However, it can only deal with a certain number of things at one time because it can be easily overloaded. The subconscious is a layer that works on ‘auto pilot’, reacting to the principle of avoiding pain, obtaining pleasure and managing survival, regardless of external circumstances. It is concerned with emotion, imagination and memories, as well as our nervous system that controls internal organs automatically.
