Rhea and Seraphina's progress report

[Tewi]

Are you sure the brightness wasn't from having had your eyes closed, lol? Otherwise when we first switched, we were easily mesmerized by the senses, with textures being interesting to look at, like we were seeing them for the first time, if that's at all similar (Also, not a universal experience)

 

I would say to focus less on "your" consciousness (as that's the brain's, it can't go anywhere, it is simply utilized/plugged-into primarily by the current fronter), and focus more on positioning yourself as a tulpa, whatever that entails to you. Your state should match how your tulpa normally is (temporarily with no one fully fronting, though you'll easily snap back into the front or influence accidental "front" thoughts until the switch is done), which means having no particular personal attachment to the body's consciousness, simply existing inside it as your tulpa does. Then your tulpa can take your normal place as being the one "plugged into"/"using" the brain's consciousness, and it should be them who opens their eyes to see the world.

Maybe that was it ^^; I'm not sure, our eyes had been closed for some time. I'm probably overthinking things as I tend to do^^;

Thank you so much for the advice! I think I sort of am starting to understand it. Whenever her presence takes more space, or whatever it is that's happening in those moments, the few times it's actually happened, I guess it feels kinda like... putting a different lens on a camera maybe? There's definitely no lapse in consciousness, it just feels like the brain is just... mostly her. And I'm still there, I'm just.. not the one doing the thinking, I guess? Am I just imagining things?^^;

 

I'm probably overthinking things again^^;

Either way I really appreciate your advice and we'll definitely try to put it into practice next time we attempt this.

I don't have any advice, I just wanted to say I'm glad it's starting to work already. Even if it's only a little bit. 😊  I hope it works out soon so Sera can play video games. 😄

Thank you so much for the encouragement!
