You may look at the title and wonder… “Lotus what is a comfort self!?”
Well friends! Let me tell you all about it!
The term originated from DRSU amino, from a user named Vanilla Love whom I have previously talked about on this blog in regards to the lucid dreaming shifting method with that twist!
The term comfort self means the self that you prefer to embody in the 3D when you are experiencing the multiverse. This can be your facial features, body, gender, sex, race, gender, and even your species.
You can have multiple comfort selves. Yes. You can have multiple identities and bodies that you feel most happiest and comfortable in as you shift through the multiverse. You don’t need to have only one comfort self! Have as many as you want.
We are all pure awareness not attached to any body or identity. There are infinite realities, and we have infinite selves. The self we are experiencing in this reality is just one of our infinite forms.
We can choose to take on a certain physical and form and identity in the 3D whenever we want in any reality. As awarenesses that shift through the multiverse many of us have preferred forms that we like to take, and that’s all that comfort selves are.
For example, let’s take a shifter named Luna. Luna was born in this reality as a human female who has light brown skin, type 3C hair, dark brown eyes, and is cisgender and bisexual. However Luna doesn’t really like her self here and she feels as if she would be comfortable as another self.
Luna does some reflecting and eventually decides her comfort self. She would love to be a fairy first of all. And she wants to have bright curly pink hair and green eyes with dark skin. She wants to explore her identity more so she is genderfluid. Luna keeps this identity and physical form as the one she prefers to be as she shifts in the multiverse.
That essentially is what your comfort self is. It’s the preferred form that you like to take in the 3D. Your comfort self can be anything. You can be any appearance, height, race, age, gender, species, or identity.
Now that you know what a comfort self is you may ask “Lotus what if I don’t know what my comfort self is!!?”
Well here’s some ways to figure it out. Start by asking yourself some questions, and think about what you want most in terms of your identity, appearance, and physical form.
What kind of people do you admire and find the most beautiful?
Who do you wish you looked like?
What kind of vibe do you wish you had?
Think of your favourite characters that you find attractive and/or wish you were most like!
What physical body would you like being in the most?
How do you physically express yourself and how do you wish you could physically express yourself?
Do you even want to be human?
If not, then what species(‘) do you wish you could be?
Read about different creatures, mythological or real.
Do you feel connected to them?
Would you wish you were a member of that species?
Then another fantastic way to figure out your comfort self(ves), is to ask yourself “what is my desired self” and write down everything that you wish to be, and qualities you have that you like.
If you’ve already found your comfort self then that’s great! That’s such a beautiful and amazing thing and may you have happiness.
For others that haven’t, don’t worry! There’s no rush. Take your time and just reflect on yourself. You will find your comfort self(ves).
The possibilities are endless and you are not limited by anyone or anything. You are the one who chooses who you shift as. Choose the self that you feel would make you the most happiest being in the multiverse. You can shift to any reality as any self.
You could be shifting to avatar the last airbender and still prefer to be a 6ft tall fairy with purple wings. You can embody that self in any reality. All a comfort self is your preferred way of physically expressing yourself in the 3D in the multiverse.
So think about what you are most comfortable being. Think about your desired self(ves). Take as long as you need there is no rush. Do as you please, meditate, journal, research, watch media, as long as it makes you comfortable and helps you then do it.
Now here are my closing words. As pure awarenesses not attached to the 3D and our body we can be anything. We are not constrained by what this reality says we cannot be.
We can be anything. You don’t even have to have a physical self! You could just be a formless shimmering mist if that’s that you want. You do not have to adhere to what people say here. If your desired form(s) make you happy then be them.
No one has any right to have a say on how someone chooses to express themselves in their 3D reality. We have infinite selves and all someone is doing is choosing what self they want to embody and feel most comfortable and happy in.
So shift and be happy in whatever form(s) you’ve decided to take. No opinions matter when you have infinity and eternity ahead of you.
