Since the subconscious mind is developed through the conscious mind, choose your thoughts wisely, because the subconscious takes control of the majority of our functions throughtout the day.
When you are talking with a friend while on a walk and find your shoe is untied, you reach down to tie it, you might say, "Oops, hold on a sec," or, you might just stop to tie the shoe, while continuing to listen intently to the conversation of your friend.
You are performing the art of shoe tying mostly from your subconscious mind, only mildly aware of the actions you are performing.
When you are in a conversation, with your spouse, they say something hurtful to you, you react in a split second, from the subconscious to make a defense for all the past arguments relative to this issue.
Later you stop to think of why you reacted so quickly, only to realize that you were on automatic pilot, you failed to take every thought captive.
Now as you re-evaluate the situation, you begin to realize that your conscious thoughts would have dealt very differently, had they been in control.
The control of every thought, though unrealistic, lets us begin to realize just how important it is that we at least slow our thinking processes down enough to know when we are choosing left or right, up or down, yes or no.
In the manner of conscious living, we will find better health, less stress, and a more balanced lifestyle, as we begin to allow our environment to be a choice we make.
What we allow to control our thinking hours, will untimately control our sleeping and resting hours.
Peace is vital to ones physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing.
In order to experience peace, you must understand that the lack of it, will be determined, by the very thoughts you entertain.
Understanding the necessity to choose the proper response to stimuli, will help to lighten the load of subconscious reaction.
Because the subconscious works from and stores the input it receives from the conscious mind, trusting decisions we make on autopilot, will be much more likely to pop up in a positive manner, when we view the original input through our proper perspectives.
