     From birth through age 7 a child downloads thought patterns and beliefs which are not their own, but those of their parents, teachers, religious leaders and society at large.  During these years children operate from a brain wave state of theta, which is an unconscious state.  This is a hypnotic state of being, where all thought patterns and beliefs are downloaded as they observe others, especially those they regularly interact with. 

     These paradigms set the stage for all interactions they have later in life; and by the time they are adults, they are unconsciously living their lives on default mode, which quite often, can be negative and limiting.  According to the National Science Foundation, an average person has about 12,000 to 60,000 thoughts per day and 90 to 95% of these thoughts are unconscious and repetitive.  Unfortunately, 80% of these repetitive thoughts are disempowering.  Yes, at least 90% of the time adults are running on an autopilot mode, where they unconsciously are rejuritating thoughts and behavior that does not create a life they desire.  

     Knowing this, we can make a decision to become more aware of this unconscious programming and begin to download thoughts and behavior that does serve us.  Knowing this we can redirect and thus reprogram our default mode of being to live a simpler and more joyful life.  Knowing this we can become more conscious of how we parent and guide our little ones early on, so their paradigms are loving and limitless.
