Brain Fact Friday on ”Unleashing the Power of Our Subconscious Mind”

“Every day we are influenced in countless ways by the world around us, and most of this flies completely under the radar of our conscious awareness” From Neuroscientist and Stanford Professor, David Eagleman’s, The Brain: The Story of You.

On today’s episode #291 on “Unleashing the Power of Our Subconscious Mind” we will cover:

✔ A review of where our podcast began, and where we are going.

✔  The importance of understanding our subconscious mind as it relates to our results.

✔ A look back at the history of this understanding, that goes back to visionaries in science and the arts (Francis Bacon, Descartes, etc).

✔ The unusual results Andrea saw with 12 teenagers who studied this concept, catching her attention, in the late 1990s.

✔ 6 STEPS you can use today, to expand your awareness, and help you to tap into the power of your subconscious mind.

Welcome back to Season 10 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning (that’s finally being taught in our schools today) and emotional intelligence training (used in our modern workplaces) for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren’t taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I’m Andrea Samadi, an author, and an educator with a passion for learning and launched this podcast 5 years ago with the goal of bringing ALL the leading experts together (in one place) to uncover the most current research that would back up how the brain learns best, taking us ALL to new, and often unimaginable heights.   

Welcome back! For those who tune in each week, you might have noticed this was the FIRST time we’ve taken a break with this podcast since we launched. It’s always been important for me to produce content every week, but this past month, we travelled to some places where there wasn’t always internet, so I decided it would be a good time to take a break, and think about where we began with this podcast, and where we are going, creating a clear vision moving forward, and putting our season theme of Part 2 of Going Back to the Basics into practice.

If you look at the image in the show notes, you can see where the vision for this podcast began by making a connection with the six social and emotional learning competencies[i] that you’ll be familiar with if you are in the field of education, or paying attention to the research.  These competencies include Growth Mindset, Responsible Decision-Making, Self-Awareness, Social-Awareness, Self-Regulation and Developing Relationships, and hundreds of research studies[ii] have confirmed positive outcomes for our next generation of students, adults and communities who implement these competencies.  Instead of covering social and emotional learning topics only for this podcast, (that I saw publishers begin to cover more thoroughly than I ever could on my own, using their research to prove efficacy), I decided to connect what I saw as “the missing link” for health, well-being, productivity and achievement on this podcast—an understanding of our brain, that I call Neuroscience 101.

Reflecting back on almost 300 episodes written, recorded and produced from June 2019 to today, it’s easy to notice the growth that has unfolded along the way, that I share on EPISODE #279[iii] on “Lessons Learned After Hitting the 300,000 Download Mile Marker,” or “The Top 10 ALL Time Most Listened to Episodes on Podcast.” I can’t miss out on EPISODE #233[iv] where we covered the “Top 12 YouTube Interviews” as chosen by YOU! These are all good ones to review.

In addition to the growth noticed over the years from feedback that YOU, the listener would send me, I also noticed a shift with the content in our interviews over the seasons.

In our early interviews, we were introduced to books, ideas and strategies that would orient us to the understanding of the brain and help us to break down topics like improving student success with Dr. John Dunlosky’s[v] research, or trauma in our schools, that we saw with EPISODE #168[vi] with Dr. Bruce Perry and his book What Happened to You, or EPISODE #60[vii] with Dr. Daniel Siegel on “The Benefits Behind a Meditation Practice.”  We moved through the research, season by season, covering the topics that I thought would help us to all gain a better understanding of the mind-brain-body connection.

Then, the focus turned towards health and wellness in 2020, which was an unexpected turn for me, but one that made a huge impact on me personally, allowing me to test out certain products, like the Fisher Wallace Brain Stimulator[viii], the Whoop[ix] fitness tracker, take a visit Dr. Daniel Amen’s Clinic[x] for a SPECT image brain scan, or even by learning how to improve Heart Rate Variability with the Lief Wearable HRV Device.[xi]  While producing these episodes, I was implementing the ideas myself, and often times along with my family members, for improved results. You can scan through the episode home page here or review the season descriptions below.

