The Power Of Your Subconscious Mind

[VAmami]

This is truly a manual for life.... Im reading this as a little inspiration and rejuvenation of my overall mindstate. I've always subscribed to the mind over matter, positive thinking, mind elevation practices but this book makes it so much easier to put into fruition....

It basically details techniques anyone can apply in their day to day lives, to harness the power of their subconscious mind - ultimately drawing what they want out of life. With the completion of this short book, Im confident I'll have a completely different outlook and will be well on my journey to complete internal happiness :yes:

.... It is not the thing believed in that brings an answer to man’s prayer; the
answer to prayer results when the individual’s sub-conscious mind responds
to the mental picture or thought in his mind.......

Here's the ebook version, if anyone else is interested

read this a while ago still..great book....totally different interpretation of what the subconscious mind is from traditional interpretations..

worth reading - makes some great points..

lent it to one of my boys, changed my number and lost contact with him so the book is gone(along with about 3 other books and $300 but that's neither here nor) - i'm gonna buy it again..

smh @ vamammy taking eons to finish the book..u got a reading impediment homey?:confused:

First off, Im not your mammy....

Second, the book is designed so that even simpletons like yourself can grasp the concept of mind elevation. Most people can read the book in one sitting, as opposed to you coming back days later to comment on it.

Apparnetly Ive said something to offend you, because there isnt anything about my posting style that would suggest that I have intellectual impediments of any nature....

So please Tic Tok, either strap one on, or stop riding my vagina and go that way ------->

Please.... I dont just talk about it, I live it.... if you paid half as close attention to me as you think you do, youd know that....

Visualization, positive affirmations, positive subconscious thinking and mind elevation are the foundation to my entire being....
There isnt anything more real....
It completely alleviates depression, negative thinking, etc. If youve already experienced something traumatic it helps you cope, heal and move forward.
Read this (http://forums.sohh.com/showthread.php?t=993024) to start with. It touches on a few different visual and verbal techniques that you can apply....
I think what he is describing is just rejecting negativity.
For instance, the power of suggestion is tremendous. Sometimes it can be as simple as someone saying we look sick, then we suddenly feel as though we are. The way the mind works is it takes those impressions - what we see, hear and think - and manifests them in our daily lives. Thats why its important to mentally or visually reject that negativity as it presents itself in our lives.
People are constantly bombarding us with their own negative perceptions, drama and bad auras.... Visualization can help with that. Imagining physically pushing those people/objects/situations away.... imagining white light enveloping you or those people/objects/situations.... the possibilities are endless and its all about what works best for you.....
Dont focus on that event.... focus on the outcome that you want to manifest itself now and in the present. Visualize how you desire things to be. Verbalize it as well. Nightly, before you go to sleep or throughout the day whenever you have some quiet time, say something like:
"I accept ____ manifesting into my life. I deserve ____. I welcome _____ with great gratitude and love "
Try and proceed with the confidence as if its all taken care of.
It's when we let doubt, panic, sadness, etc. take over, that we ultimately allow that sh!t to take the forefront in our lives.
You have to want to let it go.... Sometimes when we experience something traumatic, we are comforted by the pain. Its easier to wallow in our own sadness than to make a conscious effort to let go of it. You have to truly believe that no matter how extreme or horrible the event nor the part you played, that you deserve forgiveness and a clean slate.
Everytime a negative thought leaks in, say something simple like, "I reject that negative ___. I deserve to be happy. All is forgiven. I am starting anew." Just keep doing that. It becomes easier each day. You cant let that sh!t consume you - thats why people are depressed, bitter, angry, etc.
Definitely read the book. It addresses exactly what youre talking about.
Absolutely.
For instance I'd been pursuing a position with Verizon for a couple of months. I had been extended a job offer, but was experiencing major conflictions when it came to starting the position. Eventually because of this, I was unable to accept it. I was extremely disappointed initially. Unfortunately I did let my disappointment get the best of me. At the time, I had all of my eggs in one basket and couldnt possibly imagine another position like that one. I started worrying about how long it would take to find a job as good as that one. It seemed impossible.
When the anxiety hit, I just said simply, "I will find the position that is right for me, that will be the most enjoyable and the most profitable." I would repeat that whenever I felt myself slipping into worry. Before I went to bed, I'd imagine myself jammin in my car, riding to work happy and carefree. A few days later I received a call from AT&T. I start Monday and will officially be making 10,000 more than I did last year.
Because I impressed upon my subconscious the idea of the right position coming to me, it manifested itself. When I felt anxious about the situation, projecting that confidence countered the negativity.
Thats because you're human.... I'm dealing with numerous stressful situations in my life as well, and the negative thoughts seep in every now and again....
The key isnt necessarily to never feed into that negative energy.... we're all human.... but rather to counter the negative with positive.
example, you say/feel:
"Damn, because _____ happened, things will never be the same. I'll never be the same and they will never see me the same way, either"
now recognize what you just said was negative and extremely damaging to your psyche. Counter it by immediately thinking/saying something positive.
"I reject that thought/feeling. I am surrounded by perfect love, perfect trust and perfect forgiveness. All wounds are healing now. I deserve peace, forgiveness and happiness."
By recognizing your thoughts/feelings were negative and immediately countering those thoughts/feelings with positive, youre reshaping your entire life.
Just try it.

