What if an invisible force—far more powerful than your everyday, conscious thoughts—has been quietly shaping your relationships, your finances, your health, and the circumstances you keep repeating?

That force is your subconscious mind.

This article is a reader-friendly breakdown of ideas often associated with Joseph Murphy’s work, including his book How to Use the Laws of the Mind. It’s also inspired by a YouTube audiobook-style video presenting these principles.

These aren’t presented as “fluffy manifestation.” They’re framed as psychological and spiritual laws—patterns of mind and belief that, when practiced consistently, shape what you experience.


Who Was Joseph Murphy?

Joseph Murphy is widely known for teaching practical, faith-forward mind principles: how beliefs impress the subconscious, and how inner patterns tend to reproduce themselves as outer conditions.

The heart of the message is simple:

When you learn to work with your subconscious—rather than against it—you begin to change what your life can produce.


The 7 Foundational Laws

1) The Law of Belief

Your dominant beliefs—especially the ones charged with emotion—tend to become your lived reality.

Belief isn’t just an opinion. It’s a kind of inner instruction.

Practice:
Ask: What do I truly believe is possible for me? Then begin feeding your mind a new belief with repetition + feeling.


2) The Law of Mental Equivalence

Your outer world tends to mirror your inner world: as within, so without.

If your inner “mental picture” of love is instability, you may keep recreating instability. If your inner picture of money is fear, you may keep recreating fear.

Example (from the teaching):
A person may be intelligent and hardworking—yet repeatedly fail—because the inner picture they carry is still “failure.” When they build a new inner picture (thriving, capable, supported), the results change.

Practice (10–15 minutes daily):

  • Build a vivid inner scene of what you want as if it’s already real.
  • See it through your own eyes.
  • Add emotion (relief, gratitude, peace).
  • Repeat until it feels familiar.

3) The Law of Substitution

Don’t wrestle negative thoughts. Replace them.

The mind tends to lock onto what you resist. Substitution uses a different mechanism: swap the thought before it becomes a spiral.

Practice:
When you catch a destructive loop, use a quick interrupt like:

  • “Cancel. Clear.”

Then immediately replace it with the thought you want to train:

  • “I’m so tired” → “I’m being replenished with strength and vitality.”
  • “I’m broke” → “I’m open to creative supply and steady improvement.”
  • “Nobody likes me” → “I attract supportive, healthy connections.”

Do it gently, consistently—without self-judgment.


4) The Law of Relaxation

Strain creates resistance. Relaxation creates receptivity.

There’s a reason answers often appear when you stop forcing them: when the conscious mind loosens its grip, the deeper mind can surface solutions.

Practice:

  • Visualize your desire clearly, then release the “how” and “when.”
  • Use relaxation daily (breath, quiet, meditation, stillness).
  • If you notice tension or impatience, pause and affirm something like:
    • “I relax and trust the process. What I need is unfolding.”

A helpful metaphor: plant the seed—then don’t dig it up every day to check whether it’s growing.


5) The Law of Subconscious Activity

Your subconscious doesn’t clock out. It keeps working—especially when you sleep.

Many people have experienced it: you go to bed with a problem and wake with clarity. That’s subconscious processing.

The Sleep Technique (a simple nightly practice):
Right before sleep, when you’re drowsy:

  1. State the desire as already resolved.
  2. Feel relief and gratitude.
  3. Let it go and fall asleep in that feeling.

Try it for 21 nights with one clear focus. Keep it simple. Let the deeper mind do the “heavy lifting.”


6) The Law of Practice

Repetition trains the subconscious.

Most people try a new inner practice once or twice, don’t see instant results, and quit. But subconscious change is closer to learning a skill than making a wish.

Practice: the 40-day method
Pick one focus area (health, money, relationships, confidence). For 40 days:

  • 5–10 minutes daily of visualization + affirmation + feeling
  • no skipping
  • track it like brushing your teeth

This is where change becomes inevitable: not because of hype, but because your mind adapts to what you repeatedly impress upon it.


7) The Law of Forgiveness

Unforgiveness doesn’t punish the other person—it keeps you tied to the past.

Resentment can become an inner anchor. Forgiveness is not approval of harm; it’s release of the emotional chain.

A line from the story shared in the teaching says it well: forgiveness “didn’t excuse what happened—it freed me from carrying it as a burden.”

Practice (morning + evening):
Speak slowly, with feeling:

  • “I fully and freely forgive everyone who has ever hurt me.”
  • “I ask forgiveness of anyone I have hurt.”
  • “I release grudges and resentments.”
  • “I am free, and I set everyone free.”

And don’t skip the most overlooked step: forgive yourself. Self-forgiveness gives your subconscious permission to build something new.


A Quick Recap

  • Belief: what you accept as true becomes your pattern
  • Mental equivalence: inner pictures shape outer experience
  • Substitution: replace the thought, don’t wrestle it
  • Relaxation: release strain; allow flow
  • Subconscious activity: your deeper mind works nonstop
  • Practice: repetition installs the program
  • Forgiveness: release the past to free the future

The Real Question: What Will You Practice?

“Inspiration without application is just entertainment.”

So here’s a simple invitation:

Choose one law that resonated most. Commit to it for 40 days. Write it down. Make it real. Keep it gentle—but consistent.

When you change the inner pattern, the outer life has room to change too.

You are more powerful than you know. Your mind is more creative than you can imagine. And your best days, your best life is waiting on the other side of these practices. Now go out there and claim it. I’ll see you in 28:45 the next video
