HOW TO INDUCE HYPNAGOGIA AND HYPNOPOMPIA

— here you will find more methods, below i will give those that i personally like. this post also deserves attention

HYPNOPOMPIC STATE

EASY METHOD

— before going to bed, set an intention in the morning to immediately start doing the method (affirmations, visualization) upon waking up — wake up in the morning

PHASE METHOD

— sleep 4-6 hours and wake up with (or without) an alarm clock — when you wake up, stay awake for 5-20 minutes — go back to sleep with the intention of waking up in an hour or two and being aware of each natural awakening — it is advisable to wake up completely motionless and with your eyes closed. but it's okay if you don't succeed. after each attempt, go back to sleep with the intention of waking up and trying again — more details: 001, 002, 003

HYPNAGOGIC STATE

FOCUS METHOD

— lie down and relax your body — it is advisable not to move, but if you do this, it will not cancel your progress in any way. you can swallow, move your tongue and jaw — now choose an anchor: breathing, darkness behind your eyelids, affirmation, heartbeat, etc. — now focus your attention on the chosen anchor. from time to time you will be distracted by other thoughts, that's okay. but try again and again to return to the anchor that will keep your mind alert while your body falls asleep — “you will know when you have entered the hypnagogic state if you feel your awareness slipping from you/dozing off to unconscious sleep and you feel extremely drowsy, foggy, groggy”. however, let me remind you again that we are all different and your symptoms of hypnagogia may differ from the symptoms of most — relax. do not attempt to induce or enhance hypnagogic hallucination. watch this for about a minute and then start doing the method

SONG METHOD

— lie down and relax — play the song in your head until it plays naturally in your head or your mind distorts the lyrics — it is recommended to sing throughout the day so that this song plays in your head automatically

FOREARM UP METHOD

— lie down and relax — raise either arm 90° upward so that your elbow rests on the mattress. this is what it will look like. rersonally, i myself raise my hand at the very moment when i begin to lose control of my thoughts. and remember that if you get tired of holding your hand in this position, let go of it and raise the second one instead — when you fall asleep, your hand drops, which wakes you up. this is a signal that you are already in a state of hypnagogia. you can start affirming or visualizing, but i still advise leaving your hand raised — put your hand down and let yourself fall asleep

CONSTANT MOTION METHOD

— lie down and relax — imagine an animal or object that is constantly moving. for example, a running dog, the movement of a pendulum, a flying bird, etc.

COUNTING METHOD

— lie down and relax — now count in your head until you lose count or have hypnagogic hallucinations. try to visualize the numbers and also focus on their sound in your mind

EYE MOVEMENT METHOD

— lie down and relax — move your eyes from side to side, simulating eye movement in rem sleep. do it slow or fast, it's up to you. if your eyes are tired, then give them a little rest and start moving them up, down, left, right again

SHIFTING | VOID | MANIFESTATION

HOW TO ENTER THE VOID FROM HYPNAGOGIA AND HYPNOPOMPIA

— set the intention to enter the void state. also don’t forget to do this before inducing hypnagogia or waking up in hypnopompia — try visualizing the void or start affirming: “i am in the void state. i am pure consciousness. i am.” — feel how your body becomes weightless. imagine that you are floating without a body in total darkness — if it becomes difficult to control your thoughts, then say the affirmations again with the confidence that you are already in the void. after that, just relax and let yourself fall asleep with a feeling of fulfilled desire

HOW TO SHIFT REALITIES FROM HYPNAGOGIA AND HYPNOPOMPIA

— set the intention to shift realities — visualize your desired reality little by little. imagine sounds, heat or cold, texture of fabric, etc. — if it’s difficult for you to visualize, then affirm: “i’m in my desired reality. i’m lying on my bed in my desired reality right now” — do it with confidence that you are in your desired reality

HOW TO MANIFEST WITH HYPNAGOGIA AND HYPNOPOMPIA

— affirm what you want with the knowledge and feeling that you already have it. repeat affirmations until you get bored or fall asleep — or visualize the desire. imagine that you are holding the desired thing in your hand or come up with a short scene that you will loop in your mind — after that you can turn over on your side and fall asleep

SYMPTOMS

— do not despair if the symptoms suddenly stop or disappear. on the contrary, it is a signal that you need to continue affirming or visualizing. “i’d love to rip a hole through time, reach back and grab past-me who used to give up after hypnagogia symptoms faded, and slap her, because if my goal was mind awake/body asleep, and i reached the sign that said “hey clo your body is falling asleep while your mind is awake”— why. tf. didn’t i just keep going?”

LAW OF ASSUMPTION

— don't forget the importance of persistence, ignoring 3d and mental dieting. even if your attempt was unsuccessful, this is just a reason to remind yourself that true reality is your imagination, and 3d only reflects 4d. your thoughts, beliefs and assumptions create your 3d reality — what do you think will happen if after each attempt you say something like “i failed again”, “i’ll try again tonight”, “this method doesn’t work”? it only reinforces your subconscious negative beliefs. please ignore 3d. replace negative thoughts with positive ones. “i successfully entered the void again”, “i shift so easily”, “i did it again!” be persistent in these assumptions

TIPS

— have you ever heard about the tetris effect? “people who have spent a long time at some repetitive activity before sleep, in particular one that is new to them, may find that it dominates their imagery as they grow drowsy, a tendency dubbed the tetris effect”. more details here. the point is that before you induce hypnagogia or hypnopopmia, you need to saturate your mind with the thought, affirmation or short scene that you want to loop in these transitional creatures. read success stories, affirmations, look at mood boards, read scripts, etc. this increases the chance that during hypnagogia or hypnopompia it will automatically pop into your head without effort — don't forget the importance of intention. here's the best way to set an intention — try a couple of methods when you wake up in the middle of the night or early in the morning. wbtb works wonders — if you fall asleep instantly, then put something under your pillow or sit in a recliner chair
