There’s nothing special about this method. N o t h i n g. I think the only reason this method even works for me is because this is my natural way of thinking—meaning that if you read that, automatically you’ll see how any method works for you + you don’t even need a method to shift. You don’t need anything anymore.
This is just a little technique I’ve done since I was a little kid to dissiciate (for fun), and now I’ve learned how to translate it into shifting, so that I shift in seconds. Like an over-explained “just decide to be in your DR and live in the end.”
Having said that, I have no idea if this works for other people. It’s how I shift in seconds, and can enter the void state, but it might be because of my collective beliefs that are at this point, deeply ingrained in my being.
Maybe it’ll work for you, maybe you’ll learn to do it for fun to freak yourself out, maybe it won’t click and that’s okay. Just let go of this idea that you’re not in control. Stop hanfing over your power to meditations, methods, the void, and shifting “tips,” hoping for that one line that will “fix” you, waiting for a new method to tell you why you’re “not shifting,” handing over your power to external crap you claim you want to control.
1) Do this when your awareness is most malleable: At night before bed (hypnagogia), middle of the night (WBTB), in the morning (hypnopompia), or anytime during the day when you’re calm. It’s completely up to you, but I feel that inducing an altered state of consciousness while you’re already in an altered state is better.
2) Get comfortable in whatever position you prefer, close your eyes or don’t, play brown noise or music if you want, but it doesn’t matter.
3) Observe your awareness. If you’re familiar with the concept of natural awareness, it’s exactly that. Become aware of awareness itself, identifying only with your awareness, letting everything else drop away. This is your true self, your vantage point. The way you do this is entirely specific to you. Some people just think about their awareness, some know how to pin-point it naturally, others just focus on the fact that they’re aware and dissociate with that.
*If I just focus on this step and don’t go further, I end up in the void. That’s because if I’m just observing my awareness, I automatically know that all else is illusion inside my awareness, so my environment melts away and I “enter” the void. There is nothing complicated about this process, so please don’t think it’s some grand thing. It’s literally just:
Me, observing my awareness: “Oh look, my true self :)”
Narrator: Clover got sucked into the void through a silly straw and will have an existential crisis about this tomorrow.
4) Observe your DR from the vantage point of the awareness that’s already inside it. Not visualizing, not forcing—simply letting your awareness be there, observing your DR environment the way it naturally would.
(I’m talking in circles to prove a point, so if I’m repeating myself, that’s why).
For example, right now you’re awareness itself. You know you’re in your CR because your senses—sight, sound, touch, taste, smell—are giving you signals inside your awareness. You look around, hear noises, feel the air, etc.
But when you’re lying in bed at night with your eyes closed, sight is gone. The only things left telling you you’re in your CR are sound, touch, taste, and smell. If you’re wearing earbuds, the sounds you hear don’t confirm your CR because you could hear them in any reality. Silence or soft sounds could be your DR too. The taste in your mouth would be the same in your DR. The feeling of your bed could match waking up in your DR.
The point is: If you strip away all your senses, the only thing confirming where you are is your awareness itself. The feeling of simply existing here. The knowing that you’re “here.” This doesn’t require visualization, only awareness.
Now that you’ve located that awareness, you can shift it to your DR. Take that exact feeling of simply being aware and place it in your DR. Now senses don’t matter, because you decided to be in your DR through awareness.
For why senses don’t determine location, see this post.
You’re observing your awareness in your DR, and now you’re there. You can strip away all senses, but you can never strip away awareness. Awareness is your true self, and awareness can be moved. If you became aware of your DR, you’re already inside your DR. All that’s left to do is recognize that. Let yourself know: “This is real, this is happening right now,” and really ground yourself in that undeniable fact. It’s not about senses or visualization, or even forced knowing you’re there. It’s about observing the fact that you’re aware in your DR from the vantage point of the awareness that’s there.
5) Pair it with the obvious: You’re aware in your DR. Think about that for a second: if you’re aware in your DR, it means you’re there. Obviously. Why wouldn’t you be in your DR if you’re observing your awareness in it right now? It literally makes no sense to assume otherwise.
You’ve been observing your awareness in your CR your entire life, from the vantage point of your awareness. That’s how you know you’re in your CR—because your awareness is observing itself here. That’s the mechanism that tells you “I’m here.”
