TikTok’s #RealityShifting trend is everywhere — scripting, the Raven Method, “desired realities,” even Hogwarts. Millions are trying to shift. But what’s really happening?
In this episode of Lucid Journeys, we dive into why this trend resonates so strongly, the very real human longing behind it, and how Phillip Ashling’s story from Waking Up in a Dream offers a missing piece.
We’re not here to critique TikTok — shifting is already magical. Phillip’s journey simply shows another layer: how lucidity, awareness, and guidance can make the experience deeper, more empowering, and more real.
✨ Quick note: examples like “waking up with a sunburn from a dream” or “green tongue from a dream ice pop” are fantasy metaphors from the Phillip Ashling novel, not real-world reports. They’re powerful storytelling devices — and brilliant ways to imagine how dream and waking layers might interact.
🎧 Join us as we explore what TikTok reality shifting gets right, where pitfalls may lurk, and how Phillip’s approach points toward a grounded, magical path of expansion.

Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders
Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders takes you back to 1983, when two teenagers were found murdered, execution-style, on a quiet Texas hill. What followed was decades of rumors, false leads, and a case that law enforcement could never seem to close. Now, veteran investigative journalist M. William Phelps reopens the file — uncovering new witnesses, hidden evidence, and a shocking web of deaths that may all be connected. Over nine gripping episodes, Paper Ghosts: The Texas Teen Murders unravels a story 42 years in the making… and asks the question: who’s really been hiding the truth?
