Something might go wrong and you'd end up highlighting the idea that you are being forced to assume against something. Don't feel forced. Simple. (You can still use loa, if you like)

Declutter your mind.

I said it before. and @ilovecatfr explained this here, there's so much in your mind. I can tell. Each and everyone has their own unique spin on shifting. That's great and they put out advice to help people, similarly you... also have it within you. Afterall, these bloggers, big well written and decorated posts are the projection of your assumptions. I'd like to say, majority of the bloggers are kindhearted with the aim to help others. Although for some, you being desperate in their asks is an ego boost, nothing is wrong with feeling good about yourself for your knowledge, but you the person at the other end of this screen, are not a pawn, not just another anon, alright? you know how to shift, look back at what your answers were to the questions.

Control your emotions towards this reality.

I've always wanted to discuss this. Emotions are the puppeteers of this show. They're a grounding mechanism of any reality. If you feel something deeply, you're angry at circumstances you form an attachment to this reality, it keeps you here. Think about what happens to a person when they get disassociation. Similarly belief + emotional investment = reality. Its a code. I can confidently say anyone who has not shifted (... not targeting anyone, genuinely trying my best to help; ty ty back to the text) is because they're giving too much emotional importance to this reality. This can be in the form of stressing that you have not shifted, being worried that you're not in your dr, putting much focus on the "What ifs" of if you wake back in this reality.

But we can't just go BLANK. we're still humans who feel deeply (for now huehue) so what's the solution to this non-issue? Direct these feelings towards your destination, your intended reality! This would mean feeling like your dr self, if you're experiencing negative emotions you can last second convert them to any scenario related to your dr, emotional investment there pays well, here? It just wastes time.

Don't let feelings get the best of you and keep you here; you're their creator after all.

(Optional) Create a homey dr.

This comes from personal experiences. If I don't mention this I won't be completely open with each one of you. I shifted through intense love and reverence for my home. I knew that each and every second spent in this reality led up to me shifting to my home.

So for ease later on when you can't decide between drs, it'll be comforting to have a reality you can call home and choose over and over again.

Rewire.

This is where you come back to what you answered to the questions. Do you like your response? A human is living in a reality, and your answers are the universal law there. Will they have an easy time with shifting? If you think so, then choose to not do any "rewiring" and act upon the answers you wrote, shifting in accordance to them as they have become the pillars of your reality. If you think the person's reality's laws regarding shifting are complicated, then you can choose to rewire them. This can be a simple manifestation. As it has no basis in the 3D yet, you will manifest it within seconds. You can either write it down, listen to a subliminal, or simply think of the new beliefs in your head (eg "I shift in seconds") and let go. Stop.

(Severely optional) strive for spiritual awakenings

*shrugs* I thought I should mention based on personal experience.

During shifting.

Confuse your logical brain

You don't have to give it validation. Instead, just make it unable to predict the next move of it creator. Its built to look at everything with skepticism.. but it has nothing when you don't give it the chance. For example, the anti method by @hrrtshape is the best example. I like that you can do this, pre-method like a little warm up. (You can also manifest to not think logically)

Know your game

To act like you're in a battle field is not the way to shift. You don't have to give the actual practice of shifting much or any importance. You know how to shift, then why is there a need to have plan B's and checking your own environment? You are the commander in front, you're the one switching the reality, your reality is not the one switching.

Senses shift last

Explained by @stilljuststardust here.

Be blind and deaf to each and everything other than your intended reality

...and be so obsessed with your intended reality. Live out entire days, you're there, no, time is not passing by, the previous reality has disappeared by your hyperfixation on your intended reality. Ever done that exercise where you stare at a dot for so long, everything around it disappears? Well then, EXACTLY. Make it dissapear. Make it dissappear by not giving it any more of your energy. ....how I shifted. This is based upon being your dr self, that's snatches away the spotlight from this current reality.

Keep yourself comfortable

All of you are experienced enough to know, you don't need to lay in the starfish position. But remove the unnecessary thought that if you dare move your finger you might mess up the whole attempt (This is a subconsciousness belief) here's how to not worry about your 3D: again, senses shift last, Your current reality = intended reality.

It is about breaking free from human functions

Your software is set to being an earthly human. This is why acting like your current reality (the noises from the environment, physical annoyances) are from your intended reality, helps. This allows you to trick your human brain and move forward. The more you try to make sense of shifting, the more less it'll make sense. You don't have to know everything about shifting. The point is to be awfully natural about it. Just like how you wake up in this current reality without any requirement. You don't overthink it, then why overthink shifting.

Hope I cleared everything, I spent 5 hours on this post. If anything is not clear, please send in an ask, I am 100% avaliable to answer anything amiss.

Now let's see how much time I take to actually make this post aesthetically pleasing, so people don't have to bleach their eyes or ruin their blogs with this.

Dedicated to @lilyblairkinda who gave me this idea, once.
