Say it The greater your faith though if you to repeat the proof you This general formula is the basis of the whole treatment. But Emile Coue also advocates the application of “particular suggestions'’—that 18, suggestions for the cure or amelior- ation of some particular complaint. “In order to formulate particu- lar suggestions,”” we are told, “go to a room where you will be free from interruption, sit down in a comfortable chair, close your ey: and let your muscles relax. H you were going to take a siesta. In doing so you allow the Uncon- us tide to ficient height to make your particul suggestions effective. Now call up the desired ideas through the medium of speech. Tell yourself that such and such ameliorations are going to occur. “Here are a few examples of special suggestions which may prove useful: “For deafness: Having closed the 's and relaxed body and mind, say to yourself something of-this nature: ‘From this day forth my hearing will gradually improve. Each day I shall hear a little better. Gradually this improvement will become more and more rapid, until in a comparatively short space of time, I shall hear quite well and I shall continue to do so until the end of my life.’ “A bad memory might be treated in some such terms as these: ‘My memory from to-day on will improve in every department. The impres- sions received will be clearer and more definite; I shall retain them au- tomatically and without any effort on my part, and when I wish to recall them they will immediately present themselves in their correct form to my mind. This improvement will be accomplished rapidly, and very soon my memory will be better than it has ever been before.” “Irritability and bad temper are very susceptible to autosuggestion and might be thus treated: ‘Hence- forth I shall daily grow more good- humored. Equanimity and cheerful- ness will become my normal states of mind, and in a short time all the lit- tle happenings of lite will be received in this spirit, I shall be a centre of cheer and helpfulness to those about me, infecting them with my own good humor, and this cheerful mood will become so habitual that nothing can rob me of it.’ “Asthma ts a disease which has alwa: baffled and still baffles the ordinary methods of medicine, It has shown itself, however, in Coue’s ex- perience, pre-eminently st.:ceptible to auto-suggestive treatment. Particular suggestions for its removal might take this form: ‘'From this day forward my breathing will become rapidly easter. Quite without my knowledge and without any effort on my part, my organism will do all that is necessary to restore perfect health to my lungs and bronchial passages. I shall be able to undergo any exertion without inconvenience. My breathing will be free, deep, delightful. I shall draw in all the pure health-giving air I need, and thus my whole system will be invigorated and strengthened. Moreover, I shall sleep calmly and peacefully, with the maximum of re- freshment and repose, so that I awake cheerful and looking forward with pleasure to the day's tasks ‘This process has this day begun and ia a short time I shall be wholly, and per manently restored to health,’ ’* Even so violent an affliction as fits may be treated by autosuggestion, es follows: “Particular suggestions should be aimed first of all at securing due fore warning of the approaching attack. pf his Deafness, Asthma, Fits, Nery Bad Temper, Each Viave Cura. tive Formulas For You to Say Over and Over. We should employ such terms as these: ‘In future I shall always know well in advance when a fit ts coming on. I shall bo amply warned of its approach. When these warnings occur I shall feel no fear or anxiety I shall be quite confident of my power to avert 1." As soon as the. warning comes—as it will come, quite unmis. takably—the sufferer should Isolate + himself and use a particular sugges- tion to prevent the fit from develop- ing. He should first suggest calm and self-control, then affirm re peatedly, but of course without ef fort, that the normal state of health is reasserting itself, that the mind ts fully under control, and that nothing can disturb its balance."’ Finally, here is the way in which, according to Coue, a sufferer may banish pain: If you are suffering from any such as toothache or it down, close your! eye ure yourself calmly that you are going to get rid of it. Now gently stroke with your hand the affected part and re- peat at the samo time as fast as you can, producing a continuo: stream of sound, the words: ‘Its going, going, going, gone!’ Keep it up for about a minute, paus- ing only to take a deep breath when necessary, and using the word ‘gone’ only at the conclu- sion of the whole proceedings. At time the pain will either hav irely ceased or at least sensibly abated. If the pain it that it will not return. only dimin ished, suggest that it will short ly pass away altogether. Now return to whatever employment you were engaged in when the pain began. Let other interests occupy your attention. If in rea- sonable space, say half an hour, the pain still troubles you, isolate yourself again; suggest once more that you are going to mas- ter and repeat the procedure. “It ig no exaggeration to say that by this process any pain can be con- quered. Do not be discouraged; at- tack it firmly and you are bound to [ HADIT INMY INSIDE VEST POCKET WITH MY COAT <— BUTTONED ONE DAY LAST SUNNER A CROOK TOOK NY B.V.D?s WITHOUT REMOVING MY CLOTHE.
