i genuinely never understood why people think or believe that changing your race in other realities is bad. like..? there are people that shift to be different species, but god forbid someone want a different skin tone, or a different culture. shifting to change your race is completely fine, and there’s nothing wrong with it in my opinion.
we’re literally immortal, infinite beings that can change the things around them with only our imagination. we don’t have a set race, or a set gender, or a set species. we are ever changing, and we have the power and knowledge to do what we want and to look how we want. i pity people who don’t understand that.
You know how when you shift somewhere, even things you have already done or seen a million times feel exciting and in a way, 'new?'
After restarting my life and coming back here, it feels like I can watch movies again for the first time, and it's such a refreshing feeling
Hii! I am pretty new to the Tumblr shifting community and I didn’t really plan on posting anything but after browsing around a bit, I kind of wanted to give my two cents on shifting. I used to be active in the Amino community back then but then I took a break to focus on myself. Some time passed since then and I have been shifting pretty regularly now. And after looking through some posts, I wanted to share some things to maybe help others.
Disclaimer: I fully believe shifting is personal and should be tailored to you. What works for me might not work for you and that’s okay! However, I would be very glad if this helped someone. Also excuse how I explain some things. Since I just got back, I’m not very caught up with new shifting terminology so I’m just going to explain how I understand it instead.
You are only consciousness. That is what you are and what you will always be. There will never be any reality, circumstances, doubts, fears, or anything tied to you unless you allow it to. You as consciousness, your only role is to experience and be conscious of things. So as you become conscious of new things, you shift.
As consciousness, your natural state is the void state. You only experience reality when you take on a vessel, which is your body. So through these vessels, you experience reality. And as you live in these vessels, you will encounter its emotions, doubts, and thoughts. This is why people say you are not your doubts or fears, because truly you are not. You are only experiencing it through the vessel. They are not your own, but the vessel’s.
So to shift realities, you simply decide a reality then become conscious of it. Literally just that, you decide and then become. There’s nothing more or less to it I swear.
I think the reason why many people fail to comprehend this is because they had been putting in so much effort that they couldn’t believe how actually effortless it really is. I think it’s because they try to force it without understanding how it just comes naturally. Shifting shouldn’t be about taking control but rather just be. I see people asking how this and how that and am I doing it right, and I just want to say forget all about that and focus on just being.
You had always just been consciousness experiencing reality through a vessel your whole life. You had always made a choice on a reality then proceeded to become aware of it. So now decide on that reality that you want and just be conscious of it. That’s all it is. If it helps, help yourself understand that you are only consciousness. Remind yourself throughout the day, when you experience this vessel’s doubts, or before you sleep. Truly understand that you are not tied down by anything because you are literally just consciousness.
If you question why you should listen to me, it is because I was in your shoes before. For a really long time, I really thought that shifting is just not something I could do and that it was all just an inside joke. I was at my all time low and I just didn’t know what to think or believe anymore. Yet, here I am, shifting as regularly as I sleep. That being said though, I don’t want you to idolize me or envy me. Don’t idolize a consciousness when you are literally one as well and can do anything I can.
I hope this post was understandable. I’m not much of an explainer but I tried my best.
Imagine you see a baby trying to speak for the first time. At first it only gets out tones, random noises.
Yet I don't see any of you telling said child, ''You're fucking worthless, you can't even speak.''
Because in order for this child to talk, it has to learn. Some learn really quickly, they get the hang of it after a few tries. Others need a few months or years, and that's okay. Every failed attempt is not a waste of time, it's not a failure, it's what is necessary to learn, and get the results you want.
You're learning, growing, like a baby standing up for the first time and falling back down. You would never tell that baby that they're useless, instead you cheer them on as they continue to try. And before you know it, they're running around and talking fluently.
Be kind to yourself💚
how to get what you want without affirmations
you don’t need words. you don’t need to sit in front of a mirror and say “i am rich, i am powerful, i am devastatingly beautiful” fifty times like a malfunctioning wind-up doll. reality does not care for your diction. you are not a salesman, and the universe is not some reluctant buyer waiting to be convinced.
the mistake is thinking you need to tell it what you want. the bigger mistake is thinking you need to tell yourself. affirmations are training wheels. good for beginners, good for those who still need to hear it. but the minute you’re relying on them, you’re admitting that some part of you doesn’t believe it’s already true.
belief is the whole game. not logic, not effort, not obsessively restating your desires as if you’re a student cramming the night before an exam. have you ever noticed how the things that come easiest are the things you never had to try for? how the moment you stop fixating on something, it seems to slip right into your hands? it’s not luck. it’s not irony. it’s that you moved into the having state without resistance.
forget the script. forget the language. what would you feel if you already had it? what would you not feel? because the absence of desire is the presence of fulfillment.
get into that state.
not the one where you are trying to be, but the one where you already are. it’s not about pretending. it’s not about hoping. it’s about settling into the quiet, absolute certainty of someone who does not need to ask. because the ones who have never ask.
bro i wanted to get into witchcraft and stuff but why do all witches hate shifters like okay erm..
the doubt method
this is a shifting method for the doubters out there. the ones who try to affirm or act as if they’re in their dr yet they contradict themselves by thinking that they’re still in their cr and feel bad about it.
what you have to do is choose two of your drs. the first one (dr 1) is the reality where you’re planning to go, the second one (dr 2) is a reality that you simply like but it’s not your priority.
start affirming of being in your dr 2, but then contradict yourself by saying sentences like “ugh i just know thats not true because i’m actually still in dr 1, that’s so annoying, i really want to be in my dr 2 yet i’m still in dr 1, why??” you basically have to rant about it.
this is similar to when you go against your affirmation out of doubts like “no i’m still in my cr :((“ so you would use this to your advantage and instead go “no i’m still in my dr 1 :((“.
try this and see yourself shift.
edit: someone on tiktok informed me that there’s a similar method so make sure you check that one too, it’s called the nowehere method.

i love shifting to see my lovely beautiful charming boyfriend. i love manifesting stuff to make life easier or to simply spoil myself. i love it all.
but the thing that made me genuinely fall in love with the law is how limitless we become when we truly acknowledge it.
you know that cliché moment in movies where the main character comes to a joyful conclusion and simply starts laughing while running down a hill? that's me. that's how i feel every time i remember i can be, have, do whatever i desire. i feel this immense feeling of contentedness.
seriously, it's so beautiful.
do you realize how crazy it is? we can live hundreds and hundreds of lives, this is immortality. explore every single corner of the universe. time does not exist.
and it's all within us.
when i say "acknowledge it" i don't mean reading it on a tumblr post, going "wow" and that's it. no. i mean sitting in my bed, alone with my thoughts — my thoughts that, unlike years ago, aren't torturing me with anxiety, instead they fill me with this weird sense of adrenaline and happiness — and truly going into the depths of realizing, feeling the power i have. we all have.
this feeling is so enormous i genuinely can't put it into words, so sorry about that, this post might seem a little messy, but my god? how insane is that?
guys i just came up with this analogy for shifting. idk if this makes sense but for me it does. so. yeah.
when you meet someone completely new, you become aware of their existence the moment you see them. does it mean that before you saw them, they didn't exist? obviously not, they've always lived their lives. same with our desired realities!! even if you're not aware of them, they already exist right now:DD all you have to do is acknowledge their existence!!
shifted and i don't know how to announce this without sounding like a girl who sells bathwater on depop. i was just lying down. i didn't mean to !!!!
