To understand why soul worthy transformations is a combination of Rapid transformation therapy and mindset shifting, you have to understand the working of your inner mind. 

 

Subconscious mind – What it is and why it is important 

 

The subconscious mind is a database of stored programs, primarily derived from the programming we receive as children, from the last trimester of pregnancy through the first six years of life.  During this time we are sponges and we absorb everything that is going on around us. This is how we learn to live in the world. We form beliefs about ourselves, our abilities, the people that we are surrounded by, and the world that we live in, by watching and emulating those around us. We don’t have the faculties to decipher good from bad and we learn to have reactions based on how those that surround us respond to events. These are stimulus-response programs, that become our habits. There is no logic in these subconscious behaviours, it’s more like push the button, and play the program.  Unfortunately, the downloaded programs comprising of the subconscious database are derived from recording the behavior of those around us, our parents, siblings, teachers, extended family, community, etc. AND … psychology reveals up to 70% of these “learned” behaviors are negative, disempowering, self-sabotaging, and limiting. 

 

Conscious mind vs subconscious mind

 

The two minds are the conscious and the subconscious. The conscious mind contains wishes and desires and operates about 5% of the time. That means that 95% of our lives are from the programs which have been downloaded into the subconscious mind. While our conscious minds are busy thinking during the day, our subconscious programming self-sabotages due to being predominantly negative and disempowering. We externalize our struggles because we don’t see that we’re sabotaging ourselves; we only recognize that life isn’t working out the way we want it to.

 

You can educate the conscious mind and yet it never ever changes the program. Willpower and motivation to change certain habits can only take you so far before you sabotage yourself again. This is due to our subconscious programming. If we don’t recognize and own the limited beliefs that are holding us back, we can’t change them. Step one, own it!

 

You don’t get habits to change just because you want them to change. The subconscious mind resists change because if it changes, then the habits change. You have to understand how the programs were installed in the first place and then go back and undo the process. That means practice. If you want to play a musical instrument, a nice conscious idea, you have to practice. 

 

So practice driving a car, practice playing a musical instrument, practice being in a relationship.

 

Sigmund Freud introduced the ideas of different levels of consciousness – with the conscious mind being the part of the mind that stores thoughts, memories, and experiences that we can easily recall and what we employ when we are doing something difficult or learning something new. 

 

The subconscious acts on the ‘next level’, down if you will. It stores experiences and reactions. Its job is to make your mental processing quicker and help you categorize – new experiences quickly by overlaying past experiences and your past reaction to them.

 

A good example of the conscious vs subconscious is that of learning to drive. When you start learning, you need your conscious mind to constantly remind you how to do it; when to change gear, how to steer, how to control the pedals, etc. However, once you have been driving for a while and all of the processes of driving becomes a habit, then the subconscious takes over. This leaves the conscious to do what it wants – listen to the radio, have a conversation, decide on weekend plans, or daydream about your next holiday!

 

The mind is truly amazing…however, it is also incredibly lazy.

 

The mind can be incredibly lazy – whenever we experience something completely new, instead of treating it as such, our mind works to overlay the experience with something that we are familiar with. 

 

The mind loves the familiar. It loves habits. It loves ‘the everyday’. Processing something new all the time and reacting in an entirely different way every time would be exhausting, but unfortunately this ‘laziness’ can also have detrimental effects.

 

One Way to Change Your Subconscious Mind

 

I recommend making, and listening to audio recordings that are positive and in the present tense as if the belief or feeling you are wanting to reprogram has already happened. For example: “I’m enough”, “I am healthy” or “I am worthy and loved.” The function of the mind is to create coherence between your beliefs and your reality. Listening to positive and present tense affirmations helps to create this coherence.

 

Remember:

 

Rewiring the mind in a trance state – This is the way we learned our programs in the first 7 years of life. During this time, the mind is operating in a low vibrational frequency just like the state of hypnosis. The theta state is very receptive and we enter into this state at a minimum twice a day, every day before falling asleep and just before waking up.

 

Repetition – Through repetition and the creation of “habits,” is the primary way we acquire subconscious programs after age 7. This can’t just be sticky notes on the mirror. This must be felt and experienced. This can be difficult, especially if we are experiencing great contrast to the thing we want. Remember habits are by repeating something over and over and over again. Practicing, repeating, practicing! 

 

This is where the role of Rapid Transformational Therapy is revolutionary. It is likely that if you are suffering from stress, anxiety, or another health debilitating habit, then you are probably stuck in a cycle where your subconscious makes you react to many different events, experiences, and circumstances in the same way. It overlays bad feelings and negative emotions onto fresh experiences because it doesn’t know how else to interpret them and it floods the brain with ‘bad’ hormones. This is when the subconscious starts to affect the conscious mind and consequently your reactions to a given situation.

 

“Your only limitation is the one you set up in your own mind!”

 

Understanding limiting beliefs

 

For many of us, when we suffer from anxiety, stress, or depression, there is a ‘common thread’ and a negative belief about ourselves. For some, it stems from a single experience and a reaction to it, which dictates many of their everyday experiences. These become limiting beliefs. Unfortunately, if you ask yourself what the experience or state that caused them was, you will not be able to answer concisely.

 

This is because the answer is stored in your subconscious and it is really hard to access without the right tools and guidance. Through RTT, we can finally access this vault of information. We can reveal what is feeding the negative thought cycles. The subconscious is not inaccessible, but without the time and space to centre ourselves and be focussed enough to go beneath the conscious and explore, it remains hidden.

 

Breaking free and forming new habits

 

By truly understanding how the mind works and exploring the subconscious, you can start to understand your habits, your limiting beliefs, and any sense that you are not good enough or not capable. Importantly, you can understand where these thoughts are coming from and what is feeding these beliefs.

 

The next step is to ‘rewrite the subconscious’. The mind is lazy, so it needs lots of reinforcement to form new neural pathways and to start reacting to certain events and experiences in a different way. It needs support to start reacting in a positive way so that the ‘happy hormones’ can be released. 

 

This is why following up an RTT session with 21 days of listening to a personal recording is so important. Using this easy, but effective, habit-forming technique, you can “retrain the mind” and start to ensure the subconscious feeds the conscious in a positive and more fulfilling way.
