My biggest fear now is forgetting we can shift. Now that im a shifter, it’s a permanent natural ability for my awareness. We are now a shifter for eternity. Its a natural existence function.
but theres soo much overthinking that comes with this, because shifting is what we always do, and what happens after death is u shift to a different reality out of the infinite. And maybe we shifted here where we could’ve been the majority of people thinking it’s not possible, If we didn’t know, our awareness would be trapped.

whats weird and confusing is not everyone knows that/can know that in this reality, they are programmed to think it’s the only one and most see it as crazy when we could’ve shifted to this reality in the first place but forgot, It’s more than just a practice, it’s how existence functions.

i always knew there wasnt a straight answer to the question of "existence." i pondered about the things nobody else bothered to question. most people accepted what they were given and thought "because it just is." there is no meaning except the one u put in it because u are the creator.

we must’ve shifted to this reality to rediscover. Why did we have to shift to this reality where it’s not seen as possible and rediscover it here
its like remembering something we always were meant to do. it’s not a coincidence, its destiny, maybe you shifted here to remember it/find out about this function in this prison reality.

I've been having this thought lately that this reality may be the lower realms that we have to go through and break out of in order to access the beauty of "real life", as shifters who can experience whatever we want.

We are programmed to accept our given reality as the only one.

All of our programming since birth is designed to make us regard our material reality (the tangible things we see, feel, hear...) as the unquestionable truth.

We are quite arrogant about this, for how little we actually know.

The majority of people have very little understanding of theoretical scientific concepts or branches of study like quantum physics but they say that alternate reality theories are woo-woo.

They'll swear that matter is unchangeable and what you see in front of you is 100% the truth, but when you bring up concepts like the Observer Effect from the Slit Experiment (particles change their behavior when observed by humans) or Heisenbergs Uncertainty Principle (inability to accurately measure both position and momentum of a particle) they don't have an answer and they aren't curious about the implications.

The fact that shifting is ridiculed by the public without an open mind to possibility is just a consequence of this programming. Our societal programming is designed to keep us stuck here. Breaking out is a revolutionary act.

Have you ever tried to tell a "normie" (for lack of a better term) about shifting?

Even the most open-minded people I know think it's a crazy idea even after I've provided resources, links, quantum physics studies indicating alternate realities, old religious texts or Teslas diaries describing shifting, etc.

They don't care. It contradicts their programming and that causes cognitive dissonance.

When I first found out about shifting, I immediately began searching everything I could to learn more. I still make it a point to learn more everyday as I practice. I assumed that would be the natural reaction to learning about something so incredible, but I'm surprised by how many people are just not intrigued at all.

It takes a particular type of person to undertake a shifting journey, and I didn't realize how rare that was.

If you're on your journey right now and you're frustrated, please take a moment to appreciate how rare the opportunity you've been given truly is.

Out of the billions of people who have walked on this earth, you're lucky enough to be alive during a time when you have easy access to all this information to learn about shifting and have your questions answered, you have the natural temperament of open-mindedness to be receptive to the idea, and you have the tenacity and curiosity to teach yourself because there is no structured "shifting school".

That combination of factors is such a rare gift. It is your destiny to shift, if you continue on.

This is a solo journey, akin to the Fool's Journey in tarot.

If you're familiar with the symbolism of the Major Arcana, remember that in the final card, the Fool gains The World.

A spark is ignited with the 2nd card (The Magician, High Priestess), consulting the wisdom of those more experienced (Emperor, Empress) and beginning a study (Heirophant), and through tests, trials, choices, ego deaths, solitude.. you have earned the sun, the moon, the stars, and finally the ability to access the true Worlds.

Now, about this being a prison reality...

I was thinking about this because the worst people are currently in control of our reality. Iykyk about CERN, Project Looking Glass, Kozyrev's Mirror, and all those things.

I believe that the people in power have known about alternate realities for quite some time and do not want the masses to know.

Now, for the controversial, and I hope it's okay to say this here.

Please do not read this sensitive info if you aren't 18+ or are not able to handle mentally stressful topics right now.

I think that this is the lowest starter realm because in this reality..

