Emile Coué (French Émile Coué, February 26, 1857, Troyes - July 2, 1926, Nancy) was a French psychologist and pharmacist who developed a method of psychotherapy and personal growth based on self-hypnosis.
This method is based on a mantra-like regular repetition of simple phrases - such as, for example, this: “Every day I am getting better and better in every way.” Regularity of classes is an important condition treatment. Contrary to the popular belief that a strong will forms the fastest path to health, Coue believed that the solution to some problems is impossible without changing unconscious thoughts. Coue emphasized that he is not a healer, but one who teaches others to heal themselves.
Born into a poor but noble family of Breton origin. Received a degree in pharmacology in 1876.
After completing his studies in Paris, he opened a medical practice in Troyes, during which he discovered that the effectiveness of treatment is significantly influenced by the patient’s conviction in the healing properties of the medicine offered to him.
Coue believed that the main cause of any disease was the human imagination. Therefore, for recovery, he recommended daily repetition of formulas aimed at improving health. Coue argued that everyone who inspires himself: “I will achieve!” will definitely achieve. This and other formulas he proposed promoted the patient’s active participation in the psychotherapeutic process, although, of course, they could not completely replace medications.
Working as an apothecary in Troyes from 1882 to 1910, Coue quickly discovered what later became known as the placebo effect.
Coue noticed an increase in the effectiveness of the drug when its effectiveness was emphasized in the eyes of the patient. Such patients recovered much faster than those to whom he did not tell anything about the properties of the medicine. Thus began Coue's research into hypnosis and the power of imagination.
The first treatment method used by Coue was based on hypnosis. He discovered that a person could not be hypnotized against their will, and, more importantly, the effects of hypnosis diminished when the person returned to consciousness.
In 1910, he moved to Nancy and opened a psychotherapy clinic there, which he ran until his death.
In his work, he was guided by the views of I. Bernheim and P. Levy on the essence of suggestion.
He considered health disorders as a consequence of autosuggestion and incorrect imagination: this determines the features of his group passive-suggestive method, when patients are introduced into a hypnotic state in which they turn to each other with the words: “Day by day I am getting better and better.”
This method was heavily criticized by specialists, but was very popular among practitioners.
Influenced I.G. Schultz, creator of the autogenic training method.
Every day for 10 minutes, close your eyes, inspire yourself with positive, constructive thoughts.
Tell yourself:
“Every cell of my body is healed, cleansed and reborn.
The blood flows easily and freely, it is clean, fresh, healthy.
My blood vessels are elastic, young, clean, healthy.
The brain functions perfectly.
All organs are in excellent condition and function normally, they are healthy, clean, fresh.
Every day I become healthier, younger, stronger.
I'm getting better and better every day."
If you believe in these words and say them sincerely (and this may not happen right away, but you will definitely succeed), then the result will not be long in coming.
No wonder the Bible says that “in the beginning was the Word.”
The word is truly the beginning of all beginnings.
What are our words and thoughts - such are we ourselves.
There is a law of health:
"I feel the way I think I feel about myself."
Learn to do everything you do with pleasure. When eating and eating food, think not about how healthy it is and how you need it to get enough, but only about the fact that you are doing it for your own pleasure. When we try to enjoy food, we automatically begin to eat food correctly, that is, chew it properly, slowly, for a long time, without rushing. When doing physical exercise, also think only about your own pleasure. There is no need to overload yourself, force yourself to train when you can’t do it. Remember: only what is done with pleasure is useful. Everything else is harmful.
Think more often about what you can do to please yourself. But beware of false joys. Sometimes a person thinks that by overeating, he thus pleases himself. But this is self-deception. After all, after such “joy” it usually becomes not joyful at all and very bad for both body and soul. Remember:
True joy is that joy that, even as it passes, leaves behind a pleasant memory and a good, joyful feeling. Stick to such joys and choose for yourself only those pleasures that do not later turn into a bad side - mental and physical torment. And then all life will gradually become joy.
