Your mind is a very powerful thing, and it's your thoughts that control how you
act and how you go through life. Everything that you do and wherever you are in
your life at present is a result of your habitual ways of thinking and behaving.
Whatever you do in the next 10 years will be the result of what you do NOW!
You have the power to make an incredible difference in your life. The great
American psychologist William James said: "human beings by changing the inner
attitudes of their minds, can change the outer aspects of their lives". If you
can change your thoughts, then you can change yourself on a core level and
drastically improve the quality of life.
Your brain is comprised of a hundred trillion neurological connections. That's
more connections than there are galaxies in the universe! Einstein estimated
that we only use a small proportion of our brains, about 10%. Subliminals
contain the access codes for the other 90%.
What Are Subliminal Messages?
Infographic, What are Subliminal Messages?
Sensation Thresholds Char t"Subliminal" means below the threshold of conscious
perception. Put simply, subliminal audio refers to sounds played at a level you
are unable to hear consciously - but that your subconscious mind can perceive.
Subliminal (audio) messages are affirmations that bypass your conscious mind and
go straight into your subconscious. These hidden positive affirmations are
embedded in the music, just below your hearing level. Because your conscious
mind is not aware of the subliminal suggestions underlying the music, it can't
put up barriers against it. That's why subliminal affirmations avoid any
resistance, which would usually hold you back.
Your conscious mind will hear only music. But there is much more happening
behind the scenes! With repeated listening, your subconscious mind begins to
accept the suggestions as true. Day by day, it'll become easier for you to reach
your goals because you now have tapped into the power source - your subconscious
mind.
How Do Subliminal Messages Work?
Iceberg, Conscious Mind, Subconscious Mind To really
understand and begin to use the power of subliminal messages, you need to know
just a little about your mind. In particular, what's meant by the conscious and
the subconscious mind. You see, there are only two primary ways you make sense
of the world - consciously and subconsciously.
The human mind can be compared to an iceberg with the visible tip of the ice
being your conscious mind. And the invisible mass or larger part underwater
being your subconscious mind. In fact, over 90% of what you think, feel, and do
is controlled by your subconscious mind. A real change begins underneath the
surface.
The Surface Mind - Your Conscious Mind
Your conscious mind, as the name implies, works
when you are conscious and awake. It is the mind that you actively and
deliberately think with all day long. You probably experience it as a somewhat
continual internal voice that you think of as "me".
But while the conscious mind certainly has its uses, it's extremely limited in
what it can accomplish on its own. Studies have shown that it can only hold a
handful of ideas at any one time. That's why the majority of your life is run
automatically by your other mind - the subconscious.
The Deeper Mind - Your Subconscious Mind
The subconscious mind is your larger mind. It is
always active and can process millions of messages of sensory information every
single second. The unconscious contains all of your wisdom, memories, and
intelligence. It's the seat of your creativity, thoughts, emotions. It regulates
your body maintenance and autonomic processes like breathing, blood supply, or
tissue regeneration. The conscious mind cannot heal a cut or accelerate your
heartbeat. The subconscious mind does!
Most importantly, the subconscious mind stores and runs all your "programs" of
automatic behavior that you use to live your life. The subconscious mind is like
having an "autopilot" function in the brain, which allows you to do multiple
things simultaneously without having to concentrate on all of them at once.
These programs ("habits") are useful because they free your conscious minds up
to think about other things.
For example, learning to drive a car involves learning lots of little habits
such as indicating, accelerating, braking, turning. After you have practiced
them consciously several times, they become habitual so that now you can just
get in the car and decide where you want to go.
How To Reprogram Your Subconscious Mind For Success
Cycle Diagram, Mindset, Thoughts, Actions, Results,
Beliefs. The interaction between conscious and subconscious is going on all the
time. But why is it that some people naturally focus on what's positive, what
helps them achieve and succeed? The answer is programming.
Your mind has been programmed by your parents, teachers, relatives, peers, the
media, and by the way you talk to yourself. Everything that's ever happened to
you and everything that you ever imagined is stored as a multi-sensory recording
in your subconscious mind. You received positive, supportive programming from
those around you and some negative, limiting programs as well.
If you want to transform and upgrade your life, then you need to upgrade your
old, limiting programs. Until your subconscious mind is programmed for success,
nothing you learn, know or do will make any difference in the long run. You
can't overcome your subconscious programming with logical arguments or even hard
work.
Subliminal audios offer new, positive software for your mind. It's a very
effective way to change your negative program and upgrade your mind software.
Which will, in turn, enhance your performance in the world and your quality of
life. Just as a gardener plants the seeds and patiently waits for them to grow,
subliminal affirmations plant positive ideas in your mind.
Do Subliminal Messages Really Work?
We often get asked for evidence of subliminals,
from people who have yet to experience the power of subliminal affirmations for
themselves.
There are plenty of well-documented studies proving that subliminal tapes can
produce measurable and lasting effects, from breaking bad habits to improving
performance. In fact, subliminal affirmations can be used to improve every area
of your life - from profound internal changes to improvements in your physical
body. For example, you can increase your motivation, boost your self-esteem,
treat illnesses, and phobias. The possibilities are truly endless!
So, here are some studies conducted on subliminal messaging over the last 30 years.
For a long time, research on silent subliminal technology was prohibited because of a US military patent. Here are some studies which have been conducted on subliminal messaging over the last 30+ years.
The Subconscious Mind
Can Perceive Audio Subliminal Messages
Kaser, V.A. "The Effects of an Auditory Subliminal Perception Message Upon the
Production of Images and Dreams". Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease (1986)
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3723126
Subjects listened to an audio subliminal message. The message was mixed with a regular music recording. Another group of subjects simply listened to the regular music recording without the subliminals.
Both groups were
asked to create a pre-test drawing before and immediately after the music was
played as well as a drawing of any dreams they had the previous night.
When the drawings were examined, the effects of the subliminal message could be
seen. The drawings of the people who listened to the music with subliminal
hidden content contained images relating to the suggestions they were listening
to, whereas no correlation could be found with the control group.
Kaser concluded that "the unconscious/subconscious mind is able to perceive a
recorded verbal message that cannot be consciously heard", proving the existence
of subliminal perception.
-------------------------------------
In another study conducted by Dr. Becker experimental and control groups were asked to guess a three-digit number. The experimental group was exposed to the number subliminally embedded in behind a pink noise (similar to white noise) based audio track.
In three different trials an average of 77% of people exposed to the subliminal numbers guessed correctly, in comparison to only 10% of people in the control groups who weren't exposed subliminally to the numbers. This again confirms that subliminal messages are perceived at a non-conscious level.