The subconscious is one part of our dual mind. So it not only acts and absorbs but naturally "thinks" as well....

He mentions the importance of rejecting negativity several times in the book.

Youre entitled to your own interpretation of the book tho.... so whatever....

[Tic-Tok]

(1)The subconscious is one part of our dual mind. So it not only acts and absorbs but naturally "thinks" as well....
(2)He mentions the importance of rejecting negativity several times in the book.
(3)Youre entitled to your own interpretation of the book tho.... so whatever....
(1)i think what you claim to be 'natural thinking' is in my opinion 'natural calculation'...no thought just a reaction..impressed visualizations intermingling to form conclusions..no actual thinking involved..


first 5 definitions of 'thinking' from dictionary.com clearly point to thinking as being a conscious(not subconscious) endeavor-

think·ing, adjective, noun
–verb (used without object) 1. to have a conscious mind, to some extent of reasoning, remembering experiences, making rational decisions, etc.
2. to employ one's mind rationally and objectively(not subjectively) in evaluating or dealing with a given situation: Think carefully before you begin.
3. to have a certain thing as the subject of one's thoughts: I was thinking about you. We could think of nothing else.
4. to call something to one's conscious mind: I couldn't think of his phone number.
---------------------------------

and because my memory of what the book has to say about this is vague, i thought i mine as well download it to see what it says..

on page 22 it says - "all your experiences, events, conditions and acts are the reactions of your sub-conscious mind to your thoughts"
so basically it's saying your sub-conscious mind reacts and acts...it doesn't say it thinks..


(2)sure the book speaks about 'rejecting negativity' but in Souly's particular case that isn't what he was doing


(3)my interpretation on how the subconscious works isn't from what i read in this book but actually from a bunch of different sources

1. Okay, well also pulled from dictionary.com:

Subconscious:

existing in the mind but not immediately available to consciousness: thought, feeling, and behavior without entering awareness

and

the mental activities just below the threshold of consciousness

Again, no one gives a fukk what your opinion of subconscious thinking is. Im not even giving my opinion. Im giving fact.

2. :huh: This thread isnt about "Souly" its about the book itself... You should copy and paste all of the above in its rightful, relevant thread since youre so easily confused....

3. Again, this thread is about a specific book, if you want to create a thread about general subconscious thought, go ahead and do so, and I'll be more than happy to entertain your half-assed thoughts on the subject :yes: Otherwise lets just discuss this particular book.... like everyone else in the thread is doing....

Tic-Tok. You're trying wayyyy to hard to disprove something that fundamentally just is. Our mind, which we use to think, is dual in nature. Its conscious and subconscious. So to suggest that the power of your subconscious mind doesnt have anything to do with thinking is retarded.

Go forth believing whatever you wish about this book and whatever else youve read. Thats completely fine by me. You talk about comparing books and opinions but still havent mentioned any of your other sources. And I cant imagine having someone so foreign to my experience as an African-American, Latina woman teach me anything about how to interpret a book or how to apply it to my life.

