at the end of the day, shifting advice is essentially just people sharing what makes sense within their journey, my advice included. none of us are speaking from some kind of book of shifting rules. we’re simply speaking from our own perspective. but that doesn’t mean you have to take in and do every single thing, especially if it doesn’t align with you.

it’s okay to experiment and find out what you like, but it’s also okay to ditch something completely, even if someone said it worked for them. always listen to yourself first, because your intuition will take you further than anyone else will. ‹𝟹

like imagine walking through the halls and then seeing my childhood best friend i haven’t talked to in ages. oh hello. fancy seeing you here.

and what if some of them are in my house? are we friends? how do they even act? do they have the same names as here? one might even be a prefect. i think it would be really interesting!!

⋆𐙚 ̊. stop focusing on what you don’t want and start focusing on what you actually want

some of you might have seen this video on tiktok. i really liked the manifestation analogy in it, so therefore i’ve typed it out for those who would like to read. ‹𝟹

a woman, racquel, asked her two kids what they wanted for breakfast. her oldest daughter responded with “toast, eggs, a little bit of cheese, and two clementines (cuties).”

then she asked the younger one what she wanted for breakfast, and she responded with “i don’t want eggs.”

racquel mentioned that she didn’t have anything to do with that information. so what did she do then? she started making breakfast for the oldest.

she already knew exactly what she wanted, but even found two extra paw patrol yogurts left in the fridge. her daughter’s favorite character is chase, so she got her the chase-yoghurt along with some blueberries. she then added everything to the plate because she knows her daughter loves those things, as she’s very verbal about the things she loves.

once her daughter got the plate, she responded with “thank you so much, this is even better than what i asked for.”

that however got her younger daughter into tears because she didn’t get breakfast. but racquel only responded with “i can’t get you breakfast because i don’t know what you want.”

her daughter repeated, once again, “i don’t want eggs!”

racquel didn’t exactly know what she wanted, but she knew all the things she didn’t want. one, she doesn’t like blueberries. two, she would never eat the paw patrol yogurt. three, she doesn’t want eggs. and because racquel didn’t know what her daughter wanted for breakfast, it was hard for her to give her the things that she actually wanted.

but with her other daughter, she knew exactly what she wanted. as already mentioned, she’s very verbal about what it is that she likes, and also what brings her joy. going above and beyond for her is just so easy.

whereas when she tries to go above and beyond for her other daughter, it’s kind of like a gamble. a lot of the times she’s just learning new things she doesn’t like.

the whole point is, this is how the universe and manifestation works. when you decide and know what you want, and keep putting that energy out into the universe, the universe will give you more of that. and even “oh she likes that, let’s give her more than that.”

racquel does that to her oldest daughter all the time, whereas with her youngest she’s very hesitant because of the fact that she doesn’t really know what she likes. she just knows all the things she doesn’t like.

they actually tried out something new for the youngest, where every time she loves something she has to shout it out. they went to the park and her daughter asked for an ice cream. and because of this new strategy, she turned to her mom and said “i love strawberry ice cream.”

racquel didn’t even know that. she’s been giving her vanilla for years because she doesn’t like chocolate. but that day she learned that she likes strawberry. from now on, all she will do is give her daughter more of what she likes!

and that’s how her kids taught her about the universe.

⋆𐙚 ̊. here’s a little snippet from my own meditation regarding the ego. it’s specifically directed towards permashifting, but i thought i’d share in case it could help anyone other than me ‹𝟹

“” i know you’ve thought about your life here a lot lately. things that are going to happen in the near future. plans that often aren’t even that special, basically just small things that feel important. as if your plans here are more important to prioritize, feeling like you have to experience everything here in order to shift.

but before we continue, let me remind you why these thoughts even occur in the first place. we have this very beautiful friend called, the ego. i know it feels like it’s trying to sabotage or hold you back, but that’s actually not the case. the ego is just the part of you who cares about everything that feels important and familiar.

therefore, it’s only natural for the ego to remind you of all the things you have yet to experience here. that’s what it’s made for. to keep you anchored to what’s already familiar. because when the ego sees something that feels important, it’s going to try to keep your attention focused on it. not because it’s trying to stop you, but to show that it’s valuable (to the ego.)

but you have to remember. if you wait until there’s nothing left to experience, you’ll be waiting forever.

life doesn’t run out of experiences. there’s always going to be something new. a new plan, a new place to visit, a new show to watch. big or small, it doesn’t matter. because once you do experience that thing you waited for to be over, something else is going to take its place instead. but that’s not a sign you have to stay here. it just means that life will continue, regardless of what happens.

that’s exactly how it will be. life continues. and remember the agreement you made with the ego. that it gets to stay here and experience whatever it wants, meanwhile you get to shift and experience what you want. that’s such a good deal.

it’s not the ego that’s going to experience all the new things in your new reality. it’s you who’s going to do it. the ego is a part of this reality and will continue experiencing everything here.

you are awareness. it is awareness who observes the thoughts, it doesn’t create them. you’re the one who observes the ego’s worries and arguments, not the one who speaks it. you’re the one who hears everything, but that doesn’t mean you have to follow orders. and because you’re the observer doesn’t mean you must solve the ego’s problems. because it actually doesn’t matter, as there’s always going to be another problem. over and over again.

you and the ego don’t need to fight anymore. you don’t have to argue every time someone’s want is stronger than the other. because both of you will get what you both want in the end. the ego will continue its journey here, while you will continue yours in your new reality. and that’s exactly where you’ll wake up.

if a single thought appeared consisting with something along the lines of “no you won’t”, just let it pass. because what did we just learn? that it’s the ego’s thoughts, not yours. it’s you who will wake up in your new reality, not the ego. “”

anyway. i came to the conclusion that me and my ego need to cooperate with each other instead of fighting for what we want. this morning i basically said “i know you want to stay here so badly, and that’s quite literally what will happen. you won’t shift, because i will. you get to stay here and experience what you want, meanwhile i get to shift to my new reality and experience what i want! that’s a pretty fair deal, isn’t it?”

each part gets what they want, so there’s no need to put up a fight every time. i’m exhausted, like let’s be friends instead lol

⋆𐙚 ̊. this is your sign to stick to your affirmation!!

i’ve been affirming “i trust myself to wake up exactly where i want, no matter what” for a few days now. but earlier this morning i switched it up to “i trust myself to wake up in my new reality”, and as i started to doze off, i automatically went back to my original affirmation. no resistance and no questioning what words i’ll use. it was so natural, as if it was my default. and that genuinely made me go ouuu wait, it’s starting to stick!!

this has literally never happened before, because i’m gonna be honest, i always change to a completely new affirmation after a few days. as in, i never really give my affirmation a chance to actually materialize lol. it’s like planting a seed and digging it up over and over again before it even has the time to grow. :,)

so yeah, repetition really does work! your affirmation will eventually become your default. ‹𝟹
