  • Émile Coué and His Method (I): the Chemist of Thought and Human Action 1
    Émile Coué and his Method (I): The Chemist of Thought and Human Action 1 Émile Coué and his Method (I): The Chemist of Thought and Human Action Lindsay B. Yeates, PhD School of Humanities & Languages, University of New South Wales, Sydney, NSW Australia Australian Journal of Clinical Hypnotherapy & Hypnosis, Volume 38, No.1, (Autumn 2016), pp.3-27. Abstract The talented scientist, structured thinker, and successful apothecary, Émile Coué (1857-1926), transformed what he had learned of suggestion in the 1880s and scientific hypnotism in the 1900s into the Coué method of the 1920s. His method was an ordered sequence of rational, systematic, intricately constructed, subject-centred hypnotherapeutic interactions that stressed the significance of both unconscious and conscious autosuggestion, delivered a collection of well-polished common-sense explanations, a persuasive set of experiential exercises, a powerfully efficacious hypnotism-centred ego-strengthening intervention and, finally, detailed instruction in the specific ritual through which his empirically determined formula “Every day, in every way, I’m getting better and better” was to be self-administered twice daily. This paper examines Coué’s work, the history and evolution of his method, the phenomenon of its wide-ranging impact during the 1920s in Europe, Britain, and the USA, and reflects upon aspects of its long-term influence on the domain of hypnotherapy and hypnotic suggestion. KEY WORDS: autosuggestion, conscious autosuggestion, ego-strengthening, hypnotherapy, hypnotic suggestion, self-hypnosis NOTE to the Reader A small number of textual errors and omissions in the final published version of this paper have been corrected. Otherwise, the original paper’s content remains unchanged.

  • Dissociative Tendencies and Individual Differences in High Hypnotic Suggestibility
    COGNITIVE NEUROPSYCHIATRY 2011, 16 (2), 113Á135 Dissociative tendencies and individual differences in high hypnotic suggestibility Devin Blair Terhune, Etzel Carden˜a, and Magnus Lindgren Department of Psychology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden Introduction. Inconsistencies in the relationship between dissociation and hypnosis may result from heterogeneity among highly suggestible individuals, in particular the existence of distinct highly suggestible subtypes that are of relevance to models of psychopathology and the consequences of trauma. This study contrasted highly suggestible subtypes high or low in dissociation on measures of hypnotic responding, cognitive functioning, and psychopathology. Methods. Twenty-one low suggestible (LS), 19 low dissociative highly suggestible (LDHS), and 11 high dissociative highly suggestible (HDHS) participants were administered hypnotic suggestibility scales and completed measures of free recall, working memory capacity, imagery, fantasy-proneness, psychopathology, and exposure to stressful life events. Results. HDHS participants were more responsive to positive and negative hallucination suggestions and experienced greater involuntariness during hypnotic responding. They also exhibited impaired working memory capacity, elevated pathological fantasy and dissociative symptomatology, and a greater incidence of exposure to stressful life events. In contrast, LDHS participants displayed superior object visual imagery. Conclusions. These results provide further evidence for two highly suggestible subtypes:

  • Suggestion and Autosuggestion
    SUGGESTION AND AUTOSUGGESTION A Psychological and Pedagogical Study Based upon the Investigations Made by the New Nancy School By - CHARLES BAUDOUIN Professor at the Jean Jacques Rousseau Institute and Occasional Professor at the University of Geneva Author of "Culture de la Force Morale," "Symbolisme ct Psychoanalyse," etc., etc. Translated from the French by EDEN and CEDAR PAUL NEW YORK DODD, MEAD AND COMPANY 1921 Copyright, 1921 By DODD, MEAD AND COMPANY, Imo. Dedicated with grateful acknowledgments to EMILE COUE the steadfast Worker and Pioneer TRANSLATORS' PREFACE The dissociation of hypnotism, from mysticism and super stition was efficiently begun by two investigators, Alex andre Bertrand and James Braid. Bertrand (Traite du somnambtdisme, Paris, 1823 ; Du magnetisme animal en France, Paris, 1826) insisted especially upon the psychological determinants of the phenomena in ques tion. He maintained that what we now call the hypnotic state was brought about through the influence of the imagination of the patients acting upon themselves. Herein we have the germ of Cone's theory of autosug gestion as expounded in the following pages. Braid, on the other hand (various writings, from 1841 to his death in 1860), inclined at the outset rather to the physi ological explanation of what he was the first to term "hypnotism." It is interesting to note that Braid was a pioneer in the therapeutic use of reflective autosugges tion. He describes his own sufferings, in September, 1844, from a severe attack of muscular rheumatism, which had made it impossible for him to sleep for three successive nights. He then hypnotized himself in the presence of two friends.

She’s having her two tiny parathyroid glands removed. But for this operation, Fresquez is awake. Cradling her head with two hands and stroking her forehead is Fabienne Roelants, an anesthesiologist who is using hypnosis to get Fresquez through the procedure. “I’m inviting you to fix upon somewhere, not to take your eyes off it,” Roelants says in a French- accented voice. “Now you can close your eyes, to be more relaxed and more comfortable.” Fresquez closes her eyes. “Now you are at a day in November,” Roelants continues. “It’s a Thanksgiving dinner at home. I’m inviting you to observe your friends, your husband. The lights are low, and small candles are flickering in the windowsill.” As Roelants talks, Fresquez grows totally still and her eyes close. A surgeon inserts a long needle into her neck to numb just the area near her parathyroid glands and then cuts a one-inch hole in her throat area to remove two glands, each the size of a grain of rice. 1 When it’s over Fresquez says she felt “relief and joy that the hypnosis worked, that I went through surgery without general anesthesia.

No terminal punctuation is to be used. ABSTRACT Title of Document: ONE MAN TRANCE Brandon Waylan Ables, M.F.A., 2020 Directed By: Kathy O’Dell, Associate Professor Department of Visual Arts Where we humans spend most of our time becomes representative of our subconscious. Our everyday movements and mannerisms are recorded in our environments. Your self becomes the space. Your rooms become your existing knowledge base. Writing on or creating in those environments can allow you to alter your self. In the multimedia installation One Man Trance, I use my everyday environments and actions to create, replay, and edit ideas – a new form of self- hypnosis for keeping my subconscious constantly engaged in a loop with my conscious output. The installation is structured around the four rooms where I spend most of my time: bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and exercise room. The actions I carry out most often in each of these rooms respectively – watch TV, stand in front of the mirror, stare into the pantry, use the exercise bike – are all turned into actions that are used to trigger visuals of my handwritten notes, typed text as well as audio recordings of hypnotic scripts (and vice versa). I am combining habitual actions in these familiar spaces with the ability to self-review and self-renew.
