[Book Summary] The Power of Your Subconscious Mind - Joseph Murphy

How the mind works

In the book "The Power of Your Subconscious Mind", the author Joseph Murphy tells us that the mind is divided into two areas, with different functions: the conscious mind and the subconscious mind.

The conscious mind is the objective part, responsible for making choices, planning, and storing short-term memories.

But most of your mind is formed by the subconscious, about 90%, where you find long-term memories, habits, behaviors and our beliefs.

According to the author, the part of the subconscious is the one with the most power that we cannot use:

"You have only one mind, but your mind has two distinct characteristics."

To make clear the distinction of our mind, Joseph makes an analogy of the garden and the gardener. The conscious is the gardener and the subconscious is the garden. So it is you who chooses what to sow, what to grow and sow, after all, you reap what you sow. If you plant negative seeds, you will probably reap rotten fruits.

The power of the subconscious

In this chapter, Joseph Murphy explains that the subconscious mind is open to the power of suggestion, so if you mentalize good things, they will come true in your life. If you think about bad things, they happen too. That is, here the law of action and reaction is used.

Also, your subconscious doesn't argue with you, you just program it. Therefore, it is essential to have constructive and positive suggestions, feeding on thoughts of harmony, health, peace and a happy solution to the problem. All of this will be accepted by the subconscious, turning it into reality.

Your subconscious mind takes care of your entire body and knows how to solve problems, so, try to eliminate all those negative thoughts and energies such as anxiety, pessimism, fear and worry.

Mental Healing Techniques

At this point of the book "The Power of Your Subconscious Mind", Murphy says that the subconscious doesn't know differ true and false. By this way, he suggest to do affirmations of everything that is positive, and use this technique to develop a subconscious based on results.

Said that, the author gives 4 tools that you must use in order to reverse this scenario.

Stay away from all negativity

Have you ever wondered how many bad things you put in your mind daily?

There are numerous news programs on TV and social networks that foster fear, anger, worry, and many other negativities. Is it possible to have an abundant and positive life in face of all this?

The answer is no! Ponder this and eliminate these negative patterns from your life. Also, do the same for toxic people around you, as they may be preventing you from living positive energies and achieving good results.

Reverse the negative thoughts

Whenever a negative thought comes up, such as "I can't", "I'm not fine" and "I'm not smart", reverse it at once.

Replace these affirmations with something positive that does not poison you.

Affirmations

Since the subconscious mind cannot differentiate between what is true and what is false, we can positively abuse it.

The best time for you to practice affirmations is before bed and when you wake up. Put good energy and self-confidence, stating as if you have already earned your wish.

Views

Another technique is to visualize the life you wish to have. Doesn't matter your goal, visualize the situation in which it is already achieved. So, think about how you would do it and what results you want with that goal completed.

The power to be rich is in the mind

True wealth begins with the reproduction of the idea of wealth in the subconscious. Therefore, promote ideas of success, abundance, wealth and ensure that they are not denied at all.

The author Joseph Murphy suggests that you imagine the desired outcome and rely heavily on your subconscious to make it happen. So the subconscious will work in search the idea that will bring you wealth.

Paulo Vieira, in his book "Enrichment Factor", defines the 5 main conducts for wealth, among them are the desire to become rich and to feel rich. They are totally related to your subconscious.

In the enrichment process, it is crucial that you eliminate all envy and jealousy, as this will strengthen your inner self. Also, when you wish more wealth for others, your subconscious will understand that you deserve the same.

Lastly, never forget that money is just a symbol and we should not live by it. Remember to consider all feelings of happiness, love, joy, kindness, peace, doing what you like. This is a successful life!

The wonder of sleep for the subconscious

During sleep, the subconscious works without interruption in the recovery process and searching for answers.

The book "The Power of Your Subconscious Mind" states that sleep is fundamental for inner peace, body health and spiritual recharge. Lack of it makes us angry, depressed and causes mental disorders. Given this, the author shown that we need 8 hours of sleep.

The sleepy state reduces the mind to minimum, leading to the absence of positive thoughts. Therefore, use words of confidence and positivity to increase emotional value.

To have a peaceful sleep you need to calm down and relax. One tip is to think in questions for which answers lead you to your goals.

The moment you wake up, don't have negative thoughts and worries. Wake up with all the positivity you lay with.

Rewarding Relationships

Always have good thoughts about the people you live with. Don't keep hurt feelings, grudges, and bad feelings, because what you feed is what you get.

The author Joseph Murphy tells you to mature emotionally and allow your opinion to disagree. After all, they have this right, just as it is possible to you disagree with them, but without being unpleasant.

According to the book, it can be said that the fundamental principle of human relations is to wish others what they desire themselves.

Of all the content presented, the main advice and tips for rewarding relationships and a strengthened subconscious are:

  • Do not judge;
  • Forgive the immature and yourself;
  • Do not think badly of others;
  • Think and feel about others as you would like them to be for you;
  • Do not react with bad feelings towards others;
  • Happiness is a habit one must think about often;
  • What you think about the other is bringing to yourself;
  • Thoughts of hatred and resentment are mental poisons;
  • The kindness, love, and good you do to others will be multiplied for you;
  • Fear is a negative thought;
  • Do what you are afraid of doing and the end of fear is certain.

Books about self knowledge

In "Atomic Habits", James Clear explains how small changes can result in big results. According to him, habits are the compound interest in personal improvement. Improving 1% each day generates a giant change at the end of the journey.

In the book "Awaken the Giant Within", the author Tony Robbins suggests that if you want to break a particular habit, an effective method of doing so is to associate this behavior that you want to exterminate with some form of pain.

Finally, in "The Power of Habit", Charles Duhigg says that anyone who wants to change behavior needs the ability to believe things will get better.

So, how can I take advantage of my subconscious?

Analyze well what goes into your subconscious, making it work toward your goals. Remember to visualize success and eliminate all negative thoughts.

Keep applying the teachings of the book day after day, as in some cases the subconscious responds quickly, and in others, it takes some time. But be resilient, until those techniques become a habit in your life!
