Prompt 3: Self-curiosity

How do I define myself when I’m alone versus when I’m with others? When Im around others especially if they are folks i dont know that well i try to take on a job or be helpful in some way. Its like i dont know who i am around ohter people without having that assigned role to play. So I usually volunteer when im going to new events and stuff. It also helps me meete new people. When Im alone i dont know if i define myself at all. I dont really consider myself. Maybe thats what i should be getting curious about. What is one strength I undervalue or overlook? By definition this one seems hard. haha Um. Attention to detail when i choose to use it. I can get really focused.

can you please give me shifting methods for ppl with aphantsia? I know i don’t technically need a method but it helps me

hi angel! ₊˚⊹♡ first of all, i just want to say thank you for sending such a thoughtful question.

and you’re absolutely RIGHT: you don’t need a method to shift, but it’s totally okay to want tools that make you feel supported and confident in intentional shifting! <3

📝✨ [for individuals reading this post: APHANTASIA = when someone can’t visualize images in their mind, like they can’t “see” pictures in their mind’s eye when they try to imagine something. it’s completely okay and DOESN’T LIMIT your ability to shift or manifest at all!]

　 . ★⋆. ࿐࿔　✦　　　.　　. 　 ˚　.ੈ✧̣̇˳·˖

🧁✨ shifting is about state of being and assumption, NOT visuals.

you’re not being tested on your visualization skills. you’re choosing to EMBODY a new reality. you’re not shifting by seeing, you’re shifting by being.

your dominant beliefs and strongest self concept are what tune you into a new reality, not how vivid your mental pictures are.

you could close your eyes and see complete darkness, and still shift flawlessly. why? because it’s the INNER KNOWING that matters most.

　 . ★⋆. ࿐࿔　✦　　　.　　. 　 ˚　.ੈ✧̣̇˳·˖

🧁✨ some method ideas for shifters with aphantasia:

🖋️ SCRIPTING:

write out your desired reality as if it’s ALRADY yours. focus on what you would feel, hear, do, say, and experience, even if you can’t necessarily visualize it in your mind.

♡ for example: “i love having amazing friends! we’ve been friends for as long as i could remember and i ALWAYS leave our hangouts with my heart so full of happiness and gratitude!”

🖋️ AFFIRMATION RAMPAGE:

instead of trying to visualize, literally just AFFIRM OUT LOUD (or in your head) everything you know to be true in the reality you’re shifting to.

♡ for example: “i’m already living in my dream apartment! isn’t it wonderful? i LOVE the view SOOO MUCH, my camera roll is literally filled with photos of it! i have my friends over all the time and they compliment me on it so often!”

🖋️ SENSATION-BASED ANCHORING:

shift by focusing on sensations instead of images.

♡ for example: think about how soft your bed would feel, the feeling of hugging someone in the reality you’re intentionally shifting to, the EXCITEMENT in your chest!

(no need to see it — just feel or describe it emotionally!)

🧁✨ quick REMINDERS for shifters with aphantasia:

⤷ you don’t have to see it to believe it.

⤷ your assumption is stronger than any visuals.

⤷ feeling, knowing, and deciding are enough.

⤷ scripting, affirmations, and sensations are powerful tools.

⤷ shifting is natural and inevitable for you, because you said so.

YOU are the operant power.

your decision, your assumption, your choice is what matters most, and that’s always more powerful than visuals.

trust yourself angel. you’re doing so much better than you think! ✨🫶
