So this isn't directly related but is in a similar veind. There's a book I read called persuasion bt a Dr. Robert Calidni which is about demonstrating various types of subconscious tricks to get someone to be compliant. However one of the parts of the book I found interesting was he also noted that many of these tricks of persuasion would be made to disappear if the you brought someone's attention to the trigger. E.g people are less complaint when the weather outside is bad; however if you start by asking someone how the weather is the effect disappears. I take the whole book with a grain of salt since the whole of social psychology is full of tons of issues right now but it is interesting, especially when one considers the beneficial effects of meditation that have been observed when that is mostly about sitting and becoming aware of your body and your feelings.
