So I have only seen this method used once on a guided shifting meditation video and I haven't seen it posted anywhere else, so I'm going to put it into text for more people to see.
The method details are below the cut:
I have seen this method used before as a means to permashift, in the sense that you are attempting to lock yourself into your DR so that you can stay there for days on end, or forever even, but still be slightly tethered to your CR, with the option to return to your CR if you choose. This method may be a little too advanced for beginners, especially if you are attempting to shift to an extremely different DR from your CR.
I recommend listening to some type of noise to help clear your mind and to block out any interruption from the world. I personally listen to pink or white noise, but use whatever relaxes you and clears your mind the best.
Lay down in bed and meditate for a few minutes. Clear your mind of anything and everything. Start visualizing your body from your POV in any way that feels most natural to you; whether that means you see your full body below you as a glowing light, a kind of wispy collection of atoms, or if you see your full body exactly how it looks in your CR. It isn't entirely important about what you visualize, as this is just to represent your consciousness. You may not even visualize yourself, instead choosing to interpret the static in your head as the void you are a part of.
Take a few minutes to get used to where you are. If you have a body, walk around and look at your hands. If you are a trail of light and atoms, then float around, see if there is anything to explore. If you don't have any representation of your consciousness, then simply allow the static to move around you, forming shapes. The void is mostly black, but moving through it sparks the chance to see flashing lights and blob figures, symptoms of shifting. Allow your physical body to feel like it's floating or sinking; this feeling is different for everyone, you may even just start to feel numb.
While in this state, start thinking about your DR. Who are you, what is your name, what do you look like, do you have any family, friends, or a significant other? Are there any important dates that will be taking place when you wake up in the morning? What is your DR self doing right now in bed? Are you nervous because you start a new job tomorrow, or it's the first day of school? Is tomorrow your birthday? Get yourself into the mindset of your DR self.
While you are thinking about the details of your DR, begin to visualize something in the distance. Something far away that you have to go towards. Keep thinking about your DR while also making affirmations; I am shifting. I am (DR self name). I am (DR self age). I am shifting.
When you start to get close, you notice it is a door. The door embodies your DR. There is a hook in the middle of the door that holds a key. As you grab the key off the hook, keep saying your affirmations. Unlock the door and go through it. Once you are through the door, change your affirmation to the past tense “I have shifted.” Lock the door and put the key on the hook on this side of the door.
Continue on your journey, thinking about who you are, what you are doing, facts about you. Recite everything you know about your DR that your DR self would know; what did you have for dinner last night, what are you looking forward to tomorrow, are you nervous, excited, or scared? After a while you may feel the need to lay down, you have traveled a long distance and you are starting to feel sleepy. As you lay down, start to bring your consciousness into your DR. feel the bed you are in and smell the air. Without opening your eyes, start to remember the layout of your room from where you are lying. Where is the door, are there any windows, what other furniture is in the room?
Continue these thoughts until you fully drift to sleep. Make yourself believe you are in your DR bed. Where else would you be? You know exactly where you are and exactly who you are. If you hear something, what was that? Maybe a sibling in your house or an animal outside. Make everything connect and make sense for your DR. Make yourself believe it until it becomes true. If you fully expect to wake up in your DR, then your consciousness will believe it too.
Anxiety culture is leaving the house really really quickly and then forgetting whether or not that you locked the door on the way out. Every time I do this, I worry all. Day. Longggg. It seems like such a small thing but man does anxiety attack it.

Does anyone else get the feeling that when they lock their doors at night, that the criminal is already in the house, hiding, and they are just locking themselves in there with them? Or is that just me?
Having OCD and being a Stage Manager has its perks because you will always know you closed and locked every door. Because you will check it 4,5,6,7 or 8 times.
