The biggest disservice you can do to yourself is to let your mindset do a total reset every time you "fail" at the void. PLEASE decide what state you want to be in and stick to it. Ditch the "trying" mindset altogether. Every time you intend to tap into the void state, YOU DO. Every time you fall asleep YOU WAKE UP IN THE VOID. If you want it then be stubborn, stick to one story, and stop giving a fuck about anything that tells you differently!!!

Food for thought: 1, 2, 3, 4
ok no because. ok no. no shut up iâm freaking out everybody BE COOL
manifesting and self concept has absolutely fucking shaken my entire existence in 2022 and january isnât even over yet. i cannot explain to you how amazing the human experience becomes when you break free of the chains of modern life and accept that your will, as god, is the strongest force in your entire reality. youâre the one who makes the decisions - not your parents, not your friends, not the rude mf in your calculus class, not your teacher. nobody but you.
the first thing iâm going to tell you - physical results are very much real & they are intense. i look extremely different and iâm very happy about it. one of my main goals was to lose face fat and i can fucking assure you that, if you set the intention and hold firm faith in yourself, it happens. iâm not kidding when i say i went from having a chubby face to having the model-type âzero face fat percentageâ down cold. i have ⌠cheekbones? i have ⌠a jawline..[l[.l;k;,lk[???? not only am i seeing it in myself but the people in my life have totally noticed the change too and itâs an incredible feeling having your self-work validated.Â
iâm somebody who uses a desired face; sheâs an 80â˛s actor (who iâm kind of obsessed with because i am gay) and i manifested to look like she did in her youth. iâm not fucking kidding you when i say the supply teacher in my class asked if i was related to her. and yes i am still reeling bro this shit is absolutely fucking bizarre in the best possible way.Â
if that was big to you, idk if youâre ready for what iâm about to tell you. i can already tell some of you arenât going to believe me but Tbh i do not care because i did it & thatâs enough for me - i lost 9kg. thatâs overnight. i hear you, baby manifester in the crowd, âthat shit is not possible, the hoe is lying!â - i understand because i used to have your mindset. i used to base my manifestation on what weâre told is logical. what i thought i could do. i used to aim for absolute MAXIMUM 1.5kg weight loss a day because, even though itâs a lot, itâs borderline naturally attainable. fuck logic & fuck ânaturalâ too. natural is a concept. logic is a concept. i told myself âiâm fucking limitless, iâm waking up at [xx]kgâ and i believed it and it fucking happened. i donât diet & i sure as shit do not work out. my mind is infinitely more powerful than both of those things combined.
letâs review & conclude. besides manifesting a) the face of my dreams and b) a drastic overnight weight loss that would ânaturallyâ occur over a series of months, iâve started to manifest good things without fully meaning to. this applies to the âsmallerâ things; getting boba, getting a twitter notice from my favourite screenwriter, vanilla scented perfume. it also applies to me moving fucking houses. let me explain.
what iâve actively been affirming is to move schools and start totally fresh. i go to a shithole that i hate and i simply decided i am going to a cooler school where i can restart my life because why canât i?
 thereâs this house that my family stay in for the holidays, and have been visiting since i was small; itâs in this really beautiful area about 5 hours from where we currently live. the cottage we stay in is so pretty and the road in front of it opens out into this really cool communal lake that the local kids use as a pool in the summer. itâs kind of rural in a really nice way but if you drive 5-10 minutes it gets more urban. what iâm trying to say is that itâs pretty much my dream location but iâm gonna keep it a little vague because if any of you live there & recognise the description i might actually shit myself
we were staying there this christmas and as we packed up i remember thinking so clearly and deeply âi wish we lived here, it feels like home.â last night my mum told me if things go to plan weâre going to move there the summer before i start sixth form (for my american readers, thatâs 11th grade.) thatâs fucking ages away so iâm definitely manifesting that we go sooner but i need you guys to understand this was never even a discussion in all the years weâve been visiting this place, just after i (accidentally?) set the intention. apparently it just âsuddenly occurredâ to my mum like no mother that was me infiltrating ur subconscious sorry
theyâve shown me the school iâd be attending - & itâs fucking cute. the campus is pretty much a cathedral, itâs the prettiest site iâve ever seen. itâs all very rory gilmore academia i think my pinterest girls would be proud
the moral of this story is donât doubt yourself. iâve been in the subliminal community since 2017. & from 2017 up until really recently, my self concept was so bad that my results barely ever got the chance to materialise into the 3D & i wasted a lot of my time crying over things i didnât know i could control. you are god. you can choose to decide your fate for the better just like you can decide to sabotage your dream life by doubting the power of your mind. if i can change my whole face structure, drop an âimpossibleâ amount of weight and fucking ACCIDENTALLY MANIFEST the life of my dreams after 5 years of suffocating in self pity, you definitely can too. literally nothing about this is unattainable so go get whatever it is that you want & donât take no for an answer.
