\u201cUntil you make the unconscious conscious, <\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n it will direct your life and you will call it fate\u201d<\/em> Carl Yung.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n How can I make the unconscious conscious?<\/p>\n They call it UN-conscious for a reason, I hear you say.<\/p>\n Yes, I agree, it\u2019s not the easiest thing to do, but it is possible.<\/p>\n And, it\u2019s not only possible, but it\u2019s absolutely necessary!<\/p>\n Until you know what is roaming in your subconscious mind, you\u2019ll never know who YOU truly are, what YOU really want.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n I\u2019ve already talked about the subconscious and the conscious mind in many of my articles* as well as in my book**, because it is the core:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n of understanding how your mind works,<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n of how you exist,<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n of how you are responsible for your own thinking and acting, and hence, feeling.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n Everything that is present in your subconscious mind<\/span><\/strong>, has been installed there by what you\u2019ve learned, by what you\u2019ve heard, by what you\u2019ve seen, \u2026<\/p>\n Most of the times, you hardly realize what is in it and how it got there. BUT. It steers 95% of alle your actions, of all your thoughts!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n You think the thoughts you\u2019ve always thought. You act the way you\u2019ve been taught, the way that you\u2019ve seen the people around you act. You believe it\u2019s meant to be that way, that it\u2019s in your genes, that you can\u2019t change it. But that\u2019s where you\u2019re wrong. You can change it by making the subconscious, conscious.<\/span><\/p>\n So it is of immense importance that you start looking into these archives and sort them out.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n You get rid of what is of no use to you (anymore), of what is not how you want to think and act anymore.<\/p>\n You keep what is still useful, what is what you really stand for.<\/p>\n To be able to look into your subconscious mind, your archives, you have to become very, very quiet.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n You have to consciously decide that you want to clear out \u2018your attic\u2019<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\n It\u2019s the same principle as decluttering your house*.<\/p>\n Things gather in your rooms as thoughts and beliefs gather in your mind, and some things have a way of sneaking into your house\/mind without you even noticing it. But then, you suddenly feel tired, feel overwhelmed, feel unhappy, and that\u2019s your cue to start decluttering.<\/p>\n Declutter your mind, make space, lighten your mind.<\/span><\/p>\n To be able to do that, you have to practice.<\/p>\n Practice silence.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Practice listening<\/strong> to the silence.<\/span><\/p>\n Practice hearing<\/strong> what is in your heart.<\/span><\/p>\n Once you hear what your heart is saying, you can start looking at what is in your subconscious mind.<\/span><\/p>\n You\u2019ll know what is in there by looking at how you think, at how you act.<\/p>\n You\u2019ll notice behavior and thoughts that do not feel like you. They make you unhappy.<\/p>\n You can safely dispose of all thoughts that do not resonate with what you hear from your heart,<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n The more you can hear what is the real you, the better you can change your thoughts and your acts.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t be too hard on yourself, the thoughts and beliefs in your \u2018archives\u2019 have been there for a very long time, so it\u2019ll take a while before they are no longer dominating your thoughts.<\/p>\n But because of the fact that you are now conscious of your unconscious, you\u2019ll recognize<\/span> which of the 2 is \u2018talking\u2019. You can thank the old beliefs, whenever they pop up, for having been there, but firmly state that you do not want to act upon them anymore. You consciously steer your thoughts in the direction your heart is showing you<\/span><\/strong>. The longer you allow these new thoughts and beliefs to direct you, the quicker you\u2019ll recognize the difference between old and new beliefs, and the easier you can change course.<\/p>\n It’s like walking a well-worn trail and now you have to create your own path. In the beginning you will always trail back to the known, obvious, path and you will have to consciously step off that trail and form a new one.<\/p>\n The longer you walk your own path, the easier it will be to stay on it.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n But the old path will always remain there. You will always have to keep being vigilant that you are still on your own, new path.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a work in progress, and a work that never ends.<\/p>\n It\u2019ll get easier and it will become your new MO, but the old pattern will always try to pop up again.<\/p>\n Make it your life mission to get to know the real you, to make the unconscious, conscious.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Therefor build in as much silence as you can.<\/p>\n Sit with your hands on your heart for a couple of minutes every day.<\/p>\n Be patient with yourself. If you have lived a \u2018loud\u2019 life until now, with lots of distractions, lots of input, it will take a while before you can hear the silence, before you can hear your own heart speaking.<\/p>\n But keep it up.<\/p>\n Become silent.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Listen, and hear, who you really are, and what you really want.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Thank you all for reading me, and for supporting me on Medium.
