The Biology of Perception

25. There is something else

--everyone is unique in what may set off their adrenaline. I think many many people have had traumatic experiences that can be triggered and make the adrenaline shoot up (raising her hand).

Here is what I think is going on with me, just in case anyone here thinks Felix doesn't have her issues

I am working on this, going to try out a meditation group this week. And one thing that HAS to change--is the 'Paradigm of Helplessness." We ARE fully capable of reprogramming our OWN subconscious, I think a lot of this has to do with not only listening to our own wisdom--but HONORING it and acting upon what we KNOW to be true. Tune into our bodies--and when something doesn't feel right-take steps to calm ourselves down in real time.

Another thing Bruce Lipton pointed out was that we spent too many hours each day on autopilot--which activates these subconscious programs. I think if we spend more time each day in a mindful conscious state, noticing our self-talk, what our bodies are telling us, then we can eventually reset our subconscious resting state--because remember he said--the subconscious is nothing but a tape recorder--we are just recording over the old stuff, we can't really change memories, but our RELATIONSHIP to the memories.
