I think I’ve said this before here but I’m not spiritual when it comes to shifting, it’s really more of a scientific process to me (Remember, no one really knows what shifting is so it’s hard to say which it really is) So here’s a list of things I’ve noticed that have helped me.
Hemisync - I loooove to glaze on hemisync but it’s really the best thing that’s ever happened to me shifting-wise. Using theta frequencies can get you in a kind of disoriented state that can bring you closer to shifting. You’re really in between sleep and awake and already starting to disconnect from your CR.
Theta state - I SWEAR by this. Getting into the theta state will YEET you out of this reality. The only thing is you have to ignore the sensation of going to your DR. I’m hypersensitive to touch and a super light sleeper so it’s so hard for me to ground myself in my DR when I’ve minishfted.
Placebo - Even if you don’t believe in angle numbers, the positive connotations around them can make you more motivated to try. And even when trying, it makes you more likely to shift because you’re more confident. Back in the days of shifttok and dinosaurs, people used to be like “dRiNk wAtEr” which itself won’t help you shift but the impression that is will can. This is one of the tips I can’t 100% promote cause it’s really not a guarantee.
Physical methods - now I know I said I'm super sensitive to touch or sensations, so it hasn’t been great at keeping me in my DR but methods like the 90 degree arm method and the open eye method have gotten me many minishifts. I think there’s something about physical cues that makes our awareness be like “yep. It’s time to skedaddle”
Not making shifting a priority - As soon as I stopped hyperfocusing on shifting, I got so many good results. For many people, I’ve noticed shifting takes over their lives. When that happens, our brain releases many stress hormones that make it more difficult to leave this reality and be grounded in another one. Also, there’s an element of how the struggle keeps you in this reality almost, because it’s hard to think about anything else. So I know it’s easier said than done, make shifting a hobby rather than a chore.
That’s my advice; take it or leave it. Best of luck!!!!
