Using Your Subconscious Mind to Generate Feel-Good Ideas

EP026 with Alison O'Leary

Tap into the genius of your subconscious mind

In this episode I’m delving into the power of the subconscious mind, and how and why it can help you pinpoint the career or lifestyle changes that you truly want. Oh yes!

The subconscious mind can play a big role in helping any of us identify what will really make us happy, but it’s often ignored or dismissed, or just not recognised as important.

In this episode we discuss

  • The difference between your conscious and subconscious mind, explaining some left-brain/right-brain science
  • Why it’s a trap to only use your left brain, treating problem-solving and new idea creation as a purely logic-based endeavour
  • Why your subconscious is way better at helping you come up with right-fit, feel-good career and lifestyle ideas
  • Three exercises that will help you access and use your own subconscious to tap into answers on what you really need and want, which I personally use and that consistently work for me!

With the exercises, I give you an insight into:

  • Asking your subconscious to solve a problem for you (or come up with a solution to something) while you sleep
  • Using positive affirmations (infused with belief and emotion)
  • Two ways of using visualisation

This is the childhood visualisation exercise I mention in the podcast. It’s one small part of my Work Wonderland™ Course.

This is the visualisation exercise from Steve Pavlina, called ‘Go to your room’, which does a similar thing and helps you receive messages direct from your subconscious.
