It is a well known fact that most humans use only about 10% of their potential mind power. It’s something staggering to think about; how high must our potential be if we only use this small fraction of our minds! What could you accomplish if you were able to use 100% of your mind?

The scientific opinion has long been that those who have psychic abilities and extra sensory perception are able to use these abilities by tapping into those great unused mental reserves. Some seem to have been born with these abilities, while others learn later on in life how to start using this potential mindpower.

It’s unclear how these psychic powers relate to our mental development, but there is plenty of work going on into finding out how these abilities are developed and how we can change the world around us with our mind power.

There have also been many studies that seem to suggest that our minds really do have the power to shape our world ? more than being shaped by the world around them!

Recently popular films like ‘The Secret’ have explained the theory of the Law of Attraction, so that people are realizing they have the power to change the way they see things simply through the power of their minds; by doing so, they can attract abundance of every kind into their lives.

This principle states that there are causes and effects to everything, even our own thoughts can bring about tangible effects if directed properly. It all relies on being able to get your conscious mind to communicate to your subconscious in order to use your latent mindpower to achieve results.

What this means is that your subconscious mind is responsible for so-called ‘psychic powers’ and other special powers like precognition, remote viewing, and telepathy. However, it’s also responsible for what you desire because it reacts directly with the ‘universe’ or what some may call the ‘universal consciousness,’ to manifest what you attract to you.

Affirmations:- By repeating affirmations to ourselves, they eventually reach the subconscious which then changes your behavior to make the desired outcome a reality. You can use affirmations to break bad habits with affirmations like ‘I hate junk food and never eat anything bad for my health’. You could also increase your self esteem by using an affirmation along the lines of ‘I am a valuable person who people look to as a role model’.

Affirmations:- Affirmations are a well known positive thinking technique. When you repeat a positive affirmation to yourself, your subconscious begins to understand and begin using your untapped mindpower and start making your wishes a reality.

In fact, affirmations can do far more than this. You can use affirmations to develop your mindpower and change reality itsef!

Done consistently and repetitiously, affirmations do indeed work to change the behavior at hand. Affirmations work by communicating directly with your subconscious mind, which ultimately changes what your subconscious mind actually does for you. In short, it ultimately makes you behave and think differently.

Now, let’s take this one stage further. Realize that what you want to change is going to change — and not just any bad habits you want to go away and to be replaced with good ones, but everything you experience as your reality. This is indeed true mind power.

Using visualization:- Visualization is another technique that you can use to develop your mind power. With visualization, you imagine what you want to happen and visualize it in your mind’s eye. Visualize your success and having everything you’ve ever wanted. Do you want a new car? Visualize it. A new house? Visualize it. You can also make a scrapbook of sorts before you visualize, putting into it pictures of things that you want to manifest in your life. The scrapbook can help you focus. Keep visualizing on a consistent basis and the things you want will really appear for you.

You can also use visualization to cement your belief that you are psychic. See yourself communicating by using telepathy, or being able to foresee future events, or to practice remote viewing. Mind power can help you accomplish anything you want to, literally.

Using hypnosis:- Hypnosis is another way that you can communicate with your subconscious and therefore tap into the awesome power of your mind. You can visit a professional hypnotherapist or hypnotist. The hypnotist will guide you into a deeply relaxed state and then offer suggestions to your subconscious mind that will help you change bad behaviors or beliefs, or introduce good ones. And contrary to popular belief, you’ll remember what has happened to you in your trancelike state even after you have come back to your normal state.

You don’t necessarily have to go to a professional hypnotist either. You can use the technique of self hypnosis, listening to a hypnotherapy session which has been recorded. This is far cheaper than going to a hypnotist yourself and of course, you can use this recording anytime you like.

Using brainwave entrainment:- A new audio technology has recently introduced. Called ‘brainwave synchronization,’ this alters your brainwave to a certain frequency, which can result in many positive changes. For example, you may improve your memory with one frequency, while with another one, you can encourage endorphins to be released into your body that can therefore alleviate and even heal pain.

Other brainwave frequencies can help you get into a meditative state very quickly, so that you can communicate directly with your subconscious mind and therefore facilitate developing your mind power.

You can also stimulate parts of your body known as your ‘chakras’ with brainwave frequency work. Chakras are energy centers. One particular chakra is in the center of your forehead. Called the ‘third eye,’ this is what is responsible for your ability to be psychic.

However, it needs to be noted that you don’t actually ‘develop’ these powers. Instead, you have them already. Some have thought that humans indeed had this power many thousands of years ago, but it has become repressed and devalued in the years since.

In fact, when we speak of developing mindpower, it might be more accurate to talk about unleashing these powers which lie inside all of us and allowing us to use our full mental potential.