Strong Reactions to Subliminal Messages
Bornstein, R.F, Leone, D.R. and Galley, D.J. "The Generalizability of Subliminal
Mere Exposure Effects: Influence of Stimuli Perceived Without Awareness on
Social Behavior." Journal of Personality and Social Psychology (1987)
https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/57c1/19f13a5d03ef23c383d7f550ab2d01d9c85e.pdf
Spoken statements hidden by white noise at increasing volume levels were played
to test subjects.
Stronger physiological reactions were observed in subjects exposed to the
messages which masked by loud white noise and inaudible, than when the volume
was actually lower and the messages were somewhat audible.
Research concluded that completely inaudible messages were capable of reaching
the human mind, and of having a physiological effect.
-------------------------------------
The Power of Subliminal Stimulus
Shevrin, H. "Does the Averaged Evoked Response Encode Subliminal Perception?
Yes." (1975) http://psycnet.apa.org/record/1975-28968-001
Research showed that peoples responses to a given stimulus were statistically
lower when subjects were consciously aware, but when the stimuli was presented
in a subliminal fashion the response rate was significantly higher.
Despite people being unaware of the stimuli, measurements suggest that our minds
do still become aware. This suggests that while the mind is not consciously
aware of any messages, the subconscious mind can pick up on the subliminal
information and respond in the same way as if it was received under regular
conditions.

