guys im gonna manifest my ex who i havent spoken to in 3 years and have saw a solid 3 times in passing who is probably not good for me in the slightest because apparently choosing to unpack that in therapy one random november tuesday gives you an emotional aneurysm and now youre hyperfixating

Being homesick of a place you never went is not for the weak

[magickmarie]

Tried giving my shifting attempt more focus/structure than I usually do and I had a dream of not my man but I think my brain was aiming for that??? He sounded like Elvis LMAO and his face was very wrong but it was definitely meant to be my man

Dream me was very distracted by him and accidentally missed the plate entirely when trying to make a plate of noodles

Even if it wasn't entirely him he still be making me giddy 🥰

My “method” as a girl who’s shifted more times than she can count .

cute lil disclaimer, i do not believe methods can bring you to your dr on its own, but i do think they can help you get into a good place mentally when trying!

Also, my previous account was terminated, so if this looks familiar, it’s because it’s a repost !

001. make a playlist . It doesn’t matter what songs you put, as long as they resonate with you/your dr, it’s fine . try to make it lengthy, like 45-55 minutes, unless your okay with it looping back after a while .

002. Close your eyes and play the music . i recommended headphones, but it doesn’t matter . just meditate for now, breathing in and out, reflecting on your day in your car, etc .

003. After a few songs, begin to count to 100 . If you want, every five numbers, you can say an affirmation . I don’t do it regularly, but it helps when i need a push .

004. After you reach 100, start to think in the mind of your drself . You should be feeling kinda loopy by now, which is great . If not, that’s fine too . just start thinking about how your day in your dr is going, what you’re doing, who you’re with, etc . Try to be through and specific .

005. By this point, I’m already in my dr…, and i just wake up . Just keep affirming and talking about what you’re gonna do once you get there until you shift .

I’ve been told this is good as an asleep method as well, which you would just fall asleep after affirming you’re in your dr !

How To Use Sleep Stages For Reality Shifting, The Void State, Lucid Dreaming and Sleep Paralysis - In Depth Sleep Stages Guide

Sleep Stages and Brain Waves

Sleep is divided into four stages, including one for rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and three that make up non-REM (NREM) sleep. Each stage plays a different role in physical restoration, mental processing, and dreaming.

Stage 1 (N1) – Light Sleep

• Duration: 1–7 minutes

• Description:

Stage 1 is the lightest stage of sleep, occurring as a person first drifts off. The body hasn’t fully relaxed yet, though brain and muscle activity begin to slow with short bursts of movement.

It’s easy to wake someone during this phase, but if left undisturbed, they’ll quickly transition to Stage 2. As the night continues, very little time is spent in Stage 1 after the first cycle.

• Brain Activity:

Light changes in brain waves occur as the mind shifts from Alpha (relaxed wakefulness) to Theta waves (early sleep).

Stage 2 (N2) – Onset of True Sleep

• Duration: 10–25 minutes during the first cycle (longer in later cycles)

• Description:

The body enters a deeper state of relaxation. Body temperature drops, muscles loosen, and both heart rate and breathing slow down.

Eye movements stop, and while brain activity slows overall, there are brief bursts of faster waves called sleep spindles, which help block out external disturbances and protect sleep continuity.

• Significance:

People typically spend about half of their total sleep time in this stage.

Stage 3 (N3) – Deep Sleep / Delta Sleep

• Duration: 20–40 minutes early in the night (shortens in later cycles)

• Description:

Also known as deep sleep or slow-wave sleep (SWS), this is the most restorative stage. Muscle tone, pulse, and breathing rate all decrease significantly.

Brain activity is dominated by Delta waves (0–4 Hz) — the slowest and deepest brain waves.

• Importance:

Deep sleep allows for physical recovery, tissue growth, immune strengthening, and memory consolidation. Even though the brain is less active, this stage contributes to insightful thinking, creativity, and problem-solving.

Most deep sleep occurs in the first half of the night, with shorter N3 periods later as REM stages lengthen.

Stage 4 (REM Sleep) – Dream Stage

• Begins: About 90 minutes after falling asleep

• Duration: Increases with each cycle (up to 45–60 minutes near morning)

• Description:

REM is marked by rapid eye movement, intense brain activity, and temporary muscle paralysis (atonia) — except for the eyes and breathing muscles.

This stage produces the most vivid dreams, as brain activity resembles waking levels.

While dreams can occur in any sleep stage, they are most frequent and lifelike during REM.

• Significance:

REM makes up about 25% of total sleep in adults.

As the night progresses, REM stages lengthen and deep sleep shortens, which is why we often remember dreams from the early morning hours.

Brain Wave States

Brain activity changes throughout sleep, measured in Hertz (Hz) by an EEG (electroencephalogram). Each type of wave is linked to a specific state of consciousness.

The Hypnagogic State

Hypnagogia is the transitional phase between wakefulness and sleep, occurring when Alpha waves fade and Theta waves begin.