• Our leaders are war-mongering pedos and if the Epstein files are to be believed, engaging in other darkest acts like cannibalism
• Data centers are demolishing beautiful nature and animals habitats and polluting neighborhoods in order to power surveillance tech like flock cameras that illegally spy on all citizens
• Our governments are bought by techofascists like Peter Thiel, or Curtis Yarvin, who said that the underclass and homeless people should be liquified into biofuel to power city busses so productive members of society can get to work (seriously.. he wrote an essay advocating for that)
• More and more people increasingly can't afford to buy homes, get an education, or have families
• Our food contains so many carcinogenic poisons and increasingly powerful EMF grids (like 5G networks) are set up that interact negatively with our moods and health because as living beings we are beings with proven electromagnetic biofields of our own which is designed to resonate with the earth and not manmade interference (Note: I recommend reading The Body Electric: Electromagnetism and the Foundation of Life by Dr. Robert Becker, or Stalking The Wild Pendulum by Itzhak Bentov, for more info on biofields- the latter is also a great book for shifting info I'm not finished with yet but it's been blowing my mind!)
• Our own governments use data collected from unethical experiments on their own citizens like M.K. Ultra in order to socially engineer the masses into being demoralized and divided
• Racism and sexism causes so much needless violence and pain. Who decided that your gender or the color of your skin was a reason to be so hateful? We are all made of the same matter.
• Many evils exist in this world, bad things happen to good people and innocent human beings and animals

Like.. that's not all, but that's some. How is this not a prison reality?

Some say that the people in control in this reality feed on our negative emotions (loosh theory) which is why the richest people aren't content with enjoying their riches, they keep engineering suffering for everyone else.

I don't know if that's true, who can say for sure? But I do know that things seem to be going in a particular direction that does not resonate with my spirit.

I do think that more people are waking up, especially with timeline glitches increasing such as all the "duplicates" that were trending.

In more people, a spark seems to be igniting: that this world isn't all that it seems.

In an ancient Sanskrit text, the Upanishad, it is said that "The body is a sheath for the soul." and describes five layers of sheaths, which is very similar to how we discuss ourselves in shifting: physical vs. consciousness vs. awareness, etc.

What if this was the attainment all along?

I think that our entire reality is like a test where you have to go through this reality, possibly many incarnations in this reality, until you awaken to the truth.

Shifting is the true freedom of mind: it is a release.

So be thankful you are on this journey.

You will shift.

it is not a coincidence you found this passion.

That is at least how I'm coming to see things philosophically, and I was hoping to have a philosophical discussion here to see if anyone else feels the same.

I know that a lot of people actually love their CR and they're comfortable where they are, especially younger folks. I'm an aspiring permashifter so my opinions may be different, and I'm totally open to hearing from others as well.

Lately my depression has been EXTREMELY bad. Lashing out at others in my personal life, having no energy to do much of anything except lay in bed, not really having any opportunity to leave the house, a deep feeling of despair and hopelessness, lots of ugly crying—the whole nine yards.

But, along with that, I've also been trying to hone and improve my methodologies when it comes to indirect techniques. I seriously stepped away from these shifting communities and broke that "dopamine link," and would only check them very infrequently and briefly.

I think these 4 things are what helped me:

-I ditched the head lift technique, and instead of trying to feel "imagined" sensations of moving, like trying to hear/visualize/"feel" myself rubbing my hands in front of my eyes, I started to ingrain within myself the reflex to "physically" move upon waking.

-In my intention-setting mantra that I repeat after the WBTB setup routine and before going back to sleep, I started specifying that I will *project,* not just that I will remain still with my eyes shut. I think this change is what helped my mind to be fully aware of my intentions and what helped my mind be able to cause me to separate from my body.

-I did VERY LIGHT shadow work. As in, I had simply written down a question/prompt in my journal one night along the lines of, "What do I think is blocking me from astral projecting?" People on here like to crap on shadow work because they see it as a meaningless and frivolous preparation akin to a lot of unneeded spiritual practices/beliefs, but I think it's very useful to just get your thoughts on paper and to be able to seriously reflect and be able to criticize them. It's MUCH different than trying to reflect on thoughts that are confined to your head. After performing this shadow work and journaling for maybe an hour or two, I was able to understand my problems very easily and left less afraid of them.

-I stepped away from this sub and others, and became much less dependent on them, as outlined above.

For some reason, I remember having a fuck ton of natural awakenings this morning, before and after this happened. It felt like a dozen, or maybe even more (but this could be very inaccurate and just an exaggeration by my mind.) Every single time, I woke up in an ideal state and attempted to exit. When I astral projected, I attempted to roll out of my body, and when I made the rolling motion, my vision immediately "turned on," even though I still felt that my physical eyes were closed. I got out of bed and tried my best to stabilize the projection by feeling the carpeted floor and rubbing my hands against the walls of my bedroom, absorbing the feeling of the drywall.

