Changing Your Consciousness and Changing You with Hypnotherapy

A state of consciousness is like an energy field that attracts emotions and situations which empower that state of consciousness in return.

Many believe that consciousness is shifting. If that’s true, will humans basically be the same, just nicer and more accepting? Or will bigger changes occur? What will we be able to do?

As babies, when we had developed enough to become mobile, we began crawling. Soon after, something inside urged us to stand upright and walk. Why would we go from the stability of hands and knees, firmly supported on the ground, to balancing precariously on wobbly legs and tiny feet? Intuitively we must have known it was time for more: we sensed that walking would give us more freedom and greater experiences than crawling. We somehow knew walking would improve our lives.

So have we reached our full potential?

We appear to be transforming once again. Just as the ability to stand and walk was always within us, and we eventually reached the stage when it was time for that ability to surface, something greater in us is emerging. Most aren’t aware that there’s something profound happening with humankind. There is evidence that a transformation is already taking place.

Why should we pay attention to this?

To paraphrase Einstein, we cannot solve a problem from the same level of thinking, with the same mind, that created the problem in the first place. He also said, “A new type of thinking is essential if mankind is to survive and move toward higher levels.”

So in order to change our world, we need to change our thinking. Our understanding of who we are, our capabilities, how we interact with each other, and what we can accomplish have to evolve.

Quantum physicists are also making discoveries and reexamining everything we’ve believed about reality. They have evidence that reality isn’t what we believe it is.

We’ve been taught that reality is three-dimensional – and it fits with what our physical senses tell us so we’ve had no reason to question it. But the evidence is showing we are not just three-dimensional. We are infinite, multidimensional beings! We also have inherent skills that are beyond what most people believe are possible. Many of us are living proof that these greater abilities are real, however; we can do things beyond the accepted boundaries. And if some of us have expanded abilities, everyone has them.

What are these greater abilities? Thousands of us experience a sixth sense and telepathy. Many of us see energy fields (auras), and can use energy, thoughts, and feelings to create. We’ve discovered the existence of parallel universes and can deliberately move in and out of them to change our lives. We talk to people who have crossed over (died), and see people’s other lives (past lives.)

The most important point to this is that if thousands of us have these amazing abilities, it means these are natural skills and every human being has them. Most people just aren’t aware of this yet – or they’ve been taught to fear them.

Developing any of these abilities can dramatically improve life. For many of us, these abilities have made life easier, increased our sense of freedom, and created more compassion, love, trust and understanding. Globally, it can improve our relations with one another and help us create better, life-enhancing solutions for the world. Once more of us understand the natural principles of the universe and develop these abilities, we can all create with a sense of infinite possibilities rather than constrict in fear and limited thinking.

Unfortunately, most people are not living this new model yet. Most are still living with old ideas about the world. Quantum physics supports these abilities through the discoveries of entanglement, non-local mind, parallel universes, and more.

Imagine you’re told aerodynamics is a natural law and flight is possible; you can fly across the country in hours (once considered science fiction.) But you choose to travel across the country in a covered wagon instead. We’re doing something similar today: We’re not living the newest discoveries or developments. Our limited understanding of reality has been preventing us from living our potential.

Because there are thousands of people demonstrating these abilities, we can no longer ignore them or declare them flukes. If even one person can demonstrate these skills, don’t we have a responsibility, an obligation, to see what’s going on? Isn’t it possible that humanity could benefit by exploring these abilities more closely and discovering what’s truly possible?

The fact that many of us experience these abilities proves that there is more to us than we’ve been taught, and the fact that many of us use these skills to benefit others as well as ourselves shows there are good reasons to develop them.

We are evolving into a more highly developed species, one with expanded awareness and greater abilities. Or it may be that we are finally waking up to our true nature. We’ve lived too long thinking we’re just little pawns on the chessboard – and acting as if we have little or no power. It’s time to reassess our definition of human being and live our greater potential here and now.