Now, when you’re doing this method and flip your vantage point to observe your awareness in your DR—from your awareness—why the hell would you not be in your DR? There’s no logical loophole your brain can pull here. If your vantage point of awareness determines your “location,” and you are now observing your awareness in your DR, then by the very mechanism that has always proven your location to you, you are in your DR.
You’re no longer “here” in your CR. You’re in your DR, because that’s where your awareness is observing itself. It’s not complicated. It’s not wishful thinking or “pretending.” It’s the exact same structure of reality that’s always been running—now applied to your DR.
And yes, your brain will glitch out, scramble, grasp at straws, telling you “but but but” because it’s conditioned to assume your CR vantage point is permanent. It’s not. The vantage point is flexible, and you just proved it by moving your observation to your DR.
So let it sink in. Let it feel too real, like reality cracking open. Let the glitch happen, let the discomfort hit, let the confusion swirl and keep standing your ground:
There’s no logical reason you would still be in your CR right now. You have to be in your DR, because that’s what you’re observing.
Your vantage point has shifted. You’ve done it. Now, hold it.
It’s not done because you’re “faking it.” It’s done because you have the vantage, the evidence, the awareness, and the logic to prove it to yourself in real time. You observe your awareness in your DR. You let it be there. And it is.
The method is just:
1.get comfortable, 2. dissociate by observing your awareness and only identifying with it, 3. observe your awareness in your DR from the vantage point of being in your DR, 4. “If I’m aware in my DR, how the hell can I still be in my CR? Isn’t that the whole point? If I intended to shift, doesn’t that automatically mean I shifted? I can’t perform an action and not get the outcome of that action. It doesn’t make sense for me not to be in my DR. dafuq”
Click this if this was too convoluted to understand
That was the simplified version. But for the people who still feel like they don’t get it, or aren’t sure how to locate their own awareness, read on.
Disclaimer: We will be using dissociation intentionally. If that's something you struggle with, have trauma around, or if it negatively impacts your mental health, be cautious. Don’t do this. No shifting method, technique, or “reality” is worth sacrificing your health for. Ever. Your well-being comes first. Always.
How to Become Aware of Your Own Awareness (and Control What You’re Aware Of)
At first glance, it sounds like a paradox: how can you be aware of being aware? Isn’t awareness just… happening? Isn’t it passive, like a window things pass through? That’s exactly the point. Most of the time, awareness is transparent. You’re so focused on what it’s pointed at—your phone, your thoughts, the itch on your neck—that you don’t notice it. But once you learn to turn awareness back onto itself, it’s like noticing your breath for the first time: you realize you’re the one controlling it.
Let’s break it down with the breathing example. We don’t usually notice our breathing; it’s automatic, subconscious. But the moment you read this and become aware of it, suddenly you’re controlling it (sorry if I made you notice ߹𖥦߹). That “manual” feeling is the moment consciousness turns inward. The invisible becomes visible.
Now let’s apply that same logic to awareness. For this, I’ll give you three techniques. All of them work the same, but you test out each one and see which of them fit you. And I mean really try. Don’t just passively try one and then speed through the list, because that’s how you’ll reach the end feeling disheartened that none of them worked for you. (And they all do) (that’s why I’m giving you three)
What I’m sharing now is a technique to help you identify purely with your awareness throughout your day. We’ll translate them to shifting later. This is a way to become your true self—pure awareness—and to see through the illusion, recognizing how flimsy its construction really is. The crucial point in all these exercises, whichever one you choose, is to focus entirely on YOUR AWARENESS. This focus is essential because the goal here is to learn how to become pure awareness at will.
Some people might have already done this before, especially when they were kids. And if it’s something that you can already do at will regularly, you’ll read this and go “ooohh I know what you’re talking about. That thing.” Yeah, that thing asdfghjk. So if you already know how to do it, just skip to the shifting part.
#1 The Fixed Point Method
Pick any fixed point—your phone, a book, the wall, a banana, a floor tile, a cup, literally anything around you. Stare at it without shifting your gaze. You can blink, that’s fine, just keep your attention anchored there.
As you stare, quietly repeat in your mind: “I am aware right now.” Keep repeating it while letting your awareness settle on being aware as you stare.
Over time, you’ll notice the room around you begins to blur or fade. Your body may start to feel distant or unreal, sounds will become muffled, and you may feel like you’re sinking inward, floating behind your eyes.
