just saw a bullshit video on tiktok about someone saying shifting was fake and it GOT 500K LIKES. Don't let videos like that unmotivate u bc shifting is genuinely real. If it was fake we would've stopped talking about it.
i feel like i’m losing my mind jejwbwbwjqjw
can someone please give me advice on something? i’ve never really seen anyone dealing with what i have been, and i just don’t know what to do anymore.
for the billionth time i’ve tried to shift subconsciously in a dream. and this time, like other times, i wasn’t even lucid yet i was convinced i shifted. but this was just a dream. and like i’ve said before, this has happened multiple times, in different ways too.
today i was convinced i shifted, not to any dr of mine but in the dream i was ok with that. i don’t remember what was happening before really but i just started doing a method i guess till eventually it “ worked ” i didn’t have my senses, but i focused on all of them until i was “ fully grounded ”.
but i am certain it was a dream, no matter what i thought at the time, i didn’t have all my senses. it wasn’t secure like real life.
it’s honestly frustrating that this keeps happening. so maybe someone out there has some advice.
shifting diary entry #14
4/27/25
࿔ this morning i woke up about and hour or two before my alarm was supposed to go off and when i went back to sleep at some point my dream began to be about shifting.
࿔ i was talking to my sister and she confessed to me that she was going to start shifting again ( she knows about shifting and after she shifted once a couple years ago she decided to not do it again )
࿔ i thought that i should probably give her some advice and thought to tell her things like you don’t need a method, you can use one of course but it’s not necessary. shifting isn’t physical, it’s mental. i talked to her about letting go, and that all shifting is is becoming aware of different circumstances, a different reality.
࿔ she confided in me on her views on shifting, which were probably just mine anyways.
࿔ then she just told me comforting and motivational words. told me she believed in me and that she knows i can do it too. ( which isn’t the first time someone in my dream told me this )
࿔ i’m not entirely sure what to make of this, but i wish i didn’t wake up in the middle of it probably was gonna be a another dream where i subconsciously tried to shift
you can feel lost and still make progress.
feeling stuck doesn’t mean you’re failing. feeling lost doesn’t mean you’re not moving forward. if anything, it’s proof that you’re growing.
that uncertainty? that frustration? that feeling like nothing is happening? that’s what happens when you’re pushing past old limits. your mind is adjusting, your beliefs are shifting, and your awareness is expanding—even if it doesn’t feel like it yet.
growth isn’t always obvious. when you’re manifesting something like shifting, a lot of invisible factors are going to weigh in but feeling lost and still choosing to keep going is what pushes you forward.
so keep trying. the progress is already happening.
‧₊˚ ⋅ I love how natural and easy shifting is. All I need is my intention; no methods, no subliminals, no affirmations. Shifting is literally so simple. I love waking up in my chosen reality every day. ౨ৎ ‧₊ .ᐟ
Senses shift last
If you've been in any shifting community for any period of time, you must have already heard this sentence.
Senses shift last.
It's an explanation, an unspoken rule, an understanding that when you sit down to shift, the last thing that completes the shift is your senses.
But what if I told you that your senses don't shift at all?
Let's go back to the basic, most simple definition of reality shifting:
Becoming aware of another reality.
This simply means that when you choose to shift, your awareness, your consciousness, is the only thing that shifts. Not your body, not your brain, and most definitely not your senses.
So, how does it work?
Well, as you shift, and you become aware of a different reality, you become conscious of a different version of you with a different brain and a different stream of thoughts and a different body and—you guessed it, different senses altogether.
Maybe your vision is better or you have supernatural hearing. Maybe your sense of taste is enhanced and your buds are miraculous, maybe you feel things 100x more than this reality allows and you're hyper aware of everything around you. The point is, your current reality self's body remains here, and so its senses stay behind as well.
If you know that your senses don't shift, and you know that no matter what you hear, see, feel... Is irrelevant because it's your awareness that shifts, doesn't that take off a shit ton of stress off your shoulders?
As soon as you turn your awareness to a different reality, as soon as you start thinking as your desired reality self, feeling their feelings, immersing yourself in their surrounding, you have shifted. "But I can still feel my bed and I'm supposed to be on a train or a plane or riding a dragon through the seven skies!" Irrelevant. Unimportant. Inconsequential.
Focus on what you see, hear, or feel in imagination. That's where you truly are. As long as you stay there and you don't question your destination, you're bound to shift.
