For the Conscious Language Class. Here is some info from Gay and Katie Hendricks on the power of unconscious commitments. You can see why it is so imperative to upgrade what is going on in the subconscious. Gay's example is great!............

Thank you again for joining us in the journey of conscious, loving relationships. It's our life purpose to help you expand in love and creativity every day, and we appreciate your dedication to learning about this most important area of your life.

The power of commitment is one of the most important principles we live and teach.
To understand how powerful commitment really is, you have to understand both conscious commitment and unconscious commitment. Conscious commitment is when you look your partner in the eyes and say something like "I commit to speaking honestly with you about my feelings." If your commitment is sincere and heartfelt, two powerful things will happen. First, you'll move toward manifesting that commitment in your daily life. Second, and maybe even more important, your commitment will bring to the surface any of your barriers to making that commitment real.

One of the biggest evolutionary jumps in life is the moment you learn how to spot your unconscious commitments. Here's a big piece of wisdom to guide you in that process: You can see what your unconscious commitments are by looking at the negative results in your life. Gay tells a story: "In my twenties I produced the negative result several times in a row of getting involved in relationships with women who had addictions. I complained about this up, down and sideways to each of the women, all to no avail. I tried to get them to stop the drinking or the smoking or the Valium, but the more I tried the less it helped. Finally one day I had the following "sober" realization: The problem is ME. I'm unconsciously committed to being in a relationship with a woman who's an addict. The proverbial lightbulb went on in my mind: my mother had addiction problems, so from the moment I was conceived I was in a relationship with an addict. I spent a lot of energy trying to save her from herself in my young life, so it's no surprise that I would keep re-creating the pattern in my adult relationships. I'm happy to say that from that moment on, I've never fallen in love with another addict (and REALLY glad I never married any more of them!)"

What are the conscious commitments you want to live by? What are the unconscious commitments that are producing the negative results in your life? We invite you to wonder about these questions and embrace the insights that your wondering brings forth.


With love,

Jeanette,
I love your post quoting Guy and Katie Hendricks about recognizing unconscious commitments in our life patterns so we can upgrade them. Gay and Katie share an important insight about our work of facing our personal responsibility for recognizing and changing the programs in our subconscious. It adds clarity and richness to our first class on Consciousness as the one and only reality. I am pausing to re think about what programs I accommodate, and honestly reflect how to reseed my highest outcomes into my surroundings. Thanks so much for sharing. Patricia West

Patricia,
Can you speak in specifics about a real life example of how you reseed your highest outcomes into your surroundings?

Yes, my example is about diet. I start by seeing the foods I am eating and desiring to upgrade. I now imagine and see how my meal would be living from outcome (or my goal). I see my new chosen food; I am eating a scrumptious salad of mixed dark leafy greens, sweet carrots, tangy radishes, crunchy celery, crispy sprouts, fresh pecans, and sun dried cranberrys, a vibrant yellow hard boiled egg, juicy garden fresh picked tomatoes, and some crunchy white daikon all over striped with a sushi grade pink salmon. Mydressing of choice is a tahini ginger lemon and vinaigrette with a touch of curry- salt. It looks colorful, alive and vibrant with nutrition and tastes delicious. I smell the tang of the dressing and taste the occasional sweet tart of cranberries and I enjoy both my lunch and my decision. And I am motivated to continue planning beautiful healthy meals. This example is specific and engages all my senses and my emotions. How do I feel about what I am describing.

Very powerful example Patricia, thank you for sharing. YUM! I know what I am having for lunch tomorrow and the next day. Actually makes me want to go make and eat a salad right now. I can see how this re-languaging helps transform lives.

I AM joyful that I have recognized an subconscious commitment to NEED.

I now choose to renounce that commitment
to I AM choosing to upgrade my inner and outer language to reflect my confidence in my new commitment in attrcting Abundance in my thoughts on perfect health for myself and loved ones, the perfect amount of financial health for us to have available for all our
projects according to Divine will.

If you haven't tried EFT (emotional freedom technique/tapping) along with C.L., you have something to look forward to. Pick out a statement that really resounds with your heart (take your time) and then do EFT with it (google EFT for lots of easy explanations). You could choose something like: "I lovingly discipline myself to exercise every morning". EFT reinforces this statement for you by bringing your meridians into action. As you choose new positive actions, apply EFT and see what happens! Incidentally, Dr. Joseph Mercola has a wonderful (fast/easy/simple) explanation with pictures showing how he applies EFT. His web site and email make it easy to find.

Yes! thank you Donna for the reminder. EFT gets through to the Subconscious without fail. Forming the right statement is Key and 'newbies'may wonder about the first
defining statement to Tap on. One example might be,"even 'tho I forget to practice CL I still love myself and I am now newly commiting to daily practice"
First learning the EFT methodology is important.
