The reticular activating system is the brains filter and gives us some science-based evidence why visualization meditation work. If you are rolling your eyes at the phrase visualization mediation that this is for you. Listen Today!
The Reticular Activating System (RAS) is a bundle of nerves at our brainstem that filters out unnecessary information so the important things get through. It consists of a network of neurons in the central portion or core of the brainstem from the medulla through the pons and midbrain and into the diencephalon
We canโt possibly take in the full amount of stimulus from all 5 of our senses and our subconscious thoughts all at one time. Our brains caches data and creates muscle memory to focus even when we arenโt always aware.
This explains why we can drive a car without thinking about it after some experience. If we hear about a book or learn a new word we suddenly start hearing and seeing it everywhereโฆIt was always there; our RAS just didnโt filter it in.
Itโs why we can tune out a crowd full of talking people in a room, yet immediately snap to attention when someone says your name or something that sounds like itโฆ RAS
Visualization Meditation allows us to program the filter of our RAS. Our Brains canโt tell the difference between a real or imagined memory. If youโve suffered resentment or procrastination than you can relate. Both are living the perceived wreckage of the future or the past over and over but in present day. We feel it as if it were happening today.
Listen in to todays Monday Mindset to hear a visualizing method to help program our RAS that takes all of 30 second. Repetition > Duration.
What do I want my future self to sound like, look like, feel likeโฆ
Imaging yourself in that movie screen of our awareness - what am I wearing, hearing, seeingโฆ what emotions do I feelโฆwho else it thereโฆ Play the stories out โฆ
What actions can I take today that is in alignment with the person I want my future self to be?