What is so fascinating about me that you feel it necessary to appear in every thread I start, with your slick, mindless rebuttals. Its really sick when others notice this as well. These days, Im getting more pms about you and your behavior than I am about my breasts. That disturbs me. The obsession needs to end here.

he says "I'm starting to visualize things in a negative light, I push myself in a way for me to get the negativity out. The key is to remain positive and slowly walk towards your goal, no matter how big."

what i'm saying is it's his acceptance of positiveness and not his rejection of negativity that is dealing with the negativity

o my bad then
can you help me with my situation tho?
what exactly u need help with?

[Da Boy Junior]

Its in that thread

[Tic-Tok]

Its in that thread
k...just went through your posts in the thread..

basically u experienced a traumatic event and it's affecting your life and daily activities..

b4 i say anything, let me just point out that there's no substitute for good professional help - it's definitely your best option..people like to put down drugs but drugs prescribed by a competent physician will usually give a great boost on the road to recovery..

how does this help with depression? what if you already went through a traumatic event and it's to late to do any type of visualization?

1)try not to associate the depression with the traumatic event

2)reflect on the traumatic event and on a piece of paper organize from top to bottom the 'good lessons' you could learn from it and the 'negative consequences' that came from it...read over the list and in your mind keep telling yourself 'place good lessons in the front of my mind' and 'place negative consequences in the back of my mind'

have you ever kept rethinking things that happened before the traumatic event? Like how things were so normal and good before the incident happened?

memories have nowhere to go - they'll keep circling...the key is organizing them so that the negative memories are suppressed as much as possible..this helps because if organized properly they wont affect your daily activities..

it's hard to walk away from the past tho, i constantly think about the event and it affects me everyday. It's hard to visualize a light at the end of the tunnel. it's hard to put it behind me and keep moving forward, especially when im reminded by it everyday
what if you were part of the event? and it was made by a mistake on your part? how could you stop yourself from thinking like you've failed yourself and your a big disappointment.
u dont want to 'walk away from the past'...u must face it b4 u could move forward..;)

and try not to associate people, places and things with that event..also, try not to associate who you are with what happened that day - what happened that day isn't you - you r something else..

damn your a smart person va
:weirdo:

i already did and it's to late :sad:
it's actually early on the road to full and complete recovery

man im reminded by the event everyday, everytime i see the people involved in it, i always get negative thoughts and emotions
like i said, dont associate people, places and things with the events of that day
even therapy,counseling doesnt help it.
yes it does...put the problem out in the open and speak about it with people that care...when u realize that people are understanding with your traumatic experience, u get a sense of relief

man its tough

i keep thinking about the past stuff before the event, and since i had a big role in the event and i couldve avoided it i feel disappointed in myself, and im starting to hate myself because of it. It's never getting out of my mind. It's always a wouldve,couldve,shouldve deal. and i wish i could go back in time to change it but i cant.

this sh1t has affected me so much, ive became so unfocused in school and i almost hit a lady while driving because i was thinking about it.

fortunately the event had something to do with the school, and since im leaving the school after this year it'll help me with it because i wont be reminded of it, right?

u need to take a step back and reorganize your approach..

what you're trying to do is 'get the thoughts that r consuming your mind out of your head'...truth is they aren't removable unless u encounter some type of physical trauma...what u need to do is suppress them and the only way to achieve this is by consuming your mind with new thoughts - this causes the negative thoughts to get pushed to the rear, effectively suppressing them..

what you're trying to achieve = Retroactive Interference: Retroactive interference is when a person has difficulty recalling old information because of newly learned information. For example, you may have difficulty skiing because of recently learning how to snowboard.

I always think about stuff that happened before the event, like how good it was before. The event happened in february, and Its still in my head and I can't let go of it. It fukking sucks, I wake up everymorning with this sh1t in my head. Sometimes I feel like dropping out and giving up on school.

I have 1 more month left of this school, hopefully me leaving will help tremendously. Because even on the weekends when im not at school and when im away from these people, it still consumes me. And im starting to think it'll affect me for the rest of my life.

I wish I could go back in time... ugh. Im dwelling to much in the past. I know the specific date of the event. It was february 1st, it gives me chills everytime I see something that has the date february 1st 2008