Everything about the projection seemed to be A-OK, so I then closed my astral eyes, then affirmed that I was in the void and tried my best to feel myself dissolving into the void. I could feel a partial loss of sensation, but it wasn't complete, and I think that after this, I accidentally lost "focus" and the phase state ended since I returned to a state of sleeping. This is a problem that I actually remember Michael Raduga describing in his book (you don't always "wake up" after projections.) Most likely because I wasn't able to record this experience immediately, my memory of it doesn't have as much clarity as my first partial projection.

If anyone has any expertise in shifting via this method, can they perhaps answer this question? How can I ensure next time that I properly dissolve into the void? I'm guessing I accidentally fell back asleep as the void has many similarities with sleep and people supposedly say that we "enter the void every time we sleep," so by attempting to enter the state of pure awareness, I accidentally just made myself fall asleep instead...?

I also would like to thank a certain user from this sub for helping me so much with AP tips when they were honestly pretty hard to come by even on the AP sub, and for being super kind and sweet, who I won't name in case they don't want any unwanted attention or people blowing up their DMs, but if you're reading this, you know who you are.

I will gladly answer any questions that I can with my own lens of experience, but be aware that this is limited.

So for me I have a couple. In my mha dr its Shigaraki. I just cannot stand that man child. Plus our past history just makes me want to punch him in the face repeatedly.

Another is my dad aka John Winchester in my supernatural dr. Im like the twin brother of Sam. We're not identical twins. I look more like Mary appearance wise. And oh boiii the way my own dad in my dr just like treats me like ass like damn I know Mary is gone and you hate having to looking at me like a hurting memory. Like shii.

Another opp of mine is Miguel O'Hara in my Spot spiderverse dr. Im already a Miguel hater here in this cr and in my dr lol. I just cannot stand him at all ideologically. Ya boi ofc gonna team up with Miles. He's not as unbearable in my dr however so he's more of a "you dont bother me, I don't bother you" deal.

I have a bunch of other opps but here's the few of the top of my head.

I genuinely think shifting has way less to do with “perfect methods” and way more to do with energy. People keep saying “just have intention” but honestly I feel like that’s just another way of saying you need to direct your energy properly.

One thing I noticed is that people who are SUPER emotionally invested in their DR usually shift easier or at least get way more symptoms. Like the girls who are obsessed with Draco and genuinely feel intense emotions towards Hogwarts — their energy is insanely strong because they actually want to experience it badly. That emotional energy matters a lot.

In my experience, LOA, affirmations, methods etc don’t really do much unless you’re putting real mental and physical energy into it. When I started actually giving it my full focus and effort instead of half-heartedly trying, I started getting successful results.

So yeah, I personally believe the more energy and emotion you put into shifting, the faster things start happening.

Happy shifting :)

I’m curious to know what the shifting community thinks about death. I’m still a baby shifter and I’m unsure about somethings like this.

I lie down in bed, I decide to do a method, and suddenly forget how to shift

Then I have to read through how the method works again, but I constantly have this feeling that I don’t know how shifting works

I think I've been in the in between state for 3 weeks. The world feel like its fading getting blurry. How long will it take to successfully shift?

I've always been fascinating by this because at the moment scientists are starting to take the multiverse theory more and more seriously and the big bang theory as this unique phenomena is starting to be questionned too and I was curious to hear your thoughts on this ?

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT MEAN TO HARM ANY BELIEFS THIS IS JUST A QUESTION OUT OF CURIOSITY. NO DISRESPECT TOWARDS ANY RELIGION.

So my question is, has anyone ever tried shifting to a place where they could experience the stories they grew up with of their religion? In this case Hinduism is more accurate. Shifting itself is a concept in Hinduism. I was wondering if anyone has shifted to a different timeline of say the Mahabharata or Ramayana even as a spectator?

Does this go against the laws of physics? Or laws of religion? Isn’t it technically possible to meet God this way? Just curious.

I understand shifting, and i fully believe in it. I had angel numbers following me everywhere like 333 and 888 and now im starting to see 111. I also ”mini” shifted a while back in my sleep, I started feeling my body started feeling disoriented, I had gotten scared since it was my first time and i opened my eyes, I saw like stuff melting when i focused my vision onto it. I do get doubt sometimes here and there but not as much as i used to.

Right now I’m just having trouble when i go to sleep, i try to set my intention in the dr but i always get off tracked or just fall asleep forgetting my dr, please leave tips or advice, much appreciated.

