So…i Shifted!

just caught a glimpse of my dr room using the estelle method

having difficulty believing in shifting or LOA? this is why

did you know that our brains tend to protect us from new and unfamiliar information due to how they evolved?

this behavior stems from several biological and cognitive mechanisms, which can be explained by the following terms:

i. cognitive ease & the cognitive miser theory:

our brains prefer to stick to familiar patterns and ideas because they require less mental effort to process. this is known as cognitive ease. when something is easy to understand or familiar, it feels more comfortable and trustworthy. this is also something that helps us conserve mental energy, which was vital for survival in ancestral environments.

psychologists also describe humans as "cognitive misers" meaning that we often take shortcuts and avoid using unnecessary cognitive effort unless it's absolutely necessary. that's why learning or accepting new ideas can feel tiring or even uncomfortable because it forces the brain to work harder and reorganize familiar frameworks.

so when you're introduced to something completely new, like the concept of shifting realities, your brain might try very hard to resist it. not because it's fake, but because it's so unfamiliar that it challenges your deeply imbedded mental patterns. this can feel like confusion, skepticism or denial as you often see w/ anti-shifters.

ii. identity protection cognition:

another important mechanism is called identity-protective cognition. when new information threatens a belief tied to your worldview or sense of self, the brain reacts defensively. so even if the information isn't necessarily dangerous, it can still trigger emotional discomfort because it challenges who you think you are and what you believe is possible.

this is the reason why some people react strongly or dismissively when they first hear about shifting. if an idea challenges something you deeply believe to be true, people might even reject it—even if there's evidence, because our emotional reaction often matters more than if the information is factual or not.

evolutionary roots:

these tendencies of ours are rooted in evolutionary psychology. avoiding unfamiliar things often meant avoiding danger for our ancestors. familiar environments and behaviors felt safe, while uncertain situations could be risky. as a result, our brains are wired to prefer what's known and predictable.

this is also why habitual thought patterns become so deeply engrained, because they were once crucial for survival. changing them can therefore take a lot of effort and time because it requires rewiring our neural pathways, which the brain doesn't do lightly.

so whenever you find yourself doubting shifting or feeling overwhelmed by the thought of it, remember that it's just your brain doing what it evolved to do, which is keeping you alive and safe!

ugh UNIVERSE i need to have a talk with my nonna, please–👀–if you're listening–👀–i'm here ☕️–👀...

I was in the astral realm and I had a talk with my great grandma and she pretty much re assured how real shifting is. She told me how much more we are capable of and blames society for dimming that little light that once made us literally invincible.

She took me through different timelines, and I actually got to see myself in different versions from a librarian to even a politician. And she told me that it isn't really hard to attain it because it's within me, its literally me but just scattered in different dimensions and that becoming it can be as easy as snapping your fingers, if you only look within.

She has reincarnated as a white woman ( this made me laugh my ass off tbh) mostly because she had other dreams she wanted to achieve that she couldn't in this timeline.

She also found it funny that people are shifting to go to books and tv shows instead of shifting to realities where they are like millionaires or something😂 but what I adore about her is how open and lovely she is. Even when she was alive, you could tell her anything and she would always give you an ear to listen.

Reality is within you, look within.. that's where all your answers are

THIS. because honestly, my mindset has already been altered to believe that it is real and people that disagree with me have a right to but they can just as well argue with the wall because i don't have the patience

I genuinely don’t give a fuck whether shifting is real or not.

“what if it is fake and everything you’ve done is for nothing?”

“What if it actually is lucid dreaming?”

oh shit, what if? It’s real to me, so I don’t care. at least I’m out of whatever rathole I came from. this shit genuinely gave me a desire to live in a moment where I had none, and I wouldn’t stop myself from getting rid of myself. but that didn’t happen! and for that, I’m grateful because I experienced a lot of cool shit and met so many cool people. I grew to be someone I can tolerate, and I’ll continue to do so until i kick the bucket.

I’m glad my mind became more quiet when I stopped asking people if shifting is real and decided what it meant to me. Shifting became something I’m not ashamed of, just something that’s intimate. Not a secret but a hobby that is personally mine, something no one can ever take away from me. even if it wasn’t real, you can’t crush my dreams because they aren’t yours! And I think that’s beautiful.

and what if i say that i don’t believe in death anymore
