My Neurospicy Spirit

shifting and manifestation content that is neurodivergent friendly

[myneurospicyspirit]

Introduction and Masterlist

Hello! Welcome to myneurospicyspirit  (previously illbeshifting)

I noticed that an abundance of shifting and manifestation content doesn’t take into account people who are disabled, neurodivergent, etc. I want to change that.

Feel free to send in asks, request help on certain topics, tag me in posts that you want opinions on, or anything along those lines!

Blog rules:

Be patient with me please. I’m a neurodivergent human and sometimes I need more time to do things than others.

Ableism (shifting to a dr where you don't have cr disabilities is okay. Saying you can manifest disabilities away is not.), homophobia, transphobia, racism (including race changing), ect. will not be tolerated.

Be respectful of one another.

Rules for Minors (under age 18): you may interact with blog and ask questions, but do not message me directly. I don’t expect to have 18+ content; if I do it will have a warning not to interact with the content. You are responsible for your own media consumption.

Some things about me:

I’m 23 years old.

I’m autistic and physically disabled.

I started spiritual practice and study 8 years ago, but didn’t learn about shifting until late 2022. This is also when I learned about “New Age” explanations of philosophies about things like manifestation, laws, etc. (I’m not going to lie - I’m pretty old-fashioned and dislike a lot of the newer teachings.)

My only solid piece of advice: take what resonates and leave what doesn’t. The best practices and understandings are the ones that feel right for you!

Thanks for being here!

I ask myself sometimes, if I can shift anywhere, why do I stay? Especially when it's bad?

And the answer is the same every time.

Because I was made to stand. I was made to fight. I was made to help shift this entire reality higher. Because I will not just survive this, but I will come out the other side and thrive.

I can't leave. I have work to do.

My 2025 resolution is for LOA and manifestation communities to discard the phrase “your thoughts become reality” because thats NOT. TRUE. This is an incredibly simplistic way to view the mind.

(Cue opinionated think-piece from a paranoid OCD haver about the mistaking of thoughts, beliefs and feelings)

Not only is saying this phrase incorrect but youre only making people more afraid of their intrusive thoughts and completely ignoring neurodivergence and subconscious vs conscious.

It’s not just random thoughts, and thoughts don’t come from a vaccuum. Thoughts are generated via external stimuli and impacted by your subconscious beliefs. (e.g. I think about how much a car costs. I feel sad because i’m broke and believe I’ll never get the money, so I don’t try.)

Thoughts =/= beliefs. Belief is faith, values and principles.

You can have thoughts completely contradictory to your values and beliefs. Which means theyre not you and won’t be mirrored.

Your brain is like a strainer, filtering the outside world and processing it, generating deeper beliefs about the world, sinking further and further into the subconscious (4D). These core beliefs are egosyntonic.

Conflicts like OCD, Anxiety, Paranoia etc. will try to attack your beliefs and lie to you, they play on your deep seeded fears and make you doubt yourself, and give you thoughts that do not align with your values (egodystonic) that are conscious (3D), this happens due to a damaged immune system. It’s so afraid of any possible dangers that it has you believe you need to do compulsions, isolate, seek reassurance etc. to fix it instead of therapy methods.

Unwanted and intrusive thoughts will make you feel like at your core, that you believe horrible things are true about yourself and the physical world around you.

Feelings =/= Thoughts =/= Beliefs.

This is why the concept of manifestation can seem very scary for someone with OCD, paranoia etc. because subconsciously you don’t want something to happen so much that your brain builds very flawed methods to cope as stated above.

Truly the only thing intrusive thoughts and anxiety “manifest” is self sabotaging behaviour, lies and compulsions due to the attack on core values. This is why letting an intrusive thought go and recognising that you are not your thoughts (AKA more than just the 3D) is an important step when dealing with anxiety and OCD.

Beliefs, values and faith since the dawn of humanity have been catalysts for success. Look up the parable about the mustard seed if you want a glimpse.

