Shoto isn't one to show physical affection, but one day he hugged Izuku and saw how he reacted (he burst into tears).
So now he suddenly hugs everyone just to see their reactions, bc that fulfills him more than the act of hugging.
Tight hugs for Ochako, squeezing her cheeks; hugs that lift Tsuyu off the ground until she’s standing on tiptoes. Iida stands there frozen and blushing. Izuku keeps crying with every hug. Hugs from behind for Bakugo while he growls. Kirishima always hugs him back even tighter, and Sero holds him a little longer, as if he doesn’t want to let him go.
Shoto still doesn’t show much affection, but he definitely loves his friends’ hugs. 💙
Tsuyu kicking her little feet while that big boy hugs her give me a cuteness aggression
okay so persistence is probably the most talked about concept in this community and also the most misunderstood one. because when people hear "you have to persist" they immediately picture this exhausting long term commitment where they have to white knuckle their way through doubt and circumstances and just keep affirming forever until something finally gives.
and that version of persistence is genuinely unsustainable. which is why so many people burn out.
but that's not what persistence actually is.
persistence is not forcing yourself to believe something you don't believe. it's not gritting your teeth through doubt and repeating affirmations like a mantra you're not sold on. that's not persistence, that's resistance. and it feels terrible because you're constantly fighting yourself.
real persistence is just not going back.
it's making a decision about what's true for you and then refusing to let circumstances talk you out of it. not in an aggressive way. just in a quiet, settled, i already know how this ends kind of way.
the people who manifest quickly are not the ones who never have a doubtful thought. they're the ones who have the doubtful thought and just don't feed it. they let it pass through without making it mean anything. and then they come back to what they decided was true.
that's it. that's the whole thing.
because here's what actually happens when you persist properly. your subconscious starts to get familiar with the new assumption. and familiarity is everything to the subconscious. it doesn't respond to intensity or desperation. it responds to what feels normal and consistent and expected.
so the longer you hold an assumption without backing down from it, the more your subconscious starts treating it as just the way things are. and once your subconscious accepts something as just the way things are, the 3D has no choice but to catch up.
that's the mechanism. that's why persistence works.
so stop thinking of it as this heavy ongoing battle. think of it as just a decision you made and keep making every time something tries to pull you back to the old story.
P.S. I will say things like extra curricular subjects, which isn't playing sports after school—that's club activities. This is referring to literal. Extra. Curricular. Like there's literally shit. Added. To your curriculum. Capiche?
The hero course and hero support course actually learn easier material compared to the general studies course!
What, how? You may ask. They're seen doing incredibly difficult things in class in the anime, no?
Well yes and no. Yes, they are canonically all extremely smart and solving difficult questions. But here's the thing: Japanese high school courses are overall split into 2 things. 普通科 or general/normal/standard course and 専門科 or extracurricular course.
And the hero course, by definition, will fall under the extracurricular course rather than the general studies course, because in the extracurricular course you learn very specific subjects/things that general courses don't, and these subjects will directly link to your future job. For example, my high school has a nursing course and a culinary course, and both of these courses have easier general studies (the main 5 subjects) in exchange for the extracurricular subjects they have to do as a part of picking that course. Nursing students have anatomy, etc., among many things (and I don't know what the culinary course does but they cook n' shit).
And UA's hero course, or any hero course, will also fall under this extracurricular course category, as they have special course-exclusive subjects such as, well... heroics. A big part of their curriculum is taken up by learning heroics, the same way as my school's nursing students spend a lot of their week learning medical things (I'm a first grader, so they're currently learning all bone names, etc., and how to vaccinate people and getting vaccines themselves). And same as UA's support course, UA's support course shows that the students there spend a lot of their time learning to build, code, and engineer robot parts to help support heroes in battle, thus adding an extracurricular subject to their curriculum. (By heroics I mean them literally fighting each other.)
In exchange, both the hero course and hero support course will have less material and difficult things to learn for the main subjects (Japanese, science, English, social studies, and math).
Whereas the general studies course is exactly as it says. It's a course to study the general subjects (same subjects listed above), but that is all you learn. And you learn this for things like the university/college entrance exams (yes, those also have entrance exams, kill me). And because they have no course-exclusive subjects, all time and effort goes into those main 5 subjects and will rise extremely quickly in difficulty as time goes on and objectively learn more than the hero course/support course. People in the general studies course (like meeeeee) choose this course typically for 1 reason: to get a recommendation into a university you want to attend. What do recommendations do? Well, similar to high school recommendations, they lessen the subjects you have to take during the test. And unlike high school, they will typically not offer "sports" as a subject unless it's a school that specialises in that (also a thing), but because almost everyone is applying for these, it makes them 100x more competitive and difficult than the high school entrance exams, and the bar is extremely high. Thus, you need to learn the most difficult and extra things because the course is, well... a studying course, whereas an extracurricular course will focus on the special exclusive subjects (depending on the school and course, these can range from easy to I wanna die).