During this stage:

• The mind drifts between consciousness and sleep.

• People often experience vivid imagery, sounds, or sensations (known as hypnagogic hallucinations).

• It’s common to feel as if you’re falling or hear your name being called.

• A sudden muscle contraction, called a hypnic jerk, may occur.

Hypnagogia is the gateway to dreams, where awareness can blend with the dream world — a prime entry point for lucid dreaming, reality shifting, and deep meditative states.

When Lucid Dreaming Is Most Likely

As the night progresses:

• REM periods increase

• Deep sleep (N3) decreases

During the early morning hours, REM can last 45–60 minutes, making this the best time for lucid dreaming.

This is often called “prime dream time”, when you can remain conscious while the body stays deeply asleep.

Best Sleep Stages and Brain Waves for Altered States

Lucid Dreaming

⟢ REM sleep: When brain activity is high and vivid dreams occur. The body is paralyzed (atonia) but the mind is alert, combining Theta and light Beta waves.

⟢ Hypnagogic State (Alpha → Theta): By staying conscious as the body falls asleep, known as a Wake-Initiated Lucid Dream (WILD).

Reality Shifting

⟢ Alpha–Theta transitions.

⟢ Hypnagogic State (as you fall asleep).

⟢ Stage 1 (N1) and Stage 2 (N2) sleep.

⟢ REM sleep (especially through lucid dreaming).

⟢ Hypnopompic State: Immediately after waking, when you can slip back inward before full alertness returns.

Void State / Deep Meditation

⟢ Hypnagogic State (before sleep): As you drift from wakefulness (Alpha) into light sleep (Theta), the mind stays aware while the body relaxes. This transition is one of the easiest ways to enter the void; awareness expands into still, black emptiness.

⟢ Stage 1 (N1): The lightest sleep stage with Theta waves. If you remain conscious as your body falls asleep, you can slip directly into the void instead of losing awareness.

⟢ Stage 2 (N2): With deeper Theta activity and minimal movement, this stage can stabilize awareness in darkness and silence if consciousness is maintained.

⟢ REM Sleep (Lucid Dreaming): During vivid dreams, the conscious mind can dissolve the dream scene, leaving only awareness — a direct, vivid entry into the void.

⟢ Hypnopompic State (right after waking): As the brain shifts from Theta to Alpha, staying completely still can draw you back inward into the same still, empty awareness.

Sleep Paralysis

⟢ Between REM sleep and wakefulness (Hypnopompic transition).

⟢ Occasionally during the hypnagogic transition before sleep.

I had a dream that I could bring clothes I didn't wear anymore to this event and they would upcycle them into new outfits and return it to you but I had too much spider-man themed clothes and didn't want them ruined 😭 Thank you for that Father Morpheus lmao

[magickmarie]

How do I align with the timeline of people who manifest super powers because this shit boring

[nixscriptum]

[magickmarie]

Anyone else not scripting out their mental/emotional issues/trauma from this reality in their DR?

Like, yes, I don't like feeling this way constantly.

But, at this point, it's all I know. The idea of being something else, of being at peace or feeling normal in the way I've tried to mimic for all my life, is terrifying. I can't believe in my pain and my struggling just...not existing, just like that—even if I know it's possible.

I also think it's knowing that I want the satisfaction of healing and getting better. I want the satisfaction of feeling everything that I've not known how to handle or address without lashing out or shutting down. I want everything that comes with the realization that there are people out there that will love me through my pain and struggling. Because the heart and mind I have now exists in an environment that either hurts me or doesn't know how to give me what I need, and healing in my DR will be wrought with more soft and sincere love than I've ever been used to.

That's my sentimental piece of the night 🫡

Father Morpheus saw me stressed about going 10 hours with my toddlers to 3 hours of class and decided to bless certain children with extremely rare good naps ☹️ I'm so happy

[shaysplanet]

— some shifting askfirmmations that nobody asked for

“why is it so easy for me to shift tonight?”

“why does my mind know exactly how to drift into my DR?”

“why do I always wake up where I intend to?”

“why am I such a natural at shifting?”

“why does my subconscious always align with my desires?”

“why do I trust myself so easily when it comes to shifting?”

“why is shifting such a normal part of my life?”

“why do I shift whenever I decide to?”

“why is it effortless for me to shift over and over again?”

goodnight everyone, and go shift!!!

I wonder how many people have manifested a better society/world in some significant way and we have no clue because their perception of reality is no longer aligned with ours (aka societal circumstances actually mean nothing if we decide they don't exist altogether)

[easyboyrecliner]

get of my page if you support trump and israhell. I don’t condone neither !!! same thing with racism, bigotry, homophobia etc. Gtfo!!!

[magickmarie]

Can't wait for my desired reality and the infinite library I scripted that creates books tailored to exactly what I want
