The Power of The Mind- Is There an Easy Way to Unlock It?

by Lorelei Fenton

Every day we hear claims that we can have anything we want- wealth, abundance, happiness, lasting and fulfilling love- just by opening our minds to it, and using our brains more fully. We endeavor to cram our brains full of information in this the age of information. But still we can’t seem to unlock that more than 70% of our brain’s capacity that we don’t use.  Often the task of doing this seems to elude us.

If you are interested in the power of the mind you can access a lot of tools to help you on your way. You can buy cards and mini-books created by famed affirmation-ist Louise Haye, and read them daily. You can join a 12-step program, such as Alanon (if you have or know someone who has an addiction.) If not, you can at least read the 12-step books and use the slogans daily. You can do meditations, and yoga, and a myriad of body-mind-spirit practices that will help you unlock the power of the mind by going within the body. All of these are valid and very beneficial.

How often have you gone to a party in this, the’ new age of enlightenment’ and heard someone talk about ‘mind over matter’ or a way to increase mental power. If you’re like me you nodded your head yes to the person across from you, while also thinking “Well, you can say it- but can you do it?” Or more to the point, you thought ‘But can I really do it.” And there may have been some frustration because you’d been working on that skill for a long time already. And if you’re like me, you were probably not acknowledging your successes- but only how far you seemed to be from your goals.

The Landmark Forum is a life-changing course that you can take if you want to get a good look at how the mind operates. In that course you will look at what it means to be human, and how your very ’self’ is created at a young age. You will be able to then dissect the process to re-create aspects of yourself and cause yourself to be any way that you want to be. For instance if you are very shy- you can re-create yourself as outgoing. And do it naturally, with no struggle. One of the quintessential things you will do in this work is look at how the brain operates. You will find it often empowers you- but just as often does the opposite.

It has been said that the mind is a machine. It is a machine very much like a computer. When you input information into the mind’s machine, the mind comes up with an answer. Unfortunately, sometimes what you put in the machine is intrinsically flawed information. Life gives the mind a scarring experience. Life gives it other people’s words that cause pain. Life gives the mind physical and emotional trauma. Usually these events are not the average. They are not happening every day. But by their very oddity the machine that is the mind singles them out, and makes special note of them. It then outputs some negative thought into your brain that will stick with you for life- and may sometimes be so intrinsic that you can’t even see it.

I have often wondered, is it truly possible that the mind can speak to the very cells in your body? Is it true that the mind can heal cancerous cells, cause you to lose weight, whether or not you diet, and allow you to become masterful at some task that even if you believe yourself to have no skill in that direction. I have wondered if this were the true meaning of the biblical term that ‘faith can move a mountain.’ Perhaps truly believing does cause miracles. Or perhaps the truly believing is the miracle.

How would it be, I wonder, if we could skip over the hard work of constant bathroom affirmations, cards, and readers? What would it be like to just lay there and listen to a tape or CD- then fall to sleep and allow the magic to work on you the next day and into the future. Experts say this method, called brain entrainment, is entirely possible- and even works very well. I am also told does not involve any scary ’subliminal messages.’ This is such a fascination for me- this thought that I really can train my brain without working so hard- that I am inclined to try this method and let you know how it works.

It is said that we can increase our mental power and access the power of our minds through brain entrainment. I am sure this is very true. But the true test for me will be will I do it steadily, every day, until the learning sinks in? Or perhaps I need to first buy the entrainment CD that will train me to do that.
