A great metaphor for the conscious and subconscious mind is an iceberg. The conscious mind is the part of the iceberg we can see, representing our present moment awareness, and the subconscious mind is the part of the iceberg submerged under water, representing the aspects of our life we are not consciously aware of.

Consciousness and the subconscious mind are two distinct aspects of the human mind and play different roles in our thoughts, actions, and experiences.

Here’s an overview of consciousness and the subconscious:

Conscious: Consciousness refers to our immediate awareness of our thoughts, feelings, sensations, and the external world. It is the state of being awake and aware of ourselves and our surroundings.

When we are conscious, we can actively perceive, think, reason, and make deliberate decisions. Consciousness allows us to engage with the present moment, process information, and respond to stimuli consciously.

Key features of consciousness include:

• Awareness: Consciousness involves being aware of our thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations, and the external environment.
• Volition: Consciousness enables us to exercise will and make intentional choices based on our perceptions, beliefs, and values.
• Focus and Attention: Consciousness allows us to direct our attention to specific thoughts, experiences, or tasks.
• Analytical Thinking: Consciousness supports logical reasoning, problem-solving, and critical thinking.

Subconscious: The subconscious mind refers to the aspects of our mental processes that occur below the level of conscious awareness. It encompasses a vast array of automatic processes, memories, emotions, and patterns of thinking and behaving that influence our experiences and actions. The subconscious mind operates in the background, without our conscious effort or control.

Key features of the subconscious mind include:

• Automatic Processing: The subconscious mind handles routine tasks and processes without conscious awareness, such as breathing, regulating body temperature, or driving a familiar route.
• Memory Storage: The subconscious mind stores vast amounts of information, including memories, learned skills, and past experiences.
• Emotional Influences: Emotions and emotional associations are often influenced by subconscious processes, shaping our responses and behaviours.
• Beliefs and Conditioning: The subconscious mind holds deeply ingrained beliefs, values, and conditioning acquired through past experiences and societal influences, which can shape our attitudes, biases, and automatic responses.

It’s important to note that the boundaries between consciousness and the subconscious mind are not always rigid. They can interact and influence each other. For example, certain subconscious processes can rise to the level of conscious awareness, and conscious thoughts and intentions can impact subconscious patterns or beliefs over time.

Understanding the interplay between conscious and subconscious processes can help us gain insights into our behaviors, motivations, and overall well-being.

Techniques such as meditation, hypnosis, or psychotherapy can sometimes facilitate access to and exploration of the subconscious mind, allowing individuals to uncover and address underlying patterns or beliefs that may impact their lives. However, the Body Code is the most direct and effective method to find and clear negative energies, limiting beliefs, and imbalances.
