A Skeptic's Research

So... This is just in general but. I've gotten the habit of listening to @adambja 's I am in control tape and well. I've started getting results in my journey into getting into the void state. I would often just lay down with my echo above my head (mostly it's cause I have my work table at the bottom of my bed so I could do that haha) and then listen to the tape repeat the affirmations over and over and over again and I would join in with it while also affirming sometimes "I am entering the void state right now." And well.

ACTUALLY had a false awakening after I did an immediate reality check the moment I "woke up" and tried counting my fingers but guess what. My hand was flickering invisible and the on and then off and I was like HEY WHAT. And then I actually woke up after that.

Went back for another try and immediately got those symptoms of like spinning body and etc. and floating off the body but I could still hear the affirmations so I was like hm. But that's definitely still some progress

More vivid dreams that I was even more partially aware of being in a dream

Some more slight out of body experience

But basically, the tape has been REALLY helpful.

Night 2 11/15/2023

Actively Listened to @adambja 's tape: 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Definitely starting to get a lot more vivid dreams while listening to the tape in my sleep. I'm also not that desperate to enter the void anymore. Just this sense of calm that it will definitely come my way.

Night 1 11/15/2023

Listened to @adambja 's "I am in Control" tape a few times before sleeping and then left it playing the entire night. Had a pretty vivid dream and while I did not enter the void state, I had a thought to shift somewhere for the heck of it and thought of Harry Potter cause why not and began feeling this sensation of vertigo as well as of my body curling up when it did not as if it was trying to move somewhere.

So there's that I suppose. There was definitely less "but what if it doesn't work etc.etc." overthinking of sorts when trying this so a sense of confidence is beginning to build in my psyche which was fascinating.

Trying to enter the void via lucid dream. It finally worked but not in the way I anticipated. I felt myself rising up in pitch darkness as if I was astral projecting and I suddenly thought to do the reality check of pinching my nose and breathing in despite the closed entry.

It worked.

It was as if I suddenly gained an awareness. I was dreaming.

Unfortunately, the lucidity only lasted for a very very short 3 seconds or so. I woke up.

But it worked. It absolutely worked.

Holy shit.

Hm. Thinking about that time when I was around high school and one of our subjects where we have a counselor spend some time with class gave us relaxing period and basically just played calming music in the background and encouraged us to listen to the calming music and relax. I know that I reached the void often when we did that. Just completely relaxed and deep in the trance but still being aware enough. But I wasn't feeling the discomfort of laying down on my back on the wooden floor and everything but everything was pitch black and everything faded, even the music.

Something for those who wants to get into the void but is finding it difficult to not pay attention to your body with the breathing stuff. I found that one way for me to easily "drift" is to imagine scenarios or daydream basically and I found myself naturally forgetting my breathing and awareness of my body especially when I get into it.

Think about it.

How many times have you daydreamed and found time passing by so quick without notice? The concept is similar there but most of the times especially when you're comfortable, your mind finds a way to blank out after a bit. I've found myself having so much more symptoms and found it easier to stop being aware of my body doing that rather than doing the counting up and affirming with every breath. So... You could try this out. Maybe shift your daydreams between things you're gonna do once you get everything you manifested from the void and then being in the void itself and then back again.

Hello! I've been trying out shifting for the past... Two years? Around that amount of time. Visualization is... Very difficult for me and trying to draw up feelings is also um difficult to try to connect to the DR which are pretty important in methods.

One thing I have been trying to do as a method to shift is it's sort of like the Julia Method with the counting up to 100, saying affirmations repeatedly, those two steps until I was supposed to feel my surroundings and environment change. But it's... A work in progress.

I want to do an awake method too so if there's anyone who knows of a good awake method that doesn't rely on visualization please do give me some!

In any case, back to the main topic of this post, I wanted to know if repeatedly writing down shifting affirmations would actually work? Would it help my subconscious begin to believe said affirmations if I keep writing down and saying it out loud as I write them over and over and over again?

Thanks for the advice and for reading this far!

By the way, if anyone knows of an active shifting discord for adults and whatnot please dm me a link. I'd really like to talk to more people about shifting.

I know it's been a bit since I've posted here but I think I actually minishifted? There was this part where I felt like my soul was spinning around and for a bit there I could swear that if I opened my eyes, I'd be in my DR. It was weird. Because my goal was to get to like... My DR right? And in my DR we're in UK and if it's cold there, there's also the heaters and stuff and I felt the heaters. It wasn't like scalding, but just enough heat that it was noticeable.

This was... This was the most progress I've ever made in years. I'm actually in disbelief aha.

Btw does anybody here have like a discord server for 18+ shifters? I want people to talk about it with.

Huh. Would you even call this an attempt? I think I tried shifting in my dream or something? Basically, my attempts were just... To turn over and stand. I even did grounding attempts by like trying to do the senses methods. I think I managed to open my eyes fully once? But who knows. It was a really weird feeling.

My dream self did attempt to try to shift to our Waiting room which.... Reprogramming brain worked? Hm. This is... Interesting.

Day I

I've attempted to reality shift and I think I've had some good progress today. It doesn't hurt that I've already tried in the past to do some astral projections so the feelings aren't that strange for me.

I felt this otherbodyness of feeling myself move without 'really' moving if you get what I mean? I made three attempts earlier as I was sleeping with each attempt waking me up.

The first one had me managing to sit up and I tried to do some grounding methods of feeling out my surroundings. It was a slight success? I managed to ground myself a bit further by moving my hands over the surface of my bed and it did work.

Second attempt had me trying to stand up. I was a bit successful but the ground felt like mud and the effort had me 'falling through'.

Third attempt was a bit more successful in the standing up but I couldn't feel anything around me so I lost my grounding and woke back up.

Perhaps me trying to affirm with "I will shift into my waiting room." Was a bit too vague since I have not exactly specified and 'planned out' what sort of place my waiting room is. Perhaps I should do that first? Hm.

Anyway, my first attempt was processed through listening to a subliminal and I sorta fell asleep to that. I was also reaffirming as I fall asleep "I will shift. I have shifted". Second attempt was no subliminal and I slept with my hands over my chest while still reaffirming with the same phrases. Third attempt has me adding the "I will shift into my waiting room." And sleeping in a slight starfish position, not exactly very wide spread but in a more comfortable sort? Definitely should put on a blanket if you are trying that method.

Attempt I Result: Managed to sit up

Attempt II Result: 50% stood up (No Sight, no smell, no touch)

Attempt III Result: Stood Up but snapped back due to no grounding method

Reaffirming Phrases:

I will shift.

I have shifted.

I will shift into my waiting room.

Hello, so I'm new here to the reality shifting thing so greetings to y'all.

Anyway, I'm gonna be frank with you guys, I'm pretty much a skeptic of this entire thing but I'm willing to be open minded and the technicalities of reality shifting does interest me so I'm??? Planning on doing a research when I can.

If you guys are out there, please do direct me to the resources about reality shifting and everything. When I mean resources I want posts about techniques, I want the references that you guys used like what do you mean by when people are talking about how this thing has been proven to have some connections to some beliefs in hinduism, I'm talking books related to the topic with author and title so I can search it up, and all that sort.

I will occasionally post my own research on this blog just so you guys will know if I succeeded or not.

Thanks