This happens because your awareness is locking onto a single point while withdrawing from everything else, similar to how the Troxler effect makes your peripheral vision fade when you fixate on one spot for long enough. Except, unlike the Troxler effect, this isn’t just a visual trick. It’s a shift in awareness itself, pulling your focus away from the environment and into the raw, pure fact that you are aware.
Stay in this state until you feel hyper-real, detached, and clear—like you’re seeing the world from a layer behind your thoughts. Congratulations, you now know what it feels like to be a toddler who’s just gained consciousness :)
#2 The “This Is All Happening Right Now” Method
My personal favorite and the one I use all the time. Sit or lay down comfortably. Focus on the fact that you are alive and aware right now. You. Focus on you. Look at your hands, your feet, your body, and repeat out loud “This is all happening right now. This is really happening right now.” The point is for you to become hyper-aware of the fact that you are alive and experiencing reality right this second.
Each time you say it, feel your aliveness, your awareness, your existence. The glitch will kick in, the present moment will feel dreamlike, everything will feel too real, like reality is cracking open.
Let yourself fall into that glitchy hyper-awareness until the environment feels like a lucid dream.
And that’s the fun part, because it DOES feel like a lucid dream. It’s freaky.
#3 The Reality Check Method
It’s the exact same method from above, except this time you pivot your focus away from your body and existence, to the environment around you. Sit or stand and look around your room.
Observe everything: the walls, objects, lights, shadows.
Say to yourself: “This is really happening right now. This is my reality.”
Let yourself feel how strange it is to exist, to see, to hear. Keep repeating and observing until the environment starts to feel detached from you while you remain aware, like you are observing a simulation. Stay in that dissonance until you slip into full dissociation, where reality starts to feel like a lucid dream.
(*If you tried these, and you realized they all rolled into one single method !! it’s okay !! It happens !! it’s actually better if you tailor it to fit what works for you)
When you become aware of your awareness, your mind pulls back from the movie screen and sees itself projecting. Reality starts feeling hyper-real, sharpened, dreamlike, like colors are popping, air feels thick, and your thoughts get quiet. You feel dissociation, but it’s not emptiness—it’s clarity. It’s like a glitch, because your awareness is detaching from the illusion of continuity you’ve been fed.
You feel like you’re “behind your eyes,” watching yourself watching. The longer you stay here, the more you feel how reality is mediated through you. All sights, sounds, sensations, all of reality—filtered through awareness. It’s eerie to realize that everything is happening inside your consciousness, not outside of it. And that’s because it is.
For the people who want to enter the void with this:
Just take the method that worked for you during the day, and instead of your CR environment or body, replace it with awareness.
1) The fixed point should be your awareness OR the black behind your eyelids.
2) “Oh my god this is happening right now” should be as you observe your awareness instead of your body—freaking out like “I’m just my awareness, this is really happening right now, I’m just my awareness.”
3) And instead of a reality check while looking at your surroundings, you’re going to observe the black behind your eyelids while you say, for example, “This is really happening right now. I’m in the void, this is real.”
And that’s it. The rest of this post is for people looking to shift realities (or manifest tbh), sooo happy diving into the void <3
Applying this to reality shifting
When you say: “I am aware of my DR,” you are observing your DR within awareness. But because awareness is the vantage point, if you are observing your DR within it, then you are already ‘in’ your DR as far as vantage and experience go.
There is no separation between: “being aware of DR” and “being in DR,” because all experience is happening within awareness itself.
In simple terms:
You are always “aware of.”
But because everything you are “aware of” is happening within awareness, you are “in” it from the vantage of experience. The reason “aware of DR” = “aware in DR” is because you can only ever experience your DR inside awareness, and awareness is the vantage point of being “in.” The illusion is thinking your body is the vantage point. It’s not—awareness is.
You’ve trained yourself to identify as your awareness using these methods. Now, to shift, you simply do the exact same methods with your DR as your vantage point.
#1 The Fixed Point Method → Shifting Version
What you did: You stared at a fixed point until everything blurred, letting yourself become only awareness.
How to shift with it: Lie down, close your eyes. Let your awareness itself become the fixed point. Not the wall, not an object; your awareness. Don’t visualize your DR, don’t try to see it. You can if you’d like, and it might boost this, but it’s not necessary at all.
Lock your focus onto your awareness and know: “I am aware of my DR right now.” “My DR is here.” “I am only awareness.” Just like you did before, except now the vantage point is wherever you’re waking up in your DR.
