How to Do the Hug Method for Shifting Realities
The Hug method for shifting realities became popular on apps like TikTok, Amino, and Wattpad, and it entails visualizing hugging and talking to a person from your desired reality and reciting affirmations until you wake up in your desired reality.
When compared to other reality-shifting methods, the Hug method is a pretty simple but effective visualization-based technique.
So, if you have difficulty visualizing, here are the best shifting methods you can do without visualization.
Also, while scripting is recommended for shifting using the Raven method, it is not required for the Hug method.

You can, however, write and recite a shifting script every day to imprint in your mind the desired reality you want to experience once you’ve successfully shifted.
Keep on reading to find out how to do the hug method for shifting realities in 5 simple steps.
Step 1: Close your Eyes and Visualize Waking up in your DR.
The first step towards shifting to your desired reality using the Hug method is to find a comfortable position, close your eyes, and start visualizing.
Imagine you have just woken up in your dr bed.
Examine the ceiling, the sheets, and everything else around you. If at all possible, try to concentrate on the smells and feel of the sheet on your skin!
If you have trouble visualizing, as I do, imagine what you would smell, how your sheets and blankets would feel, and what you would hear when you woke up.
Imagine your bed and all the details of your surroundings.
Step 2: Visualize Getting out of Bed and Touching the Floor with your Feet.
The next stepo in the Hug shifting method is to visualize stepping out of bed and putting your feet on the floor.
Visualize how the floor feels beneath your feet. Is it a hard wood? Is it soft carpeting? Is it grass? As you leave your bed, imagine you can feel it under your feet.
Really immerse yourself in this scenario and focus on the feeling
Step 3: Imagine a Person/Character from your DR.
Look around your desired reality and imagine a DR character standing in the middle of it. This character should be someone you admire and adore.
It could be your favorite character, a character you made to go along with your DR, or the DR version of your current reality best friend.
Imagine them in the room with you, either just chilling or looking at you with tears in their eyes.
Now, run towards them and hug them as tightly as you can, remembering how much you missed them and how much you love them.
You should get that fuzzy feeling in your stomach that comes with hugging someone.
Imagine the character’s hair under your fingers, their smell, how their clothes feel, and so on. Remember how much you adore this character.
Focus on that warm fuzzy feeling in the pit of your stomach!
Feel how reassuring it is to finally be with this person. And don’t let go of that warm energy

Step 4: Spend Time with Them and Hug them Goodbye.
The fourth step of the Hug method is to spend some fun time with your DR character.
You could dance, draw, play hide-and-seek, watch a TV show, knit, read, or do anything else you think your character would enjoy!
You can spend as much time as you need with your character for this part.
It is critical that it provides you with positive vibrations.
Spend as much time as you need with them until you are certain that your vibrations are high, that you are confident in yourself, and that the ball of energy is still present and growing.
When you’re finished, hug them goodbye and return to your dr bed without losing focus on your energy ball! Close your eyes and go to bed.

Step 5: Recite Shifting Affirmations until You Fall Asleep.
The fifth and final step of the Hug shifting method is to recite some shifting affirmations until you fall asleep.
Now that we are done with the visualization process, say some affirmations to yourself, either out loud or mentally, in order to relax your mind and fall asleep.
Some examples of shifting affirmations are:
- I will shift.
- I am shifting.
- Shifting comes easy to me.
- I have arrived at my desired reality.
When you wake up, you should be in your desired reality
