We have learned that the subconscious mind acquires knowledge through repetition, not by logic. We also know that it will respond to impressions, suggestions, desires, expectations, and directions coming from the conscious mind provided that they are interfacing as these directions are being made. Lastly, we have also learned that for this to occur, the mind must be in a meditative state, calm and poised.
This meditative condition is also referred to as the Alpha state. Alpha is one of several electrical brainwave rhythms that are emitted by human beings. These brainwave rhythms are measured via an Electroencephalogram or EEG. Alpha rhythms are 8 to 12 cycles per second (cps). The other brainwave rhythms are Beta, 13 to 30 cps; Delta, 0.05 to 3 cps; and Theta, 4 to 7 cps.
A number of companies specialize in the area of deep brain stimulation. The theory behind this is that when the mind is in a deep meditative state, when it is relaxed and when the usual defenses are down, the subconscious mind is more malleable and, thus, more open to reprogramming. This procedure is used in combination with sealed flotation tanks, magnetic fields, and sound frequencies for cortical stimulation.
The same technology has been applied into finding cures for such illnesses as Parkinson's disease, amnesia, and dementia. It has also been thoroughly researched and applied as an aid in hastening the recovery and promoting the well-being of chronic patients.
It is important to train the subconscious mind because of the fact that it is susceptible to both positive and negative thoughts. When the subconscious is not trained to focus on positive thoughts, there is a risk that negative thoughts will infiltrate into it. Thereby ensuring that these negative thoughts become reality.
Following are some techniques that can be utilized to harness the power of the subconscious mind:
Affirmations. "I feel great." "Today is light and easy." "It's getting better and better everyday." These statements or variations of them need be consistently but gently repeated to oneself. It doesn't matter if they are said out loud or quietly. There is a need focus all your attention on the affirmation while excluding any other distractions or random thoughts. These affirmation needs to be repeated for five minutes on a daily basis. The change might not come immediately but it will affect the way you feel as the day progress.
Aside from the daily repetition of affirmations, these can also be written down. This technique will also imprint their importance within your subconscious. An additional benefit is that you will have a list available within easy reach, which will also remind you to think of positive thoughts. A self-recorded tape of affirmations can also work for some people. Some will identify a role model they would like to emulate and include those traits in their positive affirmations. This method also gives you a concrete goal to work towards.
Visualization. This is a methodology that has been proven effective in helping people change habits or achieve goals. The idea behind it is to visualize what you want. The technique involves relaxation exercises coupled with positive imaging. The process works because the human mind experiences reality and visualization in the same manner. It is incapable of distinguishing between what is real or not.
When you have visualized what you want via your subconscious, you will be able to easily recognize an opportunity when it presents itself.
Visualization must be done on a daily basis. The more you practice the technique, the easier it becomes. You need to visualize for at least five minutes daily.
It is important to have your end point clearly mapped out in your mind when visualizing. Strong feelings should also be associated with the scene being visualized in order to increase its intensity. The rule is: The more intense the associated feeling, the more effective the visualization.
There are a number of visualization techniques that are currently available. Some simply use their imagination and play scenes in their minds. Some people collect pictures of things they want, put them into an album or a collage, which they then look at when doing their daily visualizations. Some make what are called mind movies or simply download them from the Internet.
Feeling Good. Good results can come from simply focusing on feeling good. When we feel great, great things happen. This is not simple coincidence. The truth is our life is a reflection of how we feel.
A final word: To fully and effectively harness the power of the subconscious mind, one needs to have patience. This is unfortunate because today's society is full of people who demand instant gratification.
Keep in mind that when we don't trust and accept that things have a way of working out in the end, we actually get slowed down. We get distracted and even end up on the wrong track.
Remember that success does not happen overnight.