Let your CR blur out as you tunnel your focus onto awareness, with your DR as its location. Let everything else dissolve. That’s it.
#2 “This Is Really Happening Right Now” Method → Shifting Version
What it was: You repeated “This is really happening right now” while focusing on your body, your entire being, becoming hyper-aware that you are alive and here.
How to shift with it: Lie down, close your eyes, get still, yada yada yada.
Now, instead of focusing on your CR body as your vantage point, recognize that your awareness is always inside a body—and you decide which body that vantage point belongs to. Your DR body is this body, right now, because your awareness is what makes it so. Your DR body isn’t somewhere out there in another location. It’s here, now, because you are observing it.
So instead of focusing on your CR body by looking at it, you’re going to focus on your DR body by being aware of it. By shifting your awareness vantage point to the one that’s in your DR body. This could include visualization if you want, but it’s not necessary, because the visuals are not the focus. The awareness is.
*If I tell you to just “be” in your body right now, you just are. You know it, claim it, a firm “yes, I’m in my body right now.” You don’t call it your “CR body”, it’s just “your body.” That’s because you’re in the vantage point of your body always. To shift it to your DR body, it’s the same thing. There’s no rationalizing, just “yes, I’m aware of my body, I’m aware in my body right now” from the vantage point in your DR.
*If that sounds too complicated, it’s just like “pretend you’re existing in your DR body while being in your DR” just stronger.
Start repeating:
“This is really happening right now.”
“I am in my DR right now.”
“I am aware in my DR.”
Don’t say these as if you’re hoping for it to happen; say them while letting your awareness claim the vantage point of your DR as your here-and-now.
With each repetition, let it hit:
– Your vantage point is now your DR vantage point.
– Your awareness is your DR self, right here, right now.
– This is not pretend. This is your perspective now.
Allow that hyper-real, glitchy feeling to bubble up as the illusion of separation collapses. You are not waiting to shift. You are becoming aware that you are already shifted.
That’s your shift. That’s it.
#3 Reality Check Method → Shifting Version
What it was: In your CR, you’d look around and repeat “This is real, this is happening” to become hyper-aware of your surroundings.
How to shift with it: Lie down, close your eyes. Become aware of your awareness itself. Let it locate in your DR vantage point, just like you would in your CR when looking around.
(edit: you can also have your eyes open and look around your room in the pitch black darkness, becoming aware that it’s your DR room, just like this anon did :)
Without visualizing, know your DR is right there. You aren’t trying to see it; you know it is there, and your awareness automatically knows where it is and begins to move within it.
Repeat: “This is real.” “This is my reality.” “I am here right now.” “This is happening right now.”
All while moving your awareness around your DR environment, letting it sink in that you’re here, in your DR, because you’re aware in it. Let yourself notice how strange and obvious it is that your DR is right there, right now. Let yourself feel how your awareness is already aware there, scanning your DR the way it would scan your CR.
This isn’t forcing, and it isn’t visualization. It’s allowing your awareness to take its natural place in your DR vantage point, observing that it’s there, because it is. Let that glitchy, lucid feeling stabilize.
In my opinion, observing your awareness is the root mechanism behind how you manifest things, even unconsciously. When you decide you want something, you automatically begin observing your awareness in the outcome—whether you realize it or not. That act of observing places your vantage point in the reality where it’s yours, and your awareness “renders” the experience.
Examples:
• You decide you want a specific text, and suddenly you find yourself checking your phone, aware of the possibility of it arriving—and it does.
• You decide you want a specific item, and you find yourself daydreaming about having it—and then you stumble across it on sale or someone gifts it to you.
• You decide you want clear skin, and you find yourself observing your reflection as if it’s already clear—and your skin improves rapidly.
You aren’t “forcing” these things to happen; you’re shifting your awareness toward the reality where they already are. That’s the real mechanism behind manifestation: awareness observes, vantage aligns, reality reflects.
I’m not sure I did a good job explaining this, but I don’t even know how to explain this to people. That’s because shifting is not some grand ritual or complicated checklist for me. It’s just something I do, without ceremony, without second-guessing, without spiraling about whether it’s “working.”
I decide I want to shift, so I lie down, let everything go quiet, and simply observe my awareness in my DR. That’s it. It happens.
