The hypnagogic state : how to reach it.

The hypnagogic state is a state where we naturally go into before sleeping, a sweet spot moment before sleeping and still being awake, a state where it is so powerful to be able to shift, get in the void, or basically do anything.

Now it requires NOTHING, it only requires one small thing that might sound tricky.

Staying awake long enough for it to come by on it's own, and actually on average it takes 10-5 mins from each person to enter it aware.

The steps:

Lay flat on your back (not needed, but many results come from laying on the back)

Do. Not. Care, just go with what you usually do to fall asleep, but one thing? You're not falling asleep, you're watching your body fall asleep, that sweet spot where your body is about to fall asleep? That's hypnagogia

Actually don't move, it may give your mind signs you're still not sleeping, now just lay there and try not to sleep while focusing on the blackness behind your eyelids.

You will start seeing flashing images or swirly things or even just flashing lights and imagery, this is the hypnagogia and you managed to reach it in just 10 mins of pretending to be asleep (acc it takes me 4)

Bam, that's the sweet spot, now affirm slowly for the void, or just sense your surroundings for shifting or maybe you can try your shifting method here! This state cannot argue back, you'll be immediately shifting in no time, and slipping in the void is so easy from it.

So really the whole steps is just "lay down, don't move, watch your eyelids, color seen? Hypnagogia reached, method or void procedure done, bam."

I managed to find a post on Reddit on how to keep your body awake, you can try 2 or 3 of them to keep yourself entertained, FULL CREDITS TO THE ONE WHO POSTED IT ON REDDIT (calaie_iscoolio):

"1. Looking in the darkness behind your eyelids

Basically what it says, when you close your eyes, just focus on the darkness until hypnagogic imagery begins to happen i.e. colors, shapes, literally anything that will show. When images begin to show up, do not interact or acknowledge what you are seeing, you can look at it, but don't try to control it and just let the images flow until you feel that the state is induced enough to where it won't disappear because you are "too" awake/aware.

2. "Forearm Up" Method

Another technique that basically helps with people who tend to fall asleep to quickly, basically lay down on your back like usual, lift your hand up in the air where your elbow is resting on your mattress, keep it there and as it slowly falls down that's where you'll begin to fall asleep, it'll drop and basically awake you back up.

I had also seen a shifter mention that they prefer to lay on their stomach and lifting their foot up in the air and basically do the same thing. This technique basically just wakes you back up.

3. Thomas Edison Method

Very similar to the "Forearm Up" Method, basically what Edison had done was he had held a steel ball in his hand, and when he began to fall asleep, the ball will drop and alert Edison awake, another technique to help with people to struggle to stay awake.

4. Imagine Constant Motion

Basically imagining something whether that be an animal or an object constantly moving like a horse galloping, a dogs tail wagging side to side, etc. (Pretty simple, for people who find it much easier to visualize).

5. Tire your body through out the day

During the day, you could do any tasks that would just tire your body out that leads up to your attempt to induce the state, it'll make it much easier for you to get into the state and induce it since your body is already tired enough to relax.

6. Repeating "hypnagogia"

This will mean you have you just repeat the words "hypnagogia" to yourself till you get tired enough and then hypnagogic imagery will eventually appear.

7. Counting

Basically just like regular shifting methods, you could focus on counting up to how much you want to until you begin to get the hypnagogic hallucinations, to keep yourself from falling asleep you could give yourself simple math questions just so it's enough to focus to answer it.

8. Imagining Randomness

Imagine literally anything that isn't related at all, i.e. horse, roof, apple, pen, desk, etc. Visualize and filter through random objects or animals that have no correlation and that will induce the hypnagogic imagery, randomness is key.

9. Focus on breathing

Similar to any shifting method, basically focusing on your breaths is another technique to induce the state. Literally just anything to keep your awareness occupied rather than letting your mind just shut down to go to sleep.

10. Sounds

Listening to anything in your environment, whether that be things happening outside, if it's raining listen to the rain, or if you've got headphones on listen to the music and focus that, keep your focus on the music so you don't fall asleep.

11. "Playing" a song in your head

Not necessarily listening to the song, but imagining the song playing in your head, whether that be your favorite song, if you know how it sounds like, imagine it playing and once you've entered the state, it will naturally play and you'll end up actually hearing the song.

12. Heartbeat

Basically just focus on your heartbeat. Listen to the amount of beats.

These are all the various of techniques you could use, you don't have to stick to one and can basicaally try them out, see which one you feel like works for you and go from there. A tip is also you could pick like 4 or 5 out of these 12 and just filter through the techniques if you can't just stick to one since you get uninterested quickly. (I get bored easily, do I normally do 8, 9, 7 and 4 just so I don't lose interest.)"

Good luck y'all!

Not mine but I screamed when I saw this, thank you pinterest gods

ANOTHER DR INTRO <333

The first one I made was my drself intro (at the time in which I shift). This time it's for my aunt Jupiter ☆

"(blue)" = Earth-19 me adding comments nyehehe

"Heya, kiddo! Did ya miss good ol' Jupiter-? ⯎"

You can call me Taro! (pronounced the same as tarot lmao) I'm one of the founding members of this little thing we call "S" here, along with "princess bubblegum" [with siri] and "brawns-for-brains" over there... and wannabe torero, I guess... (gosh that guy gives me the ick...).

I'm from from over the west side (Mexico) so I'm like... fluent in several languages! ¿Que chido, no? (moved to Japan in like, preteen years?)

