The Friend 2.0 Method
Step 1) Talk to your comfort character from your DR like it is your friend. Like you're hanging out with them and just talking for a while..
NOTES ABOUT THIS METHOD THAT SHE DOES
She said that she drives a lot to work, home, friend's houses, etc. So while she is driving alone in her car, she pretends that she is talking with Draco from Harry Potter and pretends that he is a passenger in her car.
She will talk to him about her day, friends, (that are all from her CR). She will do this for a while and slowly transition to her DR.
For her CR, she always uses present and past tense. For her DR, she uses future tense because she hasn't experienced it yet. But she wants it to, so she talks about it like it has already happened.
Obviously, she doesn't want to talk about her CR (so that's why it's in the past thing).
She also does this method a lot when she goes into stores, she will put on her headphones and pretend that she is talking to someone on her phone by putting her phone to her ear.
She said that if the name of the person from her DR that she is talking to is either named Draco or Hermione, then she WON'T say their name outloud.
But if it's a simple name like Cedric or Steve, Tony, and Peter (from her Marvel DR), then she will say their names outloud and keep on talking to them.
Past and present tense= your CR Future tense= your DR
She said that this is like a pre-method. Because you're not going to shift right then and there in front of them.
For the actual method this is what you will do when you actually attempt to shift:
This method is extremely loose. She likes to do it, while laying down. But you can do it however you want to and whatever makes it comfortable for you. You can even change it to an awake method, whatever is up to you.
And this method does not require visualization. But you can visualize if you want to.
At night whenever you are done doing whatever it is you were doing... before you go to sleep, you are going to talk to your comfort character again.
HOW SHE DOES THIS METHOD:
Step 1) She says she gets ready, gets into bed. Then she doesn't continue talking outloud, she mostly whispers it to herself.
Step 2) Then she visualizes everything. She starts talking about her CR and what's going to happen the following day. It's basically a sleepover.
Step 3) Then you're going to keep on visualizing and thinking about your DR, then you will shift.