But it’s not random. It works because it’s the natural culmination of everything I believe:
• I know that awareness is the only real vantage point. I know that “aware of” and “aware in” are the same, so if I observe my DR, I’m already there.
• I know reality is an illusion built on continuity, and I don’t need to “cross over” physically to get somewhere I already am.
• I know action = outcome no matter what, so if I take the action of observing my awareness in my DR, there’s no logical reason why I wouldn’t be in it.
• I know that desires manifest instantly when I observe them as done, because vantage determines experience.
• I know I don’t need to convince myself while doing it, because the proof is already there. Proof of the desired outcome is the decision you already have it.
It’s not something I “try.” It just is for me, because I trust the framework I’ve built. That’s why I don’t overcomplicate it. I don’t wait for a sign, a feeling, or for something to “click.” I don’t spiral over whether it’s “working.”
I just become my awareness, observe that awareness in my DR, and it happens. Because there’s nowhere else I could logically be.
Even if you don’t find this helpful as a shifting method, you can still incorporate pieces of it in whatever works for you. WHY?
There’s nothing special about this method. N o t h i n g. I think the only reason this method even works for me is because this is my natural way of thinking—meaning that if you read that, automatically you’ll see how any method works for you + you don’t even need a method to shift. You don’t need anything anymore.
This is just a little technique I’ve done since I was a little kid to dissiciate (for fun), and now I’ve learned how to translate it into shifting, so that I shift in seconds. Like an over-explained “just decide to be in your DR and live in the end.”
Having said that, I have no idea if this works for other people. It’s how I shift in seconds, and can enter the void state, but it might be because of my collective beliefs that are at this point, deeply ingrained in my being.
Maybe it’ll work for you, maybe you’ll learn to do it for fun to freak yourself out, maybe it won’t click and that’s okay. Just let go of this idea that you’re not in control. Stop hanfing over your power to meditations, methods, the void, and shifting “tips,” hoping for that one line that will “fix” you, waiting for a new method to tell you why you’re “not shifting,” handing over your power to external crap you claim you want to control.

How to Become Aware of Your Own Awareness (and Control What You’re Aware Of)
At first glance, it sounds like a paradox: how can you be aware of being aware? Isn’t awareness just… happening? Isn’t it passive, like a window things pass through? That’s exactly the point. Most of the time, awareness is transparent. You’re so focused on what it’s pointed at—your phone, your thoughts, the itch on your neck—that you don’t notice it. But once you learn to turn awareness back onto itself, it’s like noticing your breath for the first time: you realize you’re the one controlling it.
Let’s break it down with the breathing example. We don’t usually notice our breathing; it’s automatic, subconscious. But the moment you read this and become aware of it, suddenly you’re controlling it (sorry if I made you notice ߹𖥦߹). That “manual” feeling is the moment consciousness turns inward. The invisible becomes visible.
Now let’s apply that same logic to awareness. For this, I’ll give you three techniques. All of them work the same, but you test out each one and see which of them fit you. And I mean really try. Don’t just passively try one and then speed through the list, because that’s how you’ll reach the end feeling disheartened that none of them worked for you. (And they all do) (that’s why I’m giving you three)
What I’m sharing now is a technique to help you identify purely with your awareness throughout your day. We’ll translate them to shifting later. This is a way to become your true self—pure awareness—and to see through the illusion, recognizing how flimsy its construction really is. The crucial point in all these exercises, whichever one you choose, is to focus entirely on YOUR AWARENESS. This focus is essential because the goal here is to learn how to become pure awareness at will.
Some people might have already done this before, especially when they were kids. And if it’s something that you can already do at will regularly, you’ll read this and go “ooohh I know what you’re talking about. That thing.” Yeah, that thing asdfghjk. So if you already know how to do it, just skip to the shifting part.
#1 The Fixed Point Method
Pick any fixed point—your phone, a book, the wall, a banana, a floor tile, a cup, literally anything around you. Stare at it without shifting your gaze. You can blink, that’s fine, just keep your attention anchored there.
As you stare, quietly repeat in your mind: “I am aware right now.” Keep repeating it while letting your awareness settle on being aware as you stare.
Over time, you’ll notice the room around you begins to blur or fade. Your body may start to feel distant or unreal, sounds will become muffled, and you may feel like you’re sinking inward, floating behind your eyes.
