Mind Power Techniques
Have you ever heard that we only use 10% of our brains? Most of us have heard this somewhere along the way --
and usually in connection with mind power techniques intended to tap into the remaining 90% of our mental
capabilities. Actually, this 10% idea is a myth -- if it were true, then brain surgeons would have it easy! The
fact is, we DO use all of our brain -- maybe it would be more accurate
to say that we are AWARE of only 10% of our brain activity -- with 90% occurring outside our conscious mind. For
example . . .
The brain makes sure that our lungs keep breathing and our heart keeps beating,

It triggers the fight
or flight response (so helpful to our ancestors, but so troublesome to modern man),
It thinks,
It dreams,
And much more…
Most of this activity goes on in the background of
our consciousness. Mind power techniques reach into that
background and help us shape our subconscious brain activity to reach positive, intentional outcomes.
The theory behind how this occurs is that each of us
is simply a manifestation of the energy of the universe. We are
not as separate as our conscious mind believes, but rather we are connected through our subconscious mind to all
the energy of the universe. So while the conscious mind believes
in its own limits, the subconscious mind is limitless. While the
conscious mind judges and makes choices, the subconscious mind accepts without judgment.
For those of us who have not learned to establish
communications between our conscious and subconscious minds, we have inadvertently imprinted our sense of
limitation on our subconscious. We believe we are limited and the
subconscious accepts those beliefs -- and turns them into reality. Using mind power techniques, we can learn to communicate with our
subconscious, and to plant positive thoughts there. With
practice, the subconscious will accept these new thoughts and will let them grow into a new and more positive
reality.
Here are some of the most popular mind power
techniques:
Affirmations - Positive statements repeated to your subconscious mind to form
desired outcomes.
Dream interpretation - assigning meaning to dreams in an effort to better
understand messages from the subconscious mind.
Hypnotic
suggestion - A suggestion made to the subconscious mind while a person is in a deeply relaxed and
receptive state.
Journaling
- a tool used to support other mind power techniques by reinforcing efforts to connect the conscious
and the subconscious mind.
Meditation - a state of deep
relaxation that brings a sense of calm and prepares an individual for subconscious exploration.
Visualization - the mental exercise of experiencing an event or activity in your
mind to better prepare you for a similar event or activity in reality.
Knowing how to harness our subconscious to obtain
more of what we want from our lives is not something that comes naturally to most of us. It takes practice. Mind
power techniques begin with expressing thoughts in a positive way -- a way that will achieve our desired outcome.
Once we plant those thoughts in our subconscious mind, they need to be reinforced with frequent repetition. With
practice and patience, those thoughts will begin to take root and a new and positive reality will take shape.
