Most of
us are aware of the existence of a “subconscious” mind — but we don’t
necessarily know what it is, what it does or how we master it. The truth is,
your subconscious mind power is an amazing ally when
you master it, yet if it stays untamed, it can drive the direction of your life
in undesirable ways.
What Is The Subconscious Mind?
The
subconscious mind is not imaginary. It is very real, and an integral part of
you, it can help you on how to unlock your power. It is very much like a
supercomputer that is in place to help you create your life experience.
Throughout
your life, you have programmed your subconscious with thought habits and
beliefs. Just like any of your other habits, the thoughts that you have
repeated to yourself have become habits. There’s no difference between a habit
such as the sequence of actions you use to tie your shoes and the habit of
thinking about yourself in a certain way.
The Power of Repetition
Repetition
creates habit. These mental habits are combined with things you have
heard from people important to you (such as your parents) and your own personal
experiences to form an incredibly complex network of beliefs that help you
understand and negotiate the world.
The
subconscious mind doesn’t do any creative thinking. That’s not its job.
It cannot
distinguish between what is “imaginary” and what is “real.” Any thought you
repeat over and over, and any visual image you create and hold in
your mind over and over are examples of the “operating system” that you program
into your subconscious mind.
Its job
is to store, organize, and interpret data from your predominant thoughts. Its job is to attract or help
you create the circumstances that match the images and thoughts you have
imprinted in it, and
automate much of your behaviors and thought patterns.
Pretty
powerful, when you think about it!
The
problem is, a lot of what has been imprinted or programmed into the
subconscious mind could be called “faulty programming.”
Examples
of faulty programming are thought habits like telling yourself that you can’t
do something, can’t have something, don’t deserve something, etc. When you
repeat these often enough, to the point where they become part of your programming, you
can’t help but create situations in your life that validate and express what
you hold in your subconscious mind.
The conscious
mind is the programmer. It’s the thinking mind, the creative mind.
However… the conscious mind is influenced by filters that your predominant
thoughts have created and stored in the subconscious.
The
subconscious mind, just like a computer, does not judge or discriminate between
what can and cannot be achieved or obtained. However, the conscious mind
evaluates a situation and says, “you can’t do this or have that” based on the
programming in place within the subconscious!
As you
can see, it can be a vicious circle.
When you
learn to master your conscious mind, and imprint the RIGHT programming into the
subconscious, you will be absolutely unstoppable.
You will
then have full control of the subconscious mind’s incredible powers to make you
aware of opportunities, people, resources, and situations that you need in
order to have or do something, and it will make your actions effortless and
natural.
Beginnings Of Mastery
Physical
reality, as well as your thoughts and emotions, are nothing
but vibrations of energy. Energy “packets” called quanta can behave
in any way that they are influenced by other quanta. This basically means that
the energy of your thoughts can, and does, influence matter. What
you focus on (your predominant thoughts) is what you attract.
So think
about your inner speech. What does your mind fear?
What
does it believe?
What do
you tell yourself, day in and day out?
What
does your mind do when you introduce a new idea that is in conflict with your
subconscious programming?
Most of
the time, we are not aware of our inner speech. We go through our days on
autopilot — most of our actions and speech patterns are nothing but
regurgitated data stored in the subconscious. Yes, it makes life easier.
Imagine how hard it would be to think about how to tie your shoes every time
you had to do it. It’s a lot of mental effort that has become automated!
Directing Your Subconscious Through Exercises
Awareness of
your inner speech gives you the information you need to master your mind.
If your
circumstances are not to your liking, it’s because you have been thinking and
feeling in a way that has pointed your mind in a certain direction, and that is
where your life is headed! So when you become aware of the nature of your inner
speech, you can imprint new
programming and totally change the direction of your life.
It can
be humbling, but exciting at the same time, to realize just how powerful your
thoughts are at manifesting your circumstances! The subconscious mind
operates on HABIT.
So by
imprinting positive, optimistic, “can-do” thoughts over and over until they
become habits, you will replace the old habits and create neural pathways based
on positive “I can be/do/have…” thinking.
Change comes
from within. You can change jobs, end relationships, move, but unless
you “change your mind” from within, you’ll just attract more of the same. Or
your changes will be temporary at best. It will be “same stuff, different face
or location or job…”
Meditation
is the best way to become attuned to your inner world and the images you paint.
A
daily meditation practice can transform your life,
as you become aware of this inner world, master your mind and reprogram your
dominant thoughts. You might be amazed at how many thoughts you habitually
think are actually driving you away from what you want. But by daily practice,
you can imprint the right programming.
Then, you’ll
notice synchronicity everywhere. Life will become incredibly fun as
your outer world becomes a mirror for the new awesomeness you hold in your
inner world!