And this is why the hero course is probably learning easier/less things than the general studies course. It doesn't mean that they're dumber or have it any easier, it just means their workload is lessened compared to a course whose sole focus is, well, studying. (This isn't confirmed canon, but tbh, just a quick little check online and I'm pretty confident that it probably is.)
So basically uas hero course is just a more dangerous version of sports courses.
If you're a bit confused on what I mean by high school entrance exams, reference this post and maybe check out this one or this one, which was a rough explanation of what I did for my entrance exams.
Hope this made sense!
Bonus fun fact! A lot of textbooks (literature to my knowledge) are made more for these extracurricular courses!

If shifting is real, why do so many people shift through Lucid Dreaming or through sleep? Doesn’t that indicate it’s just a dream?
Not really. The reason so many people find it easier to shift through a sleep state or through a Lucid Dream is because those states facilitate sensory disconnection from this reality.
When you’re sleeping, your brain literally processes sensory information differently. You don’t hear, feel, see, or touch anything in the waking world the way you normally do.
Your senses are entirely disconnected from this reality, immersed in a different state. This mimics the deep focus state of meditation. And in order to shift, you have to disconnect your consciousness from your senses and log it into another set of data. Because your senses come from your body, but when you shift you inhabit a different body and a different world (a different set of data).
When you’ve been close to shifting you’ve probably had “phantom” sensations or heard “phantom” sounds. These are not hallucinations, although they probably occurred in a state of deep meditation. These are indicators that your consciousness is tapping into another world.
That’s right—that’s my theory; that different realities are not “locally” somewhere else (in a way that would require a literal transition from point a to point b) but that they superimpose each other simultaneously. According to the most accepted interpretation of quantum mechanics, the universe isn’t locally real. And believe it or not, this has actual implications for our practice. The Many-World Interpretation of quantum mechanics parallels my intuitions.
So when you shift you’re not actually “going” somewhere else. Because of non-locality, there is no here or there. It’s just a different set of information, of data, and your consciousness has the capacity to access it. Think of it as different tabs on the same browser; each one has a different set of data showing up, but they’re all equally real and they all appear in the same screen.
Under this interpretation, coupled with phenomenology (the study of first-person experience), dreams themselves might be different realities in their own right. Which means that reality and our experience of it happens on a spectrum.
Makes sense—but Riri, belief systems can be internally coherent yet be completely false, like in cults or religions.
Uh, yeah, I’m aware. The difference why my deductions and knowledge take me here and why those of others take them to deny shifting as a whole is our presuppositions.
Based on the evidence I have—which is both anecdotical and personal—I have chosen to study shifting as a real phenomenon. I am presupposing that all shifting experiences are real. Could I be wrong? Yeah, of course, marginally I could be. So could anyone that denies the phenomenon. What I’m trying to defend here is that belief in shifting isn’t wrong, incoherent or crazy. It might be triggering for some but that’s kinda like a skill issue.
Our presuppositions can always be wrong. That’s literally Descartes, Kant, and the whole of modern epistemology. This is a scientific assumption too. It’s literally what’s at stake. We’re not discussing if these experiences happen—they do. We’re discussing what they mean. I’m assuming they are literal, actual experiences and they mean things about our world that challenge most intuitions. Is it radical? For sure. Definitely, and that’s exactly why I like it. It’s completely challenging. It completely shatters our presuppositions about reality and physics and consciousness. I fucking love that.
In the end, it’s your choice to believe or not. It’s your choice to dare step out of common sense and common knowledge into something that might be valuable to you as a person. History tells us that common sense isn’t really indicative of truth, anyway. Beliefs change according to culture and period of time and to assume that all our current common knowledge forms an unbreakable body of truths is… naive at best, ignorant at worst.
For further reading, these are the books I recommend:
On The Plurality of Worlds, David Lewis (Modal Realism; all possibilities are actual).
Quantum Ontology: A Guide to the Metaphysics of Quantum Mechanics, Peter J. Lewis (Intro to quantum mechanics).
