Why are we as Psychoneurologists so successful in creating change in our clients?
In order to create a lasting change in someone, we need to make those changes on the unconscious level. Our goal is to operate in the realm of how a person is going to feel. In the language of Psychoneurology, the way a person feels is directly related to how that individual vibrates in their unconscious state. The unconscious works in the realm of feeling and feeling is the true state that we work with. The language of unconscious is Emotion and The Unconscious works associatively and not logically; emotions are a product of the unconscious. So, a feeling or emotion is unconscious. We understand that in order to be successful in life and in our practice we need to use our heart and our mind in conjunction with each other. Our heart has wisdom and our mind does not. Our mind makes up stories, and predisposes us to create anxiety, depression, and co-dependency. While the mind can make up stressful stories, it can definitely create joyful and happy ones. Our heart on the other hand is pure; it is simple; it is intuitive; it makes the right decisions for us without making up stories. We as Psychoneurologists use both heart and mind and that is the reason we have wisdom in order to create a change that has value. The basis behind study of Psychoneurology is that each individual human being is already perfect and complete and therefore can achieve greater health and success by integrating appropriate resources or more learning.
In traditional form of therapy, which is generated from the cognitive mind, the psychologist is not creating change on the UNCONSCIOUS level and therefore is not creating change at a vibrational and emotional level. Pathology, which is the science or the study of the origin, nature, and course of diseases, is a conscious- mind model. Pathology is also dis-ease expanding in the sense that psychologists are adept at finding out where the patients are broken, have problems, and then label them. The psychologist’s intention is to bring things to clarity and to process them. In other words, by asking questions after questions, they are trying to tap into what the patient has stored in their subconscious or unconscious mind, that is, the part of the mind the client is not fully aware of, that influences the way the patient acts and feels. This form of questioning results in bringing what was in the realm of the unconscious into the conscious mind. It is an intellectual concept that if you have understanding you can change that experience. We as Psychoneurologists know if we understand something that happened to us which created a trauma or phobia, for example, that understanding would not have the ability to change how we feel and think each time we remember that incident. As Psychoneurologists we do not need to ask question after question because the subconscious mind already has the information of what is not working for them. In order for us to free our clients of that fear forever, we need to add new unconscious learnings and resources or create a new neural pathway of feeling calm.
Psychologists, psychiatrists, even social workers, and, in fact, virtually all mental health care practitioners look at their client/patient and ask the following types of questions: “Why are you suffering/hurting/unhappy? What caused or is causing this problem? When was the first time you had this problem? How does this make you feel?” This is the “Problem model” which makes the issues stronger and also guides the patient towards looking more into what does not or has not been working in their life. While this makes sense from the perspective of the conscious, thinking mind, it largely bypasses what the unconscious mind is doing. These are all mind-centered questions that ignore vibration.
