hi guys,
this is an interesting topic i have found over the net
its about reprogramming your subconscious mind , its says as follows

To reprogram your subconscious mind with powerful affirmations, you must listen to the affirmations at least once a day for at least 30 days!

Why 30 days?

We humans are habitual, and science claim that 96-98% of all we think and do is out of habit! If you want to make changes in your life, you must develope new habits. And to create new habits, your brain has to create new neurological pathways. and to do so you must repeat a new way of acting or thinking in a certain amount of time before the pathway is created, and it feels natural to do or think in the new way.

Through teacher Jack Canfield, I heard about a very interesting research done by neuro- scientists that work in NASA. The research showed that if you want to do a belief change or some kind of paradigm shift you have to do the process like visualization or repeting affirmations every single day for 30 days without one day missed!

It takes 30 days to reprogram your subconscious mind!
In the research they made astronauts wear some glasses with special lenses that made the world appear upside down. What they found was that 25 – 30 days into the experiment every single astronaut, even if they had these lenses on 24 hours a day, in their brains created new neural pathways so that they were now able to see the world right side up! Even if the image still came in through the eye upside down!

In a subsequent experiment they had half of the astronauts take off the glasses on day 15, keep them off for 24 hours, and put them on on day 16. It took another 25-30 days before their brains created those new neurological pathways!

This means you can’t skip a day!!

The same with changing a belief system or habit of action.

So be persistant when listening to your powerful affirmations!

Thank you!

How do you "listen" to your affirmations? I have found a minimum of 30 days....45 is more accurate. Probably for all the times we had to "start over".

Thanks for the link to Merlin's research!

I have recorded my NAP and will start tonight for 10 days. I will report back with any progress with my intention.

Interesting post - thanks for sharing. I've been meaning to try this kind of repeated, non-stop approach for some time now... thanks for reminding me

very interesting, im willing to bet that affirmations combined with visualization and imagination would make results happen even faster and more powerfully.

hmm... did anyone here tried this?
Would love to hear results!

Very interesting topic. Looks like it is possible to reprogram the subsoncious mind but it is very tough. There are always some negative thinking block when we try to develop new habits.

I'm taking a NLP/hypnotherapy course at the moment. It's all about reprogramming the subconscous mind.
At the end of each class, we do a trance or deep meditation. After the third one now, my actions are changing, my outlook is more positive and I have more energy. It's very worthwhile looking into.

I tried a NAP last night and ended up having the worst nightmare of my life.

Has anyone else tried it and experienced the same?

Will try a different one rather tonight and see if i get the same results.

On the other hand, i feel fine and oddly, calmer.

Mounds · 01-14-2010, 10:58 AM

After I went into my first trance, I had four or five consecutive nightmares, all about the negative things in life that have been bothering me.
In the trance, we were to find the spot that holds all our knowledge. For me, it was a dusty, old, disorganized library. The instructor asked his to make it as we wanted to see it. I changed it to an organized modern city library. Then we were to find the spot that had our knowledge of communication. For me, it was a glass room with a single door. We were to make it as open as possible. I ended up visualizing it in the middle of the library, no walls or doors around it.
The nightmares only came one night. After that, it's been good dreams

In mine, my entire 'family' got slaughtered by a demonic cat. Plus the name John D kept getting repeated over and over. Even recieving texts with just that name in the message. I don't know anyone named John D. Then a girl came to me and said 'he will tie you up eventually.' When i asked what she meant, she just said John D and left.

Wasn't even my real family. Or my house. And i definately don't own a devil spawn cat that eats people.

hmmm....
