Realizing That Sleeping—something I Do All The Time— Includes My Consciousness Detaching From My

i know it's a lot to read, but this may help you shift

I have the exact same problem now :/ I'm also a logical person and had the exact same way rationalising shifting. This post really resonated with what I do and how I think. I personally gaslight myself into thinking a specific method WILL give me results because of my own articulated logic behind it and I actually shifted for the first time with it. It was the sinking method and I believed that it would be best for me to use it to shift because it requires you to have a transition into your dr. If that makes sense?

I can't visualise at all and I can't pretend to feel any of the senses which really deterred me in my journey cuz I thought that not being able to do those would hold me back and I wouldn't have as many opportunities with shifting as the people who could carry these actions out. And after thinking and mulling it over alot I found that I formed a sort of reasoning behind my problem that these methods which I cant do because of my hindrances have some type of transition into the other reality. Like the double sided staircase method. If I did a non-visualization or sleep method it would mean counting and affirming then laying in wait to shift or fall asleep which I subconsciously thought I wouldn't by that time cuz I overthink alot.

Also void state wouldn't work cuz I couldn't no matter how hard I tried get into it and I couldn't lucid dream after years of trying so that means not being able to do the lucid dream method. And the adhd method had so many steps that I would focus on remembering the STEPS and which comes after which instead of where I'm going. All other methods like the Julia and raven are ruled out as well cuz again I'd just have to affirm and wait while my mind wandered.

But the sinking method seemed immensely easier and made more sense in my mind. Though now looking back on it, it could've easily been a method that requires heavy visualising and pretending to feel stuff but because the creator of the method specified that it wasn't a visualising method I tried it wholeheartedly.

The steps are:

Affirm that your dr self/dr body is directly beneath your bed. Until you believe it.

Then count from 1 to 100 or what ever number of your choice and between each number breathe in and out. While breathing out feel yourself sink into your mattress.

You could also say affirmations like "I'm sinking into my dr self." And actually try to feel yourself sink into it and do this until you feel like you've fully sunk down to your dr self.

Fall asleep upon feeling so or open your eyes if you feel like you're in your dr.

So my way of thinking was that I could make a transition into dr easily like this and that's why this method worked for me.

TLDR: gaslight yourself with facts and logic that a certain method might work for you because of "____ reason" and it will.

Also writing this reply made me realise that if I use my own tip and gaslight myself into thinking that a specific thing works for me then it will because that's essentially what I did the first time I shifted.

everyday i thank myself for not giving up on shifting because i’ve been doing this shit for five years and it took me until like a couple days ago to do it the first time. so to the people who’ve been trying for years: I GET YOU!!!!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!! IN FACT YOU WILL!!!!!

get to know me

my name is caterinà but i mostly go by lina in my cr, it's a nickname taken from my second name adelina. i am italian and romanian. i have a tiktok: adelinasavoy, where i post shifting content as well.

i am 19 in this reality, i attend university and i've been scripting/shifting for years without knowing it.

i was first introduced to shifting earlier this year, only to learn that i've been doing it for years!

this is why i believe shifting is such a natural phenomenon. we are shifting all the time without knowing it.

my DMs and inbox is always open! please feel free to write anything you want, even if it's just to say hi! as long as you're being respectful, i don't mind and i will never judge you!
