awareness?

What my little experiment with the glove (how silly it looked), made me think about was awareness. Feldenkrais stuff is focused on conscious awareness, paying attention, yet my question is, if we can change (negatively) our bodies by bad habits without being aware that we are doing it, then surely, we can alter them in a positive way too, without always this focused "awareness". Is not that a variation on the idea of reversibility?
When I wore the glove(see previous post), without paying attention to it, my subconscious, lower level functions surely did, because changes kept jumping into my awareness, when I was totally focused on other activities and had forgotten all about the glove. Maybe positive changes can be made with differences to the body's sensations/movements, without always the need for "awareness". We all have picked up habits subconsciously (such as a friends favorite word, a way of sitting in the car), so why not pick up beneficial habits subconsciously too? I still think awareness is king, don't get me wrong, but we underestimate the power of the subconscious, or the "just underneath the surface" thought. Why, just ask any psychiatrist or psychologist! Back to practicing movement experiments without the glove for a while, but I am more open to the idea of improvement not having to be such a time consuming hard slog....there is gold to be found in plain old not concentrating variety.