I hope you know that there are things you dont have to worry about, like your imaginal acts becoming reality, i hope you arent sitting there worrying "is my imaginal act going to come to pass" because it will, THATS THE LAW??? the outer world HAS to reflect your imaginal act. You imagined what you WANTED (not what you "have to" in order to "get" your desire) now sit back and relax it will come to pass. And if you imagined it and felt it as a present tense fact you will no longer desire it so if you have doubts like "when" and "how" you arent fulfilled yet, so persist until you feel fulfilled. Some of you are super stressed about manifestation and that shows that you aren't fulfilled and just refuse to be fulfilled until the 3d reflects but thats not how it works. Your desires being fulfilled in imagination is enough evidence that you are who you wanna be and thats what Neville is trying to get across us.

How I entered the void
I think Iâve figured out what works for me personally so I wanted to share to give you guys ideas or motivation etc! :)
A few weeks ago I reflected on my entire 4 year journey and thought Iâve suffered for so long trying to figure out what Iâm doing wrong and it got me nowhere!
I tried everything. I changed my routine, tried different methods, affirmed all day long, laid in starfish position for hours, cried myself to sleep and so on. Like literally EVERYTHING.
So what if I just decided Iâm already in the void state? Or I have already shifted? Or I already have what I want?
I feel like Iâve said that a lot on my blog and I would do it for a while but this time I really understood it. Iâve got nothing to lose!
I decided I donât care anymore. Iâve decided Iâm in the void state already. I donât care what the 3D shows me. Iâm exactly where I want to be and thatâs in the void state.
Anytime I would feel doubt I would just remind myself Iâm in the void. I donât care what anyone says or does. I am in the void state!
It worked! I entered the void last night for a few seconds and Iâm not even mad that it was only a few seconds because I know Iâm already there right now!
Anyways sorry for rambling, I hope you found some helpful advice in this post!:)
I ENTERED THE VOID STATE AND I MANIFESTED BEING HEALED FROM DIABETES
I have been crying since I came back because I'm so fucking happy, I know it must sound kinda silly for some people because if you enter the void state you're manifesting a whole dream life, but I was born with diabetes type 1 and this shit is torturous, I used insulin multiple times a day for almost 2 decades, do you know what it's like having to grow up dependant on this sort of medication? I used to have hallucinations as a kid, screaming, I couldn't eat sweets at my own birthday parties, it was the biggest burden of my life and now I am HEALED. it's like it never even happened and I am so happy. thank you thank you thank you so much! Honestly, feels like I'll cry forever, I'm truly happy.

AAAAH IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!! You deserve to be happy sweetheart and I couldnât be more proud of you âĽď¸âĽď¸âĽď¸
In this post, I want to explore the concept of attentionâspecifically, aspects of it that might seem non-obvious or even surprisingly simple!
(This post contains my personal observations. If you disagree with something, thatâs totally fine! But, by the way, pay attention to yourself when you disagreeâsometimes, thereâs enormous potential hidden in that. Happy reading, my dear ones!)
Essentially, attention is our "eyes." I donât mean this in the literal sense. Iâm talking about the inner eyes that focus our awareness on certain thoughts and feelings in our minds. But if it helps, you can visualize attention like physical eyes that allow you to see the external world. Just like youâre reading these words right now with your eyesâseeing the letters, the graphical elementsâyour attention "sees" the thoughts and emotions within your inner world.