The Conscious Mind, David Chalmers (While Chalmers would certainly not believe in something like shifting, his book lays out reasons why the way we think of consciousness is wrong and why materialism is flawed, proposing instead a dualistic view of reality).
Why Materialism is Boloney, Bernardo Kastrup (Kastrup is an analytical idealist—he believes consciousness is the fundamental field of reality. He breaks down the reasons why materialism is a flawed, self-contradictory philosophy—most antis are materialists but they don’t even know it themselves because… of course, they’re not very well read in my experience).
The Varieties of Religious Experience, William James (it’s about religious mystical experience but it sets up the reasons why we shouldn’t ignore ‘anomalous’ phenomena. Shifting falls under this umbrella).
Students are separated randomly into specific departments and classes sectioned by the letters A-K.
These departments are:
Department of Heroics (A - B): Students in this department learn everything they need to know in order to become excellent heroes in service to the community. They are trained in battle, first aid, rescue, support, and all manners of heroic-related lessons.
Department of General Education C - E): Students who don’t make it to the hero course are included here. This department supports students aiming for college and other pursuits. It’s also possible for students with good grades and exceptional strength and quirk skills to be transferred into the hero course (And either the support or business course mind you). Basically regular HS but they get to say that they went to UA on their resume.
Department of Support (F - H): Students here focus on developing support equipment that helps heroes out on the battlefield. With a workspace stock to the brim with all sorts of special tools and their own studio to build things, this department provides an unmatched creative environment.
Department of General Management (I - K): This department focuses on all aspects of heroic business, from the founding and managing of hero agencies to the promotion of public opinion regarding heroes. They even do hands-on lessons in venture capitalism. They have a lot of free time.
Each class is usually comprised of 21 students. That means that the total student population at UA would be 693.
We stay in the same class with the same teacher for all 3 years.
Since UA is a highly prestigious school, we get a lot of funding and benefits for the dorms and when we go on trips and whatnot. (Food we buy for the dorms is paid for, we get free snacks/concessions in the sports festival, free hero costume updates and renewals)
The school curriculum is way less loaded than here. The school system is much better.
The Hero Teachers are actually good at teaching.
Since U.A. is famous, it has many sponsors with support and hero merch companies, so some hero course students (usually 3rd years) have their own hero merch already. Students are sometimes sponsored and do photoshoots and are invited to red carpet events. (Following the School Festival, Class 1-A gets loads of sponsors and stuff!)
The teachers and students are encouraged to decorate their classes and most of them do so.
U.A. has a popular school website.
Staff and students are recommended to have Twitter to update the public events, the majority of the students obviously don't take this seriously, there's always someone who has beef and makes it public (Monoma) and it always ends up like those MHA Tweets, it’s the funniest thing ever.
Schedule
School is Monday - Friday and starts at 8:25 and finishes at 15:10. Regular classes take place during the first half of school, then the afternoon (for the Dept. of Heroics) you will have hero training. Only Dept. of Heroics students have an additional 7th period.
The teachers move between classes while the students stay in 1 class (besides electives).
Wednesdays are half days and only consist of hero training (so no typical school work), though sometimes it's replaced by FHS. You also don't have to wear your uniform on Wednesdays.
We will always have some kind of free time for school despite our somewhat busy schedules.
Not all school days are the same (emergency drills, other schools coming to train with us, etc.).
Classes
Core Subjects for Dept. of Heroics
Homeroom: Taught by Aizawa. Acts as a study hall. The class reps will often give a small meeting with the class about important events during this period.
Japanese: Taught by Cementoss. Focuses on reading, writing, and literature.
Mathematics: Taught by Ectoplasm. Covers algebra, geometry, and calculus.
English: Taught by Present Mic. Emphasizes reading, writing, and conversation skills.
Home Economics: Taught by Midnight. Cooking and other aspects of household management.
Foundational Hero Studies (FHS): Taught by All Might, Aizawa or Midnight. Hero related studying: hero laws, safety precautions, first aid, jsl, media training, dividing hero and civilian identity etc.
Hero Training: Taught by various teachers, usually Aizawa or All Might, it changes every week and we are informed about the activities during homeroom. For example: Quirkless Combat, Rescue Training, Combat, Quirk Training etc.
Elective Subjects
Thought by various teachers. This is the only class where students move instead of teachers, these are shared, so you could end up with classmates from other classes. Students get to completely choose what electives they have. If they don’t choose, they are placed in extra training or study hall.

