The Powerhouse to Making Positive Changes: Understanding your Subconscious Mind
Having a clear understanding of how your subconscious mind works is exciting news for you, because this is your powerhouse to making positive changes.
Subconscious Mind – The Powerhouse of your Bodily Functions
Your subconscious mind is the part of your mind that is responsible for your involuntary actions. Such as your breathing, beating of your heart, circulation of your blood, effective functioning of all your organs and tissue. It happens automatically without any relevance to your conscious state.
Conscious and Subconscious Mind Working Together
I will be going into more about this in your next lesson, but to give you some insight. An example of your conscious and subconscious mind working together would be if you took to control your breath on intention then this you would know that your conscious mind took charge. Whereas with each breath that you take each day/night is performed by the process of your subconscious mind being in charge.
Emotion and Environment Connection
Your emotions, your feelings and your thoughts are all controlled by your subconscious mind. Therefore, at times for what appears to be no valid reason you will feel afraid, anxious, depressed, or unhappy.
How your Subconscious Mind is Shaped
Your subconscious mind is shaped by your environment, the people in your life, your relationships, the books your read, the movies you watch, the activities you engage in. These all shape the habits that you form, that happen automatically. Developing a clear understanding of the functioning of your conscious and subconscious mind is a key to developing clarity of mind, emotional balance, and emotional resilience. In turn supporting your Physical health and wellbeing.
Benefits of Understanding the Process of your Subconscious Mind
Understanding this process, is your powerhouse for making positive changes. It will help you to take charge of your mind, your thoughts, and your actions. Allowing you to eliminate the unwanted, destructive habits and thoughts, to implementing the positive, constructive habits and thoughts that are in alignment with your core desires and dreams to Create your Life: How you want it to be and NOT PROGRAMMED to be by outside influences that you have not chosen.
Automatic Thoughts and Habits
Some automatic habits are good such as cleaning your teeth each day, getting dressed, going to work, cooking a meal and many more positive ones that you will learn along the way, but there are automatic habits that may be causing you grief such as smoking, anger, jealousy, bitterness, anxiety, depressive thoughts, swearing, drinking, choices of food that you eat and so on. That are not going to serve you will in achieving a Lifetime of Optimal Health, Happiness & Vitality
Your Subconscious is the Home of your Emotions and Habits
Your subconscious mind houses your fears, anxiety, memories, beliefs, and what is real to you. It is known as the Powerhouse of your mind. Because it is so powerful that it can bypass your consciousness to channel the course of your life. This is why it is vital for you to learn how to take charge of your subconscious mind. It is with understanding the connection between conscious and unconscious mind, how this affects your thoughts, feelings and actions, that define your habits, in your current or present reality.
Getting a Clear Picture of your Subconscious Mind
The simplest way to have a clearer picture of your subconscious mind is to see it as your very own computer hard drive with you being the programmer. You have this computer, and it is stored with a myriad of great and not so great information. As the programmer you go about deleting the information, files etc that are not relevant to you or that may even be harmful to your computer. This is where affirmations and daily inspirational quotes are helpful. Notice how I say helpful as there needs to be a level of commitment and action to go with the affirmation also to engage your conscious mind to accept and act on the changes.
To go about changing limiting beliefs is to convince your conscious mind in a logical sense to accept these changes with the reasons why they are important to you.
This is what is meant when you hear time and time again
“Change your Thoughts and you will Change your Life”. BUT HOW?
