Hack Your Brain đ§
To get exactly what you want â¨
Hello bestie!
Todayâs love letter will help you understand a little bit more about how your brain works, so that you can use that knowledge to create more of what you want in this life.
First we need to talk about the subconscious mind. She is in the background doing ALL the things. She helps keep our bodies alive and safe so that we donât have to think about beating our heart, healing that paper cut, or breathing. Thank god she does, because consciously thinking about everything would be impossible! She is always on the look out to preserve our safety too, so she looks out for threats that might get in the way of our growth.
The other fun thing about the subconscious mind is that she does not understand negatives. If you say, âI donât want to have debt, I donât want to have debtâ - all your subconscious mind hears is âHAVE DEBTâ.
Hereâs another trick to understand this concept. If I say, âDonât think about a yellow rubber duckyâ. Whatâs the first thing that comes to mind? Probably a yellow rubber ducky!
Further more, there is another system at play, the reticular activating system or RAS. The RAS filters out information for us so that we can focus on what is important. I was shocked to learn that we at any given moment have thousands and thousands of stimulus that get filtered through our RAS, and only the most important things get brought back in.
So, if we say âdonât think about a yellow rubber duckâ. Chances are, not only will you picture a yellow rubber duck, but youâll see more of them through out your day. So much so, that youâll be wondering ⌠were there really this many yellow duckyâs before?!
So this all being said, if we think about how the subconscious and our RAS work, then to get what we actually want, we need to think and speak positively in the present tense. We also need to articulate our goals, because if we have a goal to make âmore moneyâ the subconscious doesnât know if thatâs $1, or $1,000,000.
Hopefully this concept has got your wheels turning, and ideas flowing about how you can catch your negative thoughts in action.
I am really excited to be getting certified as an EFT and Hypnosis practitioner to be able to support you in reprogramming your subconscious mind to be able to achieve all of your goals.