Around UA campus
The updated UA security system is really good. The sensors are so good, you don't even need to have your ID out. They can scan it anywhere on your person. If you lost or misplaced your ID, the gates also have facial recognition software, so it's fine. If you're not a student or staff, you NEED a visitor pass or the school will go into lockdown on you.
We can use our school IDs to get snacks and drinks from vending machines around the school hallways. It’s free and they are replenished daily.
UA has a courtyard where we can eat outside. Most of the 2nd and 3rd years get food from places outside of the school campus and eat outside in the courtyard. Because of this, the cafeteria isn't as crowded and when we eat lunch we can sit and enjoy our food comfortably. The cafeteria is also luxurious and looks like a fancy mall café.
The library is huge and has many resources with much to explore. There are many different levels with varying types of quiet floors and study halls. It's also open 24/7 so students who are fighting to finish a project can pull all-nighters.
There’s a little shop that has U.A. and hero merch and school supplies including books for courses. You can also buy the merch on the online website.
UA has extracurricular groups and clubs for those who aren't in the hero course such as other sports and things like cheerleaders, debate, theater, music, cooking, ballet, and much more. I mean, hero course students CAN do those things but they WILL have a hard time doing so all while dealing with said hero responsibilities. As mentioned before, business course students have a lot of free time and general ED students are basically regular HS students who just so happen to be going to UA and for support course students, it really depends on how much work you choose to take on for yourself.
There is a study center where students who need extra help can go. Students with failing grades must go here for a set amount of hours to get the help they need. It’s strictly work, and talking about anything other than school is basically prohibited. It’s usually run by Ectoplasm and his clones or Hound Dog.
Work studies & Internships
All first years do an internship, it’s required. This is usually after the sports festival when students have had a chance to show off their skills.
Work studies are basically experience-oriented off-study programs that allow students in the hero course who have Provisional Licenses to work with pros at their agencies. Students will be able to use their quirks under the guidance of a pro, and can even be dispatched to fight villains and help out in disaster areas. If you do well, you can be scouted to become the hero’s sidekick.
Work studies are a more serious version of internships. They entail helping pro heroes on the streets and with investigations. They are usually reserved for 2nd and 3rd-year students, who usually have their licenses. 1st years didn't do them in the past. However, with the rise of villain activity, the school decided to open up work studies to 1st years as well, albeit a very small and select few of them. If they didn't find a good agency with a proven track record they wouldn't do it at all.
Events
U.A. has seasonal dances and a lot of events, like Halloween, Hero Day and other festivals.

School Bag
Along with the Uniforms the school hands out bags. You can return them and use your own if you’d like.
A standard deep blue nylon matching the uniforms. The U.A. logo sits at the right bottom corner.
Class
If you’re standing at the front of the classroom looking out at the desks, the seating arrangement starts at the leftmost side of the room (“A” names), going front to back and then going to the next row to the right, and so on. keep in mind that the alphabetical order here is based on the Japanese alphabet. My number is 10.
Here's how I laid out the desks for 21 students:
Since we stay in the same classrooms for most of the days we can leave out stuff at our desks. They have shelves underneath with 2 outlets and lots of space.
Class 1-A Friend Groups
Everyone is actually really close, but those are what groups spend the most time together. Of course we hang out in different groups or all together too.
We have frequent movie and game nights, 1-A has a group chat and it’s always active, there’s always someone wanting to do something. Sometimes we invite people from other classes.
This is mostly for me, my lazy ass keeps procrastinating opening the document, so I put this here because I open tumblr so much and the pictures are easier to read this way
This is from mastery of time space transposing by Arlinski, i really recommend it for shifting :)
Please I want you to read this post, mabye it is too long for you, but atleast try it, I think it might be impotant for you specially for those who feel stuck in shifting.
After being in this community for a long time, and going on and off about shifting, being able to experience the contrast of the shifting community through the years, there was something I just noticed (Sorry If I am late) is the fact that shifting is something about the inside, about our consciousness and awareness.
When we first think about shifting, or someone asks us what it is, the primal answer would be: Is moving your consciousness to another reality.
But the thing is that we really don't understand this.
What I mean with that is that we spend so much time focusing on the physical symptoms when we are "Trying to shift" thinking that the physical symptoms are the answer or the measure of how close we are to being in our dr, when this is not the real measure.
I have always been really curious about the process of shifting around 2020. How would the change of realities would feel, can you feel how the realities change with your 5 senses? Is something instant? Or mabye is something of going to sleep and wake up.
