How to Practice Suggestion and Autosuggestion : 9781578988976

2010 Reprint of 1923 First Edition. Illustrated. Although commonly known to the layman as a technique that can affect the physical world, bring wealth, and even add to one's IQ, autosuggestion is actually a technique intended to complement the use of medicine. It was developed by apothecary Emile Cou? from the late 1800's to the early 1900's. In 1932, German psychiatrist Johannes Schultz developed and published autogenic training, a relaxation technique influenced by the Cou? method. The Cou? method centers on a routine repetition of a particular expression according to a specified ritual in a given physical state at the beginning and at the end of each day. Against the belief that a strong conscious will constitutes the best path to success, Cou? maintained that curing some of our troubles requires a change in our subconscious/unconscious thought, which can only be achieved by using our imagination. Although stressing that he was not primarily a healer but one who taught others to heal themselves, Cou? claimed to have effected organic changes through autosuggestion.