Learn to see people around you who are even worse off than you are now. Learn to sympathize with them and instill in them faith and optimism. But don't humiliate them with pity. By feeling sorry for a person, you only strengthen him in his plight. It’s better to believe in him, that he will have the strength to get out of his misfortunes and illnesses. Learn to help such people to the best of your ability, but not to the detriment of yourself and your interests. When you help others without hurting yourself, you are also helping yourself.
Learn to behave as if everything is fine with you - no matter how things really are with you, what your health really is. What we think about ourselves is what we become - don't forget that! But don’t turn your behavior into window dressing, when you want to demonstrate to other people that everything is fine with you. Do this not for others, but for yourself, even alone. When we hold our heads high and tell ourselves that we are doing well, we attract well-being into our lives with our positive thoughts.
Never tell yourself: “I can’t” - no matter what it concerns: recovery, work, exercise. Better say: “I don’t want to.” By saying “I can’t” we greatly limit our own capabilities. And very often behind these words we hide not our own inability to do this, but only our own reluctance and self-doubt. If it seems to you that something is beyond your strength, try not to think too much about whether you can do it or not, but rather try to start doing it without thinking. You will be surprised to discover that you can actually do a lot - much more than you thought. Do it, don’t say “I can’t”! And you will see what you can! By saying “I can’t,” we thus set a limit, a ceiling above which we cannot rise. And human possibilities are practically limitless. Just don't limit yourself. By starting to do “I can - I can’t” without thinking, we become stronger in spirit and body, as we expand our capabilities, master new horizons for ourselves, which makes us believe in ourselves and treat ourselves with respect.
Remember that neither success, nor defeat, nor illness, nor health arise from anywhere, they do not appear on their own. Man is created from what he did and what he thought about in the past. This is what our present is made of. And now, in the present, we are laying the seeds of our future. Everything that a person thinks, what he believes in, what he does now - all of this will form the future.
Whether you are healthy or not is the result of what you have done in the past. Whether you will be strong or weak in the future depends on what you believe, what you think and how you act in the present. The Health System is needed in order to change your present in the most favorable direction - change your thoughts, actions, actions, faith. By changing our present in a favorable direction with the help of the Health System, we lay down a healthy and happy future.
Just as water changes its shape in accordance with the vessel into which it falls, so all the molecules from which the cells of our body are created change their state according to our thoughts, our actions and our faith. If thoughts and actions are filled with optimism and faith, then the cells change their state towards health, harmony, compliance with the Laws of Nature, and the Healing Powers of the body begin to work at full power.
You must believe that you will certainly get better, that you will recover, that the strength of your spirit will be able to withstand all adversity. Where there is faith, there is, as a rule, the Truth. There's Health. There is true power and immortality of the spirit. There happiness is in unity with the beautiful, majestic and omnipotent Nature. Live in accordance with the Laws of Nature - and you will become omnipotent and beautiful, like Nature itself...
What needs to happen will happen. You gain strength when you stop yelling and complaining and start smiling and appreciating your life. There are blessings hidden in every struggle you face, but you must be willing to open your heart and mind to see them. You can't make things happen. You can only try. At a certain point, you have to let go and allow what is meant to happen. Love your life, trust your intuition, take risks, lose and find happiness, learn through experience. This - long trip. You must stop worrying, questioning and doubting at any moment. Laugh, enjoy every moment of your life. You may not know exactly where you intended to go, but you will eventually arrive where you are supposed to be.
PEOPLE!!!... Keep moving life! Don't be afraid to get angry. Don't be afraid to love again. Don't let the cracks in your heart turn into scars. Understand that strength increases every day. Understand that courage is beautiful. Find in your heart what makes others smile. Remember that you don't need many people in your life, so don't strive to have more "friends." Be strong when things get tough. Remember that the universe always does what is right. Admit when you are wrong and learn from it. Always look back, see what you have achieved and be proud of yourself. Don't change for anyone if you don't want to. Do more. Live more simply. And never stop moving.