Alright, now that we understand what attention is, letâs clarify its role: it acts as our "inner eyes," observing our thoughts.
Imagine youâre looking at this text with your physical eyes, but suddenly, you decide to glance at your adorable cat lying next to you. Without overthinking it, you simply shift your focus and look at your cat. The same applies to our inner eyesâwe can always shift our attention to what feels more desirable in the moment.
Practice: Every time you realize youâre returning to thoughts and feelings that you donât want to engage with right now, redirect your focus to what you do desire. Play with your attention as if you were shifting your gaze between objects in the physical worldâafter all, isnât it effortless to move your eyes from one thing to another?
Think about it like this: you can sit through a sad, dramatic three-hour movie where the protagonist suffers endlessly, with no happy ending in sight. Or, you can close that tab and switch to a lighthearted comedy where everything is fun and effortless. See the metaphor? Itâs easier than you think. Just stop overanalyzing the process of shifting your focus, just like you wouldnât overanalyze moving your physical gazeâdonât strain your visionâŚ
Weâve established what attention is and how to work with it using the metaphor of our physical eyes. Now, letâs return to the core of who you truly are. You are pure consciousness. Sometimes, external factors and noise make you forget what itâs like to simply beâto exist as pure consciousness.
Why does everything manifest so easily in the void state? Because in that state, there is no ego or subconsciousâonly your true essence. Many people who have experienced this state, including myself, can confirm that it is the most peaceful and love-filled "place" to be.
Remember: Pure consciousness is love and peace. So how does attention fit into this?
Wherever your attention is, there is love and peace. Yes, itâs that simple. Because attention is you, as pure consciousness.
When you focus on something, it means you perceive it as something imbued with peace and love. This applies even if what youâre focusing on feels terrible, anxiety-inducing, or frightening. We love what our attention is on, no matter what it is.
It might be difficult to admit, but when we fixate on something, it feels comfortableâjust like pure consciousness feels comfortable in the void state, where there is no physical world. This may sound paradoxical at first, but if you look deeperâwithout the lens of surface-level thinkingâyouâll likely understand what I mean.
Take the most common struggle in this community: "I canât enter the void state." You keep falling asleep, you canât relax enough, you canât let go of control, external sounds and physical sensations distract you. But ask yourself (and please, be radically honest!): Donât you, in some way, feel love and peace in these so-called failures? Because even in failure, there is a kind of success.
The success of remaining in a state where youâre not yet ready for "major change." The success of continuing your journey as a seeker of truth. The success of "failing" at entering the void state. The success of not facing the "new reality" youâd physically experience after leaving the void.
Take an honest look inside yourself and recognize the love and peace you already feel toward your current situation. Be truthful and deep in your observations. Donât let your true voice be drowned out by the voices of ego and subconscious conditioning!
Practice: Take a problem thatâs been weighing on youâsomething that has occupied your attention entirely. Look at it deeply and honestly. Find yourself in it as pure consciousness (trust me, you will find it!).
Why do this? Because recognizing the love and peace even in what troubles you most increases your awareness. Awareness allows you to direct your attention toward what is truly desirable. This way, you place yourselfâas pure consciousnessâat the forefront, giving ego and subconscious the second and third places on the podium.
Yes. It is easy. Everything becomes effortlessly simple and natural once we stop fighting ourselves as projections of this reality. When we recognize that our attention is always on what we love and what brings us peaceâeven if ego tries to convince us otherwiseâwe relax and reconnect with ourselves as creators.
By placing yourself as pure consciousness in the number-one position, you begin to see the truth: you have always been pure consciousness. You just had "poor vision" (remember the eye metaphor?), which blurred your perception of love and peace. Nothing has changedâexcept that now, you can see it.
And now you understand that directing your focus with your "inner eyes" is just as simple as shifting your gaze with your physical eyes.
Less overanalyzing, more curiosity. You are the creatorânever forget that!
