M-shiftBefore you all attack me and say that wings arent shifting, i know this. this is simply a guide on how to get into the avian mindset and how it will severely help with wing growth, thus being a mental shift.
First we have to ask ourselves an important question.
What do Avians do?
Well, we know a lot already. They fly. They preen their wings, They bathe like us and eat like us, they just have wings. They can't drive, or go grocery shopping, or go to a nightclub or a convention. Knowing what is restricted by wings and knowing what you can still do is a good first step.
Then, how do avians function with these things?Watch birds. When they're cold, their feathers fluff up. When they're nervous, their feathers flatten and they become wide eyed. When they're defending their territory, they call out and hunch down, ready to fight. When they're happy, their wings and feathers are lax.
Your wings will be doing much of the same things. When you're cold you will be fluffing up and wrapping them around you the best you can. When you're scared and ready for flight at an instant they will flatten and prepare to take off. When you're lax they will relax as well. When you're flustered they will fluff up. When you're flirtatious they may spread themselves and fluff up to appear larger and ergo more attractive.
All of these things will happen naturally, but your brain needs to adapt to them, as of right now, it knows this, but cannot excersize it. This is where the next step comes in.
Visualisation and Phantom sensations
This is the next biggest part. You must know what wings will look like, how big they will be, etc. If you've had a life with wings before, your ephemeral self and soul knows what you should have and what it will grow, but your brain still needs reassurance.
Whenever you can, visualise yourself with your wings and try to phantom shift them on. This may be difficult in a small room or where your feathers would drag (as i have the biggest difficulty ph shifting indoors!) but you can still try. Unless you have permanent phantom wings, you will be visualising them responding to situations, rather than feeling them all the time. I like to do this by visualising them wheneved i can. During or after tests, during school work, driving, walking, etc. Visualise yourself doing all kinds of things, flying sitting preening showing aggression or showing affection, whatever you must to feel as if they are already there and real.
This makes your brain realise that they are there and they must be grown. Meditation can help with this as well.
The Flock effect
Have you ever noticed that your wings seem to grow better in a flock, or when you talk about them with others? This is due to what I call the flock effect. When you're surrounded by like minded people, all striving for the same goal and sharing progress, and those with positivity and light and the mindset that you share, your mind is quicker to allow these changes to happen. You're accepted.
In the outside world where wings are unheard of and many would call you gullible, delusional, or insane, your brain takes these cues and thinks that wings are not good. Your mind will start to reject them because there isn't acceptance. Why would your mind be positive about something that could cost you your life?
Being in a flock or even with spirits or your own internal dialogue, the flock effect reminds your brain that this change is okay and that there are others who want to see you succeed.
The flock effect sometimes can be avoided or disregarded when the desire is so strong you disregard the potential dangers. This rejection of fear allows the brain to bravely know that you need your wings and that you will do anything to have them, this allows for the lack of a supportive environment to not matter. This can be a difficult feat however.
Overall, there are other methods on how to get your mind into the wing growing mindset. I have found that the combination of visualisation, flock effect, and phantom shifting has been the most beneficial to me when i add in daily prayer, spells, and rituals. Carving your own path is beneficial.

Diet
so, as you all know, (at least i'm assuming you do) diet is an important part of not only keeping up your overall health and brain functions, but it will also help your process for wing growth.
i know that for some this knowledge is hard to come by, or whatever the reason may be i don't care. because hopefully, i will be able to help that by sharing my knowledge that my mom gives me for diets. (i am in no way calling anyone stupid for not knowing what to eat. it's entirely not your fault unless you deliberately refuse to eat right, in which case i cannot stop you from doing so.)
we all know that breakfast is important right? so what i do, is i mix a salad together with assorted lettuce (no iceberg lettuce. it's just crispy water you can grow in some dirt and spit). sprinkle some cheese, put some chopped up ham from the delly isle, some red pepper (or green pepper), and black, blue, and raspberries. sometimes a dressing but not usually.
i also have a mineral mix my mom gave me called tangy tangerine. you just put water in a cup, put a table spoon of the orange powder in and mix. use a plastic utensil to mix because metal ruins the quality. i don't know how or why but that's what my mom said. that's it!
