What is Mind Power and How is it Used?
« on: December 11, 2013, 12:38:36 PM »
Mind power is a very interesting, yet tricky subject. For those of you who do not fully understand the concept and possibilities of mind power, you are in for a real treat!

Many people commonly confuse brain power with mind power. However, these are two separate entities. Brain power is what we use in our daily lives to complete tasks such as breathing, eating, sleeping, working, and so on. The brain is a very real and tangible object. The mind is also very real, but it is intangible making the possibility of its power greater.

The mind has two parts which are the conscious mind and the unconscious mind. The conscious mind is everything that is inside of our awareness. This means that any feelings, emotions, sensations, memories, perceptions or anything that you can think about or talk about take place in your conscious mind. The unconscious mind is everything that is outside of our awareness. This means that any feelings, emotions, memories, thoughts, fantasies, and so on are things that you are unaware of taking place in your unconscious mind, but they still affect your everyday life.

Sigmund Freud believed that whatever was enclosed in your unconscious mind was typically unpleasant or unwanted which is the reason they are not conscious to you. Doctors and scientists have come to believe that humans only use about nine to eleven percent of their brain power. One question that is raised in science and medicine is that if a person was able to increase the percentage of their brain used and raised their Intelligence Quotient – IQ, could they control the direction of their life for better or worse?

Now that you have a basic understanding of what mind power is and how it affects your life past, present, and future, you can begin to learn how to train and strengthen your mind power. With the right tools and skills, you will be able to harness your mind power and increase the positive outcomes in your life! However, if you aren’t quite a believer yet, take a look at what is called the Placebo Effect.

The placebo effect is used by doctors and scientists in many experiments to prove or disprove a theory. A placebo can also be used in medical experiments to see if a certain medication actually helps patients with a disease or illness. You may be wondering how the placebo effect ties into mind power and how it can work. Well, here it is. Doctors take two different groups of people who are sick. One group will get the actual medication that is meant to help the patients get better, while the other group will get the placebo.

The placebo used in experiments is typically a sugar pill that does nothing. However, the patients who are getting the placebo do not know this and think they are actually taking medication for their illness. Studies have been done that show the group who got the placebo actually had higher rates of success than the group that got the actual medication. This leads doctors and scientists to believe that the power of the mind can actually heal a person who is sick.

This is wonderful news for people suffering from all sorts of illnesses. You can train your mind to make yourself physically better! Your mind already has the power to heal you and it lies in your subconscious. If you truly believe that you can get better, than you will! There are many people around the world that practice ways to increase their mind power and use it for many different things.

Psychokinesis is just one way people demonstrate the use of their mind power. Psychokinesis is the process by which objects are moved by the mind without the use of physical means. Felicia Parise is known all over the world for her psychokinetic powers. Felicia is able to move small objects such as match sticks, pen tops, bottles, and other objects with using only her mind. She would wave her hands over an object and it would move a few inches.

Another person who is known for their mind power use is Uri Gellar who is a famous spoon bender. People like these exist all over the world and participate in mind power studies for further conclusive proof that you can use your mind power to heal yourself and better your life.

Dr. Ellen Langer is a professor of psychology at Harvard University. She has done many studies in the mind power field. One of her best-known studies involved nursing home patients who were taught to have more power over their lives by increasing their mind power through training. The studies showed that those patients lived longer than patients who were not part of the study. She also conducted a study where she told maids of a hotel that the work they did burned as many calories as a workout, which actually led them to lose more weight! The power of the mind is an incredible thing.

Many people believe that there are specific places around the world that hold higher levels of positive energy which can help you achieve a higher mind power. Some of these places include India, Tibet and the Himalayas. However, you don’t have to venture to these places to achieve higher mind power. There are many ways you can increase your mind power and take control of your life’s path.

There are a few simple things such as memory games, speed games, focus games, and attention games you can play to increase your mind power. You can also meditate or try self-hypnosis to help you focus and concentrate which also increases your mind power. Gandhi once said, “A man is but the product of his thoughts. What he thinks, he becomes.”