Helps to Quit Smoking
Palmatier, J.R., and Bornstein, P.H. "Effects of Subliminal Stimulation of
Symbiotic Merging Fantasies on Behavioral Treatment of Smokers." The Journal of
Nervous and Mental Disease (1980) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7452209
34 people underwent a 3-week, group-oriented smoking cessation therapy package.
Results showed that the subliminal messages affected post-treatment smoking
behavior of the group. i.e. the people who received subliminal messages after
their regular therapy had a lower rate of relapse into smoking again.
A follow up study by Palmatier and Bornstein found that "subliminal messaging
noticeably improved the progress of subjects attempting to quit smoking", when
compared to the group not exposed to subliminal messages.

Losing Weight & Healthy Eating
Silverman, L.H., Martin, A., Ungaro, R., and Mendelsohn, E. "Effect of
Subliminal Stimulation of Symbiotic Fantasies on Behavior Modification Treatment
of Obesity." Clinical Psychology (1978)
https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/0e6f/90b6e5975f7ee6bb0fbb8fecd905a41d676c.pdf
Silverman conducted two experiments on subliminal perception with groups of 26
and 30 women. The women were at least 15% overweight. There were 2 groups, a
'subliminal group' and a 'control group'. Both groups were given some education
on weight loss and healthy eating i.e. how to record calories accurately, eating
at regular meal times, and how to reward themselves for eating healthily.
At the start and end of all the sessions, everyone was asked to image a
situation in which they would be tempted to over eat. At this point they were
exposed to a subliminal message for 4 milliseconds. Either a weight loss based
subliminal message for the subliminal group or a neutral subliminal message for
the control group.
In both cases the subliminal group' lost more weight than the control group,
with the subliminal group losing significantly more by the end of the follow up
period. It was concluded that the use of subliminal messaging was able to help
people reduce their over eating habits.

Improves Math Skills
Ariam, S., & Siller, J. "Effects of subliminal oneness stimuli in Hebrew on
academic performance of Israeli high school students: Further evidence on the
adaptation-enhancing effects of symbiotic fantasies in another culture using
another language." Journal of Abnormal Psychology (1982)
http://psycnet.apa.org/record/1983-01931-001
10th
grade students were shown subliminal messages in Hebrew saying: "Mommy and I are
one", "My teacher and I are one" and "People are walking in the street" (a
neutral statement). The Students received the messages four times per week for 6
weeks.
6 weeks later, the students exposed to the subliminal statement "Mommy and I are
one" scored higher in a maths exam than the other groups.
Psychologists claimed the messages such as "Mommy and I are one" would boost the
students self esteem and have an effect to help them learn. Also interestingly
when the messages were revealed so the students were aware of what they were
receiving the effect failed, giving support to the effectiveness of sending a
subliminal message rather than an overt one. (That's why we only give you sample
affirmations and not the whole script)

Better Darts Accuracy
Plumbo, R. and Gillman, I. "Effects of Subliminal Activation of Oedipal
Fantasies on Competitive Performance." The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease
(1984) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6502153
Subjects tested for their darts accuracy. They were exposed to the following
subliminal messages; "Beating him is OK", "Beating him is wrong", and a neutral
control message of "People are walking".
Results showed that people exposed to the message "Beating him is OK" showed
greater dart-throwing accuracy than people listening to any other messages.
This study shows that even a simple positive message played while throwing darts
can induce a greater level of accuracy.

Parker, K.A. "Effects of Subliminal Symbiotic Stimulation on Academic
Performance: Further Evidence on the Adaptation-Enhancing Effects of Oneness
Fantasies." Journal of Counseling Psychology (1982) http://psycnet.apa.org/record/1982-22098-001
60 college students on a summer law course for 6 weeks received subliminal
messages before 3 of their 5 lectures per week, as also before and after a brief
minute counseling session.
The subjects exposed to subliminal messaging achieved significantly higher
grades than the others, which were consistent with other earlier studies.