If enough of us were to courageously step beyond our familiar boundaries, embrace this new information about the nature of reality, and fully activate our own advanced capabilities, we could have a vastly different world and a better way of life. This is how transformation happens: brave explorers break through old thinking and reveal what’s possible.

Become aware of the power that can be found in our consciousness

Mankind is only starting to become aware of the intricacies of our consciousness.  It is so vast, that we struggle to understand the complexities involved with it.

We do know that our consciousness includes our conscious mind, our subconscious mind, and then the unconscious mind (which is linked to the subconscious mind).

A good analogy to use to explain this is to consider the composition of an iceberg.

When we observe an iceberg, what we generally become aware of is the portion of the iceberg which is above the waterline. Many of us assume that this is the entire iceberg.  The fact is that this portion amounts to about 10% of the entire mass.  We can equate that 10% above the waterline to our conscious minds. It’s the part of our consciousness that we are aware of.  While we are engaging in conscious-mind activity, we are emitting beta brainwaves. We use our conscious minds to think, analyse, criticize, judge, and rationalise. We hold a certain amount of space within the conscious mind for memory, but it is a finite amount, and so what we automatically do is prioritize which memories we feel are important to hold on to, and which memories we can simply just forget about, eg what we may have had for dinner 6 weeks ago on a Wednesday.

Conscious memory usually only goes back as far as age 5 or 6.

The subconscious mind can be equated with the 90% of the iceberg which is below the waterline. We generally aren’t aware of it. It is incredibly powerful, and it powers the conscious mind, usually without us even realizing it.

The subconscious mind is a very literal portion of our consciousness, and quite simple or uncomplicated, but still massively powerful. While we are in a subconscious state, we are emitting alpha (light trance) and theta (deeper trance) brainwaves. While we are in this state, we are still aware of what is going on around us, although we are very relaxed.

The first aspect of the subconscious mind is that it is a massive data capturer. It has captured the memory of every single experience that we have ever had, since birth or even before that – so if we were asked what we had for dinner 6 weeks ago on Wednesday while we were in a subconscious state (ie hypnosis), we would remember that information effortlessly. We can also go back to memories before age 5 or 6 while in a subconscious state – we can even remember being in utero, which is quite amazing. We are fully developed subconsciously right from this stage.

The second aspect of the subconscious mind is that it is the seat of emotion – it’s where emotion stems from – and it drives behavior based on that emotion. The interesting thing is that whatever behavior the subconscious chooses to drive (based on the corresponding emotion), it always has a positive intent in mind, although we may not be consciously aware of what that positive intent is – in fact, we will usually consciously consider that behavior to be negative. It’s often what drives a person to seek therapy. An example could be engaging in a compulsive behavior such as drinking or drugging. Consciously we see that behavior as negative, and it is negative considering that it will probably cause physical, mental and emotional damage.  However, engaging in that compulsive behavior is a subconscious attempt at escaping certain emotions or memories. Compulsive behaviors or addictions are almost always engaged in as a result of past trauma of some kind – either remembered or consciously forgotten. It’s a subconscious attempt at seeking a state of serenity.

The third aspect of the subconscious mind is that it is where our belief system resides.  Our belief system is made up very early in life.  It is formed as a result of the experiences we have had very early in life, as well as things we have been told or taught by people in authority in our lives such as our parent or teachers. It is usually fully formed by around age 7, and that is the belief system that we carry with us going forward. So if we had experiences early in life which caused us to believe that we are not good enough, for example, that is what we will believe about ourselves for the rest of our lives, no matter how much success we may experience going forward. We can make conscious attempts to address that, such as the use of positive affirmations etc. These may perhaps make a small temporary difference, but will never change our underlying belief about ourselves.  The only way to positively re-program our belief system is by working subconsciously, which can lead to amazing positive changes.

We become unconscious when we go into a state of sleep. In this state we are not in a state of awareness.  In this state we are emitting delta brainwaves. Subconscious activity such as dreaming can happen in this unconscious state.

Knowing how powerful the subconscious mind is, and what it is made up of, it therefore becomes clear how healing hypnotherapy can be as a modality.
