It is simply running old programs that produce that effect. It is doing so out of ignorance rather than spite or revenge.
or you can learn to communicate with the subconscious in a user-friendly way it understands (the path of least resistance) and make it your best friend.
Making friends with your subconscious mind is a lot like making friends with another person. The more you know about the other person’s preferred communication style and personal preferences, the more you can communicate with him or her effectively.
As was mentioned earlier, the conscious mind thinks abstractly, while the subconscious thinks literally.
An important difference between the two language styles is that the subconscious mind can know things only through the five senses of seeing, hearing, feeling, tasting and smelling.
The notion of happiness or fun has little meaning to the subconscious until the idea is translated into what is called sensory-based language.
This sensory based language is critical. I have to master this.
Chapter 3 The Mind/Body Connection
Communicating with the Subconscious Mind
What Is Muscle Testing and How Does It Work?
George Goodheart, D.C., the founder of Applied Kinesiology, introduced muscle testing in the United States.
muscle testing is also an easy and effective way to communicate directly with the subconscious mind for purposes of discovering self-sabotaging beliefs.
One theory about how muscle testing works is that the electrical signal is dramatically affected by the thoughts being contemplated in the mind.
When the mind is holding a stressful thought, an electrical conflict is created in the brain and the signal strength to the body is reduced, resulting in a weakened muscle response.
The same thing happens when a person makes a statement with which the subconscious mind disagrees. The conflict between the conscious and subconscious mind results in a weakened response in the muscles of th...

Consequently, muscle testing can be used to determine what thoughts are stressful to the body, as well as what ideas (beliefs) are supported or not supported at a subconscious level.
Test results will be clearer if the statements are made with emotion. In other words, say the statements like you really mean them and stay focused on the statement while being muscle tested.
Chapter 4 Whole-Brain Integration
Left-Brain/Right-Brain/Whole-Brain
“Brain Dominance Theory,”
Although our birthright is the natural ability to operate simultaneously out of both sides of the brain, life experiences often trigger a dominance of one side over the other when responding to specific situations.
The more emotionally charged the experience is (usually traumatic), the more likely it is that the conclusion we draw from it will be stored for future reference, and the more likely it is that we will automatically overidentify with only one hemisphere of the brain when faced with similar life experiences in the future.
The goal is to increase “cross-talk” between the two brain hemispheres, thereby achieving a more whole-brained state, which is ide...

Chapter 5 The Power and Biology of Beliefs
To change the printout of the body, you must learn to rewrite the software of the mind. –Deepak Chopra, M.D., Perfect Health, 1990

Your beliefs are the building blocks of your personality. They define you as worthy or worthless, powerful or powerless, competent or incompetent, trusting or suspicious, belonging or outcast, self-reliant or dependent, flexible or judgmental, fairly treated or victimized, loved or hated. Your beliefs have far-reaching consequences, both positive and negative, in every area of your life. Beliefs affect your self-est...

These subconscious beliefs create the perceptual filters through which we respond to life’s challenges.
Beliefs establish the limits of what we can achieve.
As Henry Ford once said, If you believe you can, or if you believe you can’t… you’re right! It is especially true when the beliefs are subconscious.
First, it is important to recognize that your mind is not your brain,
Your mind is the energy that interpenetrates and surrounds your brain. In
Quantum physics leads us to the conclusion that in the final analysis everything is energy. Whether energy expresses itself as physical or nonphysical is a matter of the speed at which molecules vibrate, rather than some intrinsic difference in the energy itself.
paradigm pioneer and cell biologist Bruce H. Lipton, Ph.D., says that each one of the estimated 50-70 trillion cells that make up the human body is in fact a computer chip capable of input, output, and memory.
When you realize that human beings consist of trillions of programmable cells, it is especially important to know how the cells get programmed and how you can reprogram them.
In the Beginning There Was Conception
It is nature’s way of educating the child to his or her environment before having to deal with it directly, thereby increasing the odds for the survival of the child, and hence the species.
research shows that we are most programmable from conception to about age six. During that time we have little or no faculty of conscious discernment.
according to Emmanuel Donchin, director of the Laboratory for Cognitive Psychophysiology at the University of Illinois, “As much as 99 percent of cognitive activity may be nonconscious.”
So the next question is: Can detrimental or outdated parental and societal software be changed? The answer is yes. Using PSYCH-K belief change processes, it’s never to late to have a functional childhood!

Speaking the Language of the Subconscious
The subconscious mind is sensory based and knows the world only through the five senses: visual (seeing), auditory (hearing), kinesthetic (feeling), gustatory (tasting), and olfactory (smelling). Consequently, effective communication with the subconscious is achieved by using one or more of these senses.
people who visualize easily can use the visual modality to communicate a message to the subconscious by making a mental picture of what they want.
People who are auditory processors are affected by sound in ways that others are not. They hear the subtle nuances in a voice or in a piece of music. They can use this ability to communicate with the subconscious and usually benefit by listening to audiotape presentations.
The kinesthetic processors are unusually sensitive to physical sensations, movement, and feelings. They communicate with the subconscious best throug...

unlike the conscious mind, the subconscious thinks literally rather than abstractly.
