I’ve mentioned this before, but I used to be very attached to the idea of being me in my drs. I mean like same interests same personality same look same trauma same everything—
but recently i’ve embraced being me, in essence, just different variants.
And it’s fun as hell.
I get to make playlists for my drs and fill them with the artists I’d listen to most in my dr. Mazzy Star fills my Hogwarts Academia playlist, I’m currently adding Paramore’s entire discography to my Inheritance Games playlist. These aren’t artists I necessarily gravitate towards here, but they resonate with the version of me in that reality.
I change my name, I change my past, I find new ways to be who I am without living the same history over and over again. The essence is there, and that is what truly matters to me. It was never about my life experiences, it was about my soul.
I can change my hair, my aesthetic, my interests— but nothing will change my heart.
going over your 'blockages' in order to shift it’s a myth. thinking that you have to wait the right moment in order to shift it’s also a myth. shifting ≠ journey where you have to make progress. you are not creating your drs, you are just thinking of them. you don’t need anything to make you shift, but if you think that doing something will help you then it will. shifting symptoms are a myth. shifting doesn’t take time. stop over complicating it !!!!!!
Can we STOP babying shifters? Everyone is like "No bb, you will shift; don't give up!!!" after somebody says they haven't shifted yet. CAN WE PLEASE BE SO FOR REAL. Like please. Im tired of all the whining about not being able to shift It is the easiest thing. You say you are there then boom you are there. "But Emily my 3d" WHO CARES? Genuinely who fucking cares.If you say you are in your dr, and u visualize it, then ur 3d will change. IF heavy on the if, you trust yourself.
"But what if I can't trust myself?" Everyone has doubts, and I mean EVERYONE. If you counteract those thoughts with "Impossible everything I say is true, my intention is never wrong." Your 3d will have to change to reflect that. IT IS LAW. The only thing you are doing wrong in your journey is thinking its much bigger then it is. All you need to do is say you are in your dr and persist on that thought. Stop telling shifters that they will eventually shift and just tell them straight up, to affirm and persist. Again your 3d will have to change.
I was just talking to my mom about executive dysfunction and how it’s not just for things you don’t want to do (I saw a post on instagram and felt seen… anyways)
The words were out of my mouth and then I just had to stop and stare because— maybe I haven’t shifted because of this. Yes, I want to shift. I know I want to shift. But maybe it’s in the same way I think to myself “oh I want to play that game” or “oh I want to watch that movie” and then simply ✨don’t✨
Maybe that’s what I’m doing with shifting.
Now the question is… how the hell do I stop?
Because this is more than just a video game or a random movie. I want it, I crave it, I ache for it. I feel my drs in my heart and in my soul. I am haunted by the knowledge of what it will be like to love and be loved in my drs— and yet I remain here.
But I will break this godforsaken cycle if it’s the last thing I do because fuck you I want to shift and therefore I will.
my shifting “routine” at this point is not caring because i’ve done enough affirmations and intentions, i have to shift and i will shift
Shifting is guaranteed. I know you hear a lot of people say this, but it truly is. Nothing can stop you from shifting, not even death. The moment you found shifting and decided you want to do it, you already did. There's no hurry, no rush, you just have to wait for it to be reflected into the 3d. And it's 100% sure that it will, so sit back, get yourself a drink (coffee) and watch it come to you!
may i offer you some shifting memes in these trying times
EMMA, MY BELOVED, I DEVASTATINGLY NEED YOUR HELP. So nowadays when I wanna shift I do my thing and then fall asleep and wake up and go back to sleep again hoping to shift then wake up and this cycle continues. Then I realize I've wasted my precious time here and haven't shifted and just fall behind things in life in general. (I try to shift around the afternoon because I usually fall asleep at night) What do I do to end this cycle? It's become very unhealthy and I can't seem to stop because I have hope to shift.
you need to stop using sleep as a trapdoor. like i get it. i get it so bad. you're clinging instead of claiming. shift awake. shift before sleep. shift while brushing your teeth. shift while doomscrolling. shift before you even think about sleeping. you're not stuck, you're just trying to break through a door that was never locked. stand up. you're allowed to choose it now. you're allowed to shift in the middle of being alive
note: fully inspired by @stilljuststardust's post "the senses shift last", which you can read here.
how often do you experience anxiety? or intrusive thoughts? as a person living in a certainly tempestuous time, you've likely had to brush off those thoughts more than once.
the act of shifting is defined by choosing to become aware of your desired reality, and your senses immediately following suit is a rare event.
when you go to shift to your desired reality, I want you to brush off what your senses tell you like you would an irrational thought. if you're like me and have ocd or anxiety or depression, this doesn't seem possible, so I offer you another solution —
treat your senses like they're a jealous peer spreading rumours about you. we've all been there already. not everyone is going to like you, and sometimes that makes them lash out in ridiculous ways. there's nothing else you can do about it than brush them off, laugh at it, scoff at it.
you know that meme, "all I can do is pray for you — matter a' fact bow ya head"? that's the energy you have to embody when somebody's lying to you or on you. oh, I hope you'll get better ♡ jealousy is a disease type energy. when you shift, treat the 3D and your senses like you pity them for not knowing better and feeling that way. pity the 3D for not keeping up with the times. pay it less mind than you would someone trying to get a rise out of you.
