This method has a couple parts to it so bear with me here, I promise it's a good one. (Hopefully)

Mind Reprogramming (daily task)

Awake Method

or Sleep Method

Part I - Mind Reprogramming

This is the most important part of the method, so pay attention carefully.

If you've ever been to the spooky side of the internet, or even played spooky games at a sleepover you'll probably have heard of the game I'm about to describe. If not, don't worry, as I said, I'm about to describe it.

Basically, how the game works is you go into a room (usually a bathroom) that has a big enough mirror in it. You close the door, shut any window blinds, turn off the lights - basically make sure it's pitch black and completely dark. Then the game gets spooky because your mind fills in the blanks and makes like, eyes behind you or warps your features. Some people control it and change their surroundings to purposefully scare themselves or others when recounting their time.

The Reprogramming works in a similar way/works off of this.

To reprogram your mind, go into the pitch dark room with the mirror and stand in front of it like in the game. Instead of spooky things, however, imagine you look like your DRself. Basically, help your mind "fill in the blanks" and spend 10-15 minutes doing this and "seeing" your DRself in the mirror. You can go as far as trying to invision the bathroom/equivalent room and getting it to look like the one in your DR.

I suggest doing this 3-5 times a day in order to reprogram your mind and get it used to seeing this DRself and associating it as being you. (Because it is.)

Part II - The Awake Method

This is method 1/2 and is for if you prefer or want to try doing it as an Awake Method. Sit in a comfortable spot, on a bed, in a chair, on your couch, wherever it is you want to shift. Then take some deep breaths and close your eyes. Start visualizing, you can affirm if you'd like to during the method, but you don't have to. It's recommended to affirm before beginning.

With your eyes closed, visualize yourself (in first or third person, however is easiest for you) exactly as you are in your CR. You're in the room with the mirror, the one from the CR, but it looks bright in your mind's eye. Visualize that the room is lit, basically. Now visualize yourself approaching the mirror.

At the mirror you see your DRself (the one you've been seeing in step 1) and they mirror your actions. They look just like your mind remembers. Then, visualize the bathroom behind them. Visualize them reaching through the mirror slowly, affirming that you are them, and offering you their hand. Visualize that they ask if you are ready.

If you aren't ready allow your DRself to continue affirming that you are shifting to them. If you are ready then take their hand and try as hard as you can to visualize the entirety of that bathroom. Imagine them pulling you through and you fall into them, colliding and lying on the floor of your DR. Visualize yourself getting up and looking in the mirror. You see only your DR bathroom behind you in the mirror, and you are your DRself in the mirror.

Take a breath and close your eyes. Do a final round of affirming as your DRself, then open your eyes and see that you've shifted.

Part III - The Sleep Method

This is method 2/2 and is a sleep method. To do this method please go lie down on your bed, a couch, or wherever it is you plan to fall asleep and shift. Take some deep breaths and affirm a bit while you calm down. Then close your eyes and do a few more affirmations. It’s just about time to begin visualizing, and you can affirm if you’d like whenever you want during the method, but the only time you really should is towards the end and right before starting the method. 

With your eyes closed, visualize yourself (in first or third person, however is easiest for you) exactly as you are in your CR. Visiualize that you're in the room with the mirror, the one from the CR, but it looks bright in your mind's eye. Basically, visualize that the room is lit. Now visualize yourself approaching the mirror.

At the mirror you see your DRself (the one you've been seeing in step 1) and they mirror your actions. They look just like your mind remembers. Then, visualize the bathroom behind them. Visualize them reaching through the mirror slowly, affirming that you are them, and offering you their hand. Visualize that they ask if you are ready.

If you aren't ready allow your DRself to continue affirming that you are shifting to them. If you are ready then take their hand and try as hard as you can to visualize the entirety of that bathroom. Imagine them pulling you through and you fall into them, colliding and lying on the floor of your DR. Visualize yourself getting up and looking in the mirror. You see only your DR bathroom behind you in the mirror, and you are your DRself in the mirror.

Turning to the door of the bathroom, imagine that it attaches to your DR bedroom, and take a moment to visualize that and build it up in your mind’s eye. You are shifting, so it may take a second or two to fully become apparent, and even if you’ve only got a vague clue or a vibe of the bedroom it’ll be fine walk into. Visualize your DRself going to the bed in your DR bedroom and lying in it. Fall asleep in your DR bed repeating the line “I am shifting, I have shifted” or something like it until you fall asleep. When you wake up you will have shifted. 

Important Notes:

It is not guaranteed that you will shift with this method, as everyone is different - but the method and the reprogramming will at worst do nothing but familiarize your mind with the image of you as your DRself. 

If you have trouble visualizing, don’t worry, visualize whatever feels natural, and don’t linger too much on one spot or another.
