Long ago there was a movie called Field of Dreams, which starred Kevin Costner. He was a farmer in the middle of Iowa trying to make a living during a difficult period. One day while riding his tractor, a voice said, ‘If you build it they will come.’ He glanced around for a bit, and then went about his business until it happened again. This voice was actually his subconscious mind.
Through understanding how your own subconscious mind power works you will be able to change every aspect of your life that you are unhappy with. The power of your mind is amazing. There are no limits to what you can achieve if you are able to take control of this power.
Lets look at a few examples of subconscious mind power at work. One of the best examples is well known by most people already. This example is offered because the results have been documented so many times. It is of course the Placebo Effect. This term is most commonly used when medication trials are taking place. First you have the control group who are given a sugar pill (placebo). Then there is another study group who get the actual medication. Both of the groups are told what the medication is for and what it should do. Neither of them know if they are getting the real medication or the placebo.
Most studies have shown at least some of what is called the ‘placebo effect.’ That is, at least some of the people in the placebo group have shown ‘effects’ from the ‘drug,’ even though they’ve actually gotten a placebo. That is, their subconscious minds decided that they had gotten the drug and produced some of the same benefits and side effects as they were told the actual medication would give them. Simply, these patients believed they had gotten the medication, so their subconscious minds produced the medication’s effects to at least some degree.
Or, let’s take another example. Perhaps you’ve gone to the doctor to get a medication for something that’s wrong with you. You may have noticed that although a doctor will tell you what the side effects are, he or she will usually minimize them to at least some extent. That’s because it’s been shown that patients will often exaggerate the side effects in their own minds (or become the small percentage that actually experiences severe side effects), and actually begin to experience those side effects as a sort of ‘negative self-fulfilling prophecy.’ Doctors don’t want that to happen, so although they are beholden by law to tell you what side effects are, they don’t exaggerate them specifically because they don’t want patients to create side effects.
It really is unfortunate that we didn’t figure this out sooner. If everyone knew how to take advantage of the power inside their subconscious mind, you would have seen history rewritten. Would JFK or Abraham Lincoln been assassinated? Would the U.S. actually go to war in Vietnam? Would scientists been able to cure diseases much quicker? We could go on and on, but if the individuals related to those topics utilized the hidden secrets in the subconscious mind, maybe things would have been different.
You can use visualization to change the way you see things, too. Visualization is a very simple technique that really, really works. You can do this in a couple of different ways. Number one, close your eyes and visualize in your mind’s eye what you want, seeing it as though it were right there in front of you.
Another way to visualize that’s very effective, as well as with the first technique, is to create a physical picture of what you want. For example, if you want a new car, you can find a picture of the car you want in a magazine or something similar. Put that picture on your refrigerator so that you see it several times a day. Or, better yet, have a friend take a picture of you standing next to that car. As you see that picture of you standing next to that car over and over again, it eventually becomes imprinted on your subconscious mind that you are to have that car, and you eventually will have it as a reality.
These traits have withstood the test of time and are only being recognized more so today. It’s been thousands of years since ancient religions continuously trained their subconscious mind and opened up the power behind it. Hopefully we will continue to embrace the positive effects it can have on our lives as a society.
A scientific field called quantum physics has shown that matter is no longer solid at the subatomic level and simply becomes pure energy. And, quantum physics has shown that the mind can actually manipulate this energy. In fact, quantum physics has actually proven that the energy itself does not exist UNLESS it is observed.
This is probably a lot to take in the first time around, but when you understand it more you’ll be able to tap into the power that the subconscious mind holds. In the beginning stages we recommend giving yourself the affirmations necessary to train the mind. Whether you do it with pictures or thoughts, we’ll leave that up to you.
Can you imagine if you were able to go from a 9 to 5 job making – an hour, to something that doubled your paychecks? It’s possible, but it all starts with you. Just remember to place these affirmations around your home, work, car, wallet, purse, or anywhere you will see it several times throughout the day.
The good news is it’s never too late to make a change and give you and your family the life you all deserve. We recommend having the entire family try doing it in the beginning and make it a family exercise. Just by sitting down together as a family, you’re already starting to enjoy the benefits of the subconscious mind. We’re glad it told you to read this article. Do you get the picture?
