A guide for Avians

Yet another M-shift guide

Intro To The M-Shift

Before going into the M-Shift, there are a handful of things you need to be warned of/aware of.

First and foremost is that this decision will affect your life for ages to come. Once you do this, it will not go away. It's like a muscle... No matter how much you don't use it, or how thin it becomes, it will always be there. Similarly speaking, the more you work it the stronger it will become. The M-Shift is a PERMANENT decision, and will remain with you until the day you die.

If you intend to say yes to this opportunity, realize that you will never think the same way or be the same person. Your thoughts will forever have a trace of this experience. It will change you. Doing this will kill the person you once were... You are going to die, and be replaced with someone who looks like you and has your memories, but have no mistake... You will be different. Some of you might have done this already, and you might realize you aren't the same person you were a year ago. For some Therians, they do this at too young an age to understand; some of them regret it later. So if you are going to do this, do it wholeheartedly. Do not do it with a trace of doubt.

This will not be the same as M-Shifting into a wolf; you will still essentially be human. You will not be a combination of man and beast, but rather of yourself and what you could be. It will not change you as much as the Therian M-Shift would, but it will change you. You will forever have a part of your mind be Avian, even if you do not follow through with the P-Shift, and it will set you apart from others. You might not connect as you used to, or put up a barrier between yourself and others.
Many here already recognize that simply growing wings will make them a different person, but even this stage of the process will make you different.

The M-Shift is a shift of the mind, and throughout this experience you will combine who you are today with all that you have the potential to be, and in this experience it will hold true to you whether or not this is who you were meant to be, or if this is merely one of the many wrong paths you might step down in your life. You may read this guide, but before delving into this world take this warning into account.

Into The Mind

One of the very first things we must do in any sort of practice similar to this is go into the mind. Particularly for this experience, for the MENTAL-shift, we must evaluate our inner workings. Not only our conscious thoughts, but also our subconscious and more ultimately, who we actually are. If you have anything inside of you, anything at all that isn't 100% for what we are going to do, it either a) won't work, or b) something could go wrong. This ranges anywhere from getting a splitting headache to an irreversible M-Shift into a babbling idiot... So you must must must must must must must must do this first.

Try to evaluate your subconscious not only for the sake of knowing yourself, but also to learn about your subconscious thoughts on the process of growing wings.

There are a handful of exercises to get to know yourself, all of which fall into two categories which I shall entitle... Meditative Learning and Dream Walking.

Meditative Learning is when you delve into your being while you are conscious, through very very deep meditation. It is where you eliminate your words and open yourself truly up, allowing you to do a conscious examination of your subconscious mind.
A very simple exercise for this is as follows:
Put your hands in your lap, take a deep breath, and focus on your heartbeat. Calm it and still it, and think about your essence. All the labels you have come up with, sentences to describe yourself, phrases.... Throw them away. All gone. Don't use words anymore. Now, who you are... Add in your subconscious mind. Your emotions, decisions, feelings that guide you. They have a touch to them, a tangled mass of color, like a ball of yarn. That ball of yarn is you.
