Subconscious Mind

[Money Mindset Challenge] Day 12 – Money Affirmation Video

It took 15 months for me to make my one year goal of no overdrafts. Why? Because 3 months into my goal of I goofed and did one overdraft. Considering my past track record, that alone was a huge improvement.

I kept working through the Financial Alchemy process. I kept repeating the five affirmations Morgana includes in her ebook and workbook.

I found them critic neutral and read them often. I kept learning from my mistakes and continued developing my new relationship with money. Twelve months later… A Celebration!!!

It felt so good to walk into the store and buy my reward, a bottle of Dom Pérignon. It was even more fun toasting to my Money Honey, this financial victory and sipping the champagne with hubby. Last time I drank Dom Pérignon was at our wedding 27 years ago.

Affirmations You Can Believe

It’s important to keep affirming what you want to believe about your relationship with money. Your subconscious need to believe the affirmations or you run into conflict between your conscious and subconscious. This is why many times affirmations don’t work.

Joseph Murphy wrote in his book, The Power of The Subconscious Mind, the following: "Psychologists and psychiatrists point out that when thoughts are conveyed to your subconscious mind, impressions are made in the brain cells. As soon as your subconscious accepts any idea, it proceeds to put it into effect immediately. It works by association of ideas and uses every bit of knowledge that you have gathered in your lifetime to bring about its purpose."

Your subconscious defends your current belief system so your affirmations need to be believable for your conscious mind to filter the new ideas to the subconscious. Once your subconscious accepts them, it will put your new money belief system into effect immediately.

In addition to repeating Morgana’s Financial Alchemy affirmations, I created my own. I used a technique taught to me by my psychologist while healing from recovered abuse memories.

Using the words "I am" in front of an affirmation can cause an inner conflict between your conscious and subconscious mind. Example: You say I am wealthy now and your belief system comes back to say no you’re not.

Instead substitute the word "I choose" with "I am" and it neutralizes the internal conflict. Choose is the path to Self Empowerment… Choose empowers you. You say "I choose wealth now."

Your subconscious responds to feeling and emotion more than anything else. Repetition of an affirmation without emotion is not as effective.

Psychological studies show subconscious impressions can happen up to eighty-five percent faster through the use of music or voice recordings or a both together.

The video below combines a few of Morgana’s affirmations with the ones I created for myself with music. Download link for video and the Affirmation Powersheet is located in your email alert.

Make up your own affirmations relating to money… don’t forget to add emotion and music when saying them aloud. Read this article on Creating Effective Affirmations

Excellent Affirmation Software

Repetition key to re-pattern your thoughts. The Think Right Now software briefly flashes, on your computer screen, 1,000′s of visible statements of affirmation. It does this in the background while you work in any Windows based program, even while you’re on the Internet.

I like the option to add my own affirmations. Give it a try.

[Money Mindset Challenge] Day 8 – Making Room for Money

By Ann Rusnak 3 Comments

Congratulations! You’re a third of the way through the money mindset challenge. Give yourself a big hand but don’t stop now.

Your money monster (old money beliefs) will "sneakily" come back into your life if you’re not aware of his stealthy tactics.

Over the next seven days, we’ll be tending and nurturing the "garden" of your subconscious mind. This will give the new money belief "seeds" you planted a good strong root system.

Let’s start Day 8 with the first of our deterrent strategies to keep your money monster at bay.

Make Room For Money

First strategy is making room for money. This is one of several on the "Create A New Relationship With Money" audio.

Morgana said clear out the stuff getting in the way. Clear out the mental and physical clutter that block you from receiving.

If you go back to Day’s 3 & 4, I talked about cleaning out "physical" barriers blocking money from coming in. I walked you through the steps I took in getting rid of that clutter and getting my finances organized.

This was one of the first things I needed to do to find out where we stood financially.

Where Are Your Money Blocks

Grab a piece of paper and answer the questions below:

What clutter is keeping money out of your life? Look around your office…your home… your closets

Do you have unfinished projects?

What things do you hold onto that could use replacing?

I held onto clothes that really needed replacing. I started looking like an orphan.

I kept justifying this behavior with some false beliefs.

I said things like "I can’t get rid of these, everything is in polyester. If I through them out, I won’t have anything to wear." (I’m allergic to polyester) We can’t afford new clothes and my favorite… When I loose weight. Every excuse I could think of. Finally I said enough is enough. Is this how I show self love? I wasn’t caring for myself.

This behavior showed money I didn’t trust him to show up to buy new clothes. Not a good way to start a relationship.