Once again, feelings =/= thoughts =/= beliefs. Our brain can be very contradictory and stupid sometimes, and it requires a retraining of the brain to no longer exploit your deeper subconscious values, fears, memories etc.

4D is time, just in case anyone needs a reminder

[fairyminnie444]

your subconscious is simpler than you think it is

✩₊˚.⋆☾╶⃝⃤☽⋆⁺₊✧

The subconscious is the key to any manifestation. It is responsible for materializing in the physical world what you feed through thoughts, emotions and beliefs. Here is the role of the subconscious in manifestation:

1. It is the Executor of What You Believe

• The subconscious accepts everything you feel as true, whether positive or negative, without question.

• It does not judge; it only works to align your external reality with what is imprinted in it.

2. It Reflects Your Internal State in 3D

• Your external reality is a direct reflection of what is stored in your subconscious.

• What you see in 3D today is the result of the ideas and beliefs that the subconscious has already accepted as truth.

3. It Responds to Mental Imagery and Emotion

• It responds best to clear images and intense feelings, such as those generated in visualizations or SATS (Sleep-Akin State). • When you imagine something with emotion, the subconscious registers it as real and works to manifest it in the physical.

4. It is Programmed by Repetition

• Repeated affirmations, visualizations and feelings record new patterns in the subconscious.

• The more you repeat something, the stronger that belief becomes within you, replacing old programming.

5. It Doesn't Know the Difference Between Real and Imagined

• It accepts everything you imagine with emotion as being real.

That's why feeling that something is already yours is so powerful for manifesting.

How to Use the Subconscious in Manifestation

• Affirmations: Reinforce beliefs aligned with your desire.

• Visualization: Imagine your desire as already fulfilled with details and emotion.

• Persistence: Even if the 3D shows otherwise, stay firm in what you want.

The subconscious is like fertile soil. Whatever you plant in it through your thoughts and feelings, it will grow in your reality. Therefore, taking care of what you feed mentally is essential to manifest your desires!

[myneurospicyspirit]

The key to this is in imagining WITH EMOTION!!!

I had OCD before but loa made it 1000 times worse and I fucking stand by that

Now it's my responsibility to heal

[myneurospicyspirit]

What Does Assume Mean to You?

When you hear the word "Assume," what does it mean to you?

How one approaches the word "assume" and "assumption" can have an effect on their experience with the Law of Assumption.

Oxford Languages has three definitions for the word "Assume."

suppose to be the case, without proof.

take or begin to have (power or responsibility).

take on (a specified quality, appearance, or extent).

And two relevant definitions for "Assumption."

a thing that is accepted as true or as certain to happen, without proof.

the action of taking on power or responsibility.

Which of these definitions do you use when talking about LoA? I want to know.

Thank you so so so so much for making this blog. I have autism, ADHD, and OCD; and while I shifted after a few weeks of trying, once I got involved in the online shifting community I lost motivation and didn't even come close to shifting for like 6 months. A lot of the stuff like about consciousness and manifesting was really confusing to my brain and I felt like I was doing it wrong. And some of the manifesting stuff that was like "everything you think will come true" kind of scared me so your explanation really put my mind at ease. I got really motivated for the first time in months and I got into the void state and shifted to my DR (ok maybe it was for like 3 seconds but still!!) Anyway thank you you are very appreciated :D

Thank you so much for being here! I've noticed that manifestation can be particularly difficult with OCD (being recently diagnosed myself). I'm glad my explanation helped you and I appreciate your kind words!

THE 4D DIARY

What is it?

It’s a journal to rolplay as if your manifestations have already been fulfilled, and write about them like a diary.

Manifestation is supposed to be instant HOWEVER,

many of us have a very difficult situation with our self concept. The objective of the book it’s to help us with the self concept and normalice the desires that we are manifesting in our life.

How does it work?

