I agree in terms of tackling the root of the issue and think that, aside from using technology like DNB to help, we have to examine how a life of conditioning has muddled our perception and understanding of the world/ourselves. I find that some of the Sufi material is good for pointing out this sort of thing (something like Idries Shah's Learning How to Learn). Granted, there might be an esoteric connotation (I would take caution in losing the substantive messages to an overly hocus pocus interpretation), but heavy emphasis is put on a very real and beneficial examination of our actions and the motivations and assumptions that are behind them. It is a delicate thing, I think; like you've implied, a brute force approach doesn't seem effective and would likely just be a counter-conditioning process, as opposed to a process of elucidation.
