I’m a baby shifter and I just started attempting to shift. Is it normal to get a really fast heartbeat, because I don’t want to accidentally have a panic attack while trying to shift.

Hello baby shifter!!

So I have found throughout my attempts that for me yes it is normal to have a fast heartbeat. On top of that, I sometimes feel my body start to like burn up. Like it gets super hot mid method for some reason.

I haven’t done too much research but I know that sometimes while you meditate/sleep your body is fully relaxed and your breathing slows and your heart sometimes is like “wait wtf are you alive??” And will pick up the pace just to make sure you’re not dying. (If that makes sense?)

So I think it’s totally normal to experience that, if you ever have panic attacks (like me) it can be scary to feel that while shifting cause you don’t want to suddenly wake up in a full panic. Just remember to calmly tell your body/heart “it’s okay. I am safe.” And sometimes that helps me calm down! Just saying affirmations can remind my body I’m fine.

Hope this was helpful! Let me know if you have any more questions!!! Happy shifting!

i haven't been actively attempting to shift, like i haven't given up bc i KNOW i can and will when i try, but is "loss of interest" a symptom? i've also been having SUPER weird dreams about my DR characters despite not having completed the script for it, but that could just be because i've been watching the movies:/

Hello shifting anon!!

First, for the dreams, I take that as a good sign! Whether it’s from watching the movies of your DR or whatever, it’s still good to know you’re thinking of your DR even while asleep!!

Second, I think it’s totally normal to have a loss of interest or to almost feel “burnt out” from shifting. If you do it too much, too fast your body can’t really “handle” it. Shifting takes mental (and physical??) energy. So if you aren’t feel 100% then take a break and just relax. Shifting will always be available, it’s not going anywhere!!

As a side note: when you do take shifting breaks you can/should still do these things:

Drink your water!!!

Work on your script

Practice meditation

Say affirmations throughout the day

Listen to subliminals anytime you can!!!

So taking a break doesn’t mean totally stopping and forgetting about shifting. It’s just giving your brain/body the time to recoup! And when you get back to practicing you’ll shift no problem ☺️

Hope this helps!!

Hi so my best friend just got into shifting and I'm a little confused and concerned, but I want to be supportive if this is something that will make her happy. Do you have any advice or would you mind explaining what shifting is a little bit? If not that's totally fine, pls don't feel pressured to answer. Have a great night :)

Hi!! I don’t speak for the entire shiftblr community but I’ll try my best to explain! ((Shiftblr community if I get anything wrong PLEASE REBLOG AND CORRECT))

First: no need to be concerned for shifting is 100% safe and nothing bad is going to happen!

Shifting, or Reality Shifting for its full name, is when you literally leave this reality and shift to another! Kind of like going to another universe? So it’s a whole other reality/world that whatever you want can happen! This “new” reality is typically called the Desired Reality.

I understand that’s a HUGE concept to wrap your head around so in simpler terms: you go to an ice cream shop and you don’t know if you want vanilla or chocolate. Of course you have to make a decision so let’s say you pick chocolate. In that moment, there was another reality created in which you picked vanilla! This continues for every choice you make in life, big or small! (Did you get sprinkles as well? Did you get a cone or a cup?)

As for how you shift there are A LOT of methods on how you can! Some people meditate before sleep and focus on shifting and then wake up in their DR (desired reality.) Some people do awake methods, and some people do both! I’m not gonna fully go into ALL the ways and details, but in short it’s meditating and relaxing and letting your body’s “soul” shift from this reality to your DR.

Secondly about her happiness, in my personal experience and my shifting journey, shifting has improved my mental health 100% The main focus of the shifting community it positivity and raising your bodies energy/vibrations. To do that the community encourages eating healthier, drinking water and staying hydrated, general self care, and also just saying positive affirmations to yourself! So there’s really no downside to her practicing shifting! If anything, it will improve her mental health and physical health!

Lastly, for being supportive, even if you don’t truly understand or believe it, just think of shifting as a “type of religion” Be respectful and don’t bash her for it. Listen to her if she needs to talk out something and just be a safe place for her! Shifting can get shit on a lot and there’s a lot of bullies on the internet so just be kind :)

Sorry this was long but it’s hard to explain everything!!! Let me know if you have any specific questions! ❤️

okay hey so i’ve been trying to shift for a bit now but i haven’t yet i’ve also started taking melatonin so i’ve been sleeping almost right away i usually read over my script, meditate and then get ready to shift- ie plugging in my phone and pulling up my subliminals. but before i could even start my method, boom, i’m asleep. it’s so frustrating bc i want to do a sleeping method @ night (bc its quiet, no disturbance, etc) but i literally haven’t even had a chance to!

Mmmmm I totally get where your coming from. I also prefer sleeping methods and night time is the best for no disturbances! Have you tried one night not taking melatonin? Maybe if you take a long time to actually fall asleep you can use that time to meditate or do a method? And by the time you finish (for me meditating and methods can sometimes take up to an hour) you’ll drift to sleep naturally?

Or if you absolutely need melatonin to sleep, take half a tablet instead of a full one! Could decrease the effects enough so you can stay awake long enough to finish!

Just some ideas! You’re not the only one who struggles with falling asleep I’m method so don’t worry! Keep trying and let me know if you take any of my advice!

Happy shifting!
