Freud was an Austrian psychiatrist, psychologist, and founder of the psychoanalytic school.
The subconscious mind was first proposed by the psychologist Freud. We are usually unaware of the subconscious mind, but it can control most of our mental activities. The "self" is like a huge iceberg floating on the surface of the water, consciousness is only a small part of the surface of the water, and the larger mountain hidden under the surface of the water is the subconscious that has been suppressed for a long time and ignored by us, unveiling the secrets of the iceberg, we will see the desire, expectation, value and belief in life, see the essence of life, the true self.
Freud divided the subconscious into two parts: the pre-conscious and the unconscious. In his theory of psychology, the unconscious, the preconscious, and the conscious mind, although three different levels, are interrelated system structures. Freud made an analogy of this structure: the unconscious system is a foyer, and various mental impulses, like many individuals, are crowded together with each other. The second room connected to the foyer is like a reception room, where consciousness rests. There was a guard at the door between the foyer and the reception room, who examined all sorts of mental impulses, and for those impulses that he disapproved of, he would not allow them into the reception room. The impulse to be allowed into the reception room, the unconscious, once enters the system of the pre-conscious, they attract the attention of the conscious, they become conscious, and the unconscious is completely unobservable and understood until it is not noticed by the conscious.
Subconscious features:
Feature one: repetition, through multiple repetitions to stimulate subconscious memory, which is also what we used to call the means of forming long-term memory. A concept that is constantly repeated by the subconscious mind will be accepted by the subconscious mind, and statistically when a concept is repeated 30 times, it will be accepted by the subconscious mind. Therefore, for an idea needs to be repeated repeatedly, the process of repetition is the process of shaking the patterns in the conscious mind, so that it will be accepted by the subconscious, and the beliefs accepted by the subconscious mind will be repeated continuously.
Characteristic two: do not distinguish between true and false, the subconscious mind has no ability to distinguish between true and false, the subconscious mind is like a container, it will naturally and without any judgment to accept some instructions and information. This leads to ways in which we change our thinking.
Characteristic three: like things with rhythm, for example, when you hear others sing or play a song, you will also unconsciously hum it, which is the subconscious mind in worship.
Feature four: The subconscious way of communication is to use colored images and symbols, so in dreams, most of them will dream of images, not language.
Characteristic five: there is a preference for things with emotional overtones.
Feature Six: Doesn't know how to deal with negative words, "Please don't think about a black cat." "What do you have in mind?" Maybe what you're thinking of now is a black cat. Because the subconscious mind only accepts positive and direct descriptions, and cannot understand negative words. The subconscious mind accepts only positive direct descriptions that have defined a state that can have a direct and definite effect on our subconscious.
Feature Seven: It is easiest to enter the subconscious mind when relaxed.