The small provincial French town of Nancy, 1890. A friendly, helpful 32-year-old pharmacist communicates daily with dozens of citizens who come to his pharmacy for help. Emile Coue knows each client, his life story and the course of his illness. This helps him understand why the same medicine affects people so differently. The positive effect is somehow connected with the power of imagination of patients, Coue understands and begins to study the method of treatment using suggestion, developed in the mid-19th century by French doctors Ambroise-Auguste Liebault and Ippolit Bernheim. Later, while practicing hypnotherapy, he notices that hypnosis does not have a therapeutic effect even on an easily suggestible person if the patient remains indifferent to what is happening to him (that is, does not use self-hypnosis). Coue suggested that self-directed suggestion is a universal and very effective method influence on the psyche, on the unconscious of a person.
He confirmed his brilliant guess in an unexpected way. Emile Coue began offering clients a new painkiller, which was produced only in his pharmacy. But, taking it, it was necessary to pronounce (without thinking, easily) a simple phrase: “Every day I feel better...” The effect of treatment with “Que tablets” was amazing - patients stopped feeling pain, although they were actually taking glucose tablets. So the pharmacist accidentally discovered what was later called the “placebo effect.” He was able to prove the real power of self-hypnosis: a person was healed by the confidence that he would definitely get better.
Books by Emile Coue
For almost 15 years, Emile Coue developed a method that he called “conscious self-hypnosis.” Thanks to him, thousands of people were able to change the quality of their lives: self-hypnosis did not replace treatment with a doctor, but significantly reduced suffering. “Every day I am getting better in all respects” - this phrase should be pronounced easily, like a child, without the slightest effort, wrote Coue. - It's better to repeat it in an even tone, without expression. Gradually, this suggestion will become part of your unconscious and will begin to influence you, your actions, actions, sensations” (see “About this”). We need to repeat this phrase (or any other positive attitude) at the moment when we are in a dream state of consciousness (between reality and sleep - in the evening, falling asleep, or in the morning, waking up), then our unconscious is most receptive to information, we tune in to the positive okay
Coue's discovery was so stunningly simple and effective that it was recognized and is still used by doctors and psychotherapists different countries. In Russia, the idea of self-hypnosis therapy was developed by neurologist and psychiatrist Vladimir Bekhterev.
And Emile Coue, until his death in 1926, gave lectures all over the world, repeating: “I am not a miracle worker or a healer, I only show people that they can help themselves.”
Here is one simple example that can allow us to understand exactly how the Emile Coue method works.
Situation: I have to speak in front of a large audience, but I'm afraid I won't be able to cope with my excitement.
Preliminary (external) suggestion(some of us, Coue believed, need outside support): I call a friend (we've been working together for several years), and he assures me that I always manage to pull myself together at the right time.
Grade: I think about the situation and tell myself: yes, I can cope with anxiety.
Conscious self-suggestion: calmly, without thinking, without any effort, I repeat: “I can cope with myself, I don’t have to worry.”
Connecting the unconscious: every day (before the performance) before going to bed and waking up, I repeat a clearly formulated positive attitude: “I can cope with myself and be calm.”
Visualization: several times a day I mentally imagine (imagine) myself entering the classroom, confidently greeting the audience and uttering my first words...
Result: On the appointed day, I go to the meeting feeling calm and confident.
Every day I get better and better in every way
Determine what you want most in life and how you intend to achieve it, and then do not allow anything to distract you from this intention.

Hello, Lyudmila-Stefania!
Angela is writing to you. I'm 29 years old, my problem is that I still can't find myself, my place in life. Jobs have to change constantly. When I feel that this is not my thing, and the situation at work immediately worsens, I leave. And now I work in a private enterprise, I have a very responsible and difficult job, both physically and mentally. The situation at the enterprise is very difficult; we are constantly loaded with a large amount of work. The volume of work increases, but the salary remains the same. You have to work on your days off and stay after your shift, but there is no pay for this. I want to leave, but I don’t know where yet. My heart tells me that I should still have some kind of creative profession. After all, I was engaged in creative work in the summer, my soul rejoiced and I felt some kind of energy and strength. I beg you, Lyudmila-Stefania, please help me understand this issue: where should I better direct my energy and attention, which area of activity should I give preference. I really want to find something that will help me reveal my abilities and talents. After all, every person is talented in something. It’s just that not everyone was able to manifest them in life and apply them for the benefit of the people around them and themselves. I really want to find for myself what is truly mine. To go to work with pleasure, so that all the abilities that are inherent in me can be revealed 100%. And I would really like to benefit people and myself. You know, I sometimes have the feeling that I’m not living my life, I’m not doing what I need to do, as if my life is wasted. I would really like to change my life, to change myself. I know that I will succeed, and I believe that I can change a lot in my life. But please help me figure out my profession. I don’t want to make mistakes again and choose what I don’t need. I hope my letter will not be ignored.