This happens because your awareness is locking onto a single point while withdrawing from everything else, similar to how the Troxler effect makes your peripheral vision fade when you fixate on one spot for long enough. Except, unlike the Troxler effect, this isn’t just a visual trick. It’s a shift in awareness itself, pulling your focus away from the environment and into the raw, pure fact that you are aware.
Stay in this state until you feel hyper-real, detached, and clear—like you’re seeing the world from a layer behind your thoughts. Congratulations, you now know what it feels like to be a toddler who’s just gained consciousness :)
#2 The “This Is All Happening Right Now” Method
My personal favorite and the one I use all the time. Sit or lay down comfortably. Focus on the fact that you are alive and aware right now. You. Focus on you. Look at your hands, your feet, your body, and repeat out loud “This is all happening right now. This is really happening right now.” The point is for you to become hyper-aware of the fact that you are alive and experiencing reality right this second.
Each time you say it, feel your aliveness, your awareness, your existence. The glitch will kick in, the present moment will feel dreamlike, everything will feel too real, like reality is cracking open.
Let yourself fall into that glitchy hyper-awareness until the environment feels like a lucid dream.
And that’s the fun part, because it DOES feel like a lucid dream. It’s freaky.
#3 The Reality Check Method
It’s the exact same method from above, except this time you pivot your focus away from your body and existence, to the environment around you. Sit or stand and look around your room.
Observe everything: the walls, objects, lights, shadows.
Say to yourself: “This is really happening right now. This is my reality.”
Let yourself feel how strange it is to exist, to see, to hear. Keep repeating and observing until the environment starts to feel detached from you while you remain aware, like you are observing a simulation. Stay in that dissonance until you slip into full dissociation, where reality starts to feel like a lucid dream.
(*If you tried these, and you realized they all rolled into one single method !! it’s okay !! It happens !! it’s actually better if you tailor it to fit what works for you)
When you become aware of your awareness, your mind pulls back from the movie screen and sees itself projecting. Reality starts feeling hyper-real, sharpened, dreamlike, like colors are popping, air feels thick, and your thoughts get quiet. You feel dissociation, but it’s not emptiness—it’s clarity. It’s like a glitch, because your awareness is detaching from the illusion of continuity you’ve been fed.
You feel like you’re “behind your eyes,” watching yourself watching. The longer you stay here, the more you feel how reality is mediated through you. All sights, sounds, sensations, all of reality—filtered through awareness. It’s eerie to realize that everything is happening inside your consciousness, not outside of it. And that’s because it is.
For the people who want to enter the void with this:
Just take the method that worked for you during the day, and instead of your CR environment or body, replace it with awareness.
1) The fixed point should be your awareness OR the black behind your eyelids.
2) “Oh my god this is happening right now” should be as you observe your awareness instead of your body—freaking out like “I’m just my awareness, this is really happening right now, I’m just my awareness.”
3) And instead of a reality check while looking at your surroundings, you’re going to observe the black behind your eyelids while you say, for example, “This is really happening right now. I’m in the void, this is real.”
And that’s it. The rest of this post is for people looking to shift realities (or manifest tbh), sooo happy diving into the void <3
Applying this to reality shifting
When you say: “I am aware of my DR,” you are observing your DR within awareness. But because awareness is the vantage point, if you are observing your DR within it, then you are already ‘in’ your DR as far as vantage and experience go.
There is no separation between: “being aware of DR” and “being in DR,” because all experience is happening within awareness itself.
In simple terms:
You are always “aware of.”
But because everything you are “aware of” is happening within awareness, you are “in” it from the vantage of experience. The reason “aware of DR” = “aware in DR” is because you can only ever experience your DR inside awareness, and awareness is the vantage point of being “in.” The illusion is thinking your body is the vantage point. It’s not—awareness is.
You’ve trained yourself to identify as your awareness using these methods. Now, to shift, you simply do the exact same methods with your DR as your vantage point.
#1 The Fixed Point Method → Shifting Version
What you did: You stared at a fixed point until everything blurred, letting yourself become only awareness.
How to shift with it: Lie down, close your eyes. Let your awareness itself become the fixed point. Not the wall, not an object; your awareness. Don’t visualize your DR, don’t try to see it. You can if you’d like, and it might boost this, but it’s not necessary at all.
Lock your focus onto your awareness and know: “I am aware of my DR right now.” “My DR is here.” “I am only awareness.” Just like you did before, except now the vantage point is wherever you’re waking up in your DR.
