  1. To use the Raven Method and shift reality , write a script that describes your ideal world. Then, meditate on details about this Desired Reality for 10-15 minutes.

Turn on some subliminals —like some that tell you how powerful your imagination is—relax in bed, and spread out your arms and legs. Count from 1 to 100. Between each number, say an affirmation like, “I am entering my Desired Reality.” When you sleep, you'll soar off to your ideal world. [1]

    Expert Answer
    Your subconscious mind is the part of your mind that both tells and creates the future—but if you're always changing your mind, your subconscious never knows what you're serious about. In this day and age where everybody types, writing something down is special and out of the norm, and makes an important impression on your mind.