Season 1: Provides you with the tools, resources and ideas to implement proven strategies backed by the most current neuroscience research to help you to achieve the long-term gains of implementing a social and emotional learning program in your school, or emotional intelligence program in your workplace.
Season 2: Features high level guests who tie in social, emotional and cognitive strategies for high performance in schools, sports and the workplace.
Season 3: Ties in some of the top motivational business books and guest with the most current brain research to take your results and productivity to the next level.
Season 4: Brings in positive mental health and wellness strategies to help cope with the stresses of life, improving cognition, productivity and results.
Season 5: Continues with the theme of mental health and well-being with strategies for implementing practical neuroscience to improve results for schools, sports and the workplace.
Season 6: The Future of Educational Neuroscience and its impact on our next generation. Diving deeper into the Science of Learning.
Season 7: Brain Health and Well-Being (Focused on Physical and Mental Health).

Season 8: Brain Health and Learning (Focused on How An Understanding of Our Brain Can Improve Learning in Ourselves (adults, teachers, workers) as well as future generations of learners.
Season 9: Strengthening Our Foundations:  Neuroscience 101: Back to the Basics PART 1 
Season 10: Strengthening Our Foundations:  Neuroscience 101: Back to the Basics PART 2

You’ll see that while our first nine seasons were focused on orienting ourselves to the basics of neuroscience, Season 10 and moving forward I’d like to narrow our focus to improved mental and physical health, (building on the Top Health Staples) to understanding our consciousness and our identity, and help us to become crystal clear about who we are, why we are here, and what legacy we want to leave for others. You’ll see the guests we have coming up will drive our understanding of these topics forward, hopefully helping us to become better versions of ourselves, with the idea that when we arrive to where we want to go personally and professionally, that we next create a plan for the legacy that we’d like to leave behind to help others.

For today’s episode #291 we are going to pick up where we left off with our last episode where we dove into Stanford Professor and Neuroscientist, David Eagleman’s work. Let’s go back to where we left off the end of May with EPISODE #290[xii] and dive into today’s episode on “Unleashing the Power of Our Subconscious Mind.”  

In Chapter 1 of David Eagleman’s The Brain: The Story of You, he explains how our identity is a moving target. He says: “Who you are depends on where you’ve been. Your brain is a relentless shape-shifter, constantly rewriting its own circuitry—and because your experiences are unique, so are the vast, detailed patterns in your neural networks. Because they continue to change your whole life, your identity is a moving target: it never reaches an endpoint.” David Eagleman’s, The Brain: The Story of You.

THE CONSCIOUS MIND:

In our last episode, we uncovered from David Eagleman’s work that the “conscious mind-the part you think of as you—is really the smallest part of what’s happening in your brain” making me take a look at the graphic on The Levels of Awareness, that I created after reading an article called “The Easy Problems of Consciousness”[xiii] from National Geographic. If we look (all the way to the right) at the FULLY aware column, that’s like the 10% of the tip of the iceberg that we can see consisting of our ability to THINK. To truly discover WHO we ARE, we’ll need to dive into the depths of our subconscious mind (under the surface of the water) to learn and explore more about the other 90% and peel back the layers, of who we truly are.

FINDING ANSWERS BY DIVING INTO OUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND:

You’ll notice that we will be spending more time moving forward looking at ways we can improve our levels of awareness, so we can take this knowledge, to eventually help others, after improving ourselves. This will be the key to building a strong legacy that will exist long after you move from this physical plane, that we call earth. And if we want to improve our own results in this process, we’ve got to open up the keyhole to our levels of awareness. Imagine a tiny dot expanding as your mind expands. Or instead of peeking through the tiny keyhole of a doorway you want opened, blast open your mind and kick the whole door down instead. Or forget about the door, and break a window to gain entry into this new awareness that you’d like to achieve.  This all begins by understanding who we are, (we are not just our name) and we can expand ourselves even further as we learn how to use this marvelous power of our mind that J.B Rhine, from Duke University would say is “the greatest power of all creation.”

As you are listening to this, doesn’t it make you want to knock down some doors (blasting through some of YOUR subconscious blocks)? Things that you’re aware have been holding you back from where you KNOW you’re supposed to be? These are only your conscious blocks. Like I’ve heard people say “I want to stop self-sabotaging” with their health or relationships.