Let your CR blur out as you tunnel your focus onto awareness, with your DR as its location. Let everything else dissolve. That’s it.
#2 “This Is Really Happening Right Now” Method → Shifting Version
What it was: You repeated “This is really happening right now” while focusing on your body, your entire being, becoming hyper-aware that you are alive and here.
How to shift with it: Lie down, close your eyes, get still, yada yada yada.
Now, instead of focusing on your CR body as your vantage point, recognize that your awareness is always inside a body—and you decide which body that vantage point belongs to. Your DR body is this body, right now, because your awareness is what makes it so. Your DR body isn’t somewhere out there in another location. It’s here, now, because you are observing it.
So instead of focusing on your CR body by looking at it, you’re going to focus on your DR body by being aware of it. By shifting your awareness vantage point to the one that’s in your DR body. This could include visualization if you want, but it’s not necessary, because the visuals are not the focus. The awareness is.
*If I tell you to just “be” in your body right now, you just are. You know it, claim it, a firm “yes, I’m in my body right now.” You don’t call it your “CR body”, it’s just “your body.” That’s because you’re in the vantage point of your body always. To shift it to your DR body, it’s the same thing. There’s no rationalizing, just “yes, I’m aware of my body, I’m aware in my body right now” from the vantage point in your DR.
*If that sounds too complicated, it’s just like “pretend you’re existing in your DR body while being in your DR” just stronger.
Start repeating:
“This is really happening right now.”
“I am in my DR right now.”
“I am aware in my DR.”
Don’t say these as if you’re hoping for it to happen; say them while letting your awareness claim the vantage point of your DR as your here-and-now.
With each repetition, let it hit:
– Your vantage point is now your DR vantage point.
– Your awareness is your DR self, right here, right now.
– This is not pretend. This is your perspective now.
Allow that hyper-real, glitchy feeling to bubble up as the illusion of separation collapses. You are not waiting to shift. You are becoming aware that you are already shifted.
That’s your shift. That’s it.
#3 Reality Check Method → Shifting Version
What it was: In your CR, you’d look around and repeat “This is real, this is happening” to become hyper-aware of your surroundings.
How to shift with it: Lie down, close your eyes. Become aware of your awareness itself. Let it locate in your DR vantage point, just like you would in your CR when looking around.
(edit: you can also have your eyes open and look around your room in the pitch black darkness, becoming aware that it’s your DR room, just like this anon did :)
Without visualizing, know your DR is right there. You aren’t trying to see it; you know it is there, and your awareness automatically knows where it is and begins to move within it.
Repeat: “This is real.” “This is my reality.” “I am here right now.” “This is happening right now.”
All while moving your awareness around your DR environment, letting it sink in that you’re here, in your DR, because you’re aware in it. Let yourself notice how strange and obvious it is that your DR is right there, right now. Let yourself feel how your awareness is already aware there, scanning your DR the way it would scan your CR.
This isn’t forcing, and it isn’t visualization. It’s allowing your awareness to take its natural place in your DR vantage point, observing that it’s there, because it is. Let that glitchy, lucid feeling stabilize.
In my opinion, observing your awareness is the root mechanism behind how you manifest things, even unconsciously. When you decide you want something, you automatically begin observing your awareness in the outcome—whether you realize it or not. That act of observing places your vantage point in the reality where it’s yours, and your awareness “renders” the experience.
Examples:
• You decide you want a specific text, and suddenly you find yourself checking your phone, aware of the possibility of it arriving—and it does.
• You decide you want a specific item, and you find yourself daydreaming about having it—and then you stumble across it on sale or someone gifts it to you.
• You decide you want clear skin, and you find yourself observing your reflection as if it’s already clear—and your skin improves rapidly.
You aren’t “forcing” these things to happen; you’re shifting your awareness toward the reality where they already are. That’s the real mechanism behind manifestation: awareness observes, vantage aligns, reality reflects.
I’m not sure I did a good job explaining this, but I don’t even know how to explain this to people. That’s because shifting is not some grand ritual or complicated checklist for me. It’s just something I do, without ceremony, without second-guessing, without spiraling about whether it’s “working.”
I decide I want to shift, so I lie down, let everything go quiet, and simply observe my awareness in my DR. That’s it. It happens.
But it’s not random. It works because it’s the natural culmination of everything I believe:
• I know that awareness is the only real vantage point. I know that “aware of” and “aware in” are the same, so if I observe my DR, I’m already there.
