The practice of endlessly mouthing affirmations appears to be waning
in favor of a new approach, which revolves around what has become
known as Whole Brain Affirmation.
The problem with affirmations uttered consciously is that they require
many repetitions. In addition, emotions must be intense for them to work. Rote repetition without feeling will rarely do the job. Whole Brain
Affirmation is an easier way to accomplish the objective. It will produce
a greater success ratio. What exactly is meant by the term? It means that you reach both
hemispheres of your brain when you implant the suggestion in your
subconscious. The left brain understands words and logic. The right brain, which is
the creative part, accepts only sensory images. Combine 1) words for the left and 2) images for the right when you are
in a 3) light trance (alpha state) and you will begin to experience amazing
results, after just a few sessions. To repeat, you must access your subconscious and affirm in such a
manner that the message reaches both the left brain, which is the literal,
logical, rational hemisphere, and the right brain, which is the more intuitive
and creative part. It boils down to this – words for the left, sensory stimuli for the right,
all of it done when you are in the alpha state, which is the desirable
light trance state. You do not have to actually induce the light trance. You have been in
and out of it naturally all your life, at least a few times each day. A natural alpha state occurs 1) when you are awakening from sleep,
or 2) in the twilight zone about to fall asleep, or 3) when you are totally
focused on a project at hand (known as a state of flow), or 4) when you
are deep daydreaming. It is at those times that a whole brain affirmation should be given. It
should be in words and also in pictures, sounds, and, if applicable, should
also include elements of touch, taste, and smell. The more you overlap
the senses, the more effective and vivid the images will be. When you are in the alpha state, you effectively bypass your conscious
beta state, so that the images and what you say go directly to your
subconscious. It is important to learn how to give yourself suggestions. You do not need
another person to do that. Your own voice, internally or externally sounded,
can be very effective, as long as you do it in whole brain fashion. There are two approaches you can use. First, you can do it internally, conjuring up the words and images without
outside sound. After a few sessions, this silent whole brain approach will
become much easier and more conditioned. Second, and the way many people prefer, is to tape record the words
and the descriptive images, then hit the play button as you drift off to
sleep, or first thing when awakening, or during the day when you find
yourself daydreaming or coming out of a state of flow. The tape approach works well because you can take as much time as
you want scripting the dialogue and narrating the images, filled with as
many sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste words as possible. After you hit the start button, you just listen and visualize. If you are not inclined to do it yourself, there are cutting-edge programs on the market. They use similar whole brain approaches but mask the affirmative statements with music or
other sounds to produce a subliminal effect. Playing the tapes for a few
weeks will implant the suggestions and effect change very effectively. The techniques described above constitute just a very small part of the
enormous arsenal contained in the sites you can access by
