The Coue Method

The pendulum of medical thought is swinging away from materialism. The day of the predominance of the pill is past. Practitioners of all schools now realize that a very large part of our weal and woe is the result of our thinking. Probably ninety per cent. of all EURES have a mental basis independent of the apparent material means employed. This is no argument against the physician or healer of any school, but it is an argument in Favor of scientific understanding and employment of mental means for human betterment.Emile Coué stands out as leader of the great and ever-increasing host of those who believe that mind is the principal factor in health and sickness. He tells us that in every case the material element has its place, but that this place is one of subservience; that matter is servant, mind is master; and that matter will obey the direction of mind, if the thing aimed at "is in any way possible" This implies that there may be instances in which the desired thing "is not in any way. Possible", but Coué does not undertake to define the latter class. After reading of the many cures induced by his "method", one cannot avoid the conclusion that further development and application of the "method" will greatly reduce the field now regarded as "the impossible".Coué is scientific. He does not start with a theory and then try to prove it by logic; but he begins with "experiments" and builds up his theory inductively. He takes you to a clinic where things are being done, not to a lecture room where things are being discussed.He recognizes the fact that people, not thoroughly acquainted with his "method" may find in it much that "seems childish"; but his answer is, "it produces results" One feels like paraphrasing the words of another: "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".Coué 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.The unique contributions which Coué has made to human betterment are, his recognition of the primary place of the imagination in the ere of disease, and his development of a "method" whereby the imagination may be energized and directed for its beneficent work.Our mentality is of two sorts, that which we use consciously and that which we use unconsciously or subconsciously. Coué agrees with many others in recThe pendulum of medical thought is swinging away from materialism. The day of the predominance of the pill is past.
