We all have massive untapped potential . We have one of the greatest tools that has ever been created, the human brain. It is so powerful that the subconscious mind can process around 40 millions bits of information per second.
Compare that to the processing power of the conscious mind which can only process 40 bits of information per second. Since the subconscious mind is one million times more powerful than our conscious mind, it only makes sense that if we are to use our brains more efficiently that we learn or at least use some kind method to harness it’s power in ways that assist us in creating our lives more by design that by it’s default settings.
You have probably heard stories about how we only use a few percentage of our brain. The reason we only use a small portion of our brain is because the vast majority of its functions occurs in the subconscious portion which controls 95% of our behaviour.
“Neuroscience now reveals that the subconscious mind, which is an information processor one million times more powerful than the conscious mind, runs our behaviour from 95-99% of the time” – Dr Bruce Lipton, Award winning author of ”The Biology of Belief”.
With this truth, we have the realization that we have massive potential that is presently untapped.
The question is, how do you untap the potential of your mind?
Hypnotherapy is one way that many people are learning how to do this . There are several other methods you can use such as neurolinguistic programming, meditation, subliminal audios, Psych-K, Emotional Freedom Technique, Avatar, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, Paraliminal audios, and more.
Hypnotherapy is much more familiar to most people even though it has several myths about it that are continually propagated with movies and stage hypnotists. Even with the false perceptions it has, it is still highly regarded in the field of personal development and is used very successfully with athletes, business people, celebrities and in therapeutic applications as well.
Hypnosis is a reprogramming mind technique that involves the therapeutic use of hypnosis to help people achieve assorted outcomes. Commonly, hypnotherapy is known for stopping smoking, overcoming fear and other issues . However hypnotherapy can also be used to help people increase their potential, for example improve your concentration, memory and even sensory awareness.
The amazing resources we have is stored away within our unconscious minds – that part we are not consciously aware of. To demonstrate what your unconscious mind is, just for a moment think of your age – you can probably remember it pretty easily. But before I asked, you weren’t thinking of it – it was in your unconscious.
Something like your middle name is easy to surface from your unconscious, however there are many other memories which are tougher to remember – for example things that happened when you were 4 or 5 years old. Some people indicate that we store every experience we have had in our unconscious.
We all have had dozens of experiences where we have experienced being highly resourceful – situations where we are happy, confident, motivated and countless other resourceful states.
Wouldn’t it be useful to be able to use a reprogramming mind method like self hypnosis to access some of these resources whenever we want to? For example, being able to find a confident state for an interview.
Any feeling you have ever had you can experience again whenever you want to by following these steps .
A great way to do this follows:
- Go back to a time when you felt totally confident
- Remember a particular time
- Go back to that time and float into your body – recall you are back in that experience and see what you saw, hear what you heard and feel what you felt
You should find yourself feeling that emotion again. Now the next time you want to feel amazing , take a few moments to take yourself back to that experience and notice yourself feeling totally resourceful!
Whether you use hypnosis or any other kind of reprogramming mind method, the fact is that there are ways for us to easily improve and effect our lives on autopilot by using the power of our subconscious mind. To not use this power to your benefit is like buying a car and only using the glove box. The more you can utilize the true capabilities of your mind, the sooner you can have your million times more powerful processor, taking you to places that your subconscious only dreams of.