I'm new to this sub and the concept of shifting realities in general, but I'm not new to meditation or attempted astral projection.

I've been trying to astral project since 2014, and I've gotten close on a handful of occasions—but I cannot for the life of me get past the stage where my heart starts beating out of control.

Somebody from the astral projection sub suggested for me to try meditating on my side, since he surmised that it was my tongue going lax and falling to the back of my throat and blocking my airway, resulting in an increased heartbeat—but I attempted it while on my side and same thing, my heart started beating out of control once I hit a certain point. I believe it's always just moments before my consciousness evacuates my body, too.

Has anyone ever experienced this before and was able to overcome it? If so, how did you find a way to get over it? I felt so close to escaping to my DR last night, but couldn't get there because of my heart. It's so beyond frustrating.

What do you do before a shifting attempt that makes you feel more prepared/in the right mental state for shifting?

I honestly don’t understand why more people in the shifting community don’t just use lucid dreaming as a stepping stone to shift reality instead of constantly scrolling TikTok/ShiftTok/Tumblr/Reddit asking for advice from people who already successfully shifted.

From what I’ve seen, lucid dreaming is actually not that hard to develop. A lot of people report getting their first lucid dream within a few weeks or a month of practice. Meanwhile, you’ll see people saying they’ve been trying to shift for years without results.I’ve also seen a lot of comments where people say they’ve successfully lucid dreamed way more often than people who say they’ve successfully shifted, which kind of says a lot about how accessible lucid dreaming actually is

What I’ve also noticed is that when people do try using lucid dreaming as a shifting method, they usually rely on things like portals or doors inside dreams. And a lot of them say they end up failing and just end up in another dream instead. So personally, I wouldn’t rely on that approach.

I use lucid dreaming for shifting differently. I wouldn’t expect portals or external symbols to do the work.

Instead, I’d either:

- Expect myself to wake up directly in my DR after becoming lucid, then lie down inside the dream and wake up there
- Or let the dream environment destabilize (like floors sink ) and naturally shift into my DR self dream 
- Or use lucid dreaming as a way to enter the void state, then shift from there

Not only that, once you actually develop lucid dreaming skills, you gain access to way more than just shifting realities . You can also explore things like astral projection, entering the void state more easily, manifest, communicating with your subconscious mind.And honestly, lucid dreaming on its own is already an experience worth practicing. It’s fun, immersive, and feels like a full adventure every time. You can control the dream you can fly, teleport, spawn people literally you can do all if not more just from thought . That’s why I don’t really get why more people don’t take the time to practice it consistently.

That’s just my approach. I feel like lucid dreaming is more practical as a bridge than people give it credit for.

Hi guys! So as the title says I've shifted before quite a few times, but it's always been a half accident (if that makes sense) since the intent was there but it was never to the place I wanted to go.

Basically I'd lie down for a "nap" and I'd stay there for some time. Then I'd visualize my dr and all of a sudden I'm in some random reality? One reality was cyberpunk and the next was some weird red dead redemption 2 thing where I was on a wagon. And no I'm not shifting to either of those places.
Also. Another problem. I tried to ground myself because I want to check the place out, but I'm only there for like 10 seconds while doing grounding techniques as quickly as possible before I'm back here.

Anyway. I tried this method again but this time I visualized places I've been to in this reality that | know quite well. Problem is I start visualizing and then I feel stuck. I also try to imitate the feelings I'd have in my dr as if I was there already. But like I said.
I'm stuck.

Any way to move forward? In my head I'm certain I'm there but | just keep lying there for an hour at a time doing nothing.

hi! so back in 2020-2021, even into 2022 and 2023, i was really into learning about shifting. i knew different techniques, theories, etc; i even kind of had my own theories about it.

then in 2024 i had a traumatic experience. since then i’ve had a hard time with concentrating, remembering things, and understanding. it makes me feel… dumb, sometimes. to say the least. :( not just that but my anxiety has gotten worse and i have dissociation a lot, which is why i keep getting scared every time i feel that body floating or mind falling feeling - my mind immediately sounds the alarm because of the past trauma.

i really want to re-learn shifting, but i’m completely lost. i don’t know where to start or how well i may understand it all this time. i feel like i’ve missed my chance by not trying hard enough between 2020-2023. i’ll be turning 26 this year!!

i suppose i would just really like some guidance. have i lost my chance? will my mind (brain) ever be ready (and safe-feeling) again to try shifting?

thank you all so much. 🩷
