Sounds like a good idea. Anything that works for you is a valid technique!

You could develop the technique into even more things, maybe have more pills? Have them all color coded, and each one will do a different thing. It can act as a good way to teach yourself transformation, or as a good way to grant yourself powers in a way that seems logical to your mind. Cause and effect, that kind of thing.

Glad to hear you've managed to think up your own techniques, keep up the originality!
