Hey dear community, first of all I would like to welcome you all on my new contribution and hope you had a day full of interesting experiences! In this article, I would like to address the subconscious and hope you are able to learn new things.
Most daily actions are controlled by the subconscious and so it also behaves with things that are perceived by our senses and if you feel or smell something, for example, this is processed and stored in the subconscious without being actively noticed. Most of the time, certain experiences that were made in the past are linked to the senses and if you have made a great experience in which a certain color or smell was recognizable, people think back to these things again and it is similar with negative experiences that you have experienced in the past and because these are linked to the senses, it comes to the fact that certain triggers are created which are often difficult to recognize and can last a life. Every time people perceive certain stimuli again, it happens that these experiences are triggered together with the memories that you had at that time and it comes to the fact that the whole body is affected by it and put in a kind of stress state and it leads to a disturbance of perception. This also has the consequence that there can be an influence on the other body functions and the resulting sensory disturbances are also not uncommon and there are also reactions such as unconsciously avoiding the places where these experiences have been made and this can also be considered as a kind of protective mechanism. Even certain overloads of stimuli which are due to the fact that the senses are heavily burdened, are stored deep in the subconscious and influence the memory and people are constantly surrounded by senses that influence them more than they would think and even when you sleep, the brain perceives senses like passing cars and stores them.
Certain impressions of the senses are not only linked to experiences but also define the importance of events and on the basis of certain sensory impressions, the brain knows how important some things are and where to classify them and this must always be considered individually and is linked to different experience. Even if people do not consciously notice it when they made certain experiences because the consciousness usually concentrates only on certain things that were present at that time, the whole unconscious perception is a lot more pronounced and this leads to numerous different links which are strongly imprinted and also shape the future behavior. In some areas, this topic is specifically used and an example is marketing where certain smells are used which are considered particularly beneficial by the brain and this has the consequence that the customer remembers the product better through these smells and the willingness to buy is increased and also with other senses, people make targeted use of it and so it is also worked specifically with colors or other things that influence the senses. Not to be neglected are all the subliminal things that often have an influence on the senses such as very quiet sounds such as the noise of the heater or other things and if you pay close attention to the environment and are concentrated for a few minutes, you will quickly notice that you are constantly surrounded by things that influence the senses and all these things are also associated with the memory.
Many thanks for stopping and I hope you could learn something new about the subconscious! I captured these pictures with my Camera Sony Alpha 6000 plus 55-210 mm lens.
