PROGRAMMING THE SUBCONSCIOUS/EMOTIONAL MIND (THREAD)

Your subconcious doesn't know the difference between wrong or right, good or bad.

It just listens + internalises.

Visualisation/affirmations can have a tangible effect on your mind, body and mental state.

Perform an audit on your self talk - the things you say to yourself, OR things you say about yourself to other people.

Chances are you are repeating a story about yourself which in turn is programming your subconscious mind, possibly sabotaging you.

e.g.
"I'm lazy"
"I can't exercise"
"I'm bad with girls"
"I'm worthless"

OR
"I'm the best"
"I can't be beaten"
"I'm gonna beat this illness/injury QUICK"

ALL have an affect on your emotional subconscious mind, if you repeat them often enough.

5 Things that might be subtly programming you

identifying with a group or a parent
a person in position of power/celebrity
repetition (of self talk)
a highly emotional moment
hypnosis

BE CONSCIOUS AND AWARE OF THESE

If something is created in the emotional mind, you cannot 'logic' and reason yourself out of that emotional issue.

This is why hypnosis is used to heal trauma or addictions, when 'logically' otherwise people know that a habit is bad for them

PLACEBO EFFECT

The placebo effect is evidence of your body's ability to affect change through nothing more than belief

You might as well consciously plan out what you want your subconscious mind to believe and reap the benefits of this

Before bed and just as you wake up, the brain is in most suggestable and programmable state (to do with the types of brainwave activity occurring at this time.

Take advantage of this by using this time to tell yourself that you can achieve anything you set your mind to.

VISUALISATION AFFECTS STRENGTH/MUSCLE GAINS

Because your subconscious mind responds in this way, it is possible to VISUALISE yourself to improvement, without having to actually do that thing

A study tested whether mental training alone can produce a gain in muscular strength.

30 athletes were given no training, physical training or mental training. The hip strength of each group was measured before and after training. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/241603526_Mind_Over_Matter_Mental_Training_Increases_Physical_Strength

RESULTS:

Physical strength was INCREASED by 24% through mental training alone (participants were asked to rehearse a motor or cognitive skill by using mental imagery of themselves performing it successfully).

VISUALISE YOURSELF WINNING = YOU WIN MORE

MEDITATION EFFECT ON SUBCONSCIOUS

If you have been going from task to task all day, to the point where you havent allowed your brain to process thoughts, you will end up thinking of all your bad events and sorting your life in this period before sleep = you will manifest stress

Make sure to perform a self reflective activity like meditation or journaling during the day to give your brain time to sort through these 'open browser tabs' in your brain.

I hope this opened your eyes to the capacity and potential of the human mind and body to be affected by subconscious programming and visualisation.

Use this information to reduce negative programming and improve the positive.