have you ever heard of the "let them" theory? I first discovered it on the justnomil subreddit. it's a way of not giving someone attention when they're doing something stupid, or mean, or ridiculous. essentially, if someone's not going to listen to reason or common sense, don't sweat off your back trying to get them to. it's unnecessary stress and futile. let them make a fool of themself because experience is the best teacher.
so let the 3D say what it wants. let your senses try to convince you that you haven't shifted. it won't matter because you know the truth. you know you're in your DR. you know you're your DR self. let the 3D make a fool of itself — experience will make it catch up sooner or later.
tldr — look at the 3D like this when you're trying to shift;
be sure to limit this method to when you're actively trying to shift or manifest. don't use it to fuel delusions or psychosis. you can participate in the 3D and maintain lucidity while still manifesting.

Think as if it's working. No I am not joking. The law of assumption doesn't just apply to money and that boy you like it applies to everything. If you are assuming that nothing is working then that will manifest into your reality.
The law of assumption requires that you think as if it has already manifested. If you are not doing that you are not applying the law.
I cannot bend the law to your limitations. I cannot make it more limited for you because I am not willing to lie to you. A lot of you want the law of assumption minus all of the assumption parts.
If yon't want to think as if, you don't want to accept that the 3D is malleable, you will straight up argue with people who tell you that you have it, so why are you here? Why are you trying to apply the law if you reject everything about the law?
Do you want to manifest things just by accepting you have it or do you want to wait until it has manifested to begin thinking as if it's here?
The law of assumption cannot fail you. "Well then why haven't I manifested what I want" because you aren't assuming what you want you're assuming all of this stuff you don't want
If you think of everything negative in your life as this infallible force beyond your control you are ironically controlling it and making it a presence in your life.
You either have it or you don't. Think as one not both. You can't say you're manifesting something and then complain about how you don't have it because by doing so you are directly manifesting the opposite.
Do not get so caught up in doing enough that you forget you're the one deciding what is and isn't enough.
I don't want you to read this and get anxious. No you don't have to "start over". Manifestation is not a process so you're not losing "progress". You don't have to reflect, you don't have to search for a new method. Just take a deep breath and tell yourself it has already manifested. Repeat that to yourself until it does.
You don't have to do anything. It has already manifested. How? Because you said so.

. . . stop putting pressure on shifting and loa ౨ৎ i’m begging. hands and knees. nicole-kidman-in-babygirl-level pathetic. all work and no play makes jack a dull boy. all pressure and no silliness makes you a shifting chokehold artist. not cute. not camp. so why are you treating shifting like some corporate ladder you’ve got to climb in one go? why are you looking at loa like it’s a performance review waiting to tank?
shifting is supposed to be fun!!!!!!!!! it’s supposed to feel like giggling at 3 am about how you’re gonna waltz into some alternate reality and seduce a fictional character. it’s supposed to be the kind of ridiculous that makes you laugh out loud because, you’re trying to script what your hair smells like in another world. that’s the magic. it’s light. it’s playful. it’s camp as hell. you’re allowed to have fun, to mess around, to let it all feel easy. you don’t have to wake up every day and white-knuckle your affirmations like it’s a legal deposition. shifting is meant to be yours. dreamy, light, free!!!! like a little skip in the clouds. not something that makes your stomach knot.
when you’re treating shifting like some corporate KPI or the olympics of manifestation, you’re missing the point. stop squeezing so tight. you’re not building a seven-figure empire; you’re daydreaming with a purpose. stop choking it. breathe. unclench. shifting isn’t the SATs. there are no bonus points for being the most serious or stressed about it.
you wanna know what works? what really works?????? not taking it so seriously. take the pressure off. there’s power in absurdity, in letting yourself be a little silly. lean into the fun. play around with the idea of it. laugh at yourself. go outside, sit under a tree, eat something sweet, let your brain daydream for the hell of it. shifting works better when you’re not treating it like an unpaid internship. loosen your grip. loosen your mind. loosen you. shifting is not your boss. loa is not your boss. you’re in charge here. and frankly, if you’re not spilling a drink while scribbling in your journal or dancing to some unhinged playlist about your dr, you’re doing it wrong.
loosen up. let it be fun. you are not shifting wrong because you laughed too much or didn’t meditate for 45 minutes in lotus position. joy is an amplifier. camp is an amplifier. being a little ridiculous IS AN amplifier!!!!!!!!
and here’s the tipsy genius bit i’ll drop, margarita in hand BECAUSE I NEED YOU TO UNDERSTAND THIS!!!!!! shifting isn’t about proving anything to anyone, including yourself. it’s about creating magic, and magic thrives on curiosity, silliness, and the occasional over-the-top flair. so get out there and be a little unhinged about it. script something stupid. throw glitter on your vision board. vibe with it. don’t choke it out. you’re doing great. keep going, but for god’s sake, keep it silly.
you’re already everything you need to be. you’re already on your way. just let it be fun. before you know it, you'll be having fun in your dr too.
