Autosuggestion 2

Autosuggestion means making a definite and specific suggestion to yourself according to Joseph Murphy in his popular book “The Power of Your Subconscious Mind”.  The average person is not aware of the powers of the subconscious mind and how thinking can create reality. All too often negative autosuggestions are the major factors in the lack of productivity, health issues and unhappiness. On the other hand positive autosuggestions can address fear and doubt and allow the seemingly impossible to become possible.

Our conscious mind makes use of the five senses and our life history to develop what we believe to be the truth about ourselves and others. The thoughts that we believe to be true are then sent to our subconscious mind that in turn will turn our thoughts into a reality.Joseph Murphy explains autosuggestion this way: “What thoughts, beliefs, opinions, or dogmas you write, engrave, or impress on your subconscious mind, you shall experience them as the objective manifestation of circumstances, conditions, and events”. 

When the brain receives thoughts from the conscious reasoning mind and those thoughts are accepted to be true they are sent to the solar plexus also known as the brain of your abdomen (your subconscious mind) where they become flesh and made to manifest in your life experience both internal and external.

If you believe you cannot achieve a goal you will encounter internal and external barriers that will keep you from achieving that goal. A major factor in negative Autosuggestion is a term called heterosuggestion. Hetrosuggestion means suggestions from another person. From an early age many have received negative hetrosuggestions about who they are and what they can achieve in life. We are who we think we are and we can achieve what we believe we can achieve.

Positive herterosuggestions can develop positive autosuggestions in individuals statement like black is beautiful in the 60’s  was an important hetrosuggestion that developed self-pride in large numbers of American from African descent who for year had been subjected with negative hertrosuggestions due to racism in this country. Creating inferiority complexes that continue exist in the subconscious minds of many. 

The election of President Barack Obama sent a powerful and positive herterosuggestion to a large number of blacks in America and the world, a fact that often goes unnoticed.