I hope this post has given you something to reflect on that will improve your life. Iâd also love to hear your thoughts on this topicâIâm fully open to your opinions!
Preface: I published this post before I deactivated my account, but it is still relevant.
You can create your bio from scratch. Yes, it is possible. It doesn't matter what you had in the "past" and "present" (time does not exist, there is only infinity). It doesn't matter the country in which you were born, your date of birth, your ancestry and family, social status, education and career (or lack thereof).
Nothing matters if you want to build yourself from scratch. Now only your new story matters.
I think you already know that anything is possible. Literally. There are no restrictions or clarifications. Yes, you can create in your current reality (Iâm not talking about shifting and parallel realities, thatâs a different topic, now weâre just talking about creating a new story in the current reality) whatever you want.
I want to remind you of your ability to create your biography from scratch as one aspect of your limitless possibilities.
How can I do that?
Forget the old story. She never existed. And create your new story. You can review any aspects of your biography (place and date of birth, citizenship, social status, ancestry and family, education, career, appearance, etc.).
Change your assumptions and start living by them. Identify yourself with the new story, and the outer world will definitely reflect it! You can also use Void State. The main thing is not to complicate it. It shouldn't be difficult for you!
And the most important point: no matter what, never return to the old story. Don't give her power. The outer world will definitely show you everything that you have in your imagination. It's easier than it seems.
But other people will remember my old story?
People (like you as a physical object) are an illusion. You can change assumptions about them and their memories, and everything will be according to your script. Don't worry, nothing you don't want will happen.
But how can my current reality adapt to the new story?
Everything will be as if it had always been this way. Everything that needs to be adapted in the current reality to a new story will be adapted, donât worry.
Your mission is simply to stick to the new story. There is no need to think about how this will happen. Let it go.
Accept the fact of the new history, and the current reality will show it to you. Every detail will be the way you want it to be (even if you cannot fully formulate it, you as a consciousness know perfectly well what you need).
You are God. You are the power. There is no power outside; the power is only in you. Remember this. â¤ď¸
Imagine a computer. A really solid, high-performance computer that loads everything instantly, never lags, and works flawlessly. Youâve been playing a first-person game on this computer for a long timeâsomething like Minecraft or a similar immersive experience. You get so absorbed in the game that you completely forget that itâs only running because of the computer. No computer, no game.
Then, one day, you realize that the game has become boring, and you want something newâsomething completely different, maybe even the total opposite of the game youâve been playing. But games have no limitsâyou can choose absolutely any game, with any details and visuals you desire. There are no restrictions!
What do you do to start a new game? First, you close the tab with the game you no longer enjoy. But youâre so exhausted from playing that you decide to turn off the computer entirely to take a break.
What happens when you turn off the computer? A black, static screen. Void.
And that void was always there, even when you were deeply immersed in the game. The computer never ceased to existâyou just forgot about it because you were so caught up in the storyline. The entire game world existed only because the computer was running it.
While the computer is off, you think: âWhich game do I want to play now?â You find your answer, set your intention, turn the computer back on, and launch the new game that excites you more than the previous one.
Did anything change fundamentally? No. The computer remains the sameâitâs just the game that has changed.
But now you dive into the new game, feeling a thrill because everything here is different, and itâs so fascinating! You play, play, and play⌠and then the cycle repeats.
The computer (high-performance, never lagging, flawlessly functioning) represents you as pure consciousness, the âeverything and nothing,â the foundation of your internal world.
The first-person game is, of course, the external world you perceive through your physical body.
âYou get so absorbed in the game that you completely forget that itâs only running because of the computer. No computer, no game.â
Here, Iâm referring to how we often get so caught up in external circumstances that we completely forget what everything is built upon. And what is it built upon? Pure consciousnessâyour internal world, represented in this metaphor by the computer. Without you as pure consciousness, there would be no external world.
