Your subconscious mind
The subconscious is the key to progress
The subconscious mind is the basis of 'personality' - it stores all your
memories, skills and resources. The subconscious mind learns, grows and adapts throughout life, making tasks that were once difficult and had to be consciously learnt (such as breathing, speaking or cleaning your teeth) into behaviour that now seems to happen naturally and automatically. These behaviours have become habit and can be done without conscious effort.
Many of the problematic issues in life are the result of your subconscious mind 'learning' an unwanted habit or inappropriate behaviour. For example, your subconscious mind might trigger a panic attack when you get into a car because you were once involved in a car accident. Your subconscious mind is aiming to protect you, but this positive intention can result in an unwanted emotional response to a seemingly innocent event.
But your subconscious mind can learn alternative ways to think, feel and behave.
Hypnotherapy works to communicate with the subconscious mind to 'relearn' more positive responses and behaviour, and so eliminate the unwanted habits. In hypnosis, the conscious mind is relaxed (in a similar way to meditation) in order to communicate the new learnings that you want to your subconscious mind.
