# Self Mastery Through Conscious Autosuggestion/How to Practice Conscious Autosuggestion

Every morning before getting up and every evening as soon as you are in bed, shut your eyes, and repeat twenty times in succession, moving your lips (this is indispensable), and counting mechanically on a long string with twenty knots, the following phrase: "Day by day, in every way, I am getting better and better". Do not think of anything particular, as the words "in every way" apply to everything.
Make this autosuggestion with confidence, with faith, with the certainty of obtaining what you want. The greater the conviction, the greater and the more rapid will be the results obtained.
Further, every time in the course of the day or night that you feel any distress physical or mental, immediately affirm to yourself that you will not consciously contribute to it, and that you are going to make it disappear; then isolate yourself as much as possible, shut your eyes, and passing your hand over your forehead, if it is something mental, or over the part which is painful, if it is something physical, repeat extremely quickly, moving your lips, the words: "It is going, it is going—", etc., etc., as long as it may be necessary. With a little practice the physical or mental distress will have vanished in 20 to 25 seconds. Begin again whenever it is necessary. Avoid carefully any effort in practising autosuggestion.

# Self Mastery Through Conscious Autosuggestion/Advertising

The Remarkable Story of The First American Woman To Be Treated and Cured by Coué at Nancy.
MY PILGRIMAGE TO COUÉ
By ELLA BOYCE KIRK Patient and Pupil of Emile Coué
This book is one of absorbing interest, giving, as it does, an intimate, close-up account of the actual workings of Coué's wonderful methods. Mrs. Kirk relates graphically the details of her experience and makes the reader feel the kindly personality of Emile Coué. After reading "Self Mastery Through Conscious Autosuggestion," make your conception of Coué's methods complete by reading Mrs. Kirk's book.
MRS. KIRK'S STATEMENT
"TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: Mrs. Ella Boyce Kirk
For seventeen years I have been taking every form of treatment for stiffening and contraction of the muscles of the lower limbs. Nevertheless, I suffered intense pain and teas rapidly becoming unable to walk. Having read of M. Coué, I decided as a last resort to go to him at Nancy. I had hope but no faith, but after the first treatment I felt much better. Since the second treatment there has been no recurrence of the pain or stiffness. The improvement is increasing, and I now walk with ease.
(Signed) Mrs. Ella Boyce Kirk." Hotel Seymour, November 10, 1922. N. Y. City.
This book can be obtained at any book store or direct from publishers.
