Unconscious Mind

The part of the mind that operates outside of conscious awareness and is responsible for the vast majority of mental processing, including the regulation of bodily functions, the storage and retrieval of memories, the generation of emotions, and the execution of habitual behaviors. In NLP and Time Line Therapy®, the unconscious mind is treated as a powerful ally — it holds all of a person's resources, stores the timeline, and responds to symbolic communication, metaphor, and suggestion. Change work in NLP is primarily directed at the unconscious level.
