The 10:10 experiment: unleash the power of your subconscious!

Image streaming is a technique whereby you close your eyes, and ask your subconscious mind to show you something - typically the solution to a problem - and then you wait and see what images come to you. However, its important that you do one of two things:

1. Do image streaming with a partner, who will sit and listen while you describe the images your seeing,

or....

2. Describe what your seeing into a tape recorder.

The important thing is that you start to describe what your seeing, because this keeps you focused, and will actually increase the quality and strength of the images.

The technique is basically an ancient one. For example, the ancient Greeks used a similar approach in their teaching methods. They believed that the purpose of education was actually to draw out knowledge that was already within the minds of the students. Therefore the teacher would constantly question his students, getting them to reveal what was locked away in their subconscious minds. And the ancient Greeks were an extremely creative and innovative culture. With a comparatively tiny population they basically invented most of the basis of Western civilisation!

So, by questionning your own mind you will be astonished at how much you already know!

This modern version of the technique has been developed by a guy called Win Wenger, who calls it Image Streaming, and wrote a great book on it called 'The Einstein Factor'. Win recommends that to get started on the technique you should do what he calls the 10:10 challenge: spend 10 minutes per day practicing it for 10 days.

So for the next ten days (starting tomorrow) I'm going to be going exactly that, and writing about my experiences here on this blog. I also invite you to try the 10:10 challenge with me. I'm sure you can spare just 10 minutes a day for the next 10 days? And who knows what amazing things you might discover!
