Our Subconcious Mind

Our mind is very powerful. It has an impact on us much more than we realise. It can easily affect the way we feel and even our health. A good example is the placebo effect. This is when we are given any kind of medication, if we believe in it or the doctor, it will actually help us recover even if the medication or drug is just a sugar pill. This placebo effect is so noticeable, that no drug trials are done without some sort of control subjects to cater for the placebo effect. Quite often during drug trials, the placebo drugs get better results than the actual drug tested!

Anyway I am starting to tap into my subconcious mind after reading some motivational books. It basically says, you are what you think. I believe that if you become more aware and interactive with your subconcious mind, there is a lot to be gained from it. For example, now when I am struggling with a decision, I will think about it before sleeping. Then when I wake up, somehow the answer will come to me in various form of thougts. Sometimes it may be a memory related to it, or a few possible solutions... Sometimes it even comes in different way like, I will feel like doing something else and when I do it, it has an impact on the the earlier question.

Just have faith and let it come to you... There is always an answer to all our questions.