There are some parts of us we are consciously aware of, but other blocks, might take some time to reveal themselves.

It just blows my mind that something so powerful, (our sub-conscious mind- or all that exists below the water level with that iceberg photo) that controls so much of who we are, is not taught to us in school. It’s here that I think some of the previous work and study I did in the seminar industry can help us to understand what David Eagleman was talking about in his book, The Brain when he said that the “conscious mind is the smallest part of what’s happening in your brain.”

This was at the heart of EVERY seminar I’ve ever attended. If we REALLY want to understand who we are, and be in control of where we are going, understanding the 90% of us, where our beliefs, creativity, emotions, habits, intuition and values all exist, is crucial if we want to be in control of the future that we want to create.

GOING BACK TO THE BASICS: THE HISTORY

If we go back to our Think and Grow Rich Book Study, that we covered at the start of 2022, Napoleon Hill wrote a whole chapter on the subconscious mind (Chapter 13) that we covered on EPISODE #195[xiv] and then he reminds us to re-read Chapter 4 on Auto-Suggestion, which is the medium that influences the subconscious mind.  This book was first written in 1937, showing us how far back this concept goes.

Since this time, there are many others who cover this topic just as thoroughly as Napoleon Hill, like author Brian Tracey[xv], who explains why this understanding is important on his blog, in his books and all of the seminars he conducted. Tracey shares that “since your subconscious mind has such a great amount of control over your positive and negative behaviors, the key is to train your brain to produce more positive behaviors.” If you’ve ever read Brian Tracey’s work, you’ll know it’s all centered around productivity and success. The subconscious mind and how to take control of it, runs at the heart of his message.

In my early days of working in the seminar industry, and learning from the top speakers around the world, I saw that this concept wasn’t new. I was even given a box full of material to study, joining many prominent people in the fields of science or the arts, who also studied the material I was given from an invitation only method. I read the same words that visionaries like Francis Bacon (1561-1626), Rene Decartes (1596-1650), Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), or Isaac Newton (1642-1727) read, and was told to keep this box of materials a secret. It’s full of lessons that focused on using our mind to help us in all areas of our life, including our health, and is not far off from The Silva Mind Control Method[xvi] that we covered thoroughly this year. Understanding the levels of consciousness was taught in the introduction to this program, and as we progressed into month three of the course, autosuggestion and the subconscious mind were covered, showing again just how far back these concepts go.

Moving forward, I’m hoping that science will reveal some answers to why certain practices from years past, yield noticeable results. I’d like to keep these practices less of a “secret” for anyone to use for themselves or for the benefit of others. Just keep an open mind here, and follow along with the images in the show notes that I’ll use to explain the importance of understanding our conscious, and sub-conscious mind as it relates to WHO we are, and then how we can use this understanding to put our goals on auto-pilot, creating results that will truly boggle our minds. Sorry the notes I wrote are a bit messy, as I wrote them years ago, and didn’t think I’d be sharing them years later. You’ll get the idea.

DO YOU KNOW THIS ALREADY?

As we move forward, this understanding might be something you already know, or have heard of before, but until you can explain it to someone else, it warrants a review. If you stay with me here, I can guarantee that the application of this understanding has the potential to shift your life in ways you’ll never believe. I’ve been working with these ideas since those early days of working in the seminar industry (25 years ago) when I first watched 12 teenagers skyrocket their results with this understanding, and I still pick up something new each time I look at this. When I first saw these concepts yielding results after a relatively short period of time with those teens, it literally knocked the breath out of me. Something I’ve come to notice happens when I can see someone achieving quantum leaps with their results—it’s hard to look away from something this magical.

YOUTH MENTOR INTERNATIONAL (1999-2002): The Fundamentals of Life.

For those who don’t know where I first learned this concept, it started back in the late 1990s when I worked with Bob Proctor on a program for teens called Youth Mentor International. This program that I helped Proctor to create and deliver, covered the understanding of our subconscious mind, and how to put our goals on auto-pilot.  The results of this program for these 12 teens was absolutely astounding. You can review the interview with Bob Proctor on EPISODE #66[xvii], where we reminisced about our time working together, shocked that it close to 25 years ago, revisiting the results we saw with those teens.  You can see an image of where this program began, with cassette tapes covering these foundational topics, years before we could stream content around the world via podcasting or video. 

