it was always this simple ₊˚⊹ᰔ
i’m not sure if this will help any of you, but i wanted to share the very first time i shifted. based on the asks i’ve been getting, i think some of you need a little motivation right now. i’ll get to the asks, i promise. this is just a small story i felt called to share.
i also want this to be a moment of appreciation. a reminder to be grateful. i know how easy it is to get so consumed by the desire to shift that it starts to feel like a chore. like a task you keep repeating with no results. the joy disappears. the fun fades. and we forget how lucky we are to even know about shifting in the first place. how accessible it is. how, unlike most things in life, everyone has an equal chance to experience it.
the day i first shifted was completely ordinary. nothing special about it at all. it was an accident and i wasn’t even trying to shift, it wasn’t even on my mind. it happened right after a nap.
i wasn’t affirming. i wasn’t doing a method. i wasn’t even visualising my dr. i was just replaying a really vivid dream in my head, the way i always daydream. it wasn’t some intense five senses thing either. and the dream had nothing to do with my dr.
then suddenly, for a split second, i shifted into that dream scenario.
i felt a pulling sensation. my surroundings changed. the atmosphere felt different. the surface i was lying on felt different. the sounds around me were different. before i could even open my eyes, i shifted back.
that moment changed everything for me.
it proved to me that shifting was real. solid. undeniable.
i consider myself incredibly lucky to have experienced that so early on. without it, i probably would've already given up on it, spending a life time wondering if it was ever real. because of that moment, i knew it was just as real as the ground i walk on.
and i know a lot of you want that one small moment of confirmation. something to quiet the doubts. something to ease the anxiety. you deserve that. truly.
but i also want to be honest with you. even after that experience, i still doubted. i still struggled. i still wavered. and i only shifted years later.
so i don’t want you to feel like you need some kind of confirmation in order to shift. because even though i had it, it wasn’t enough on its own. what held me back wasn’t a lack of proof. it was my own belief. my understanding. my trust in myself.
no matter how much proof you have or don’t have, it doesn’t matter. what matters is you.
so if you doubt yourself, i hope this helps you see that shifting has always been an innate part of you. of all of us. i am not special. i am not different from you. this happened when i least expected it, because it really is that simple.
shifting is not a task that requires constant effort. it does not require nonstop affirmations, shadow work, heavy scripting, or forcing positivity. none of that is necessary.
don’t forget how simple shifting actually is. i don’t like calling it easy, because the hardest part is letting go of the belief that it’s hard. give yourself permission to believe that shifting has always been yours. something you were always able to do. it’s always been here. you just forgot.
you create your universe.
you are the operant power behind it all.
