Understanding how your mind works is enormously important for helping you reach your goals faster. Even more importantly; Your subconscious beliefs are likely to be the primary reason you're not achieving everything you desire in life.
So let's explore further how the mind works.
The mind is composed of the conscious and the subconscious. The conscious part of your mind is the seat of logic and reason. The subconscious mind is the seat of habits and behavior. But the subconscious is the true powerhouse of the two.
Your conscious mind (logic and reason) doesn't become fully formed until you are about seven. Beliefs are formed through the mirroring you received from your parents, family members, school, and television ? all your life experiences. Not surprisingly, you grow up thinking of these beliefs as ultimate truth. Some of these beliefs then will be positive and some negative.
The mind is very much like a computer ? it runs from the data that is entered. The computer doesn't question the logic or reason of the data, it just responds. Your subconscious mind does not question what has been inputted either. Your unconscious mind has been programmed since birth, and it will continue to run on these programmed beliefs until you change them.
Your unconscious mind is something like 88% of your total mental power. It is much more powerful than the logical, conscious part. Think of your unconscious mind as big, dumb, and extremely powerful.
On the other hand, your conscious mind functions from logic and reason. Though this part is only 12% of your mental power, you can direct your thinking to help your subconscious mind create healthy and value-creating beliefs.
Once your subconscious mind is programmed, you attract experiences and people into your life in accordance with the beliefs you hold. Thoughts, being energy, vibrate at certain rates of speed, and those vibrations attract like vibrations. You actually subconsciously draw into your experience that which you hold to be true. Remember this can be positive or negative, and can be directly in opposition to what you believe consciously!
So, by changing unwanted and limiting beliefs subconsciously you can create a much fuller life.
You can recognize what you subconsciously believe by what you think to your self over and over and what is really present in your life.
For example, if you say you want to lose weight and over a lengthy period of time never do much about it, well your subconscious beliefs are keeping you from your goal.
Some ways to change subconscious beliefs are, through affirmations, dreams, NLP and Hypnosis and journaling.
Thus this is the reason why I focus so heavily on changing the subconscious belief system. I passionately believe that the key to making long-term changes in our lives requires changing our beliefs on a subconscious level.
I hope this brings to light how important it is for you to know more about how your mind works!
The Power Of The Mind
Throughout the thousands of years after Enlightenment, man has realised that the power of thought and intellect are powers beyond anything that the physical can bestow. A man may be strong but a man with a powerful mind may yet outwit him. Take that rhetoric and fast forward it to the current century and you have another idea - unleash the power of the mind through concentration and entrainment. All your goals and successes can be reached once you figure out how to be smarter, faster and happier at all times.
The brain box atop your head is primary in controlling everything about you; using electrical impulses and the release of chemical reactions within the cerebrum to determine your daily physical and emotional functions. Now, the brain releases frequencies called brain waves that determine how well you do something and what you are capable of during your different states of wakefulness, sleep and near sleep. Scientists range them from the alpha waves all the way to the theta waves. Each of them are represented by frequency ranges that can go as low as below 1Hz and as high as 38Hz. They have been linked to states of heightened mental abilities, mental focus, relaxation, stress relief, super learning abilities and even patterns that are ideal for healing.
Now imagine if you can focus this power and call upon it any time you want. Brainwave entrainment is just that, using scientific or more traditional methods to relax the mind and trigger the brain to give off exact electromagnetic frequencies. Have a big exam the next day and can't seem to remember anything? Then call upon the alpha waves that is familiar to the brain just before or after sleep and you can activate your super learning capabilities.
Is stress raising your blood pressure to unacceptable levels and you need to find your place of Zen and total relaxation? Then find a quiet place and call upon the exact wave frequencies in your cortical (in the brain) and put yourself into a deep trancelike state where the body heals and relaxes. Got a big project and need to inject some creativity into your campaign? Well there are always the low theta waves to help you with your creative visualisation.
The amount of research done into this area of personal development and mental focus and release is gargantuan and the effects simply Olympian. Technology like magnetic fields given off by specially made machines or even binaural beats; engineered sound frequencies delivered into the lobe of the brain to invoke a specific pattern response - are just some of the examples of what you can use to get the benefits of brain entrainment. Already far afield in the medical industry and used to treat general illnesses, make healing faster and improve conditions that afflict the mind, imagine what you can do with this application for the purpose of self improvement. Don't wait, unleash the power of the mind with entrainment and live a better and brighter life.
