The unconscious mind I

Unconscious mind works on…

As mentioned in the previous e-mail, the unconscious mind heals your wounds and illnesses. Notice that most of the times when you are sick e.g. cough, fever,… or you have a cut, you know what to do and let it heal by itself. Of course most of us couldn’t bear the discomfort and take medicine to fasten the process of healing. If we really leave our illness alone without aggravate it, you know yourself, your unconscious mind, will heal you.

Your unconscious mind has a blueprint to run your body to perfect health. It works day and night of making sure your breathing, heartbeat, blood flow,…  working even when you are asleep.

When you are sick, someone uses her palm to touch your forehead, that reminds you of your mother or someone at home who took care of you when you were young. Your unconscious mind stores all the memories in your body. E.g. old songs bring back your memory, taste or smell of food reminds about your mum’s cooking, certain way of touch or voice that reminds you of someone….

Your unconscious mind organizes all your memories in a chain of event. Things happen by steps or in relation of time.

All of us experienced using unconscious mind especially when mastering a skill. E.g. learning to play piano. First few times when you learn, you use so much of your conscious mind to play a piece of music. Slowly, the more you practice, the more the unconscious mind takes over. Like you know which and where your fingers should go next when playing the music.

Relax and calm (meditation) is the way to communicate with your unconscious mind. Many of us experienced that during an exam, we had this ‘I studied it before, but I can’t remember the answer!’ That was when we were at a very tense state. Then all the answers appeared in your mind once you stepped out of the exam hall, that was when you were very relax and calm. That is the reason why we encourage being relaxed and sleeping well before an exam.

Same goes for your self healing process. All you need is to have enough rest and your body will recuperate by itself when you are sick. And meditation helps to energize your body, which is when merging your conscious and unconscious mind. That is why to some, short 15 – 20 minutes ‘power nap’ (meditation) is so essential for them to reenergized for the long day.

I encourage you to MEDITATE WHENEVER IS POSSIBLE and CLEAR YOUR MIND WITH FREE OF THOUGHT.
