Self Mastery Through Conscious Autosuggestion 

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. He recognizes the fact that people, not thoroughly acquainted with method, may find in it much that seems childish; but his answer is, it produces results. One feels like paraphrasing the words of an other: The lame walk, the ill are made whole, and happy are they who do not stumble at that which is seemingly too simple in my method.‘ Coue is in line with a considerable number of scholars who have studied and utilized hypnotism in its various phases, particularly related to disease. For many years is was supposed that hypnotism and kindred phenomena were abnormal, but we know now that these phenomena are perfectly natural, that they have been the greatest factors in all the ages for moral and physical health or disease, and that the modern psychologist is merely attempting to use consciously, for human good, that which had previously been a great uncontrolled power for both good and ill.
