Do you remember when life was simple and just believing alone was enough for manifestation, when we were faith-filled enough to expect and accept the power of the subconscious mind to supply our needs, both on the spiritual and material planes?
Ah, for the simple life!

Some time ago I started reading a book by Joseph Murphy, The Power of your Subconscious Mind, and Other Works and I did not complete it because I found it too simple to be true. I was living life in the daily grind and like everyone else, I was caught up in the false belief that nothing happened so simply and so easily by harnessing the power of the subconscious. Like many of us, I had unlearnt all the things I knew as a child, how quickly happiness came, the beauty of simple things, the ease in believing and receiving, the miracles that surrounded me in nature, the joy of living. I unlearnt the beauty of allowing myself to go to that place where I was able to connect the god within to Universal Source energy.

As with many of us, life happened, the daily grind made pulp of our wishes and dreams, our imaginations, our beliefs, our beingness, and ultimately our happiness. Then came the tiredness, the stress, the disillusionment, the unhappiness, and ultimately the sickness to our physical bodies.

For those with the vague memory of life as we knew it before it happened to us, we turn inward, searching for what once was. Well actually, the smart ones of us turn inward while the smart-arsed ones of us turn outward to worldly pleasures that provide only fleeting satisfaction and no lasting happiness.

Now we go Inward to the power of the subconscious mind, to soothe and heal, to reinvigorate our faith and trust in ourselves and our reason for being here, to restore our happy place that never left but was just buried under the rubble of the happened life.
