Seeing Black Girls Like Me Shifting Makes My Heart Warm>>> LIKE OMG YOU TOO???

you cannot become what you already are.

"but i want" - you cannot become what you already have

"but i wanna be the one who-" there is no "one" you do not exist in a singular form. you cannot become what you already are.

"i need this physically because it reflects my-" there is no delayed reflection when you are constantly experiencing yourself. you cannot become what you are.

maybe instead of being bored and using that time bed rotting scrolling on tiktok, why not use that time to meditate and shift? 🤨

I don't want to know how or when I'll shift because that causes too much anxiety. I just simply want to be and do.

Welcome to my blog! I go by the name Kya, and I’m a 23 year old Black shifter. I’ve been part of the shifting community for over 5 years+ and have had my on-and-off moments with shifting. Since joining Tumblr, I hope to make new friends and connect with people who share similar interests!

Okay so this post is as much for me as it is for you guys. When I mentioned yoga nidra, I never really expected it to blow up to the extent it did. I finally got around to doing my research on it and I have A LOT to say. I've written this one post over 10 times now, trying to condense the information as much as I can so you guys aren't reading a whole essay. Anyways, let's just jump into it.

What is Yoga Nidra? Yoga Nidra is a powerful technique in which you learn to relax consciously. In Yoga Nidra, the state of relaxation is reached by turning inwards, away from outer experiences, it occurs at the threshold of sense consciousness and sleep consciousness. 

Is Yoga Nidra the Void State? Nope, it is not the void state. It is acctually the hypnagogic state.

What is the Hypnagogic State? Refer to this post. The tldr version is that the hypnagogic state is the transitional state your mind can experience which occurs during the onset of sleep.

I still dont get it. What is the difference between the Void State and Yoga Nidra/Hypnagogic State? The void state is a deep meditative state, where you allow thoughts to pass through your mind without judging them. This is a state where your mind is awake but your body is asleep. Yoga Nidra, or the hypnagogic state, is the transitional state of consciousness between wakefulness and sleep

So, is doing Yoga Nidra meditations to enter the Void State useless? Nope, it's still very useful. Basically, yoga nidra meditations takes you to the hypnagogic state, which is at the border of the void state and you just need to affirm and you'll be able to enter it easily.

What is 61 points meditation? The 61 points relaxation exercise, known as shava yatra, is a master practice of the Himalayan Tradition. By traveling mentally to 61 different internal points that correspond with energy-rich areas of the body, the purpose of a 61 points meditation is to capture the attention of a roving mind and train it to become inward and orderly.  

What is the correlation between 61 points meditation and Yoga Nidra? As touched upon earlier, the purpose of a 61 point meditation is to awaken and stabilize the body and mind for a deeper state of inner consciousness. This "deeper state of inner consciousness" is Yoga Nidra/the hypnagogic state.

I get confused between 61 points meditations versus Yoga Nidra meditations. What is the difference? Basically, a 61 points meditation is a method to enter Yoga Nidra. There are other methods but this is the most common one, praised for its effectiveness and how easy it is. Even meditations named "Yoga Nidra Meditation" are usually just 61 points meditations or another form of body scan meditation meant to take you to Yoga Nidra.

TLDR: Yoga Nidra is NOT THE VOID STATE. Yoga Nidra is the hypnagogic state. This is still super effective in helping you enter the void state though. You use 61 point meditations as a method to enter Yoga Nidra/the hypnagogic state and then affirm to enter the void.

I know love exists because shifters exist and they are traveling the multiverse for their loved ones.

Pro Tip for Affirmations

Add “I know” and/or “already” to your affirmations.

Example:

I know I am already in my DR.

I know I have already shifted to my DR.

I know that it is done already.

Doing this puts me back into the state of the wish fulfilled IMMEDIATELY if I’m having a bad day and start to waver.

Try it out!

being moots with ppl who i dont share any drs / interests with is so silly. like yes bestie i have no clue what you’re talking about but ilysm 😭

i love the diversity of shifters and why they shift ESPECIALLY on tumblr brah. like i love looking at people proudly shifting for their s/os, people proudly shifting for food or fame, people proudly shifting for the plot, people proudly shifting for legit anything and everything i love shifters