Haven't you ever wondered how people shift awake? How they shift on planes or in cars or in the middle of a nosy park? Where you are doesn't matter. What you see or hear doesn't matter. You don't question your dr and complain about the noise of your family and friends when you shift for a few seconds and claim they ruined the shift for you by distracting you! Why should this reality be any different? So what if you feel a velvet duvet instead of satin sheets? So what if you can hear your siblings fighting instead of your s/o calling your name? So what if you can see flashing lights behind your closed eyelids instead of your ceiling or the sky or a unicorn's ass?
Your senses aren't shifting with you, and that doesn't mean that you have failed! Not at all! You shifted successfully the second you decided to park your ass on your bed and chair and shift.
Which brings me to my final point in this semi-long rant:
Grounding yourself when you wake up in your dr.
Let me ask you something: do you ground yourself when you wake up in your cr? Do you open your eyes and start hyperventilating because you're in your room? Do you start freaking out because your family or your partner walked in?
No. You don't. Because it's just another day in the same room you've been waking up in for years.
It's the same thing for your dr. Unless your dr self has amnesia the exact same second you shift, they have been waking up in the same bed, in the same room, with the same family/friends/roommates/partner for as long as they can remember. Shifting is a natural processes. You're not putting on a skin suit and pretending to be someone you're not. You are becoming aware of the person you have always been.
There will be no freaking out, no out of body experience, no looking in the mirror and squealing over your tight ass and new face. No blushing like a damsel when you see your s/o.
It's going to be natural. Like putting on your favorite pj's, like returning to a home that always made you feel safe and comfortable, like tasting your favorite snack again and getting flashbacks of your childhood memories.
It's going to be familiar, known, comfortable.
It's going to be you.
So stop freaking out over what could potentially happen when you "get there." You have always been there.
Now go shift, and stop stressing out so much about irrelevant details.
You are a shifter.
It's your destiny.
Happy Shifting ❤️
Lock tf in. Lock in with your manifestations, shifting, the void state WHATEVER! Put aside that “I can’t do it” mindset and tell yourself “I can get this shit down by TODAY”. It’s easy. Fuck doubts and negative thoughts cause they can’t do shit anyways. You wanna use a method? Search up a method and lock in. Don’t want to use a method? Don’t and STILL lock tf in. Stop being lazy and get serious about what it is that you want to achieve. You KNOW you can manifest, you KNOW you can shift, you KNOW you can enter the void state. Put that victim mentality up and LOCK TF IN!!
Emma, my love, what do do when absolutely nothing is working, an honest question, you can be mean I don’t mind
okay. cards on the table. if absolutely nothing is working, you have two options:::::
double down. lock in, recalibrate, rewire your brain like a little mad scientist in a gothic novel. go full delulu, full “i have seen the truth and it is malleable.” assume the shift has already happened and let reality cough up the proof. gaslight your own perception like it’s an avant-garde art piece.
let go. completely. stop trying, stop forcing, stop thinking about it like a problem to solve. go touch some grass (not metaphorically. literally. go outside. make physical contact with nature). let shifting become background noise instead of your entire existence. paradoxically, this is when things start clicking. like when you stop staring at a word and suddenly you remember how to spell it.
but !!!! if you’re in that horrible restless limbo, where you feel like you can’t let go but pushing harder isn’t doing anything either, my real answer is.......... switch things up. do something new, something fun, something so completely out of character that it shocks your system. make a new playlist, change your routine, wear something weird, eat something you’ve never had before. trick your brain into loosening its grip on the “stuck” feeling. you are not actually stuck. you are just circling the same neural pathways over and over again. step sideways. shift diagonally. watch what happens.
and also wise words from anon

I would just like to say— because i’ve had this thought for approximately 15 days now— if you feel super stuck or frustrated in your journey right now and also feel like your team isn’t helping out, or they’re giving you the same advice they always give, it’s likely because you’re closer to shifting than you currently think.
i’m gonna use hunger games as an example for this, bear with me but in the first book, katniss is dying of thirst and she resorts to just shouting up at the sky hoping that haymitch will get a sponsor to send her water. he does not. katniss is confused by this momentarily before realizing that sponsor gifts are given only by absolute necessity. which means, if haymitch is silent, then katniss is closer to water than she thinks. a couple minutes of walking later and she finds the fresh water stream…
view shifting in the same way. haymitch is your team or the universe if you will. you’re katniss. the water is your dr. you might feel stuck and lost right now and might not know what the hell is going on or why you haven’t shifted yet but in a few short steps you’re gonna get to your water source!