It’s a small notebook book, (at least once a week) write on it as if your manifestation was already there:

- Describe yourself, not only physically but mentally. Describe your ideal body, thoughts, clothes…

- Describe specific scenarios. Receiving your A+ grades, working at that exciting job, talking with those cool new people…

- Describe how it FEELS to be around your SP. Describe their smell, the way they look at you, the way they treat you…

What’s the purpose?

- HELPING YOU VISUALISE: Imagine yourself as if you were already there will help you change your mindset and habituate yourself of FEELING this way.

- HELP WITH SELF CONCEPT: Every time you doubt about yourself, read the diary, this will remind you that you are ALREADY LIVING YOUR 4D

- HELP TO STOP GLORYING OUR DESIRES: We usually unconsciously glorify our desires making them look as if they where imposible, the objective it’s mainly training our brain to go through this experiences so we stop glorifying them and they actually start showing up in our 3D reality

Recommendations

- Write after a visualisation meditation

- Be “realistic” (What I mean by this is that you should describe your experiences with your own words and personality, you can be truly free with your use of words, don’t try to sound elegant or out of your personality, this has to look like a page of your ACTUAL diary)

- DONT PUT AFFIRMATIONS HERE: This journal it’s not with the main objective of manifest BUT to help you get into the MIND STATE as if you have ALREADY manifested what you want. By adding a list of affirmations you will loose that special personal touch, it won’t look like a diary to talk about your experiences but more like a manifestation journal, for me personally it makes it feel more forced and less personal.

THATS ALL!!

Im the OG CREATOR of this idea so if you actually do it, post it in the hashtag #4Ddiary and tag me in your post!!

bye bye byyyye <3

I'm wanting to start shifting again and I think I'm finally ready.

[shifting-with-the-waves]

Am I the only person who has trouble affirming? Like my neurodivergent ass can only take a few “I am in my desired reality” affirmations before I completely lose focus

[lovebvni]

as someone who is also nd, i would suggest saying about 10 before taking a break. or do it during downtime in a video game (like i do it in the sims or stardew valley) and it helps me know im doing something productive and also giving myself a mental break, yk?

another thing that may help is just saying 10 every hour or so with an alarm (that doesn’t work for me though bc i always cancel or mute my alarms)

[myneurospicyspirit]

For me, affirmations go one of two ways

1. I find one that feels really good and repeating it (in my head) becomes a stim. This is usually very soothing.

2. They feel forced and boring and I loose all interest very fast. In this case, I don't even try to force myself to do the affirmations because they aren't doing anything for me anyway.

[pearlescentclouds]

i'm not exactly fit to make a whole essay right now, but i have an idea of a theory of shifting, one that is less about the multiverse or LOA and more about the concept of:

Desired Reality Dream Reality

The core ideas are:

Shifting is basically a meditative/hypnotized state where you are in a waking dream, experiencing scenarios as if they are really happening, that you can script out beforehand

This is something used by therapists as a way of confronting and addressing fears and worries, as well as processing scenarios in a safe environment

This theory doesn't contradict any belief, even the multiverse belief, but asserts that what you are experiencing in your mind is just in your mind

BUT! That doesn't mean it's not real to you. It just means that you can control how real you want it to be.

This can also be used in tandem with other theories, i.e. this waking dream creating a tethered connection to another universe, or that the people you meet are spirits you communicate with

It is easier to comprehend when you have trouble with psychosis, MaDD, dissociation and the like, because it is based on a method used in a scientific field and the theory asserts that you are allowed and encouraged to acknowledge this reality as the true, waking reality, without discarding the feelings and memories you have in your dream realities

This completely makes all anti shifter points like "so just daydreaming" or "so just dreaming" completely usedless because yes, it is both and neither. Cope.

[myneurospicyspirit]

I despise affirmations

There. I said it.

[stilljuststardust-deactivated20]

It's ok to feel like shit.

