The Power Of The Subconscious Mind
Can you feel the shirt on your back?
Can you feel your tongue not finding a comfortable place in your mouth?
Can you feel each breath becoming conscious that you take?
Sorry about that.
Before you read this you probably did not consider any of them, but as soon as you put your attention on it your mind switched from dealing with these feelings on a subconscious level to a conscious one.
So much so that now you are annoyed by all three and cannot stop thinking about it.
Now, can you move your finger?
Can you twist it, bend it, can you point with it and do a wave with all your fingers on your hand?
Can you close your eyes, can you lift your arm, can you stretch your leg?
Chances are good you can do all of them… but how are you doing them?
How are you moving all the muscles in your body to such an extend?
You’re not consciously controlling them are you?
So what is?
And now consider you are going to the store.
You are walking down the candy aisle and, without a thought, grab your favorite candy.