So I decided to throw out everything stained and falling apart. Which was pretty much everything.

Suddenly catalogs arrived with clothes made of cotton, wool and silk. More importantly Money showed up too. I could replace everything I threw out with new clothing.

Trust is one of the four key ingredients for a healthy relationship… I’ll talk more on this tomorrow.

Don’t try to declutter everything at once. Trust your money honey to guide you on where to start. Ask him what do you need to do make room for money.

[Money Mindset Challenge] Day 7 – Power of Your Subconscious Mind

By Ann Rusnak 7 Comments

Before we move forward with Day 7, let’s do a quick recap of the 21 day money Mind Challenge so far…

We talked about negative money beliefs and how to begin changing them. How to change your relationship with money. You discovered the power of habits. We went over letting go and learning to trust your new relationship with money.

Yesterday we tapped into the universal law of sowing and reaping and how to use this law to stay encouraged during this challenge,

Let’s get going on today’s fascinating discussion on the Power of Your Subconscious Mind.

There’s a reason why Morgana’s Financial Alchemy associates a persona with your Money Monster and your Money Honey. It has to do with the how your subconscious works.

Do you remember the quote for Day 4?

Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny. ~ Unknown

Your subconscious is very sensitive to your thoughts.

That’s why watching your thoughts is critical to changing your money mindset.

Your mind works at two levels… the conscious level and a subconscious level.

Meet Your Conscious Half

Let me explain how the conscious and subconscious mind works. This knowledge of the interaction between your conscious and subconscious will enable you, to not only change your money mindset, but to transform your whole life.

You think with your conscious and it’s the rational half of your mind. You make all your decisions with your conscious mind. It’s the part of your mind that makes your choices.

The conscious mind gathers knowledge and experience through the senses. It learns from books, conversation and experience. It reasons and forms conclusions. Thoughts generate at the conscious level and finally passes its thoughts down into the subconscious mind… What you habitually think about all day long sinks down into your subconscious.

Meet Your Subconscious Half…

Your subconscious level is the cradle of your emotions and creative center in your mind. It’s also where your habits take up residence.

Think of the subconscious mind as the storage room of everything that is currently not in your conscious mind; it stores all your previous life experiences, your belief system, your memories, you skills, all situations you’ve been through, and all images you’ve ever seen.

Your subconscious mind runs on auto pilot and will process whatever information enters it. It’s always working. It is active night and day, whether you act upon it or not. Through ceaseless, tireless action of your subconscious mind controls all the vital functions of your body without the help of your conscious mind.

Can you imagine if you had to think about breathing, make your heart pump… thank goodness for the subconscious mind.

Your subconscious mind is far more powerful than your conscious one. When you learn how to train and use your subconscious mind, you can control your behavior, break bad habits, get rid of unwanted emotions and fix your belief system.

How the Conscious Affects Your Subconscious

Your subconscious is subjective to your conscious mind. It takes orders your give it based on what your conscious mind believes and accepts at true.

Your subconscious mind will begin to execute an idea once it accepts the idea impressed upon it. It will not make comparisons nor does it reason or thinks things out for itself. That job belongs to the conscious mind.

It will accept what ever the conscious mind believes whether it’s true or false.

The subconscious mind learns by repetition and not by logic. It learns by the conscious mind establishing deep grooves from habitual thinking… thinking the same thoughts over and over.

The longer the subconscious mind believes something, the harder it will be to alter this belief in any way: If you have a longstanding belief, it will definitely be more difficult to alter than a recently formed one.

Money Persona’s Soothes the Conflicts Between Your Conscious and Subconscious Minds

While you may want to change the way you think… your conscious mind will often reject your new thoughts because they are in conflict with your current belief system.

The more ingrained the belief… the harder it will be to alter it.

That is until you associate genuine feelings and emotions to your new beliefs. Your subconscious picks up that your conscious mind really doesn’t believe what it’s thinking. The subconscious accepts what your really feel is true. Until then, the dominate idea or belief will be accepted by the subconscious.

Creating relationships your money brings emotions and feelings to those beliefs. Your money monster represents those old money beliefs. Your money honey emboldens your new money beliefs.

The subconscious mind does not differentiate between visualizations and real situations. These two personas don’t produce a mental conflict.

If you said "I love money" without attaching it to your relationship with your money honey, a conflict can arise from within.

I invested years in telling myself everything my parents said about money was wrong. Their negative suggestions were so embedded and deeply grooved. It took years of lots and lots of repetition just to make minor inroads on my money belief system.