âThen, one day, you realize that the game has become boring, and you want something newâsomething completely different, maybe even the total opposite of the game youâve been playing. But games have no limitsâyou can choose absolutely any game, with any details and visuals you desire. There are no restrictions!â
This part speaks to the moment when you become aware that the external reality youâre experiencing no longer excites you, and you want to shift to a different âgameââmeaning, you want to perceive reality differently, with new details, visuals, and narratives. And youâre not limited in your choices. You know that games can be anything, right? Well, so can reality.
âWhat do you do to start a new game? First, you close the tab with the game you no longer enjoy. But youâre so exhausted from playing that you decide to turn off the computer entirely to take a break.â
This describes the process of detaching from the physical plane (the external world) and entering the void state.
âWhat happens when you turn off the computer? A black, static screen. Void.â
This is how the void state often feels.
âAnd that void was always there, even when you were deeply immersed in the game. The computer never ceased to existâyou just forgot about it because you were so caught up in the storyline. The entire game world existed only because the computer was running it.â
Notice that even when you were fully immersed in a game, the âcomputerâ (you as pure consciousness) never disappeared. Everything was running because of it.
âWhile the computer is off, you think: âWhich game do I want to play now?â You find your answer, set your intention, turn the computer back on, and launch the new game that excites you more than the previous one.â
This part represents the transition into a ânewâ realityâwhen youâre in the void state, choosing how you want to experience the external world from now on. Once youâve decided and affirmed it in the void, you set the intention to âexitâ into this new reality (that is, return to the external world with a perception aligned with your true desires).
âDid anything change fundamentally? No. The computer remains the sameâitâs just the game that has changed.â
Youâve âexitedâ the void state. Nothing fundamentally changed. You simply now perceive reality differently, in alignment with your desires. But hereâs the key: it was always like thisâyou were always pure consciousness.
âBut now you dive into the new game, feeling a thrill because everything here is different, and itâs so fascinating!â
You realize that the external world truly reflects your chosen reality now, and you even feel excitement about it! Thereâs that feeling of novelty, yet at the same time, a deep sense of naturalnessâbecause this was always how things worked.
âYou play, play, and play⌠and then the cycle repeats.â
You immerse yourself in the ânewâ reality just as you did in the previous one. And now, the âgameâ continuesâŚ
I hope this metaphor helps you better understand pure consciousness, the internal and external worlds, and the void state. Let me know your thoughtsâIâd love to hear them!
Be happy! â¤ď¸
1. Find a comfortable position (I personally lie on my back)
2. Consciously inhale and exhale as many times as necessary to relax
3. Relax
4. Focus on the darkness behind your eyes or imagine being surrounded by darkness/in a void (like eleven in Stranger things)
5. Be, exist
6. A mantra (optional) the mantra should arise from trust, faith and tranquility, not from lack, despair and anxiety.
7. Be aware of the void/ enter the void
Doubts
Hey guys! So I've rewritten this post about 5 times but I think it's now exactly how I want it to be. Keep in mind that this post is about my personal journey with doubts and how I overcame this hurdle and my opinions on how to overcome it yourself. Take what resonates with you and I hope this helps you đ I also apologize about how long it is, I really tried to make it shorter đĽş
I think the best place to start this post is with my own journey just so you guys know that this post isn't just me preaching randomly, but what I've learned from my own experiences.
I learned about the void state when it first started to gain popularity through Angel's (@divineangelbee) blog. Prior to this, I was in the subliminal community and had spent a few days scrolling through r/nevillegoddard and loatumblr. When I came across Angel's post about the void, I was so intrigued and excited. I think we all know the appeal of the void state. This state that you can easily enter and have any desire of yours instantly granted. I was stuck in really hard life situations before and this just seemed like a dream come true. I wanted to learn more.
Other blogs began to pop up talking about the void and I also did my own research. I found out that the void state was documented even before Neville, was present in multiple religions, was a common experience amongst the meditation community, etc. I began to grow more and more excited. It was real!
