As a big potterhead, I finally decided to try the Raven method, but i didn't write a script, I didn't think I was gonna shift for the first time anyway so I just recalled details like my appearance, my relations and my Hogwarts House, etc and started counting and saying affirmations. When I reached 36, I began to feel dizzy and saw some white blotches and then my head started spinning and I got scared and opened my eyes straight away and sat up and for full 5 minutes, my head was constantly spinning and then it got better. But now I'm losing my motivation to shift because I don't want to feel uncomfortable like that.
This was my first ever shifting experience so any advice would be nice :)
