It is underestimated, the power of our sub conscious mind. It has a profound impact on our immunity and wellbeing, which is already proven. The inter connection between our conscious, sub conscious and physical body are the aspects of much research by neuroscientists and beyond any doubt it is well established.

One of the bestselling books the power of your subconscious mind by Dr Joseph Murphy very clearly states that we have this great treasure and power house within us, is our sub conscious mind. From time immemorial its power has been utilized as faith healing and healing by holy persons or religious practices.

Many incurable diseases have been cured by this and even the placebo effect of medicines is due to that. Our sub conscious mind is 90% of our brain which never sleeps. It controls our autonomic nervous system of controlling our blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, blood sugar, digestion etc.

Only problem with subconscious mind is that it blindly accepts what conscious mind thinks repeatedly, especially when we go to sleep and when we wake up. Our thoughts during this time profoundly affects our sub conscious.

Due to the negative feedbacks regarding the COVID situation, number of deaths, funerals etc has created a fear and stressful situation, which not only produces repeated thoughts of fear, it releases the stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol  etc. which reduce our immunity, but also programs our subconscious in a negative way.

Yoga has played a good role as it feeds positivity into the sub conscious as well as improving body and mind. Do yoga, pranayam and meditation on a regular basis. Take modern and Ayurvedic immunity boosters. Every morning when you wake up and before going to sleep affirm yourself repeatedly in a confident and clear thought that the infinite intelligence that has created the universe has also created you and is there within you, taking care of , will protect you, you are healthy, full with immunity and whole( conscious and sub conscious working together).