I began documenting my journey on tumblr on a previous blog and attempting the void myself, although it wasn't as easy as all the blogs said it would be. However, I didn't lose hope and was willing to fail a few times if that meant I was going to get all my desires. I also really liked to read success stories because I felt like they motivated me. However, I started noticing some things about a few success stories. People saying they manifested a gazillion dollars or saying they're dating a celebrity sp when their sp would confirm that theh were in a relationship with someone else (granted they could have been cheated on but how would that happen if you went into the void and manifested your desired relationship with someone?). I wouldn't call these success stories out but it began to sow doubt in my mind. However, I found comfort in Angel's blog. I was one of her anons and she would always reply to me on any questions I had and would always make the void seem so real, so easy, and so attainable.Â
Then, Angel was exposed and my doubts went wild. Not only was Angel my favorite blogger but she was the one who introduced the void state to everyone. If she was lying the entire time, who's to say the void state is even real? What if it's all some big lie made my narcissistic, attention seekers on tumblr.
I entered a period of time where I was just very stagnant. I didn't really believe the void anymore, I deleted my own tumblr blog documenting my journey and just scrolled through tumblr aimlessly.Tumblr, especially void tumblr, turned pretty hostile and I remember success stories were being called out, void bloggers were being exposed left and right, and it just became this very negative, very angry place. And all this just made me doubt the void even more.Â
But like Uzi said, "You'll get over it." And I did. But it didn't happen naturally, I had to really stop and take a look at myself.
What happened? What REALLY happened? I ultimately came to the realization that all this wasn't even about the void, but Angel's betrayal. I am really embarrassed about this now but back then, I was so obsessed with Angel. Like I wanted to be her so bad, I wanted to enter the void as easily as she could and I loved to keep up with her and send her asks and be her anon. Like I had notifications on for her and would genuinely get so excited whenever she posted, I cringe at the thought of it now.
Not only did I have this parasocial relationship going on, but I also had this association of Angel and the void. For those of you who don't know, Angel would always going around calling herself the it girl of loa tumblr and talk about how she introduced the void and I ate all of that up and in my head, I genuinely had this mental association of Angel to the void.
So when one was exposed, I just believed the other was fake as well. But that's not really the case, is it?
I realized tumblr was doing more harm than good and I deleted it. I'm not going to lie and act like I deleted it and just moved on. I had relapses and i would get so frustrated as to why I was so addicted to tumblr and I had to constantly self reflect. I watched a few videos on YouTube on being addicted to social media and I think that's what eventually helped me delete it and keep it deleted. After deleting tumblr for good, I went back to my initial research that I did when I first found out about the void. I reread everything. I did even more research. I began finding people talking about the void in various fields during various time periods. I was slowly rebuilding my understanding of the void as well as my trust.
I also indulged in a lot of things I didn't before. I remember listening to a lot of subliminals for the void state, limiting beliefs, and self love. [I know people will ask me which ones and I didn't have any playlists or anything but there were a few I really liked and felt like they made a difference so here they are: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8]. I loved (and still do) watching self care/mindfulness content like how to overcome doubts and become your dream girl and stuff like that.
During this time, I came to terms with something else. Taking accountability and blaming myself. Up until this point, if you had asked me why I began doubting the void, I would have blamed tumblr or the lying bloggers who were exposed. But honestly, that's not the case. It was my fault. The truth is, we all know that some bloggers are lying. Whether they're doing so to live in the end or just to get attention, it's something that happens. I know I got hated on for saying this before but I've literally gotten asks where people told me they got scammed by multiple bloggers who claimed they would enter the void for them and we've seen multiple bloggers get exposed so I think it's time we accept that this is just something that is going to happen in this community.
But other people lying should have NEVER affected me the way that it did. One tumblr blogger should have NEVER completely shaken up my faith in something as proven as the void as it did for me. And I couldn't just sit and blame others, I had to take accountability. I had Void Tumblr and Angel especially on such a high pedestal when it should have never been like that and that's why one blogger lying was able to have such a massive impact on me to the point where I was genuinely depressed.
I couldn't continue blame lying bloggers because that puts my faith in the void in the hands of external factors that I have no control over so I had to take accountability and blame myself for putting tumblr and Angel on such a high pedestal and just attaching my entire faith to tumblr and being so parasocial and obsessed with "the community" and Angel.
