The first seven years of life shape our subconscious mind and behaviors: Understanding the impact of early life programming can help us recognize the need for reprogramming and create positive change in our lives
Our subconscious minds, which make up 95% of our behaviors, are often shaped by the programming we receive during our first seven years of life, much of which may be unhelpful and sabotage the quality of our lives. Dr. Bruce Lipton, a guest on the Feel Better Live More podcast, emphasizes this point, explaining that we often live our lives based on the programming we've received from others, rather than consciously choosing our actions. This programming can be difficult to recognize, as we may not see the patterns in our own behavior that others can see so clearly. To illustrate this, Dr. Lipton uses the example of a friend who exhibits behaviors similar to those of their parents, despite denying any resemblance. He emphasizes that the brain functions like a computer, requiring programming before it can be used, and that our early life experiences shape the programming that drives our behaviors. Understanding this can help us recognize the need for reprogramming and create positive change in our lives.

The first seven years shape 95% of adult behaviors: Recognize and reprogram disempowering beliefs instilled during childhood through therapy, meditation, or positive affirmations.
The first seven years of a child's life plays a significant role in shaping their subconscious mind, which later influences 95% of their behaviors as adults. During this period, a child's brain operates primarily at a lower level of consciousness called Theta, which is a state of hypnosis. Parents and surroundings serve as the primary sources of programming during this time, with children unconsciously absorbing messages and beliefs. Unfortunately, 60% of these programs can be disempowering and limiting. Parents, unintentionally, can instill negative beliefs in children under seven through their words and actions, which can manifest as detrimental behaviors in their adult lives. To change these limiting programs, it's essential to recognize their origins and work on reprogramming the subconscious mind through various methods like therapy, meditation, or positive affirmations.
Utilizing Theta brainwave state for subconscious reprogramming: Reprogram your subconscious mind through self-hypnosis by listening to self-help programs or soothing sounds before bed, or through habituation by consistently practicing an action until it becomes second nature.
Our brains operate in different frequency levels, and one of those levels is theta, which occurs during hypnosis and just before we fall asleep. This is a crucial time for reprogramming our subconscious mind. We can utilize this by listening to self-help programs or soothing sounds through earphones before bed, allowing the subconscious mind to absorb the information while we sleep, a practice known as self-hypnosis. Another way to reprogram our subconscious mind is through habituation, or consistently practicing and repeating an action until it becomes second nature. These methods can be applied to various aspects of our lives, such as learning a new skill or improving relationships.
Transforming through conscious practice and repetition: Acting as desired person can lead to genuine change through consistent practice and immersion, aligning with true self
Our behaviors and mindset can be changed through conscious practice and repetition, leading to the formation of new subconscious habits. This concept is similar to how actors prepare for a role by immersing themselves in the character, leading to a transformation that can feel genuine even when the role is over. This idea, often referred to as "fake it till you make it," involves intentionally acting as the person you want to become, even if it feels insincere at first. Over time, through consistent practice, these new behaviors can become ingrained and lead to lasting change. The speaker used the example of actors gaining or losing weight for a role to illustrate this concept. Additionally, the speaker emphasized that this transformation involves becoming more in line with our true selves rather than adopting a completely new identity.
The Power of Resonance: Positive Emotions Create Positive Vibrations: Positive emotions create positive vibrations that attract similar energies, while negative emotions resonate with more negativity. Utilizing energy psychology tools like super learning can help us make significant changes in our thoughts and behaviors.
Our emotions and actions create vibrations or energies that resonate with others and the world around us. This concept, known as resonance, is a fundamental principle in quantum physics. If we put out positive vibrations, such as happiness or love, we will attract similar energies. Conversely, negative emotions like anger or sadness will only resonate with more negativity. This can be seen in our everyday interactions with others. A simple smile or recognition can have a profound impact on someone's day. Furthermore, a new field of psychology called energy psychology offers methods to quickly reprogram our subconscious minds. One such method is super learning, which allows us to absorb information rapidly and effectively. By engaging this process, we can make significant changes in our thought patterns and behaviors in a short amount of time. Ultimately, understanding the power of resonance and utilizing tools like energy psychology can help us create positive changes in our lives and in the world around us. As Bruce Lipton states, "Be happy. Just be happy. People want to be happy."
Reprogramming ourselves for a better reality: Through habituation, energy psychology, self-hypnosis and other methods, we can reprogram ourselves for a more positive reality, leading to improved lives and greater fulfillment.
We have the power to create our own reality, but if we've been programmed negatively, we need to work on reprogramming ourselves. This can be achieved through various methods such as habituation, energy psychology, and self-hypnosis. The process may take time, but the rewards are worth it. Bruce, a guest on this podcast, emphasized that we are creators and encouraged listeners to use their creativity to manifest their desired reality. He also suggested checking out his Friday Five email for weekly doses of positivity. In essence, by focusing on creating positive changes in ourselves, we can improve our lives and get more out of them.
