Our subconscious governs 95% of our life. It is running in the background like a software that you're not even aware of and it does that, together with the nervous system, to keep us alive. 95% of our life is basically ...all of it. That means that what we don't know that we don't know about ourselves is creating our lives and reality for us. And that's why it's so important to become aware.
So what goes into the storage room of our being, the subconscious? Almost everything we experience, so bear with me.
First, many memories. Either because they're too painful to bring to surface as a protective mechanism, or because you make no use of remembering every little thing that ever happened to you. You may remember important events from your childhood, but not all of your childhood and probably not the very painful ones.
Then, another thing that goes into our subconscious is what parents tell us about ourselves. It becomes part of who we are as beings. What they said about us, frequently enough, becomes stored as core beliefs that lead our lived from the shadow. So if your parents kept telling you You're too sensitive, your ingrained belief about yourself is that you're too sensitive and this is wrong, that translates into your suboncious as something is wrong about me, I am defective and bad at the core, this is how I was born and there is nothing I can do about it. Something is wrong with me is hence a core belief you have that lies at the heart of everything you do and you are not aware of this. This core belief generates shame and shame is all about not meeting a certain standard of being. I will talk more about shame in the following videos.
Core beliefs are stored in the subconscious and they become your reality, running your life without your awareness. But these beliefs that you unknowingly hold about yourself are not only absorbed from what parents directly tell you about yourself. They are also formed as conclusions that you, as a child draw from paying attention to your surroundings, your environment and from what happens to you. Children are self absorbed and egocentric until the age of 7, and they cannot separate people, ideas and views from their own. A child will make everything mean something about themselves. If parents fight, you think it's because of you. If they divorce, you think it's about you. "They argue because of me, because I am bad".
This is a trauma and anything that is bad that we are a part of and we cannot process because we dont know how and we we too young, this als goes into our subconscious so that we don't have to have immediate access to it. Traumas also make us form core beliefs about ourselves, limiting us and preventing us from living a full and authentic life.
Trauma teaches us how to see life and what to expect from life and from people. We see everything though the filter that our trauma implanted into our subconscious. If we have been betrayed as children by our parents not keeping their word often enough so that it becomes ingrained, the filter created by the trauma says that we must expect everyone to betray us in the exact same way. And guess what. It happens. It's a self fulfilling prophecy as we create that which we hold most focus on, even if we don't even have a clue we have that belief. We create all the time all the experiences that we mostly expect to. So this takes me to where I wanted to talk about today, which is the vibration of the trauma. We know that everything is energy, from the chair you sit on to the thoughts and feelings. And energy is always in motion, always vibrating at specific, particular frequencies.
Low vibrations or frequencies are associated with negative thoughts, disempowerment, sickness etc. High frequencies are associated with love, happiness, wholeness, health, freedom, spiritual awareness.
Trauma too holds its specific frequency that it vibrates at, obviously a low one. If as a child let's say you were taught helplessness, the helplessness vibrates at a specific low vibration. The trauma of helplessness is hence hidden away in your subconscious, stored as painful feelings, but also as core beliefs that you drew directly from learning helplessness: "I'm powerless,I'm not good enough, I'm incapable of handling things by myself etc" And these core beliefs that you have no idea about are
governing your life 95% of the time. And so in your adult life you may wonder why you always feel discouraged, disempowered, unable to do what you want to do or lack motivation: because you vibe at the low frequency of helplessness. This is why it is so important to bring your uncomfortable feelings into the light of the conscious awareness. The second you become aware of your feelings and acknowledge them you no longer hold the same low vibration as they do because by seeing them and witnessing them you enter into the space of the detached observer. And that automatically implies you raised your vibration, you're no longer identified with that helplessness. Awareness of your feelings and thoughts take you out of the low vibrational space that was ingrained in your subconscious and your nervous system as well, by that trauma at the moment it occurred in your past.
And so I want to end this by emphasizing again the utmost importance of not turning a blind eye to your feelings anymore. I will keep repeating this: the emotions and feelings that crop up and are uncomfortable don't mean to harm you. They want you to pay attention to them and validate them. Sit with them, ask what they want to tell you. I will elaborate on how to do this on later episodes. Everything is energy and everything has a specific vibration. If your subconscious that runs most of your life is filled with low vibrational core beliefs and memories, would you expect to lead a happy life? Obviously not. You could be rich and have everything money can buy and still not be happy if you have not dealt with your painful emotions and integrated the splits in you in order to become whole again. Being and living in your wholeness and authenticity is all your being truly longs for. Every hurt and every aspect in you yearns one thing and one thing only: to comeback home.