Also, I touched on this before but I definitely had a mental association in my head that:
The Void -> Tumblr/Angel
Deleting tumblr and indulging in my research helped to breakdown that association but in order to make sure this never happened again, I had to completely reframe how I viewed tumblr.
Honestly, void tumblr is such a good resource when used correctly. There are so many amazing bloggers who put a lot of effort into helping others and share really good techniques and advice and I wanted to capitalize on that but to effectively do so, I had to really accept that some of these bloggers might be lying so to not depend on any success story for my belief.
Also, I promised myself to not engage in anymore loser activity. What is loser activity? (1) Being a parasocial fan and tying my entire faith in the void to a freaking social media app and a random blogger who I didn't even know as well as (2) hating on lying bloggers. Yep, both of these are loser activities. The first one is self explanatory but for the second one, the only reason I was hating on lying bloggers is because I was more obsessed with drama than me entering the void and was putting my entire faith into tumblr which is something I should have never done. Energy flows where attentions goes. Was I scrolling Void Tumblr for motivation or to learn tips and techniques to enter the void or to engage in drama? I wanted to enter the void and engaging in drama only increased my doubts so I had to cut that all off once and for all and I've stuck to that since.
I did end up downloading tumblr again after a while but this time, the way I viewed tumblr was completely different. By building up my faith in the void through research and by removing void tumblr off the pedestal I previously had it on as well as reframing how I was going to utilize it, I was able to use tumblr in a more effective manner as well as overcome my doubts and eventually enter the void.
So you might have been reading my personal journey and been like "why is this girl talking so much about tumblr?" Well, the reason is because tumblr was my trigger.
I remember watching this YouTube video that basically explained how almost everything that we do is a habit and our brain basically creates these habits to optimize our daily lives, including negative thought patterns. And our habits are triggered by something aka a trigger and then our brain basically creates a habit feedback loop, meaning whenever you come across that trigger, that habit will follow and if your habit is a negative thought pattern, you will spiral.
For me, the habit was a negative thought patterns of doubting the void and the trigger was tumblr and I would just spiral like crazy, doubting the void. I go really in depth to how I combatted my trigger above but I believe that everyone is different and I highly encourage you to sit down and really examine and understand yourself, identify your own trigger(s), and create a personalized plan for yourself because the thing is I can present all the evidence that the void is real to you but if you come across your trigger, you're just going to start doubting it again and it'll just be an endless loop until you actively combat it.
The best way to combat a trigger is to avoid it altogether, such as deleting tumblr in my case. However, sometimes people have triggers that aren't easily avoidable so it's really different for everyone and it's really up to you to plan it our for yourself because breaking habits is incredibly difficult so not only are you going to have to create a plan but the hardest part will be actually sticking to it but only by doing so will you be able to stop spiraling into doubt.
This section compiles a lot of the research I did [that I could still remember] that helped me overcome my doubts in the void, with some contributions from my lovely anons. I especially recommend the first 2 but keep going through all of them until you totally believe that the void state is real!

This ^ should be enough but if you're still curious, I would highly recommend browsing reddit and amino for void state success stories. You'll find a lot in shifting and ap (astral projection) communities as well as meditation communities! Browsing meditation communities is pretty beneficial as they don't really put pressure on themselves to enter the void so they end up entering it pretty easily and they have such good advice and shifting communities tend to have a lot of good motivation.
Thank you so much for reading to the end!! I really appreciate it. To summarize, my opinion on how you overcome doubts in your void state journey is by removing/combatting triggers that are causing you to spiral and doing your own research and learning about the void so that you can understand that it's a very real thing, not just something that exists on tumblr or in the loa community.
But I want to let you in on a little secret. The truth is I doubted the void up until I actually entered it and manifested everything. Not the void state itself. After all that research, I knew the void state was real but in the very back of my mind I was like "but will it guarantee all my desires?" But honestly, the truth is no amount of success stories or proof will convince you fully other than you actually entering in yourself and manifesting whatever you want. So don't be so obsessed with doubting holding you back. Focus on entering the void and once you enter, you'll find out for yourself if it's real or not. I love and believe in you and I know you got this đ
