Speaker: All right, welcome back. Here we go. This episode is a much needed deep dive and breakdown of the power of your subconscious mind, because the subconscious mind is a very elusive topic that has a lot of question marks.
Speaker: and a lot of misinformation. So my hope is that this episode can demystify the subconscious mind for you and help you understand more clearly how you can use your subconscious mind to work with you in building your dream life and business.
Speaker: So let's dive right into it. Your subconscious mind is the control center of your whole life. It is the blueprint of the way you see the world, the way you show up in it. All of the things you say, do, and think all stem from your subconscious programming. Many people may call the subconscious the inner mind because that's exactly what it is. It is the mind within the mind. It is the mind under the surface level of what you are consciously thinking each day. And I'm going to break this down.
Speaker: so that you fully understand how it is working for you and with you all day every day without you even realizing it. Okay, here's one of my favorite examples to break down how the subconscious mind works. So you can think of your mind as a garden. You have a conscious mind and you have a subconscious mind, which don't worry, I will break down both of these for you very shortly. And so your subconscious mind is like this fertile soil in the garden. Now the conscious mind is planting seeds into the soil
Speaker: from experiences that you've been through, from thoughts that you're thinking each day, from traumas that you've gone through. All of the things that are happening in your day -to -day life experience are being planted into that fertile soil of the subconscious mind by your conscious mind, by your conscious actions and behaviors. And that soil then expands and grows. So your subconscious mind is the fertile soil that expands and grows
Speaker: and becomes your reality. So the conscious mind is like the gardener and your subconscious mind is that fertile soil that supports what's being planted in that soil to grow. Now your subconscious mind does not know the difference between good and bad. It doesn't know the difference between real and imagined. It just knows to grow whatever you're planting in your subconscious mind.
Speaker: which is why you hear so many teachers out there telling you, thoughts become things. It's not just because you're thinking them, it's because you're planting them into your subconscious and what you plant in your subconscious expands and grows. Now, we can't talk about the subconscious without talking about how suggestible the subconscious mind is before the age of seven years old.
Speaker: because a lot of the programming that is in your subconscious is there from the earliest years of your life of course you are continuing to program your subconscious every single day all day every day but the primary programming in your subconscious was
Speaker: planted there when you were a child because your subconscious like I mentioned is the most suggestible before the age of seven years old when you are a child your subconscious mind is like a sponge it is soaking up every little thing that you're seeing everything that you were shown everything you were told everything you heard around you
Speaker: That all got soaked into the subconscious and has become the lens on which you see the world and how you show up in it. Now that doesn't mean you can't shift it and rewire it. That's the work I do with many of my clients. We are undoing years and years of patterning and programming in the subconscious from childhood.
Speaker: But just know that most of the programming in your subconscious is there from your childhood. That's the baseline of your subconscious, is the programming from your childhood, from the adult figures in your life, from the experiences that you went through, the traumas you went through, all of the things that you saw, that you experienced, that you were shown, that you were told as a child.
Speaker: Now all the things that you do unconsciously, the thoughts you think unconsciously, the behavior patterns that happen unconsciously, it's all rooted in your subconscious mind. Your subconscious holds all the physical, emotional, and behavior patterns that happen unconsciously. All the things that you do without thinking about it. So for example, if you're wondering why I can't break a bad habit, even though on a conscious level you know you don't want to be doing it, it's because it's programmed in your subconscious.
Speaker: your subconscious mind is responsible for all of the things that are happening unconsciously. Your conscious mind, which we talked about a little bit already, but your conscious mind is responsible for your logical, analytical, linear thinking, basically everything that you are consciously choosing to do. And I'm going to share a statistic with you in just a minute that really demonstrates the power of your subconscious mind versus the conscious mind. So 90 %
Speaker: of everything you say and do happens as a result of your subconscious mind.
