Transcript
- 0:02Amelia Hue was a French psychologist who used the power
- 0:08of positive affirmations to heal his patients of numerous
- 0:11diseases. He created a program to be
- 0:15repeated a number of times during the day to turn the mind
- 0:19and the emotions into a positive direction to create a healing
- 0:24vibration and energy for the body.
- 0:27The mother expands upon the implications of coerce work by
- 0:32adding that it not only works on the body but also on the mental,
- 0:37emotional, and vital process. The underlying principle is to
- 0:43tune the mind and the feelings toward a vibration of Health
- 0:46Wellness, wholeness and uplifting energies, rather than
- 0:51letting them languish in a state of negativity or passivity.
- 0:57The mother observes quote Kawai was a doctor, he used to treat
- 1:03by psychological treatment autosuggestion and he called
- 1:07this, the true working of the imagination.
- 1:10And what he defined as imagination was faith.
- 1:14And so, he treated all his patients in this way, they had
- 1:18to make a kind of imaginative formation, which consisted in
- 1:22thinking themselves cured or in any case on the way to being
- 1:26cured. Andre in repeating this
- 1:29formation to themselves with sufficient persistence for it to
- 1:33have its effect. He had very remarkable results.
- 1:38He cured, lots of people only, he failed also, and perhaps
- 1:43these were not very lasting cures, I don't know this.
- 1:47But in any case, this made, many people reflect on something
- 1:50that's quite true and of capital importance. that the mind is a
- 1:56formative instrument and that if one knows how to use it, in the
- 2:00right way, when gets a good result, He observed and I think
- 2:05it's true. My observation agrees with his
- 2:09that people spend their time thinking wrongly their mental
- 2:13activity is almost always half pessimistic and even half
- 2:18destructive. They are all the time thinking
- 2:21of and for seeing bad things which may happen Troublesome
- 2:26consequences of what they've done.
- 2:28And they construct all kinds of catastrophes with an To
- 2:33imagination, which if it were utilized in the other way, but
- 2:38naturally have opposite and more satisfying results.
- 2:43If You observe yourself, if you how to put it, if you catch
- 2:47yourself thinking all of a sudden spontaneously
- 2:51unexpectedly, you will notice that nine times out of ten, you
- 2:56are thinking something Troublesome.
- 2:58It is, very rarely that you are thinking about harmonious.
- 3:02Beautiful constructive, happy things.
- 3:05Full of Hope, light and joy. You will see, try the experiment
- 3:12suddenly stop. And look at yourself thinking
- 3:15just like that. Put a screen in front of your
- 3:18thought. And look at yourself, thinking
- 3:20off hand, you will see this at least nine times out of ten and
- 3:24perhaps more. It is very rarely, very rarely
- 3:28that one has in the whole day. Suddenly a dazzling thought
- 3:32about what is going to happen or the state one is in or the
- 3:36things one wants to do or the It's of his life or World
- 3:40circumstances it depends you see on your preoccupation.
- 3:45Well, you see. It is almost always for seeing a
- 3:49bigger or smaller more or less vast catastrophe.
- 3:54Say you have the slightest thing that is not getting on quite
- 3:57well. If you think of your body, it is
- 4:01always that something unpleasant is going to happen to it because
- 4:05when everything goes, well, you don't think about it, you will
- 4:09notice this that you act, you do all that you have to do without
- 4:15having a single thought about your body.
- 4:17And when all of a sudden, you wonder whether there isn't
- 4:20anything that's going wrong, whether there are some easy Yes,
- 4:24or a difficulty something. Then you begin to think of your
- 4:28body, and you think about it with anxiety and begin to make
- 4:33your disastrous constructions. Whereas QA recommended it was in
- 4:39this way that he cured his patients.
- 4:41He was a doctor. He told them, you were going to
- 4:44repeat to yourself. I am being cured gradually.
- 4:48I am getting cured. And again, you see, I am strong.
- 4:53I am quite healthy and I can do this, I can do that.
