Learn to Harness the Power of the Subconscious Mind

By Jean D Kerr

Your subconscious mind is easily the most powerful force on the planet and it shouldn't be underestimated. Everything you do or say or think begins in your mind. When you can tap the power of the subconscious, that power can be manifested to your conscious mind.

Many of us move through our day on auto-pilot. We complete tasks by rote without even thinking about why we're doing those things. Those actions are sub-conscious actions. A basic example of this is wondering what's on TV. You think about it and then reach for the remote. This is a conscious action. But have you ever just switched channels without even thinking about it? This is a sub-conscious reaction.

Your subconscious mind creates reactions within you that make you do the things you do. When you consciously take action to complete a task or do something you want to get done, that thought process originated within your subconscious mind. Imagine what you could achieve if you had the power to direct your subconscious mind to generate conscious actions within yourself that helped you fulfill all the things you dreamed.

Learning to properly harness to the power of your subconscious mind can mean living up to the true potential inherent within you. Allowing your own thoughts to feed your subconscious mind can mean the difference between living in fear and living the life you dreamed.

So we need to communicate with our subconscious mind to improve our lives. Many people feel that this is too complicated a task to undergo, but really it is simplicity itself by following a few simple steps. Just accept that Self improvement has to start with 'thinking' about it first.

The simplest as best known way of communicating with the subconscious mind is by using affirmations. This is basically a constant repetition of positive words.

For example, if someone needed to complete a daunting task they were not truly inclined to become involved with, they might feel a deep tired feeling come over them. This is simple a stress response to the scenario that saps a person of the vital energy needed to complete the task. That is to say, it is a mental response to what would appear to be a boorish task. Through affirmation, however, one can completely overcome this state of mind and approach the task in a much better manner.

Affirmations are those mental reminders and assertions of the positive things you want to achieve and want to become. Learning to use affirmations to help you achieve the things you want in life can increase your motivation and your focus in a positive way.

You're also able to change your habits through use of affirmations. You might want to stop smoking or learn to stop overeating or even feel more motivated about exercising more regularly. These affirmations confirm the things you want to your subconscious, which then creates the impulses that remind your conscious mind of the things you should be doing.

There are alternative ways to harness the power of your subconscious mind. Post hypnotic suggestion is perhaps the most common, usually conducted by a qualified hypnotherapist, although self-hypnosis through meditation or recorded audio presentations have positive benefits as well.

There is also a relatively new process known as brainwave synchronization or binaural beats, which involves listening to special sound frequencies with headphones. The frequencies are very slightly different in each ear which results in the synchronisation of the two hemispheres of the brain. This puts you almost instantly into a deep meditative state which allows your 'conscious self' to communicate with your subconscious mind.

Complete mastery of your subconscious mind's power takes years of training, as shown by highly trained Buddhist monks. They are able to display amazing abilities through mastering and controlling their subconscious power so that it manifests through their conscious minds. Things like levitation or breaking solid objects without pain or injury.

Understanding how you can create the life you dreamed of or the relationship you desire or even that ideal job you always wanted has been made a little easier through films and books like The Secret'. Often called the Law of Attraction, this theory shows how learning to control the power within your own mind can manifest those things you want most.

More traditional sciences, such as quantum physics, are beginning to recognize the significance of the power many ancient civilizations accessed by understanding their own subconscious minds. The ability to alter and influence your own reality comes from tapping the power within yourself.

The power within your subconscious mind is much bigger than the majority of people understand. Learning to tap into and harness this power positively can seriously open your eyes to the amazing new life that awaits you. - 31877