Speaker: of everything you say and do happens consciously. That means 10 % of the time you are consciously choosing to speak and act intentionally. So this really demonstrates the power of your subconscious mind. It is operating for you and with you all day, every single day of your life. And so you're probably wondering,
Speaker: Well, how do I program my subconscious? We're going to talk about that at length. In fact, it is what this whole podcast is dedicated to helping you start doing. But the most important thing to know about reprogramming your subconscious is that you cannot reprogram your subconscious mind
Speaker: without relaxing your conscious mind. You can think of your conscious mind as the gatekeeper of your subconscious. So you can't really get into the subconscious unless you relax the conscious mind, unless we allow the conscious mind to take a walk, to take a nap. So how do we relax the conscious mind? One of the most powerful ways to relax your conscious mind
Speaker: and access your subconscious programming so that you can delete and rewire old programming is through self -hypnosis, which we'll talk a little bit more about throughout this episode. But the most powerful way to relax your conscious mind and access the subconscious is through self -hypnosis. And the reason why this is
Speaker: is because self -hypnosis has this incredible ability to tap into the theta brainwave state which is the state of ultimate deep relaxation which most of you don't enter often it's very hard to drop into theta all on your own you can't just close your eyes and tap into theta and to break this down a bit more just you understand brainwave states a bit and how they work
Speaker: so beta brainwave state is your active thinking state the state that you're listening to this podcast in right now then from there there is the then from there there is the alpha brainwave state which is kind of like light daydreaming and then under there there is the theta brainwave state which is deep focused relaxation
Speaker: Deep deep meditative states this is the state of hypnosis this is the state you're able to access your subconscious mind in and then under the theta brainwave state there is delta which is your sleep state and there's a lot of misconceptions out there about.
Speaker: what self -hypnosis is and how it works. And we'll talk more about self -hypnosis and what it is and what it isn't in future episodes. But you can just know for right now, it has absolutely nothing to do with mind control. It has nothing to do with magic shows, stage shows, any of those weird like misconceptions that you've seen about hypnosis in Hollywood or in magic shows are all false. Self -hypnosis is simply a heightened state of focused relaxation.
Speaker: where you have increased problem solving abilities, where you can access your subconscious mind, where you can reprogram your subconscious mind. It is one of the most powerful states you can enter and it is one of the most powerful mindset practices. And in my opinion, it's the most underutilized one. And if you want to try self -hypnosis for yourself, that's why I created the Rewired app. There are over 30 subconscious visualization recordings to help you tap into the power of your subconscious mind and feel this for yourself.
Speaker: Now back to the conscious mind and the subconscious mind. You already know that your conscious mind is responsible for willpower, all of the things that you are consciously choosing to do. The subconscious mind is responsible for your beliefs, your emotions, your habits, automatic bodily functions, and also all of your memories are stored in your subconscious. All of the things that are happening unconsciously are stored in the subconscious mind. This all powerful subconscious mind of yours.
Speaker: And the subconscious mind is working 24 seven. That's right. The subconscious mind does not shut off. It is active and working and absorbing everything around you 24 seven, which is why it is so, so important to become more intentional about your energy, your environments, and what you allow into your spaces every day, because
Speaker: It is programming your subconscious mind for you. You have been programmed your whole entire life. That's right. Everything you're taking in on social media, the television shows, you watch the people you spend time with, all of it is programming your subconscious right now, every day, all day. Even when you sleep, the subconscious mind is still active and listening. I have a lot of clients who listen to the rewired recordings and they're like,
Speaker: I fell asleep during the session. Did it still work? Yes, it still worked because your subconscious mind absorb everything I was speaking to your subconscious in that recording. This is the power of your subconscious mind and your subconscious mind is either working with you or it's working against you. And now you can see why surface level mindset work isn't enough and doing deep subconscious work is so, so important. We're only scratching the surface with mindset work. The deeper work that actually works,
Speaker: is subconscious work. And to remind you of that lovely statistic again, your conscious mind is only responsible for 10 % of your actions and thoughts, and 90 % of your actions and thoughts are rooted in your subconscious programming. So the core message of this episode is this.
Speaker: your subconscious mind is really fucking powerful and you're either going to be in charge of your subconscious mind or it's going to be in charge of you. Self -hypnosis is one of the most powerful tools that you can use to access your subconscious mind to get in charge of your subconscious mind to delete old programming and intentionally rewire it. This is inserting programming that actually reflects the life you want to be living, the beliefs you actually
Speaker: believe now as an adult today and we really just scratched the surface in this episode there is so much more we can dive into around the subconscious which is why i created a whole podcast around it and you probably have a lot of questions i did too it's normal this podcast is going to continue to answer all of your questions