Best regards, Angela
A person is free in his choice. He himself takes on certain obligations to his life, himself and the world around him. If you are not used to making decisions for yourself about what and how it should be in your life, and you don’t know what you want to get, then who should know? Others, when deciding any issues for you, will take into account only their own interests; no one will take your desires into account. Therefore, isn’t it better to take responsibility for your life, for the process of events taking place, under personal control? And become the Master of your life, and not an outside observer, learn to make the choices you personally need and make decisions yourself, because you, and only you, should know what is necessary for you to become a truly happy person. You can listen professional advice, but after weighing all the pros and cons, the decision must be made by the person himself.
So, you have decided to become a successful, prosperous person and begin to act. Create for yourself those events in life that you need, it is possible. A person has powerful forces, the power of his mind is so great that by combining it with purposefulness and determination, a person can reach any heights, become what and what he wants to become, and create the desired living conditions for his loved one. The main thing is to believe in yourself and your strengths and learn to do right choice. And choose not what someone wants you to choose, but what you want, what you yourself strive for. Be, don't exist. And always be in the place that you have chosen for yourself in life, and do not let anyone do it for you.
I want to be a conscientious and responsible person.
I take the best from life and give it the best.
At every new stage, life gives me luck and success.
By wanting to change yourself and the conditions of your life, paying attention to yourself, going about your business, you will eventually understand that your beliefs influence your perception of the world. If a person constantly thinks and talks about the negative, sees only the bad in life, in people, then the life of such a person will not be very sweet. Because he convinced himself that this world is terrible. But if a person changes his beliefs, events will begin to happen in his life that will help him understand that this world is magnificent, and his life will change for the better.
Many argue that a person is born with a certain life program. But we must not forget that every person has freedom of choice, a person decides for himself what kind of person he should be, which path he will take: to joy or sorrow. Living conditions will depend on this choice. A person is initially given the opportunity to change his destiny in one direction or another, and it depends on him whether he will live in harmony with this world and himself, or whether his life will be filled with problems, sorrows and obstacles.
There are exercises, techniques, practices that perfectly help to get rid of unnecessary things, understand the reasons and change the situation to a more favorable one. We'll talk about this a little later.
I can easily create for myself the level of material well-being that I desire.
I am worthy of wealth, I go towards it confidently and inexorably.
Money gives me freedom and the realization of all my plans!

A positive affirmation is a short phrase or sentence that, when repeated over time and regularly, will become your inner intention. The idea conveyed in the statement will reach your Subconscious Mind. It will affect your way of thinking, your behavior and ultimately help you live the life you have always wanted. This method is not a magic trick, and it will not change everything tonight. But the method really works. In short, this method will change your life... . This idea of positive affirmations is not just a theory: it is a documented psychological technique called autosuggestion and developed by the famous French psychologist Emile Coue. He healed many of his patients using just one simple statement that he invented: “Every day I am getting better and better in every way!” Some of his patients suffered from serious physical and mental illnesses but were cured by this simple phrase. This phrase is widely tested and is the most effective statement, even today. Just a simple phrase is all it takes! This simple phrase, invented by Emile Coue, can be considered a work of genius and yet, few of us have even heard of it, and even fewer of us have actually tried the phrase for ourselves. This phrase usually affects our lives in all directions, and each of us is surprised by its enormous effect. After several months of using this statement, you begin to notice how everything that happens becomes positive for you, how your attitude towards people, things, phenomena and events changes for the better, and many goals that seemed almost incredible just a few months ago, are now reality. Depending on the person and his/her environment It takes, on average, three weeks to several months to feel the effects of the affirmation.
