How to use the powers of your sub-conscious

Article kindly supplied by Derrick E Payne.

Fight or Flight

If you are under a serious physical threat your subconscious will take the necessary action to avoid the consequences – WHY? – Because if you get killed your subconscious has lost its home hasn't it – nowhere to live! That's a bit extreme so think of it this way – your subconscious will always try to protect you because you are its host and if you come to harm IT DOES!

Riding Your Bike or Driving Your Car (not at the same time PLEEASE!)

This is very similar to tying your shoelaces in that you taught your subconscious the sequence involved. The fact that the sequence has more to it has nothing to do with it but it just proves how clever your subconscious can become IF you TEACH IT! Brain surgeons, airline pilots and ships captains have taught their subconscious how to do what it is they do and IT WORKS!

Shivers and Sweats

You didn't teach your subconscious these things – it knew them already. A shiver is the way to give a kick start to your circulatory system to send hot blood to where it's needed if you are cold. If you are hot, the sweating process is started by your subconscious so that when the moisture evaporates it will cool you down by drawing heat from your skin.

Sitting on a Pin!

Do I really need to explain what happens here? Don't think so!

Sleeping on it

When you decide to “sleep on it” because you couldn't remember what it was you couldn't, your subconscious recognised this as an instruction and whilst you were asleep it trawled through your memory banks until it found what you couldn't. The amazing thing is that it didn't wake you up to tell you - it waited until you woke up – then it told you what you were looking for. How polite and caring of your subconscious to have enough respect to do this. This works when you are stuck on a crossword puzzle as well – think about it!!

Summary and Conclusions

Your subconscious can work on its own without any interference from you and under this heading comes Fight or Flight: Shivers & Sweats and Sit on a Pin and many other examples you can think of other than these.

You can give an instruction to your subconscious and IF it knows what to do it will do it BUT you MUST say what you mean and mean what you say or your subconscious will view you as an idiot and act accordingly. Under this heading we can find The Alarm Clock: I'll Sleep On It and many other examples of a simple task being given to your subconscious – consciously – by you!

So! To Put It Simply

You can train/teach your subconscious quite complicated sequences and rely on it to carry out your instructions IF you taught it PROPERLY in the first place and it knows how to do "it". There are other things which your subconscious can do, which you have NOT taught it and these tasks are to protect your well-being. There is a degree of self-interest here (on the part of your subconscious) but who's complaining?

It's all very well for me to be suggesting that you should and CAN programme your subconscious when you don't even know what it looks like – so I'll let you into a little secret – I don't know either!!

How deceitful of me you say! Not at all, I say because no one else knows either but it would help if you could visualise something wouldn't it? Here's the answer to this problem because it WOULD help you with your programming.

Try and remember what you might have been wearing on your way to school when you were seven years old – if you can't remember use your imagination or be daring and ASK your subconscious to tell you then you'll have a picture to look at when you are programming your subconscious.

When you are talking to your subconscious (not aloud please!) remember it's only SEVEN – don't bully or be sarcastic and don't expect instant results. You know very well that if you put too much pressure on a child of seven he/she will go into a sulk and you've blown it haven't you? You don't even have to say it – just think it like you did with the alarm clock but say what you mean and mean what you say because you can't hoodwink your subconscious; it knows ALL your nasty little secrets so be careful!

Why Seven?

By the time a child is seven years old, you can reasonably expect it to know right from wrong! It is necessary for YOU to KNOW that your subconscious knows as well and then you can trust your subconscious to get things right! Listen to what it is saying to you. In any case seven is a magic figure- it's the age of realisation – think about it!!

A Final Example

Let's say that you are worrying about a medical procedure you are facing and you are just a bit "worried" about it. It probably keeps coming into your mind and disturbing your sleep patterns – what are you going to do? – It's a very simple, talk to your subconscious and ask it to tell you why you are worrying and SHUT UP AND LISTEN. You see – it's not your problem really – it's your subconscious's problem and he/she knows how to deal with it. The way it works is that by trying to calm your subconscious down you will calm YOURSELF down by using logical thought, looking at the end results. Bit of sympathy wouldn't hurt would it?

If you can convince yourself you don't have a problem with anything because they all belong to your subconscious, they will vanish.>

FINALLY

In the Preface to these articles I said that “I have built up a collection of concepts which seem to work” I never said that they were facts and many so-called "professionals" in and around the medical and the complimentary medical world would not believe ANY OF IT – well – as far as I'm concerned – that's their loss. No one knows 100% about the subconscious so on the face of it – no one is in a position to refute any of my concepts – but they will – because that's the way they are!!

How many times in your life have you been in the situation where there is something you have to do (doesn't matter what) but you don't WANT to do it – so you keep putting it off, but in the end you talk yourself into doing it!

Is that the ACTUAL situation? It isn't, is it? You didn't talk yourself into doing it – you programmed your subconscious into doing it and it made YOU do it! Let's get it right, shall we?
