Some people who fall in trance easily lose consciousness, they don't remember a thing, when you give them suggestion they act on some and not on others, the conscious mind does nothing here as far as I'm aware. Also if you test it on yourself, the conscious mind is slow, when you do things fast, ask a question very fast and the first reaction will come from the subconscious, if you overload the conscious mind, the subconscious take the decision. Many things we don't do consciously. There are a lot of little test you can do on yourself to test this and ask things to your subconscious mind, often he won't cooperate. I also believe that there is something above the subconscious mind that is guiding the subconscious mind but that's another topic and it's just theory at this point.
I have a friend who is a "pseudo hypnotist", consciously he want to do hypnosis as a job. But each time I watch him closely and give him conscious advice on how to become one his subconscious finds ways to resist and ignore everything I say. On this particular case he is more like a robot without much conscious decisions, his subconscious does almost take all the important decision, he thinks he is in control but he is not.
Most people I encounter are more controlled by their subconscious, and doesn't take much conscious decisions.
I think to get more conscious and get more control over your subconscious mind one way to do that is to do meditation. As you remove the mindless chatter in your mind you get more control over your body and you are less prone to get lost in mindless thought that removes you from conscious decision
@Shannon what's your opinion on that, do you think meditation would help subliminal work better? what do you think meditation does on your subconscious mind relationship with your conscious mind.
There are different types of meditation, and I am not an expert on that matter. If you can find a way to communicate to your subconscious mind that the reasons it resists are invalid, and get it to cooperate, that's a good thing. So far bypassing the conscious mind's influence completely, as we do with subliminals, this has been very challenging. It is certainly possible that meditating the right way might help. I can't say for sure. As to what it does, that depends on the type of meditation, the dedication, the experience, the personality, etc.
