Mastering The Subconscious Mind
With Creative Visualization
Learning to influence
your Subconscious Mind can
have numerous benefits on your life - allowing you to become more
confident, happier & successful.
One of the key features of Creative Visualization is the
profound impact it has on your subconscious mind. Visualization is
perhaps the fastest way to
directly influence the subconscious, particularly when producing Alpha
Brainwaves using the Creative
Visualization MP3.
So… what exactly is
the subconscious mind? And why should you invest the time in
nurturing the relationship between your conscious and subconscious mind?
This comprehensive article
will explain all… and show you how
to do it..
The Subconscious Mind
Your subconscious mind is the part of your brain which does everything you are not conscious of -
everything from accessing memories to tying your shoelaces.
The subconscious is an incredibly
powerful entity, which can run thousands of essential tasks
automatically; & at the same time.
It pumps blood to
your heart, blinks your eyes, digests your food, regulates your blood
pressure, controls your heart-rate… and
so much more.
Your subconscious also provides you with new thoughts & ideas, helps you
make new discoveries, and creates new
forms. All "insights" and "ah ha" moments originate from the
subconscious mind. It is a storehouse of creativity and potentiality.
A good analogy
for the mind is that of an iceberg.
The tip of the iceberg, visible over the water, is the conscious mind.
We'd be forgiven for forgetting that there's anything else there at all
- it's so easy to be consumed by "what's going on" inside our heads.
The subconscious mind, however, is the 90%
of the iceberg which is hidden
underwater … but which possesses
the majority of resources
and power.
STOP for a moment to dwell on the fact that you have access to unlimited power - you just
gotta learn how to harness it.
The Power of the Subconscious Mind
According to Dr Joseph Murphy, author of the
multi-million selling The Power of
Your Subconscious Mind, the pros don't stop there:
"Within
your subconscious depths lie infinite
wisdom,
infinite power and
an infinite supply of all that
is necessary"
Carl Jung also believed that there was such a thing as the "Collective Unconscious" - a place
where EVERY PERSON's subconscious mind was in connection with one
another. This was the source of new
ideas & breakthroughs, Jung argued.
Others
believe in the subconscious provides a direct
link to "Infinite Intelligence" - i.e. the "energy" that powers
the universe - i.e. God. Check out Think
& Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill for a good explanation of this.
Famous thinkers like Einstein &
Edison believed this to be the case, too, which ups the
credibility further in my eyes.
A
further argument suggests that you cannot succeed in any endeavour
until your subconscious mind believes that you will.
NOTE: A great way
to influence your subconscious mind
is creative visualization - particularly in Alpha
Brainwaves. If you don't want to learn how to do this (i.e. learn how to meditate), you
can read my review of the Creative
Visualization MP3, which does this naturally for you. It feels
relaxing & exciting, too.
Your Subconscious Creates Your Experience
Following on from the last point, it can be (under)stated that your subconscious
mind has an enormous impact on
your experience of life.
As Dr Murphy stated:
" All your experiences, events, conditions, and acts are
produced by
your subconscious mind in reaction to your
thoughts. Remember, it is
not the thing believed in, but the
belief in your own mind that brings
about the results"
In other words, whatever you think about habitually
makes its way down to your subconscious mind. And what you believe at a
subconscious level has a dramatic
impact on everything that happens to you!
This can be
summarised succinctly as, "the world
within creates the world without"
The impact of this statement should not be undermined, although it can
be difficult to appreciate how profound it is at first glance.
Effectively, to put it another way, you
can change your experience of life by changing what you think & believe.
This is another way of looking at The
Law of Attraction.
The Subconscious Takes Orders From YOU
Believe it or not, your subconscious mind actually takes orders directly from your
conscious mind (i.e. "the voice in your head").
As Dr Murphy puts it:
"Your
conscious mind is the Captain of the ship.
Your subconscious
mind
takes the orders you give it, based upon what your
conscious
mind
believes and accepts as true. It does not question the orders."
In
other words, if you are experiencing less than you desire from life, it
is because you
have created those circumstances yourself, by your own negative &
disempowering thoughts & beliefs. Sorry it that seems harsh.
You see, when you worry about
"what could go wrong", you are inadvertently
sending the wrong targets to your subconscious!
You're telling it to go and get what you're thinking about - & when
you couple this with a strong emotion of anxiety, it rushes to those
bad circumstances your reality! D'oh.
Conversely,
to improve your results, you simply give your subconscious mind better
orders!
As Ralph Waldo Emerson wisely & profoundly noted, "Man is what he thinks
about all day long".
How NOT to change Your Subconscious
The least effective way
to change your subconscious programming is with "positive thinking".
This can be defined simply as replacing negative thoughts with more
empowering ones.
One
problem is that this is exhausting, time-consuming, and ultimately...
quite ineffective.
But more importantly, your subconscious
mind "speaks a different language" to your conscious mind. It understands pictures, symbols & emotions
much better than it understands words.
You
wouldn't speak Italian to someone who was Spanish, would you? So don't
try to overwhelm the subconscious mind with "Italian", when all it
wants is Espanol :)
To fast-track the process of change, we must speak to
the subconscious in the language it is fluent in - and that's where
creative visualization comes in.
It's all about pictures, symbols & emotions - Boom.
Becoming Fluent With Your Subconscious Mind
Creative Visualization really seems to be the ultimate tool for creating
subconscious changes.
Why? Well, here's a few reasons:
First, you typically produce Alpha
Brainwaves when you visualise, known to be the "backdoor" to the subconscious mind.
Simply put, you are in the best possible "state of mind" to make
changes at an unconscious level.
Secondly, when you
create vivid images inside your imagination, you are providing a very clear "target" to
your subconscious. It then works on this target without conscious
effort!
Thirdly, by
creating strong, positive emotions, you make an even deeper impression on your subconscious.
The more realistic the emotions, the better results you'll see... and
the better you'll feel all day.
What To Do NEXT
The
most important thing to do - if you want to influence your subconscious
to bring you more happiness, peace & success - is start a visualization practice. Just
a few minutes a day will initiate changes at a subconscious level.
You can learn
how to visualize here. Within a few weeks you will almost certainly
feel profoundly different.
Just commit to giving it a try - to see what you are actually capable
of!
By using the Creative
Visualization MP3, you are guaranteed
to enter Alpha Brainwaves every time - making the subconscious
changes easier, faster and more profound. You'll also find it a lot easier to relax & create vivid
pictures.
Master The Subconscious Mind & Belief Systems
If you
feel like you need a rather extreme overhaul of your subconscious beliefs,
a great program I use is Bob Proctor's 11 Forgotten Laws.
It's a collection of 11 Lectures on Success, lasting maybe 7 hours or
so in all. There's also books, videos & other "extras" to help you
dramatically change your mindset.
Simply by listening regularly to these MP3s, you will
adopt new, empowering beliefs - and put yourself in the best possible
situation for wealth and success. You can catch an inside
look here. As I said, I listen to this often - most days in fact.
