Let's talk about subliminals (Patreon)

Although you may feel confident that you know the recipe by heart, being reminded of its ingredients and perhaps discovering new information can be tremendously beneficial. This is especially true when it comes to subliminals, so, what are subliminals? They are a powerful tool for personal development and self-improvement. Therefore, it is essential to understand what subliminals are and how they work, even if you consider yourself familiar with the concept. In essence, subliminals are audio recordings that contain positive affirmations that target the subconscious mind, with the aim of reprogramming it to align with your desired outcomes. These affirmations are often masked by other sounds or music, making them subliminal, or below the threshold of conscious awareness. In easier terms, subliminals basically skip one step, your conscious mind. Subliminals have a unique ability to directly impact the subconscious mind. Unlike natural manifestation, where the conscious mind filters and interprets the focus of attention before transmitting it to the subconscious (RAS), subliminals bypass this filter and go straight to the subconscious. By doing so, they can effectively reprogram the subconscious mind and align it with your desires. When manifesting naturally, the reticular activating system filters your focus, allowing only what it deems relevant to reach your subconscious mind, which is why both repetition and consistency are important factors, also (Turning affirmation that you have what you want into a dominant thought -> Increase focus). This triggers your subconscious to seek out external stimuli that confirm your focus, leading you to experience and see what you had initially focused on. However, with subliminals, the affirmations are designed to bypass the reticular activating system and directly target the subconscious mind. This can result in a faster and more effective manifestation of your desires if there is no conscious resistance. One of the remarkable things about subliminals is that they can produce results even for things that may not matter to you much. This is because when you deeply care about something, you tend to think about it a lot which is totally fine, you don’t need to detach and try to fool yourself as if you’re not literally you. That’d be silly., But thinking and thinking nonstop about something often leads to fear and doubt creeping in. These negative thoughts  can create resistance, making failure an option in a reality you have full control over, and making it challenging for you to manifest what you desire. It's important to note that this resistance is not simply your mind being stubborn, but rather a natural reaction to something that feels foreign and unfamiliar. For instance, if someone were to say that they intend to manifest a strong friendship with Oprah without any context, it might sound outlandish and straight up crazy. However, when you dive deeper and understand how manifestation works, it becomes clear that anything is possible.

It's crucial that you have a clear understanding of what you're getting into when it comes to manifestation. Therefore, I highly recommend that you take the time to educate yourself on the subject. As someone who values logical thinking, I know that it can be difficult to simply accept something that doesn't make sense, that’s why I keep shoving facts down your throat. Manifestation allows you to align your thoughts and beliefs with your desired outcomes to create a more positive and fulfilling life. It's grounded in the principles of neuroscience and psychology and is based on the idea that your thoughts and beliefs influence your reality. Therefore, by gaining a deeper understanding of how manifestation works, you can unlock its full potential and create the life you truly desire. It's important to understand that manifestation is not a religion or a practice, but rather a natural process that occurs within the mind. Our thoughts and beliefs shape our reality, and through manifestation, we can intentionally direct these thoughts and beliefs towards our desired outcomes. Manifestation is about taking control of our own perspectives and altering them to better align with the life we want to create. We are all living through our own unique point of view, and through manifestation, we can transform that point of view and create a more fulfilling life. By understanding the inner workings of the mind and harnessing the power of our thoughts, we can shape our reality and manifest the life we truly desire. The practice of positive thinking is encouraged in many of the world's major religions. For instance, the first that came to mind as I was writing this was Islam. Islam places great emphasis on the power of positive thinking, optimism and its ability to shape our reality. In fact, Islamic teachings align with the actual scientific principles behind manifestation, making it a fascinating area of study. Manifestation is a topic that you'll come across in a variety of contexts, including psychology, spirituality, and personal development. This is because manifestation is a process that occurs within the mind and has a tangible impact on our lives. It's more than just wishful thinking; the impact of manifestation is evident in our everyday experiences.  So, it's no surprise that manifestation is a topic that is so widely discussed and studied across different disciplines.

That being said, I will go on assuming that you know exactly what I mean when I say that subliminals work regardless of whatever excuse you want to throw at me; “I have been listening to subs for years, no results.” Right, no results; it is just as you tell it. It's important to acknowledge that some people may dismiss the power of subliminals, citing their own lack of results despite years of listening. However, it's essential to recognize that manifestation is always at work, and the results we see are a direct reflection of our thoughts and beliefs. If we focus on not getting results, we'll likely continue to experience the same outcome. Manifestation is always working, and it's up to us to direct it in a positive direction. It's essential to remain mindful of our thoughts and refrain from getting caught up in negative patterns of thinking. Instead, we must focus on the positive and remain vigilant in our commitment to our desired outcome. Negative thoughts and beliefs can be challenging to overcome, but we can learn to observe them and move past them, treating them like intrusive thoughts. By doing so, we can open ourselves up to the positive possibilities that subliminals and manifestation can offer us. So, it's important to keep an open mind and stay focused on the positive to achieve the best results possible. Basically, subliminals will work just fine if you just allow them to. Let’s say you’re using a “blue eyes” subliminal, but you keep thinking about how dark your eyes are, how subliminals don’t work, how you’ve been listening for so long but you’re not seeing results -> You’re affirming, literally, but you’re affirming the opposite of what the subliminal is telling your subconscious. Having blue eyes is not part of your dominant thoughts, the opposite is, though, so you’re just erasing the process as you listen to subliminals; the affirmations now hold no weight, no focus and no backbone, while your negative thoughts do. It may seem silly to let negative thoughts sabotage your efforts, but it's a common, natural and instinctive mistake that can hinder your progress.

When using subliminals to achieve a desired outcome, it's important to be consistent, obviously. Remember that you're using subliminals because you want to change something in your life. However, your current thoughts may not align with your ideal outcome because it's something that you see as an ideal, not a normal occurrence in your life. You want to make your desires your new normal. Therefore, consistent listening to subliminals can help you reprogram your subconscious mind and align your thoughts with your desired outcome, you flip the table, change the script and rewrite your dominant thoughts about something in particular, whatever it is, you are changing the original thoughts surrounding it. Through consistent practice, you can create new thought patterns that support your goals and the rest will unfold however you want, literally; there are no chances of failure.It's easy to get caught up in the number of subliminals in your playlist, but it's not necessary. The number of subliminals is quite irrelevant, and having multiple subliminals on the same topic only adds more repetition to your playlist, which can be helpful in reinforcing the affirmations. At the end of the day, subliminals are just affirmations, and there are only a limited number of ways to write affirmations. Subliminal makers usually aim to create affirmations that are likely to resonate with the majority of people, so you don't have to worry too much about the number of subliminals in your playlist. Instead, focus on the quality and effectiveness of the affirmations and go with whatever resonates with you personally. Don't get too caught up in the number game.

I highly recommend creating your own subliminals. Contrary to popular belief, knowing the affirmations in your subliminals does not make them less effective. In the past, I used to believe this misconception, which is why my old subliminals had vague descriptions of the benefits. To put it simply, it just doesn't make sense to worry about knowing the affirmations in your subliminal. If you know what you're getting out of it, you're not going to sabotage yourself consciously. So don't stress about it, just go ahead and make your own subliminal if you feel like it! It's super easy to make your own subliminal! All you need is a text-to-speech website, or you could just record your own voice  and use a basic editing app. Simply type out the thoughts you would have if you already had what you desire, then use that as the audio. You can use any kind of masking sound you like, and voila - you've got a customized subliminal! It's a fun and effective way to manifest your desires.
