Your energetic filing cabinet that’s running everything about your life in the background (and keeping you stuck).
What if I told you that you’re only aware of 10-16% of everything that goes on in your mind?
What if I also said that the 85-90% of your mind that you’re unaware of is what’s running your life, good and bad?
The part of your mind that you’re unaware of comes out in the way you speak, how you do things, and how you see the world.
It affects everything.
When you have the same thought enough times, you become emotional about it, and poof, bang, it becomes a belief. It can happen in a few brief moments or it can happen over a longer period of time. Now all of the actions you take in your day to day, from chores to conversations to what you buy, are all done through the lens of this belief.
What’s the driver of all of these beliefs that you’re unaware of?
I’m talking about your subconscious mind,
also known as your unconscious.
Your subconscious mind files away everything that doesn’t require effort to manage. All the things that you learned to do early on or over time that no longer require any conscious effort to do. Things like breathing, driving, chastising yourself for not speaking up, or immediately going to blame your partner for not caring about you enough.
The subconscious mind runs your behaviors. Your subconscious mind creates your reality.
Here’s an example.
If you were a very energetically open child, you likely felt everyone’s emotions and were quick to feel overwhelmed. You may have been told to stop crying. You learned to suppress your emotions because no one around you was able to teach you how to healthily express yourself and let you know that the way you are is actually a brilliant part of you, a signal that you’re a very energetically gifted being.
You move on through life hiding what you actually feel, while still being hyper aware of everyone else’s emotional state around you, and having outbursts of anger and tears when you feel like no one else around you cares about you. Every time there’s even a hint of someone feeling uncomfortable with your emotions, you stuff them away. This creates a massive anchor in your subconscious mind. It’s the story that plays out in every situation. “I never get to say what I want to say, or be who I want to be because of everyone else’s needs being more important than mine.”
These beliefs that you have running in your subconscious are not your fault, but they are your responsibility to resolve them.
You’re not utterly beholden to your subconscious mind, though. Here’s what’s amazing about it.
1. Remember your conscious brain?
You’re going to think the problem in front of you is a major effing problem. Your conscious brain is screaming and telling you that the situation is painful, the absolute worst, and you lament, “Why is this happening to me!?” The subconscious brain holds the key to resolving your pain. The problem in front of you is not the real problem. The subconscious created a situation that you’ll become conscious of (your romantic partner not considering your needs) to point you to what’s really going on (you’ve been neglecting your own needs for a long, long time).
2. It’s a tattle tale.
Everything you believe about yourself, positive or negative, is stored in the subconscious brain. If you know how to access it, it’s like a filing system for everything that shapes your life how it is right now. It can be changed!
3. Knowing more about how you operate in the background is going to empower you to take steps to create better programs with empowering beliefs.
4. Your subconscious is trying to help you!
Have you ever said, “this is just who I am”? You are not that version of you that feels not good enough, too much, or broken. The subconscious is going to help you by creating situations, circumstances, and the people around you to act out this belief that you’re holding. It’s trying to show you what you believe about yourself!
Using trained intuition, I can identify the greatest subconscious belief that is wreaking the most havoc in your life right now. Once resolved, you will feel like you grew so much as a person, learned so much about yourself, and have new ways of being and doing in the world that feel better to you and the people around you.
So, how does one find out what their subconscious is telling them?
Start to notice what people say to you, how they treat you, and what situations you find yourself in. Start to ask yourself, “What is my subconscious mind trying to tell me about how I see myself, how I treat myself, and what I believe about myself?” This is a big task, so take it easy.
Your subconscious is not your enemy, but it will seriously piss you off sometimes.
It’s always going to arrange your reality to show you what you’re doing to yourself, believe about yourself, or are seeing yourself in a negative way. It can get overwhelming to realize how you’ve been living life believing in yourself as such a low level and getting reminders all the time about it. Remember, your subconscious mind, in cahoots with Source and your Higher Self are doing their best to show you that you’re treating yourself in a way that doesn’t fit the reality of who you really are, which is, in fact, a perfect, whole, and unique human being. Each cell of your body was perfectly placed for a purpose, on purpose. And you are here to fulfill a soul mission that all of your experiences will aid you in being the absolute best at it.
your Higher Self designed everything about you.
They didn’t make any mistakes, so nothing about you can be a mistake or a detriment.
When you believe that some aspects of yourself are mistakes, that’s when the subconscious kicks up and has to show you how you’re dimming your brilliance within.
The subconscious actually holds the key to becoming more of who you’re meant to be in this lifetime. Are you ready?
