FIRST, think of a big circle that represents your head and this is connected by a line to a smaller circle that represents your body and extending out from the "body" circle are four short lines that represent your arms and legs.
SECOND, think of a horizontal line that divides the "head" circle into an upper half and a lower half. The upper half is where your CONSCIOUS MIND resides and the lower half is where your SUBCONSCIOUS MIND resides. In other words the head represents the mind and everything from the neck down represents the body. This is a picture representation and you must remember that your mind is located in every cell of your body. It is not isolated just in the brain. Now, let us add some content and meaning to this picture.

FOURTH, your subconscious mind is your emotional mind and it can only accept thoughts that are impressed upon it. Your subconscious mind has no concept of positive or negative it only understands what is. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO REALIZE THIS! For example, if you say to yourself "I do not want to be poor" all that your subconscious mind registers is "I want to be poor." If you say to yourself "I do not want to be sick" all that your subconscious mind registers is "I want to be sick."
THE KEY is this - DO NOT DWELL ON WHAT YOU DO NOT WANT. The mind attracts what it dwells on the most. If you focus on and keep repeating in your mind what you do not want that is exactly what you will get. FOCUS ON WHAT YOU WANT. You want to be healthy, you want to be happy, you want to have what you desire.