After chasing so many times the answer I just conclude that shifting is not a magical world or something extraordinary taken from a fantasy book but instead something that we do EVERY SINGLE DAY.
Shifting is something about the inside, that is something clear.
But sometimes it is even a lot more complicated than we thought because it is something we are not USED to.
But Yuna, what do you mean that is something about the inside?
I want you to imagine an apple, a green apple with a leaf in the steam.
You being able to imagine the apple in your head is the answer.
You can't SMELL the apple.
You can't TOUCH the apple.
You can't TASTE the apple.
You can't HEAR the apple.
And you can't SEE the apple.
Because it is not something physical we have and is not something that you have it in front of your face.
But instead in your head you definitely CAN do all of those 5 things.
I want you to stop for a second and think.
When you imagined the apple, did you felt how all your attention went to the apple inside of your head and FOR MILISECONDS.
You were aware of this reality but also with the apple in your head?
But you didn't need to count to 100, take deep breaths and listen to a subliminal.
No.
All you had to do is to change you attention to the apple. That's it.
Maybe it is hard for you to understand and tbh is completely fine because it took me a while to understand.
But the important thing I want you to understand is that your answer when someone asks what is Reality Shifting and you answer:
Is changing your consciousness to another reality.
I want you to simplify the MAX as possible how we can do that.
Forget about the subliminals, forget about counting to 100, forget about taking deep breaths.
But instead, focus on the MILLISECOND you were able to focus on the apple while you were in this reality, but at the same time you weren't here.
Hihi!! I'm kinda new to the shifting community however I have shifted before. It was sort of a minishift since I almost immediatly went back to my cr after I realized and took like the longest break afterwards but now i'm back!!
I did almost get there yesterday and i've been affirming, manifesting, etc for nearly a week straight now. Today more than ever since I had more time(just got outta school 4 the summer) I really wanna shift before I go back to school but everytime I maifest or get close I just can't seem to get there. I open my eyes and always wake up in my room or I fall asleep and just forget.
Do you have any tips on how to push past that blockage?? because it's starting to get frustrating.
HI BABES!
So I have been thinking about your issue for a while and tbh I think I might know why.
When I have been reading about your experience something that I noticed it was the fact that you SHIFTED OMG! GURL CONGRATS! (I don't care if you came back, what matters is that YOU S-H-I-F-T-E-D)
But also... Maaaybee there is a tiny issue.
You see I think you have been focusing a lot about the process of shifting and not really enjoying it yk?
Something we have to have clear when we start again with shifting is that this process is not only about, "OMG I AM GOING TO MEET MY FRIENDS IN MY DR" OR "OMG I AM GOING TO MEET MY S/O!" But also a self reflection and knowing what works for us and what doesn't.
I want you to change your mentality of shifting into something more easy, you get me?
This is an advice I will tell most of the people who asks me questions.
Shifting is something about the inside and not the outside.
I LOVE that you have been doing affirmations, manifesting and persisting.
But what about the inside?
What I mean with the inside is the part of consciousness and awareness, when we are doing all this process of manifesting, affirmations, subliminals, etc... Is to be ABLE to help our consciousness focus to the reality we want to go to.
Like they are tools yk? To help focus our consciousness where we want to bring it.
(I think I have a post talking about this that it might help you, so don't be afraid to read it!) (Edit: No I don't I still havent posted cuz im lazy as FUCK)
And to be fair I TOTALLY understand how you feel rn, before I was able to shift I was used to say: January will be the month I will shift! And what happened after January finished? Yeah total breakdown, crying, frustrated and unmotivated.
I really don't know the reason why you want to shift this summer and before school, but if you are so hurried of going to your dr I will assure you that when summer finishes, you uh, won't be very happy, especially weeks before starting school, you will be so stressed. AND BABES I DON'T WANT YOU TO STRESS INTO SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
So let's change our focus into something different!
I will ask you (Or maybe you can decide not to) to change your perspective of shifting into something that is a lot more easier yk? No deadline, no time limit nothing, not like shifting is the answer to the universe nothing.
I will ask you to stop thinking like shifting is something of a ride or die.
Something YOU have to do YES or YES before summer.
I don't know your situation.
I don't know your knowledge in shifting.
BUT my recommendation would be for you to take it easier, like something more of going to sleep and wake up there, where you trust yourself that you will go there no matter what happens.
Because babes, I will tell you a little secret.
The moment you let go, or stop putting expectations into shifting.
