During my life time there has be a continuous rise in Depression, Anxiety, Mental Illness, Fear, Worry, Violence, Blame, Anger, and Disrespect. The chaos we are seeing in our lives, our Country, and the World is because our agreement with the Collective consciousness. We individually and collectively have unresolved emotions that can also be referred to as trapped emotions that are formed by beliefs in our subconscious mind.
The subconscious mind is the part of the mind of that we are not fully aware but that influences our actions and feelings and creates our belief system. The subconscious mind helps us remember how to do what we have already learned and creates programs based on what worked or didn’t for us in the past. The subconscious mind creates programs to keep us physically and emotionally “safe”. Consider that many of the beliefs and programs in our subconscious mind where formed before adolescence. Then the subconscious mind follows the programs to prove that your belief are true.
We are generally unaware of these programs, therefore we have the tendency to run on autopilot. As we run on autopilot, rather than reacting to a new experience as a new event our subconscious mind finds a similar event and reacts in like manner. If it work to react in timid, avoid confrontation each time we experience a similar event we would continue that programming of being timid. If it worked to react in anger to avoid accountability each time we experience a similar event we would continue that programming of being angry. As we run on autopilot we don’t recognize how our actions affect those around us.
M.Farouk Radwan, MSc. states, “The subconscious mind is a like a big memory bank that stores your beliefs, memories and life experiences. This information that is stored in your subconscious mind always affects your behavior and actions in different situations.
One of the very interesting facts about the way the subconscious mind works is that it won’t only affect your behavior but it will also affect your perception of events.”
Collective consciousness is the set of shared beliefs, ideas, and moral attitudes which operate as a unifying force within society. In general, it does not refer to the specifically moral conscience, but to a shared understanding of social norms. Just like the subconscious mind we are also unaware the programs running in the Collective consciousness.
The EOS Institute states, “The “collective consciousness” permeates all beings, affecting our attitudes, feelings and behaviors. We are all a part of the whole, just like cells within the body. They function separately, but also work together as the basis of life itself.
Just as the collective consciousness can impact you; you too can influence the collective consciousness for the better.
You are a powerful spiritual being, with far-reaching influence. The vibrations you put out at any given moment, affect the collective consciousness of all beings, in much the same way a tiny pebble causes large ripples upon the water.
As you transmit the higher vibrational energies of gratitude, love, and peace to the universe, those energies permeate the collective whole, transforming and healing the world on a cosmic level.
Not only that, but the energy you send out into the universe is also returned to you.”
The video below is one of the best explanation of how Collective Consciousness affects our World.
We have to change ourselves to change the Collective consciousness
It is no coincidence that there is a rise in self help programs, seminars, and support groups. The Collective consciousness is pulling for change. We each have our own set of beliefs, programs, emotions, and behaviors that are contributing to the Collective consciousness therefore we need to start with self. Keep in mind, the subconscious mind can only accept new beliefs that don’t contradict existing beliefs. To reprogram the subconscious mind you have to modifying certain beliefs by taking action.
Tony Robins states, “Your mind is the key to success and you have the power to learn how to reprogram your subconscious. If you want to live the life you desire, then it’s time to decide, to commit and to resolve. It’s not what we can do in life that makes a difference – it’s what we will do. And there’s no better time to take back control of your mind and set your sights on something better than right now.”
Watch how Tony explains how to reprogram your mind to two friends, using basketball as an example.
Quantum physicists have been telling us now for several years that our bodies are really made of nothing but pure energy. Our thoughts and emotions also forms of pure energy.
“The idea of energy healing and the effects of emotional energy on body isn’t new. There is actually research to support our assertion that emotions are energy! The late David Hawkins, M.D., Ph.D and author of the book Power vs. Force, discovered that the energy in someone’s magnetic field (their “log level”) can be profoundly affected by their emotions. He discovered that the body’s energy level actually increases as an individual feels more positive emotions.” Discovery Health, Is There Science Behind Emotional Energy Healing?
Therefore I believe as we reprogram our subconscious mind and heal our energy we can change ourselves and as well as contributing to the change in the Collective consciousness.