As I started to write this episode, I knew I had to go back to the Basics, and look at these tapes. Notice the title of the program: Youth Mentor International Fundamentals. This is what we taught ALL kids (ages 10 and up) around the world, each week.  The Fundamentals of Life.

Tape 1: Building an Emotional Appeal of a Future Promise (where we helped the kids to see the power of visualization) and building their future on the screen on their minds.

Tape 2: We Think in Pictures: which takes our visualization skills to that next step, honing in on a detailed picture of our goals and dreams.

Tape 3: The Conscious Mind and the Senses: showing the kids that there was a world beyond their 5 senses, or the importance of being aware of the “unseen world.”

Tape 4: The Subconscious Mind and the Body: that took students into the lesson I’ll share with you here today, or diving into the 90% of that part of us that remains under water, in the iceberg photo.

Tape 5: The Faculties of the Mind (that we will cover on our next episode).

Tape 6: Review and Application of the Fundamentals.

After watching the success of those teens all those years ago, I put my hat here, and decided to keep looking for what else could possibly take our understanding of who we are to greater heights. This program had such potential, but fell apart after Sept. 11^th happened. I tried to carry the torch forward, and learned from educators along the way, like you see with can see when I re-connected with Jeff Kleck, from EPISODE #246[xviii] who changed the direction I would take with this material in the schools, leading me to focus less on the spiritual side, leaning more on science, or how the brain impacts our learning. I know connecting the science to these concepts is integral, so my focus has moved to watching and learning from the leading experts in science, to bring credibility to the ideas I saw working with those young students all those years ago.

UNDERSTANDING AND USING THE SUB-CONSCIOUS MIND

The key is to understand how our MIND works, and that it’s separate from our BRAIN. When we figure this out, it’s like all of the pieces of the puzzle start to fit.  Can you imagine putting a puzzle together without the lid, or the picture of the completed puzzle? That’s almost like what we are doing when we are living life without a picture of our mind, and how we can use it. How do we better understand the part of us that exists under water in the iceberg image? I don’t know about you, but I’d rather be in control of this ship called life, than to let it drift aimlessly at sea.

REVIEW OF THINK AND GROW RICH: CHAPTER 13 THE SUBCONSCIOUS MIND

If you listened to our Think and Grow Rich Book Study, (EPISODE #195) you will remember when Napoleon Hill reminded us that “The subconscious mind works day and night” (CH 12, Page 230, TAGR) and that you “cannot entirely control your subconscious mind, but you can voluntarily hand over to it, any plan, desire or purpose you wish to be transformed into concrete form.” (CH 12, Page 230, TAGR) He suggested that we go back to Chapter 4 on Autosuggestion and read this chapter again to become familiar with how to make use of this part of our mind that remains hidden to our eyes, but holds the power to move us to great heights.

RAISING OUR LEVELS OF AWARENESS: UNDERSTANDING THE CONSCIOUS AND SUB-CONSCIOUS MIND

IMAGE 1: This is a concept I wrote about with permission from Bob Proctor, in my first book, The Secret for Teens Revealed[xix]. The concept you see in this image of the mind and body originated with the late Dr. Thurman Fleet of San Antonio Texas, circa 1934. Dr. Fleet was the founder of Concept Theory. Bob Proctor was taught this concept from a child psychiatrist from Florida, Dr. John Mike, who transformed millions of others around the world with this understanding. It was this concept that also transformed the results of those teenagers all those years ago who learned how important it was to understand that we think in pictures, starting with this image.

If you look at the image, imagine the conscious mind as the top part of your head, and the sub-conscious is the bottom part. Attached to the conscious part of our mind, is our 5 senses, or what we see, hear, smell, taste and touch. This idea teaches us to look BEYOND our 5 senses, (what we see, hear, smell, taste and touch) and begin to develop our higher faculties of our mind that go beyond our senses with (reason, intuition, perception, will, memory and imagination). While working with students with this material, I became very interested in helping them to expand their thinking and even created a video program that teaches these concepts to students, that you can find on the Udemy platform today, called The Secret for Teens Revealed: A 10-Step Blueprint.[xx]

Another way to think about all of this, is that David Eagleman reminded us that our “conscious mind-the part you think of as you—is really the smallest part of what’s happening in your brain” so to develop the largest part of our brain, would be to learn what’s happening in the depths of our subconscious.

