How often do you hear ‘change is hard’? Did you know that your subconscious is the ‘program’ that drives your conscious behaviors and actions? It makes up approximately 90% of our mind, where our conscious and analytical mind is only 10%. Our subconscious stores memories, emotions, beliefs and more, which drives what we do.

I recently remodeled an older home and one improvement I made was to update the flooring. Many of the contractors said, ‘you can lay this new flooring on top of what you have, no problem’. Instead, I chose to rip out the old flooring, ensuring the new floors were laid on a clean, clear, stable foundation.

We found that previous owners had already laid floor on top of floor. If we laid the new flooring on top of the old, do you think it would have adhered correctly? No! Do you think it would have laid even? No! Do you think the new floors would leak and crack? Absolutely!

In order to change, we need to work with the subconscious mind to remove the old debris which no longer serves us, such as limiting beliefs, negative emotions and negative thinking. Trying to make a change without clearing out what no longer serves you is like continually laying new floors on top of the old and outdated; they won’t stick properly and will only cause further problems and frustration.

Change is easy, if you have the owner’s manual to your mind. One of the techniques I use is called a Personal Breakthrough Experience with Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Timeline Therapy™. It’s the owner’s manual to your mind and a toolkit which helps make lasting change at the subconscious level. You can learn more about my personal NLP experiences below.