I work as an engineer, technician, and those among other things (such as clothing designing and whatnot; I'd say I have a pretty good eye for that (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧) Of course, besides my career, I have a strong passion for skateboarding! I've been practicing ever since I was in... what? Junior High? Uy, it's been a while.. (girl you're in your 20s y'aint that old) And because of that I met Kaoru and Kojiro. The wrecks those two were back then, I gotta tell you... well, they still are. (snicker) Recently, a (second) cousin of mine moved here, and I finally got to see my nephews again! Since I knew the younger of them (all of the sudden I sneeze or something lol) was into skateboarding, I thought it'd be cool to bring them here [to "S"]. He seemed to like it, but he was hesitant at the idea of coming often since... I mean it's illegal, hah! But trust, I got them covered. Maybe you'll even get to meet them! Anyhow, I hope to see you more often around here. Why don't you tell me about yourself, hm?

annnnd yeah! She's a relative of mine in like several realities lmao, I LOVE HER SM <3

She's the one who made my S outfit and the one who designed Carla for Kaoru (I mean at least in my reality).

The drawing above is mine from a while ago, I really need to make more drawings of her frfr...

Edit: my IDIOT AHH forgot she has a NICKNAME IN S!! :,DDDD MY BAD I EDITED THAT THO!! So sorry y'all, but yes say hi to my aunt

Just because you haven't shifted yet doesn't mean you can't Will you trust in what I'll tell you? Just for the duration of this post? You are not broken, not doing it wrong. There isn't anything like "not spiritual enough" or "not aligned enough", "not ready enough" or any of the crap that your inner doubts viciously whisper into your ear at 3AM. You are just a person, just human. Someone trying something so weird, hard, strange and yet something so beautiful like shifting, and something most of the world doesn't even believe in. That takes guts. Shifting isn't a linear, one-size-fits-all thing. Shifting isn't a video game you master by leveling up and spending thousands of hours on it. There is no test, finish line, invisible scoreboard you need to glance at. Just because you haven't shifted yet doesn't mean you are failing. Doesn't mean that you aren't trying hard enough or that you are missing something. Just means your 4D and your 3D haven't lined up yet. But that doesn't mean they never will. Honestly said, you could shift tonight. Tomorrow. Next week. In six months when you least expect it. You could shift in the middle of doing something completely unrelated. The nature of shifting seems to be unpredictable, personal and unproveable until you experience it yourself. Should I tell you something else? Nothing you ever did to shift was wasted. Not the time you spent scripting, visualizing, hoping, crying, failing and trying once again. It all matters in the moment, but once you reach your goal, it will not matter any longer how long it took you. You are not running backwards. You are simply on your own way, and maybe that way is a bit longer. You don't owe anyone a set deadline, not even yourself. Try to take the pressure off your shoulders, you are not a machine that can push itself to the limit forever. You are a soul, allowed to be tired and frustrated, allowed to take a break and come back when it feels right for you. Maybe try tonight. Or don't. Script, or don't. Listen to your heart and body, try when you feel like it, not when you have to force yourself. I promise you are close, the fucking door is still wide open. Your chance hasn't run away, it's there. It will all be worth it.

"S" PERSONA DETAILS !

quality is so bad trust it wont be like this for long y'all 😭

Alr so I've been in this shifting stuff for like… 4 years now off and on?

and i'm still not conscious of/remember a shift.

however, I will say that I've recently found out about something called the gateway tapes, which aren't necessarily for shifting but I'm pretty sure you can use it to help you shift.

I believe I still have it in my drive, so if you want that I can send that over to you ☆

It's okay hon, you're already there, whether you realize it or not (ik this is easier said than accepted but idk how else to say it) <3

I really can’t with this reality anymore 😭

Drop all of your shifting tips please please please

Because it’s been 2 years and nothing has changed in my shifting journey and I really have to shift tonight. I don’t have enough power to stay here anymore. I attempt to shift EVERY SINGLE NIGHT and even if I want to take a break, I cant. I have to shift so bad. I’m not good. I don’t feel good at all. I’m so tired. Please someone help. Please. Please. Please. I beg you

I know you all will tell me no one can help me because shifting is something that only I can figure out what works for me. But I can’t anymore. Idk maybe something will click and I will shift.

SK8 The Infinity

They're also able to switch colors (bc I'm indecisive and don't have a favorite/preferred color for this, but I have it in cyan+lime colors just cuz)

This is my little... fit for "S", I guess 🪄✨️

I love making these

Like why tf would I choose this place

me thinking what if this is my dr and i actually permashifted here:

“shifting is a form of witchcraft”

good to know that I’m a witch in every reality!

I asked Chat GPT to write a short story about me and my s/o… My motivation for shifting is back

“i shifted, I thought you were lying about it but it’s real”

tell me something I don’t know

not believing in shifting doesn’t make you any “better” or “normal”, you’re just boring.

I’m tired of this reality, I need to be in my DR like right now

I swear almost everything I’m learning at school somehow relates to shifting

I just saw a tiktok saying “i hope that I’m a spiderwoman in other universe” AND THE URGE TO COMMENT ABOUT SHIFTING IS HARD TO RESIST

I LOVE TEXTING WITH RANDOM PEOPLE ABOUT SHIFTING like yes babe, tell me all your scenarios, random situations, your relationships, your whole backstory I WANT YO HEAR EVERYTHING!!!

I am starting to think about making my own subliminals account on YouTube or SoundCloud and posting them with good music because I just can’t listen to subliminals with rain sounds or boring songs. Also if I would do this, I could also take requests from you and you would also get to choose which song you want in the subliminal

The legendary four

“shifting is fake”

an angel lost its wings without even trying to gain them

Do you have any unpopular opinions about shifting?

I have a few but tbh I am scared that some people will hate me for them

one of my (many) weird habits is judging the nipples of shirtless male actors

i have no idea why i started doing it but i doubt i’m going to stop anytime soon

being both a shifter and an over thinker is actually going to kill me

someone please play “heroes” by david bowie at my funeral purely for the vibes
