H ere's my 20+ year research on the power of the subconscious mind. Many big names have worked on this like Freud, Napoleon Hill, Wallace D. Wattles, Dr. Joseph Murphy, Bob Proctor and Rhonda Byrne from The Secret just to name a few here.



So to make a long story short, my interest in this subconscious mind stuff started when I was 15 years old when an hypnotist came to our school and played with people from the audience including 2 of my friends.



1 girl I knew was about 100lb/5ft tall so a pretty skinny girl. The hypnotist put her to sleep and then said to her that she is now turning into a hard steel rod. After a few more seconds 2 people were able to lift her up and suspended her between 2 chairs and then a 300 lb guy was invited to stand on her belly which he did and she wasn't moving at all.



I was really impressed with this but didn't know what was going on until the hypnotist said that this is just affirmations implanted into the subconscious mind of people under the hypnosis influence.



Then I started to get more into this subconscious mind stuff by reading the "The Power of the Subconscious Mind" by Dr. Joseph Murphy and of course the classic Think & Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill...



In short, Napoleon interviewed over 500 millionaires and the formula to get rich according to his research is to take a sheet of paper, write down your desired goal with what you intend to give in return and to visualise it at night before you sleep and another time when you wake up in the morning.



The goal is to take this idea and implant it into your subconscious mind which in turn seems to attract that desire like a magnet if you BELIEVE in it, that is.



Of course being the left brainer that I am, I laughed at the whole idea that you can attract a $100,000 sport car just by reading a stupid piece of paper twice daily. I quickly found out that it was hard for me to consciously believe all this so the results was that my desired goal was never implanted into my subconscious mind because the conscious mind decides what you believe and what sounds too weird or just plain stupid to you.



The thoughts that you believe consciously (when you are awake) are sinking into the subconscious mind and those you don't believe in are rejected and are not getting into your subconscious mind.



So now began the quest to found out how I could bypass my conscious mind so that my desired goal would finally sink into my subconscious mind.



In other words,how do you believe in something you don't believe in???



Let's say that you want to win the lottery! So ask yourself if you believe you WILL win the million. Not just that you might win or that it would be nice to win it but rather if you TRULY, DEEPLY THINK that it's YOU and no other person who will win this million and if you have a single doubt, I'll be plain honest.. you are fuc**d



It took a while for me to get this but if you read books on the subconscious mind, you will see that the words BELIEF and FAITH comes back over and over again so HOW can you REALLY believe that you will win the lottery? This doesn't make any sense at all since we have what... 1 chance out of 15 million to win the draw this week and boost that number even more if we are talking about the powerball mega lottery.



About 2 years after reading Think & Grow Rich, I was still thinking and growing POOR so I knew that I had to find a way to implant that goal into my subconscious mind but HOW???



That's when I heard about another hypnotist called Marshall Silver. In the program, he talks about the fact that our life is based on the program that we have created by choice or default (mostly by default) into our subconscious mind and that it simply attracts the thoughts that you believe in.



So if your financial situation is in bad shape and you are lacking money, then it's because your conscious mind focuses on lack of money and since you believe this thought as being true, it sinks into the subconscious mind and that's what it attracts each day....lack of money!



Marshall said that if you can get access to your subconscious mind, you can reprogram it so that it attracts money instead of lack but to do that, you need to bypass your negative conscious mind and he does that using hypnosis but I'm not easily hypnotised so i'm back to square one.



Then came along Bob Proctor in 1996 I think with a program called A winner's image...



Bob said that your desire has to go from your conscious mind and sink into your SUBconscious mind (that I already knew) which then makes your body move into a higher vibrational rate and this is what attracts your goal.



He uses this little stick person diagram to explain what he's talking about.







But the problem is not to believe that my subconscious mind would attract my desired goal but HOW to BELIEVE using your conscious mind that you can get this goal because THAT'S the tricky part and years have passed and I still couldn't get this to work.



So I began my search on the human brain and this is what I found.



This diagram below takes the brain and divide it into 2 sections. The top one represents the conscious mind while the bottom half represents the subconscious mind. The red line is what I called the "Line of Beliefs" acting like a filter where only desires/intentions/thoughts that you believe will be able to cross the line and enter the subconscious mind.







In other words, I had to bypass this line to get access to my subconscious mind but again....HOW???







Accessing the Subconscious Mind....



This is what I learned so far...



I learned that these 2 halves of the brain (Conscious/Subconscious) have 2 different phases each. 2 for the conscious mind (Alpha and Beta) and 2 for the subconscious mind (Theta and Delta).







Each one has a specific "brain speed" so to speak. For example, when we are fully awake, we are in the BETA phase and the speed of the brain varies between 13 and 30 Hz (cycle per second).



