HOW DOES THE SUBCONSCIOUS WORK?
Transcript
00:00The mysterious labyrinth of the subconscious a hidden universe within us have you ever had a
00:05moment where an idea suddenly appeared in your mind seemingly out of nowhere or perhaps a dream
00:11that felt too real as if it carried a hidden message these are glimpses into a vast mysterious
00:18world the realm of the subconscious the human mind is like an iceberg what we consciously perceive is
00:25only the tip while the subconscious deep silent and unseen forms the massive foundation beneath
00:31it holds our forgotten memories suppressed emotions and hidden desires it influences our decisions
00:38shapes our fears and even controls our habits often without us realizing it but how does it work
00:45what unseen forces guide our thoughts and actions to answer these questions we must dive into the
00:52depths of the mind into the part of us that we rarely acknowledge but that ultimately shapes who
00:58we are the silent guardian how the subconscious protects us the subconscious is not just a storage
01:04of past experiences it is a protector imagine walking alone at night and suddenly an uneasy feeling creeps
01:12in your heart beats faster and your senses sharpen but why it's not your conscious mind that warns you
01:19it's the subconscious it processes thousands of details in the background subtle noises movements in the
01:25shadows even the way the air feels if something resembles a past danger the subconscious sends a
01:32warning triggering instincts of caution or fear this protective mechanism explains why we sometimes just have a bad
01:40feeling about a person or a situation our subconscious picks up on micro expressions voice tones and hidden
01:48details that our conscious mind overlooks a famous example of this is the story of a firefighter who once
01:55ordered his team out of a burning house seconds before the floor collapsed he later said he didn't know why he
02:02just had a gut feeling in reality his subconscious noticed that the fire was behaving unusually processing years of
02:10experience in an instant and sending an urgent signal to act but the subconscious doesn't just protect us from
02:17physical danger it also shields us from emotional pain hiding traumatic memories until we are ready to
02:24face them the language of symbols how the subconscious speaks unlike our conscious thoughts which are
02:30structured in words and logic the subconscious speaks in symbols emotions and patterns this is why dreams are
02:38often bizarre and surreal the subconscious does not communicate directly it wraps its messages in metaphors a
02:45person drowning in a dream might not literally fear water but could be overwhelmed by emotions or
02:51responsibilities artists writers and musicians often say their best ideas come in flashes of inspiration
02:59these moments are the subconscious breaking through presenting thoughts in ways that feel sudden and
03:05unexpected the famous inventor nikola tesla claimed that entire designs appeared in his mind as if they had always
03:12existed he simply received them so how do we better understand what the subconscious is telling us
03:19some psychologists suggest paying close attention to recurring symbols and dreams
03:24noticing repeated thoughts or impulses and even practicing free wearing where you let your hand move without
03:31consciously thinking allowing your deeper thoughts to surface the power of hidden programming how the subconscious shapes
03:38are reality what if i told you that much of what you believe about yourself was planted there
03:44not by choice but by repetition the subconscious is shaped by early experiences repeated messages and social
03:52conditioning think about this a child who is constantly told they are not good enough will carry that belief
03:58into adulthood even if it is not true their subconscious mind absorbs it like a sponge and later their actions
04:06will reflect this internal programming they might sabotage their own success avoid challenges or struggle with
04:14self-doubt without even knowing why this is why affirmations visualization and meditation can be powerful tools
04:22by feeding the subconscious new messages we can reprogram deep-seated beliefs and change how we perceive the world
04:30athletes visualize their victories before stepping onto the field and successful people repeat
04:36empowering mantras not because it is magic but because the subconscious listens and adapts
04:42the illusion of free will are we really in control now here is a thought that may unsettle you if the
04:48subconscious plays such a powerful role in our decisions how much of what we do is truly a choice
04:55experiments in neuroscience have revealed something astonishing the brain often makes decisions before we
05:02we are even aware of them scientists measuring brain activity found that a choice appears in the subconscious
05:08before a person consciously decides this raises deep philosophical questions about free will are we simply
05:16acting out patterns written in our subconscious long before we became aware of them or can we take control
05:22and reshape our destiny the answer is both troubling and hopeful while much of our behavior is driven by hidden forces
05:30awareness awareness is the first step to breaking free by becoming conscious of our subconscious patterns we gain
05:38the power to rewrite them awakening the subconscious how to harness its power so how can we access and use
05:45the power of the subconscious meditation and mindfulness by quieting the conscious mind we allow the deeper
05:52self to emerge many great thinkers claim that their best insights come in moments of stillness
05:58dream analysis dream analysis keeping a dream journal can reveal patterns and messages from the subconscious
06:05helping us understand our hidden fears and desires creative expression art music and writing allow subconscious
06:13thoughts to surface in unexpected ways some of the greatest masterpieces in history were created by artists
06:20tapping into their subconscious minds repetition and visualization what we tell ourselves daily shapes our
06:27subconscious programming positive affirmations visualization exercises and rewriting negative self-beliefs can
06:35transform how we see ourselves in the world paying attention to intuition that quiet inner voice
06:42that sudden feeling often the subconscious is trying to communicate the more we listen the more we
06:48understand the final mystery is the subconscious connected to something greater and now we reach the most
06:55intriguing question of all if the subconscious holds infinite ideas memories and instincts beyond our conscious
07:03grasp could it be connected to something even larger than ourselves some theories suggest that the
07:09subconscious is not isolated but linked to a greater collective intelligence carl jung spoke of the collective
07:16unconscious a deep shared reservoir of human knowledge and archetypes that transcends individual experience
07:24throughout history mystics and philosophers have claimed that intuition inspiration and even
07:30permonitions come from this hidden well of wisdom is it possible that our subconscious is not just a personal
07:36archive but a gateway to something beyond something vast mysterious and universal science has yet to answer this
07:44question definitively but one thing remains certain within each of us lies an unseen force shaping our lives in ways
07:52we are only beginning to understand so the next time you get a strange feeling an unexpected idea or a dream
08:00that lingers pause for a moment it may just be your subconscious whispering offering you a key to a deeper truth
08:08and perhaps by listening you might just uncover something extraordinary
