In this episode of the Mind Body Link podcast, hosts Clancy Barton and Caroline Ashley discuss the profound connection between the mind and body and how it relates to chronic health conditions.

Clancy shares insights from her experience helping clients overcome challenges like autoimmune diseases and chronic pain. She explains how childhood experiences can shape the development of subconscious programs and neural pathways in the brain.

These programs can then be triggered by sensory inputs, activating the body's fight or flight response through the autonomic nervous system.

Clancy discusses how this ongoing stress response can deprive the body's systems of needed energy and contribute to chronic illness over time.

Listeners learn practical tools for cultivating self-awareness to recognize and manage emotional and physical triggers.

This episode provides valuable perspectives on understanding and addressing the root causes of chronic health problems.

In this episode, Carolanne Ashley and Clancy Barton discuss the workings of the subconscious mind and why it's difficult for people to understand their own mind.

Key topics covered include:

1. The Basics of the Mind:
   • Conscious Mind: Described as the logical and rational 'adult' part of the mind.
   • Subconscious Mind: Referred to as the emotional, imaginative 'child', handling automatic thoughts, patterns, and beliefs.
2. Understanding the Subconscious:
   • How the subconscious shapes reactions, habits, and feelings, often beneath conscious awareness.
   • The Iceberg Model - Visible part (conscious) and the hidden large part (subconscious).
3. Learning and Habits Formation:
   • Importance of early childhood in shaping the subconscious.
   • Role of neural pathways in reinforcing habits and beliefs.
4. Role of Subconscious in Daily Activities:
   • Automatic processing, such as driving, where the subconscious allows multitasking.
5. Subconscious and Emotions:
   • Connection between emotional responses and subconscious imprints from past experiences (e.g., fear of spiders).
6. Biases and Beliefs:
   • How the subconscious mind confirms existing beliefs and filters out conflicting information through the "critical faculty".
7. Practical Implications:
   • Influence of subconscious programming on behavior and life choices.
   • Use of hypnotherapy to modify subconscious programming and overcome personal challenges like stress, anxiety, and sleep disorders

Reflections: The power of the subconscious mind and its pervasive influence on life choices and mental health.