You don't need toxic positivity to manifest or to shift

The language in this mostly addresses manifestation but it is applicable to both LOA and shifting.

I have been getting a lot of questions that generally boil down to "it really hurts right now, what do I do"

I think in some ways a lot of people have internalized this belief that they have to feel good and happy and motivated 100% of the time if they want it to work.

Couldn't be more wrong.

So many people respond to genuine questions with "well just don't 🤪". I know that's not how they mean it and I don't blame them one bit but as someone who has been mentally ill I know how it makes you think and I know that's how most people feel when they hear it.

It's ok to feel like shit. No you don't need to feel happy to manifest. You don't have to feel like you just won the lottery every five seconds of your day to manifest winning it.

You are not cursed to never manifest just because you have strong emotional reactions to things.

It's ok to hurt. Take a deep breath and remind yourself that while your feelings are absolutely valid and deserve the space to be felt they are not the authority on your reality.

Our brains naturally want to make sense of what we're feeling but it often leads us to thinking the way we're feeling is evidence of what will happen next.

"I feel awful and I don't like how often I'm feeling it" often leads us into thinking "nothing is ever going to work for me", but it's important to ground ourselves and realize that feeling like shit is not divine undeniable proof that it isn't going to work.

Feeling like shit just means you feel like shit, nothing more.

Sometimes we feel awful so we self sabotage and then say "see I was right", when really we're just a self fulfilling prophecy.

You don't want to be right, you want the comfort of having your emotions validated and seen.

Holding space for yourself to feel things and feel them deeply is important to our spiritual physical and mental health. However, saying that assigning meaning to it isn't good for you.

Keep fucking going. It's ok to affirm even though you feel like shit. Feeling like shit is not "evidence" that it's "not going to work".

Self discipline is knowing to regulate yourself and validate your emotions without affirming the opposite of what you want.

Self discipline is not beating yourself up and restricting yourself heavily. It is checking yourself when needed.

[myneurospicyspirit]

Ask "Why?"

When manifesting (there is a section on shifting below) we focus a lot on the "what," the object, the desire. It's a normal human tendency, and for those of us that feel the need to hold or see our end goals in person, the "what" becomes important.

But sometimes, the "what" is deeper than what we think we are manifesting. That is why we must ask "why."

Why do you want to manifest the "what"? What will the "what" give you?

For example: you want to manifest your desired appearance... but why?

If the answer is "because I want to feel confident in my appearance" then start manifesting being confident in your appearance! If it's "because I want to be physically attractive" then manifest being physically attractive!

Asking "why" will help you get down to what you actually want. The stronger the want, the stronger the desire, the stronger you can make your manifestation.

How does this apply to shifting?

Well... it's called a desired reality for a reason. Why do you desire that reality?

Is it the found family you have there? Your s/o? The experiences there?

Getting to the bottom of why your desired reality is desired, may help boost motivation when you're frustrated, focus during shifting, and make you remember why you started in the first place!

[shiftingconfessions]

-> ->->SOME<- <- <- law of assumption shifters drive me up the wall with the gall they have tbh. im soooo sick of them treating the belief they subscribe too as "universal fact" when they don't even seem understand it. i've had some people on here tell me it was my own fault im disabled/had cancer because i manifested it for myself. i literally don't wanna hear it anymore... if the only way to shift is blaming myself for my trauma (it obviously isn't) then i'd rather stay here

.

[lovebvni]

no fucking way someone said u manifested cancer…

dude the loa community needs to pull itself together.

and all communities need to stop trying to control other people and put them down. it tires me and so many others out that they feel like they want to leave communities bc of the people.

if someone wants to leave a community it should b because it’s not for them anymore, not because they feel excluded

[myneurospicyspirit]

I had to take a break from shifting and manifesting because the loa community ideas made me feel so horrible about myself... like everything in my life that went bad was my fault.

I'm on the path to healing and moving towards things that feel better for me now.