• I know reality is an illusion built on continuity, and I don’t need to “cross over” physically to get somewhere I already am.
• I know action = outcome no matter what, so if I take the action of observing my awareness in my DR, there’s no logical reason why I wouldn’t be in it.
• I know that desires manifest instantly when I observe them as done, because vantage determines experience.
• I know I don’t need to convince myself while doing it, because the proof is already there. Proof of the desired outcome is the decision you already have it.
It’s not something I “try.” It just is for me, because I trust the framework I’ve built. That’s why I don’t overcomplicate it. I don’t wait for a sign, a feeling, or for something to “click.” I don’t spiral over whether it’s “working.”
I just become my awareness, observe that awareness in my DR, and it happens. Because there’s nowhere else I could logically be.
Even if you don’t find this helpful as a shifting method, you can still incorporate pieces of it in whatever works for you. WHY?

Hey yall 👋🏽I saw my moot @vampireprinceshifts post about their loa success stories and I thought I’d post mine because I have so many 😭most of them would be considered “impossible”
1. Manifested a full 360 body change. Context: I was born male but I’m gay asf and wanted those tea hourglass bodies you see on Pinterest. Saw one and added it to my board and affirmed for it. One day I woke up with a little waist and an ass the size of Jupiter as a male who previously had zero curves. I also manifested long fluffy fairy lashes. I recently started wearing more feminine clothing and so my body is way more visible. Sooo many people make comments about how curvy I am now.
2. Manifested 400k followers on my twt acc. Context: this happened in 2024 when I wanted to be a loa influencer. I manifested 400k followers but I deleted my account after getting bored and discovering shiftblr.
3. Manifested getting into uni despite having a bad highschool record. Context: I got suspended and it went on my record lmao. My parents were telling me that this uni was real strict and probably wouldn’t let me in but GUESS WHO AFFIRMED AGAINST IT???? ME BITCHHHHHH!!!! I ended up dropping out tho cuz why work hard when I can get money for free without a fuck ass degree??
4. Manifested THREE boys falling in love with me who were all previously proclaimed straight men.
5. Manifested millions of reads on my Webtoon + being a pro artist despite zero experience Context: I’ve always wanted to be a comic artist / creator but I previously couldn’t draw for shit.
6. Manifested 500 tumblr followers in a month context: I have a thing with manifesting shit without wanting to. I remember once that I said I’d like to be at 500 followers and then a couple weeks later I checked and I was there 😭😭I didn’t even mean for this
7. Manifested my parents not getting a divorce. Context: it was my father’s fault. He’s still a dixk today but I don’t care to change him 🤷🏽♀️
8. (Manifesting) not having to work ever a day in my life yet be a multimillionaire. Context: doing this through various means such as manifesting success on my comics and manifesting that I get published by the biggest publishing houses in the world in a couple years. Hasn’t happened in the 3D yet cuz I’m choosing to wait !!
9. Manifested BETTER HEALTH!!! Context: I had a health scare recently and wanted to go to the doctor and then the next day I RANDOMLY got a call from them asking to schedule my appointment.
10. Manifested getting rid of my toxic “bsf” and having peace. Context: Now my social life is full of life and love and I actually have time to spend with my amazing friends… and also I’m manifesting a good bf !!
11. Manifesting seeing my dream car everyday as a sign that I’ll get it soon. Context: I literally see it everyday on my way to campus not joking bruh. I even see broke professors driving it… ITS A SIGN CREATED BY MEEEEEE
12. Manifesting getting compliments and being the ultimate fem diva. Context: I get compliments every day in class
13. Manifested getting into a college class months after the signup deadline. Context: I got into it literally seconds after affirming I’d get in. I ended up hating the class.
Theres plentyyyyy more stuff i forgot to add in here. If yall want a pt. 2 let me know!!! Also lmk if you want me to elaborate on certain successes!! Manifesting is the easiest thing you could do. All it takes is knowing that you have what you want and not letting ANYTHING tell you otherwise! Trust it can happen!!!!! It HAS to.
If you want to shift, use LOA. It’s the only method that really works and i despise that this community ist starting to lean towards anti loa ideals. That shit makes no sense… how can you hate on believing in yourself??? In success??? The forced struggle arc is so washed omfgggg yall be safe chi 😂😂🤣