The Coue affirmation is very effective for everything, but sometimes you may want to achieve something in a particular area of your life and you want it to happen quickly. Let's say you would like to buy new house and, if you use the Coue statement, it may take approximately one year for your new home to become a reality for you, because the Coue statement affects you in all directions, and it may take a long time before the full effect of the statement takes effect to your home situation. However, if you want to get a new home within a short period of a few months, for example, then you need to create a statement that addresses your situation directly. So, if you have something special in your life that you would like to address, it makes sense to use your own affirmation to achieve faster results. Coue's statement will work in any given situation as well, but you may have to wait longer for the result. If you don't have anything special that you would like to change in your life, or you don't need to change anything, really quickly, then it is better to use Coue's statement. This will attract the best to you and make your life better in every direction and ultimately satisfy all the specific and personal goals you have in mind. All of this is to say that if you decide to create your own statement, it is very important that you follow certain rules to make that statement effective.
An example of creating your own affirmation to achieve faster results for a single goal:
Let's say I conflict with Ivan Petrovich every day at work. And would like to eliminate this problem through positive confirmation. Here are some rules:
Rule *1: DETERMINE WHAT YOU WANT, NOT WHAT YOU DON'T WANT!
Do you know for sure that what you are ultimately trying to achieve is your absolute goal? It is important that you know exactly what you are trying to achieve, and not what you are trying to avoid. It is advisable to look “inside yourself” to understand your true goal. So, in the above example, I may not care specifically about Ivan Petrovich, but what I really want is peace of mind, or maybe I want to have a good relationship with a person, or maybe I want advance at work. Regardless of what your specific desire is, you need to focus specifically on your internal positive goal in your affirmation.
Rule #2: MAKE YOUR STATEMENT A LITTLE BROADER!
This is a common mistake that many people make when they create their own statement. As much as you want to improve a specific situation, as in this case, it is very important to keep your phrases as general as possible for the area of life you are trying to improve. In this case, instead of saying “I have a good relationship with a certain person,” you would say “I always have a good relationship with my colleagues,” or better yet, “I always have a good relationship with other people.”
Rule #3: MAKE YOUR STATEMENT CONFIDENT!
Instead of saying, “I never have bad relationships with other people,” it is helpful to add confidence to this statement: “I always have excellent relationships with other people.” Any phrase can and should be composed with a touch of confidence.
Rule #4: KEEP YOUR STATEMENTS SHORT!
It is advisable that the statement be no more than 2-4 lines long. If you can't express what you want in a sentence of no more than 4 lines, then it probably makes sense for you to go back to what you want and make your statement more general.
Rule *5: USE AN AFFIRMATION, ALWAYS, IN THE PRESENT TENSE!
If you apply a statement written in the future tense, then your Subconscious mind pushes your desire further into the future as you move towards this desire.
A statement written in the present tense is perceived by your Subconscious as a reality that already exists for you, and the Subconscious strengthens this reality
How does it work? Does affirmation always work?
Entering the information you need into a stable and active Subconscious Mind takes some time. How quickly do you begin to feel the effects of your affirmation? The result may depend on many factors, but the most significant factor is how true you think the statement is. However, even if you do not believe in the statement at all, it will still work, it will just take a little more time. The reason some people say their affirmations don't work is because these people never gave their affirmations a full chance to work, stopping after a few days or a few weeks of repeating the affirmation. But affirmation is not a magic trick, and you must give some time for the affirmation to be “absorbed” and reach your Subconscious Mind. This can take anywhere from three weeks to several months. So, why do we use this home page, and how is it more convenient and better than repeating your statement in your head or out loud?
And the answer to this simple Internet does this psychological technique easier to use, more convenient and more effective... Since the use of this technique requires a relatively long period of time, the traditional way of using affirmation involves a great deal of discipline and commitment in repeating the affirmation, which few people can endure for a long time. However, using this home page requires absolutely no discipline or stress at all. By having a home page with your statement, you see your statement every time you open your Internet. You don't have to think, you don't have to remember it, you don't even have to read your statement. You just need to see your statement and that is enough to make this statement work. Only by seeing your statement and knowing what is written there, your Subconscious Mind automatically begins to connect with its content. This fundamentally changes the entire process: instead of repeating the approval over weeks or months, you only need 2 minutes to install home page with your statement. We begin to transform your dreams into reality.