It was the visualization of the relationship of the two money personas that allowed the inner conflict to subside. My subconscious more readily accepted the new thoughts because it really felt they were true.

That’s when I experience many positive money changes in our life. It’s almost like the bamboo story from yesterday.

Go back and listen to the " Create New Relationship With Money" audio in the Financial Alchemy Program. Notice how many times Morgana talks about feelings toward your new money.

Creating a relationship with a "Money Honey" sounded hokey and dopey but relationships involve emotion and feeling… the fastest way to make a new impression stick on your subconscious.

Belief: He Ignored Doctors Nay Saying and Made History

By Ann Rusnak 2 Comments

Doctors and scientist believed the human body could not run a mile under four minutes. They said anybody attempting such a foolish act would cause their hearts to explode.

How did Roger Bannister come to believe he could to the impossible? With the help of his coach Franz Stampfl.

Franz broke down the mile into four one quarter mile segments. He review Roger’s running stats for the past month and made a discovery. One time or another, Roger ran one quarter of a mile in less then one minute. All Roger needed to do was string them together at the right time and he could run the mile in less than 4 minutes.

Suddenly, breaking the 4 minute barrier become believable.

Part of Roger’s training included visualizing himself breaking the record. Every night before he went to sleep, he visualized running a mile in under 4 minutes. After several months of training… on May 6, 1954 Roger Did It!!!! He blazed across the finished line in 3 minutes and 59.4 seconds.

Belief + Visualizing + Action = Success

The Power of Believing

Landy broke Roger’s record just 6 weeks later… 3 years later 200 runners ran the mile in less than 4 minutes. Today, at least 964 athletes can boost breaking the four minute barrier.

The only change between the other runners who couldn’t do it before Roger but could after… they suddenly didn’t get better…they simply began to believe they could do it too.

It doesn’t take much to make the impossible …possible. Gunder Haegg in 1945 set a new world record running the mine in 4:01.4. Nine years later Roger set a new record breaking time at 3:59.4. Roger broke Haegg’s record by seconds.

Does Your Thinking Slow You Down?

Psychological barriers block success far more common than physical barriers. Many of us never reach our full potential or live the life we dream about because of the psychological limits we place on ourselves.

Believe the specialness in you.. Boldly embrace your dreams and visions. Out of dreams and visions come belief, and out of belief comes commitment. Once you change your belief system, your goals and aspirations come much quicker.

Always remember, "If you believe it, YOU can achieve it."

You too can change your belief system. All you need to do is discover your true inner M.E. The Magical Essence that makes you unique. Your inner M.E. is meant to shine, meant to sparkle and achieve great things. I invite you to begin the journey of discovering and unlocking your dreams with our FREE "Single Thought… A Single Step…" Success Kit.

To Your Success,

Triggering Your Brain to Bring Your Dreams and Visions to You – Scientifically

By Ann Rusnak Leave a Comment

Your hopes, dreams and aspirations are legitimate.
They are trying to take you airborne, above the clouds, above the storms- if you only let them. ~Dan Zandra

A clear vision of what you want will keep you focused on your desired outcome. Writing that vision triggers your brain’s reticular activating system making you more aware of want.

At the core of your brainstem, you’ll find a collection of neurons called the reticular formation. These neurons receive input from most of your body’s sensory systems (eg sight, smell, taste, etc) and other parts of the brain, such as the cerebellum and cerebral hemispheres.

Some neurons from the reticular formation project to meet motor neurons of your spinal cord and influence functions such as cardiovascular and respiratory control.

Now the fun part… Another group of neurons projects into most of your brain forming a network of nerve cells in the brainstem called the reticular activating system.

The Power Of The Reticular Activating System (RAS)

The reticular activating system (RAS) plays an important role in Arousing and Consciousness. It influences wakefulness ( Sleep/Wake Cycle) overall degree of arousal and maintaining and regulating consciousness.

Visual and acoustical stimuli and mental activities stimulate the Reticular Activating System to maintain attention and alertness.

Writing your vision crystallizes your thinking and stimulates RAS making you more aware and conscious of them.

The more detail you put to your dreams the quicker you attract what needs to make them a reality. Visualizing, smelling, tasting, hearing and feeling your aspirations stimulates RAS to heighten awareness and consciousness.

You become more conscious of resources, people, information and opportunities to bring your dreams into reality. Your success will begin to snowball.

Invest time this week and write out your dreams and see what happens.

Much Success,
