Hi! I super understand this! It is a very wonderfully powerful thing we can do.
Changed my life "getting" this!

Does this resonate in any way?

Sorry, I missed this post.
Impressive take, ThatMan. :)

This is literally true. For instance, many of the bodies abilities are automatic responses, healing for instance is subconscious yet somehow known by the body without any awareness of it consciously. One of the key role of the subconscious. You know it but don't know you do. Imagine being cognitive of it and tapping into that. Now there is a reason why it is not known also, keep in mind which happens to be, once something becomes known (learned for instance) the brain no longer need to think about it and becomes habit and pattern that often becomes predetermined act in (things) which we learned. You don't have to think about it any longer. Everything we do works good or bad. The subconscious ability serves it's function. Conscious thought is not necessary. Such an interesting topic. But you made me think of something about both the subconscious and conscious connection and it is this. The subconscious is important because it no less creates reality (habit). Reality is not only from conscious thought and part of reality is from it. The subconscious creates our own realities as well and if one wishes to change habit or the subconscious you do it through the conscious mind. The conscious mind has it's own role. Hope to hear more.

The subconscious creates our own realities as well

The part about "healing" really caught my attention as that has been a major interest of mine ever since I emerged completely symptom-free from a 3-day "irreversible coma" near-death-experience (NDE) many years ago. The doctors had said that, in the unlikely event of survival, there would be severe brain/organ damage. They had no explanation for that complete spontaneous healing.

Most people are not aware that, with the multiple personality disorder (now known as a dissociative personality disorder), one personality can have a serious disease such as diabetes but the disease vanishes IMMEDIATELY when another non-diabetic personality emerges.

In my own healing situation, my sense now is that the more-enlightened personality that emerged from that mind-boggling, life-transforming NDE
was a major factor in that "miraculous" spontaneous healing.

In the depths of meditation, one no longer needs to "Imagine being cognitive of it and tapping into that". One directly experiences it and KNOWS.

Yes, "The subconscious creates our own realities as well" in ways that most people cannot even imagine.

Great post !