The conscious mind is important, as it will be this part of our mind that holds our willpower, and our ability to think.

IMAGE 2: Shows us of the importance of autosuggestion that Napoleon Hill covered in Chapter 4 of Think and Grow Rich. My diagram here shows that we can change our results in life, by changing what we think about—see how I’ve written in the conscious mind “We can think.” What we think about will change our self-image, or the image I see of myself. You can do this by thinking or repeating something with emotion which explains why affirmations repeated over time can change your self-image, when they are repeated with emotion, but this process does take time.

Since we can THINK with our conscious mind, we can use the power of our SUBCONSCIOUS MIND to work for us, rather than against us and build ourselves into a new and improved version of ourselves, which creates BELIEF. This part of our mind accepts WHATEVER we give it. We build pictures in our conscious mind, we impress them upon our subconscious mind, and the images we create are expressed in our body, that moves into action, and produces results.

IMAGE 3: HELPS US TO BRING ORDER TO OUR MIND FOR GUARANTEED RESULTS

IMAGE SOURCE: The Secret for Teens Revealed, Samadi, Page 71

 

1. THE CONSCIOUS/THINKING MIND:

Once we can see how the 3 parts of our mind work together, we bring order to our mind with this image, for guaranteed results. With time, you can learn to use your CONSCIOUS MIND to THINK clearly and build the pictures of what you really want. And what you think about does show up on the outside. In this diagram, I’d written that if I am embarrassed, your body can respond to that thought physical, by blushing, and we’ve covered how reading the emotions in others is something we can easily learn to do.

2. THE SUBCONSCIOUS/EMOTIONAL MIND:

With practice, you’ll see that whatever you turn over to your subconscious mind, with emotion added, over time can change your results with this idea of auto-suggestion. This is why Napoleon Hill says we’ve got to read our goals out loud daily, for this process to occur.  

BUT WAIT: What if there’s something I want, and I’m doing everything you are saying, but I still don’t have this thing that I want? We will cover this more later, but it goes back to understanding our PARADIGMS that control who we are. There is lots to learn here, so just keep studying, revealing more and more about yourself along the way.

If you see yourself with great results…and these results aren’t happening…there’s more work to be done. Remember, THERE’S NOTHING WRONG WITH YOU, but the layers of the subconscious mind just need more work.

3. THE BODY: When you hold something on the screen of your mind, consistently over a period of time, you’ll eventually see the results that change your conditions, circumstances and environment, which is the third part of the image.

We’ve talked about this process often on the podcast, especially with people we’ve interviewed who have transformed their life over the years, like Ryan O’Neill from EPISODE #203.[xxi] Over time, we can train our subconscious mind to work for us, putting our results on auto-pilot, and these result change who we are over time.

HOW DO YOU ACTIVATE YOUR SUB-CONSCIOUS MIND AND INCREASE YOUR LEVEL OF AWARENESS?

The first step in this process is to go back over the 3 parts of the mind and see if you can explain this picture of the mind, and how it operates to someone else. Once you can see how the conscious-mind, subconscious mind and the body, work together to achieve outstanding results, and you can share this understanding with someone else who can see what you see, then you’re on the right track, and you should be able to use this concept in your own life.

You’ve just got to do the work to strengthen your mind, and there’s more we will cover more next week, but for now, begin with these 6 STEPS to INCREASE YOUR LEVEL OF AWARENESS, UNLEASHING THE POWER OF YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND.