You will notice that it is a lot easier than you think!
And I know it's difficult because shifting is something so wonderful and amazing that we think that it is a ride or die situation and something that is hard for us to understand because it is not something we are used to.
I am going to grab your hand while I say this. (You can either decide to not do it so dont worry about it)
I would ask you to take that deadline of shifting this summer and enjoy this process.
Just notice how wonderful the experiences of shifting are bringing to your life!
Did you start sleeping better after a shifting attempt? Have you heard things about your dr? Do you feel how connected you are with your DR?
Small things, small things that make you happy about shifting and stick to them.
Don't be frustrated by a failed attempt, take it more like a valuable lesson where you are happy about this experience!
And hey, if you ever feel unmotivated. Remember that you ALREADY SHIFTED!!
So shifting is something you already mastered looong time ago, okay ;D
(I'm not sure if I explained myself very well, in any case you have doubts just send another question and I will try to answer as quickly as possible!)
Hiii! So when I clicked on your page I saw that people are free to ask you about shifting, and I really need help! I‘m trying to shift for three months, but I‘m affirming for a week now that I‘ll wake up in my dr, and I really do believe it when I say it! I feel closer and more connected than ever, but despite that, I KEEP waking up here, and yeah I do affirm that it‘s not true, that I am in my dr but my 3 D won‘t change no matter what. And I just don’t understand, because I did worked on my mindset, I‘ve let go of fear or doubt, etc. Everything. Do you have an idea why? Sorry if this has gotten a bit long!
OH NO BABES IS FINE! Tbh I love long questions, it makes me so happy knowing people put effort into writing a lot T-T
Hmm... to be honest, you were literally me 3-2 months ago lol.
So my biggest tip would be keep persisting, if you feel that you are closer and closer, good news!
I would say that you worry too much about the time, you see, is completely fine if you worry about wanting to arrive at your dr as fast as possible and that's completely fine, because we all want to be in our drs and do what we want, be with our s/o's and enjoy being with our friends.
If you haven't tried add with your affirmations: "Shifting is inevitable" or "I will shift no matter what"
With this we erase the time of when we are going to shift so you could shift even when you are 71% sure that you are going to shift or 22%, because we are sure that no matter what we do we will end up shifting. If we say shifting is inevitable or I will shift no matter what, we know that there isn't a final line we have to arrive or time limit, is not like. "Oh no I have to shift in less than 6 months" because we will feel rushed to be there.
I would say be patient, like we aren't in a race, we just have to enjoy this process! And ik it sounds like, oh so I have to keep waiting to shift... NO! Because with this affirmation we know that we are sure we are going to shift, we just don't know when, it could tomorrow, or in 4 minutes or mabye next week, we dont know. But we are sure we are going to shift
Also you could think, instead of trying to affirm that you are in your Dr the next morning it could be, I shifted! The only thing was that I was sleeping in my DR and I wasn't awake, cuz gurl, did you know that you were sleeping in your Dr? Or you were sleeping in your Cr? We don't know, OH GURL YOU SHIFTED WHILE SLEEPING MONTHS AGO IS JUST YOU WEREN'T AWARE! CONGRATS!
I am so happy for you that you shifted!
No gurl I am being serious, I shifted a bunch of times in my dr while being asleep so when I woke up I was like "5 more minutes" and I didn't notice that I actualy shifted. FUCK.
So be confident that you might already shifted but just not aware of that!
Anyway, thank you so much for asking!! You are so sweet and I love how you talk, omg I just want to give you a big hug AHHHHHH.
Just keep persisting because you will shift!! And be firm about your affirmations even if you think you won't, you and I believe you are going to shift!
How to deal with procrastination in the context of shifting?I want to shift during the day, but before bed I always think: okay, I'll do it later, tomorrow.
You procrastinate because u think shifting is something u have to prepare, put effort and lots of time and lots of mental power... Ur brain says "ugh can we just sleep? I dont wanna go through all that work" and u say hell yeah.
First stop seeing it as something you have to put effort in, you don't. Idk if you have experiences to stuff similar to shifting but if you lucid dream or dream at all, you know you just lay down on your back and fall asleep with the intention of it?
You don't do anything extra or the most you do is counting or visualizing. My number one advice is ;
Make a boring Dr. It can be any empty room that has snacks, games, pets whatever you want. It should be very boring and low cortisol. Attempt to shift there, you won't get too excited or put too much effort.
Once you start to shift causally, it'll be no big deal to do it over and over again later.
