LOA/shifting is definitely a pseudoscience
1 - Lack of Solid Evidence
Legitimate science: It is based on evidence obtained through controlled experiments, peer reviews and studies that are replicable for everyone.
Pseudoscience: It usually presents little or no solid scientific evidence. The "evidence" is often anecdotal or based on personal, individual testimonies.
2. It is not falsifiable
Legitimate science: It makes claims that can be tested and refuted. For example, the theory of gravity can be verified, tested experimentally.
Pseudoscience: It makes untestable claims, such as "this technique works because it is aligned with invisible energies of the universe, you need to feel a magical sensation, enter a state".
3. Rejection of Peer Review
Legitimate science: Its findings are published in scientific journals and evaluated by other experts.
Pseudoscience: Avoids peer review and publishes directly to the general public, usually in books or on social media.
4. Use of Unexplained Scientific Jargon
Pseudosciences often use technical or scientific terms to appear more legitimate, but without any basis in fact. For example, words like "quantum", "universe", or "energy" may be used out of context.
5. Appeals to Emotion or Common Sense
Instead of providing evidence, pseudosciences often use emotional arguments or oversimplifications to convince people.
6. Resistance to Change
Legitimate science: Accepts criticism and is open to revisions and re-statements when new evidence emerges.
Pseudoscience: Resists any questioning and often accuses critics of "bias" or "conspiracy".
7- Promises of Extraordinary Results
If something promises easy solutions to complex problems (such as quick cures for diseases, super powers, changing realities or instant wealth), it is a warning sign.
8. It depends on a "Lone Genius"
Pseudosciences are often based on the ideas of a single person, (Neville) disregarding decades or centuries of accumulated scientific knowledge.
9 - Pseudosciences blame the person for the failure, legitimate science is a fact that cannot fail individually, for example everyone can prove and feel gravity following the theory of gravity, in pseudoscience they will claim that the technique happens to everyone except you, the fault is yours as an individual and they should not be held responsible or judged.
Idk man
congratulations on the ld!!
i'm on the same journey, hope you shift real soon
thank you so much!! we’re both shifting soon 🎉
God, this shifting thing is really becoming a necessity, I can't stand anything or anyone here, I need to leave as soon as possible.
Who didn't get her hogwarts letter at age 11
Who didn't go to high school or fell in love with vampires
Who wished she had real friends and a lover
Who wished her favorite fictional characters were real
Who wanted to be seen and loved for once
Who cried to herself to sleep because she didn't wanna be here
GET ME OUTTA HERE
wait- i just thought about something. why don’t i use my anxiety for my advantage?
“i’m shifting tonight and there’s nothing i can do about it. i have to face it. i just have to shift because i don’t have another choice. i shift or i shift.”
SHIFTERS WHO HAVEN'T REACHED THEIR FULL POTENTIAL YET; WATCH THIS
"How often are you living in the wish fullfilled?"

i was done doing alpha state meditation so i let the audio to stop. i didn’t move during and after, i was feeling floaty and relaxed. i affirmed ‘i am in the void state’ few times then my mom called :/
shifting is literally so enlightening to me because i've never felt like i belonged in this reality ever since i was a child. i was always craving something... more. now i know why, i was meant to shift, i was never meant to stay in this reality. i get that with LOA i can definitely assume that i belong in this reality but i honestly don't want to. i don't want to stay in this reality any longer. i don't want to force myself to fit in a reality that i know deep down that i do not belong. where i truly belong is in my main drs and drs.
Saw the anon about the “shifting is a pseudoscience” thing, and I think I agree but more like yeah it is a pseudoscience in the same way that psychology is a pseudoscience, it’s relative, cannot be abided by strict rules or facts because it relays almost entirely in the internalization of the knowledge and how it works best on us might not be how it works best in someone else.
Im a psychologist and I’ve shifted a few times before but only for really short periods of time btw and truly psychology + theology + physics = manifestation and shifting
I thought that was a hater lol, my english isn't that great. now I'm confused but who cares if it's science or pseudoscience does it work? That's all that matters to me