1. LEARN TO THINK IN PICTURES: VISUALIZE: This was one of the first skills that we taught to the teens when they were beginning to set goals, and it’s a skill I’m still working on improving. Jose Silva’s program is the best I’ve ever seen for improving your ability to visualize. If you struggle with seeing an image on the screen of your mind, just start slowly, with pieces of fruit like an apple, or a lemon, and with time, you’ll notice you’ll begin to see more.
2. START TO MEDITATE (and keep developing this practice): This one will always be at the top of the list as a daily meditation practice will help you to access parts of your mind that you might not be aware of. Jose Silva’s program took this practice to the next level for me, and is what I work on daily now. I also love Dan Siegels Wheel of Awareness meditation. There’s no right or wrong place to begin here. Just start with something you feel connected to, and stay open minded to trying something new to expand your awareness in still, quiet, thought.
3. DREAM: Not everyone will say their dreams can open up their mind to new thoughts and ideas, but they do for me. If you want to improve this area, make sure you are getting enough REM sleep each night, and see if you can remember what you dreamt about. Write down your dreams, and see if there’s anything you can learn from them. It might not happen overnight, but if you can be consistent here, you’ll gain incredible insight from this time that your conscious mind goes to sleep, and your unconscious mind soars.
4. SET GOALS: There was this activity I would do with the teens I worked with called the 101 goal list. I remember learning this from the Chicken Soup for Soul author, Mark Victor Hansen, and I think he learned it from a teenager. The idea is that you sit down, and write out 101 things that you want to BE/DO/HAVE. It doesn’t have to be material things, but can also be experiences you’d like to have, or places  you’d like to visit. I remember doing this activity for the first time at an airport. After the first 25 things, I couldn’t think of any more. The idea is that if you can keep going, you’ll begin to tap into your subconscious mind, and begin writing things you might not be consciously aware of. I still have that original list that has somewhere around #50 that I’d like to swim with sharks. I have no idea where this came from, as it’s not something I’ve consciously thought about. Try this activity and see what you discover about yourself.
5. READ YOUR GOALS OUT LOUD: This one really works and might be why saying affirmations out loud works over time. There is a power that comes from reading what you want out loud. Try it. It will feel weird in the beginning, until you switch and begin to own what you are saying. Over time, you will start to believe what you read everyday, and when the belief is there, so will be your goal.
6. BE OPEN TO LEARNING FROM OTHERS: This one goes without saying. Of course if you are listening to this podcast, you will be open to learning from others. But would you purchase a ticket to hear someone speak, or jump on a plane and fly somewhere to meet someone you know you could learn from? Proctor used to do this all the time. I loved his stories of when he would sit in the back of the room and listen to people speaking that he wanted to learn from. These were always life-changing connections and if you’ve ever experienced this, you’ll agree with me that they are well worth the time and effort. If there’s something you are working on, and you’re stuck in some way, you’ll be able to easily put the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle into place with the power that comes from two or more minds working together.

REVIEW AND CONCLUSION:

To review and conclude this EPISODE #291 on “Unleashing the Power of Our Subconscious Mind” we reviewed our vision for this podcast, where we began and where we we’d like to go over the next 10 seasons.

We picked up from where we left off the end of May, with Neuroscientist David Eagleman’s work, urging us to look closer at the subconscious mind, since it controls 90% of who we truly are.

We reviewed the history of the subconscious mind and why this concept is a foundational step for us in the process of learning who we are.

We looked at 6 STEPS for expanding our level of consciousness by diving deeper into developing our SUBCONSCIOUS MIND.

This is just the beginning. Next week we will look at the Faculties of the Mind vs the 5 Senses to Expand our level of awareness more, but until then, think about this quote from James Allen, who wrote the book, As a Man Thinketh.

He said

“Mind is the master power that molds and makes:

And Man is Mind,

And Evermore He Takes the Tool of Thought,

And Shapes What He Wills,

Brings Forth a Thousand Joys,

A Thousand Ills,

He Thinks is Secret and it Comes to Pass,

Environment is But His Looking Glass.”

The goal is to understand how our mind works, so we can get our thoughts, feelings and actions lined up. That’s integrity and not everyone has it.

When you can line up how you think, feel and act, the magic happens.

What we THINK on a daily basis really matters for where we are going.

If the AHA moments haven't happened yet, (or nothing outstanding seems to jump out at you) come back next week, and I’ll add some more, with the goal of helping you to expand YOUR awareness, by “seeing” this marvelous power that’s held within the depths of our subconscious minds.  

See you next week.