When we go to bed and start to fall asleep or when we meditate, we enter the ALPHA phase (8-12 HZ).



Then when we are sleeping, we now enter the THETA phase (4-7 Hz) and then the DELTA phase in deep sleep.



According to Sigmund Freud, the subconscious mind is accessed when the brain is in the THETA phase. You can implant in it your suggestion much more easily.



Hypnotist know all about this because when people go on stage, they are put to sleep and are implanted suggestions like "... you are now a chicken" . Those people slowed their brain speed from around 25 Hz(BETA) to 7-8 Hz which is at the ALPHA-THETA phase border.



When the brain enters the THETA phase, this is what happen (see image below). As you can see, the analytical, critical conscious mind is TOTALLY out of the equation because...it's asleep.







This way, you can implant into your subconscious any suggestions (ex: you make $5,000/month with your new project) you want to believe but couldn't during the day because your conscious mind didn't believe in it and was laughing at this suggestion.



So now you must be asking yourself.."ok, that's nice but how can I implant my suggestion into my subconscious mind knowing that to arrive there, I need to be...asleep???" and there are only 2 ways you can do this...



Reprogramming The Subconscious Mind...



You can implant your suggestions into your subconscious mind...



1- Through Hypnosis



2- Using Audio messages during the night.



The 1st one is nice but it cost too much so I decided to focus on the 2nd one.



What I did was to go to my computer, turn on my headset with a mic on it, opened the Windows Sound Recorder, then created my first audio msg and it worked!!! Boy, I was stunned.



This is what you need to do to reprogram your brain so that your desired goals can be implanted into your subconscious mind EVEN if you think the opposite during the day.



Step 1: Get yourself a headset with a microphone in it.



Step 2: Open up the free Windows sound recorder tool (Start>>Programs>>Accessories>>Entertainment>>Sound Recorder).







Step 3: Record yourself (Red round button) a msg that last about 6 seconds and leave 2 secs of blank sound before you click the stop button (Black square button).



Step 4: To play your audio msg back in a loop you can use Windows Media Player by clicking on the "Repeat" function on the Play menu (Ctrl+T as in the image here).







Step 5: Regarding what words to use, make sure you use the word YOU and not I since it's an audio msg that acts like a person talking to you so you don't want that person to say "I make $5,000/month as a healer" because you just want to reply, "...well good good luck with your $5,000 my dear". With Think & Grow Rich it's different because they want you to read out loud a written statement to yourself WHILE you are awake so of course you will read it using the "I".

If you like this subconscious mind stuff, I STRONGLY suggest that you watch this interview with the hypnotherapist Teri Mahaney. on the Conscious Media Network website.



She also discovered in the 80s the power of running these audio programs during the night and had great results on herself, her friends and clients too. She also talks about the brain phases (Beta, Alpha, Theta and Delta) so looks like I was "right on the nose" with my research back in 2004.



Some results...



Back now to the very first audio msg I did...



"...you make $500/week using your new business"....and it took me 3 days to make it.



Then I tried this one...



"...you make $5,000/month using your new business"....it took me about 10 days to make $10,000.



I fixed MANY health problems with it using this sentence...



"Your ______ problem goes away completely and rapidly".



Just replace the ______ with the name of yor health problem(ex: Your back problem....)



Of course this totally blew me away until it crashed on me...





Eliminating Self Sabotage...



It doesn't matter if you manage to attract what you want (lovers, money, etc...) because if you still have negative beliefs or associations to what you've been attracted, just like me, you will lose it all, it's just a matter of time. It took me 10 days to go from $0 to $10,000/month but it took 2 years for me to lose it all and get back to where I started. I realised that YOU NEED to do a cleanup of your subconscious mind BEFORE you start ANY audio programs regarding what you want. If you don't believe that we can lose it all, listen to this 3 min audio clip from Tony Robbins, it will convince you. - TONY ROBBINS Self Sabotage Mp3 -



For example, if you want more money, you need to start an audio program like this... "...All your negative associations regarding money are now removed form your subconscious mind". Then you can start with an audio program like this one... "...You attract $100 from unexpected income". This last one will make you a believer because when does that happen where someone gives you a $100 that we didn't think about or we're expecting at all?

Or you could try this one... "...You now make $100 per week easily". Another VERY IMPORTANT thing regarding audio programs. To make it work, YOU HAVE to listen to your audio msg for at least 10 nights in a row or else you will have to start all over again so if you don't think that you will be able to listen to it 10 nights in a row because you are travelling or something else, don't even start it and wait until you will be able to do that.



Good luck.