persist. don’t give up when you’re right at the finish line.
the hardest pill to swallow . . if you don’t assume, it won’t work
this isn’t tough love. this isn’t a scolding. this is just the mechanics of reality. this isn’t about blame. it’s not your fault, but it is your responsibility (i saw this quote somewhere and i really liked it, anyway). reality is malleable, but only if you stop acting like you’re at its mercy. stop waiting for permission. stop refreshing the page, stop tapping the glass. it’s done. act accordingly.
consider your brain an old, glitchy computer, whirring in the corner of your psyche, choking on its own outdated code. your subconscious doesn’t know what’s real versus imagined, it only knows the instructions you give it. and if those instructions are “this isn’t happening, i don’t see it, i don’t believe it,” well, congratulations, the system registers that as the blueprint. and it prints that out. over and over. like a bureaucratic nightmare, a kafka novel of your own making.
this is not to say that doubt is failure, doubt is human, doubt is a thrum in the background of any great creation. but if doubt is the occasional rainstorm, belief is the structural integrity of the house. belief holds. belief carries. belief is the scaffolding between you and the impossible, and without it, you are just standing in an empty field, waiting for architecture to spontaneously occur.
there’s a reason schrodinger’s cat remains the most infuriating hypothetical in quantum mechanics, because the cat is both alive and dead until you open the box. the observer collapses the wave function. and in this case, you are the observer. if you don’t believe it, you keep the box shut. if you do believe it, the universe is already rearranging itself around your conviction.
this is not new-age drivel. this is not a vision board with a quote about perseverance peeling off in the humidity. this is physics. have you ever thought about someone, and then they text you five minutes later? that’s the speed at which reality moves when you don’t get in your own way. you didn’t sit there clutching your skull, willing them into existence, you just assumed, with ease, with god-tier nonchalance. and because you weren’t scrutinising the timeline like a detective with a corkboard and red string and bloodied eyes, the message came through. the only thing standing between you and everything you want is the way you react to its absence. the hand-wringing, the despair, the creeping doubt, it’s a full-time job, and it pays in absolutely nothing.
which brings me to my next point: trying. trying is the problem. trying implies effort, and effort implies resistance, and resistance is another way of saying “i don’t actually believe i have this.” and you know what people do when they have things? they stop worrying about whether they have them. a person in possession of an apple does not pace the room, clutching their chest, whimpering, “but do i really have it?” they just eat the apple.
and before you say, “but look at my reality, it’s contradicting me,” i will say this once, and you must etch it into your mind like scripture: reality is old news. what you are seeing is just a delayed projection of past assumptions. do not react to it. do not engage with it. it is a rerun of a show you no longer care about. the moment you stop feeding into the contradictions, they wither. the moment you accept that what you want is already done, reality will course-correct. until then, it is an echo chamber of your previous doubts. ignore it like it’s a tabloid headline about a scandal that never actually happened.
flip the switch. decide, assume, move forward. no more “manifesting,” no more “waiting.” you don’t wait for what’s already yours. you don’t question a chair’s ability to hold you up before sitting down. you don’t send a letter and then agonise over whether the mail system still exists. you assume. you know. and so it is.
and before the panic sets in, no, this does not mean you must be a perfect disciple of unwavering belief. doubt will creep in, as it always does. you will have moments of existential dread, of scrutinising, of muttering “but what if” into your hands at 2 a.m. this is fine. this is human. just don’t let it become the dominant narrative. there will be moments where you feel like you're nowhere, like your manifestations have abandoned you and you're left with nothing but the weight of your own effort. do not, under any circumstances, entertain this lie. i will personally resurrect the fear of god just to drill this into you: do not. what you do instead is cry a little, wipe your face, and then lock the fuck in, because i swear on everything, sometimes, all it takes is a stretch of nothing to summon an abundance of everything. let the doubt pass through like an intrusive thought you refuse to entertain, like a pigeon that landed in your cafe but is not, in fact, your problem.
maybe this reminds you of when the soviets tried to scientifically disprove intuition, only to realise they had unintentionally proved it instead. maybe this reminds you of every ghost story you’ve ever heard, how the only ones who see them are the ones who expect to.
anyways. it’s all already happening. your only job is to get out of the way.
