We often make SATS much more complicated than it needs to be. SATS is extremely simple.
Get comfortable, relax until you're drowsy, and imagine a short scene that implies your desire is already fulfilled. Experience it from first person. If your attention wanders, simply bring it back.
That's it.
You don't need perfect visualization, intense emotion, or some mystical trance.
Also, stop telling yourself that you "can't do SATS" or "can't control your attention." You've been repeating that assumption about yourself for years. Don't continue reinforcing the limitation you want to overcome.
Neville actually gave exercises for developing these faculties. One is to review your entire day backwards before sleep.
Start with getting into bed and reconstruct the day event by event in reverse until you reach getting out of bed that morning. Neville compared attention to a muscle that develops through exercise.
Another thing you can practice, which I believe helped me a lot with vividness and control of my imagination, is what Neville described as bilocation in imagination.
Sit somewhere physically, close your eyes, and imagine that you are somewhere else. Don't merely picture the other room or location as though you're looking at a photograph. Mentally place yourself there. See the room from the position you would occupy, feel nearby objects, hear what you would hear, and experience your physical location as being elsewhere.
You can practice with something extremely simple. Sit in your bedroom and imagine you're standing in your kitchen. See the kitchen from your own eyes. Feel the counter. Open a cabinet. Hear the refrigerator. Then return.
These are exercises. You don't have to be amazing at them immediately. If your attention wanders, return it. If the sensory experience is weak, keep practicing the returns are worth it.
I have manifested many big things and countless small things.
It makes life a fun game when you master this.
Keep SATS simple. Train your attention. Practice occupying another location imaginatively. Stop assuming you're bad at it. Your imaginative faculty becomes more disciplined through use.
Are there any exercises one can do to master SATS? : r/NevilleGoddard
