What is the subconscious mind?
The subconscious mind is the source of all known associations – all memory. Without judgement, the subconscious literally accepts all our background messages – genetic, social, religious or messages based on experience, whether positive or negative. The subconscious works from expectation and imagination and it does not register the difference between fact and fantasy. If the conscious mind does become overloaded, the more primitive area of the subconscious mind becomes triggered for fight or flight. Today, in modern society, fight/flight is experienced more in the form of anxiety or depression. When a lot of anxiety or stress is being felt by an individual, due to events of the day, without some relief, a hypersuggestible state may occur.
Your subconscious mind is that part of your mind that stores the sum of all your past experiences. It also allows you to perform automatic functions without thinking about them,such as driving a car while thinking about something else. The subconscious processes our thoughts that enter our conscious mind. Your subconscious mind takes thoughts that enter the conscious mind and processes them for you to act. When suggestions enter the subconscious mind, they are not filtered the way they are in the conscious mind.
