Understanding the Unconscious: Creating the environment to study it

The unconscious, or our Back-End Processes, are quite adept at learning new skills. Choose a skill and observe what the unconscious does with it, however it tries to acquaint itself with it. Let go yourself, your mind-- the conscious self. I understand it is easier said than done. But recall all those joyous moments when you might have been have dancing by swaying your body from left to right in joy upon hearing some good news such as great exam results or your friends throwing you a surprise birthday party. The thing is to let your inhibitions dissolve. The continual whispers of "I shouldn't do this" or "I can't do this" are self-created. These are perceptible in your head in the form of voiceless voices but actually their true form is formless. Their true form is that a pervasive fear that can be sensed throughtout your body if you meditate, with eyes closed, upon each and every part of it. It's mostly noticeable in the form of stiff, unrelaxed muscles, mostly in and around the neck,shoulder and upper back region. That's why physical health is as important as mental. You don't need to exert yourself much to remain healthy physically. Just repetitions is what it requires. A healthy mind is the flower of which a healthy body is the root. I only propose this because to create an ideal environment to study yourself-- or anything for that matter-- fear needs to be get rid of. You, your mind, needs to understand through and through that there is no cause to panic or be in the mode of alarm and that being composed wouldn't cause you to miss out on anything. you need to realized that time passes and it's okay and losing time is not a matter and even if it is, then not a life-threatening one, at least not in the comfort of your home or the peacefulness of your own solitude. This I advocate for those suffering from pangs of anxiety and panic attacks frequently.
Fear is good because it helps you be cautious and it was what was required of our ancestors back when our species was mostly dependent on mostly foraging and hunting, You need to remember that our bodies and our beings are but nature's machines and nature keeps changing us through the process of evolution but some old behavorial patterns as of now still remain. This sounds pseudo-scientific, i know, But the point i am trying to drive home is that once you start treating your body and mind objectively, once you get passionate enough to change yourself, you'll mostly stop worrying about the quantity of personal progresss you can make and start focussing on getting it right, no matter how many times you might have to try, i.e. the quality.
Imagination is nothing but a tool, an ability we naturally possess. You can use it to relive your past mistakes and regrets and failures, and you can also use it to relive your past achievements, no matter how meagre, according to you, they might have been. so why choose the former rather than the latter?
Be proud of yourself! your pride is your lance and your humbleness is your shield. I am not telling you to become an arrogant, self centred egomaniac. No! Be humble. Sure! But do set up your own boundaries. Know when to put your foot down. And when you do, just do it, You certainly can explain it to others if they ask for it, but no need to go into the details of why you did so, unless you really do feel that you can to that person. And yes, not everybody, or not a lot are going to be "that person". Learn to balance your "yes"s and "no"s. With that as your aim, you'll keep on the path of setting up boudaries for yourself. Afterall, all experiments and studies require control boundaries.
