The action of imagination: when it held its dispensary, it had lived a singular experiment:

one day, not being able to deliver a drug without ordinance with the one of its customers,

it had given a simple distilled water bottle to him while implying to him that it was about the active product.

There one has recognized the principle of the “placebo” whose therapeutic virtues are,

for this time, entered manners of the medical profession, under certain precise conditions.

Re-sifting this pseudo-miracle, it deduces the idea from it that imagination can have an action in rem

and tangible on the organization.

To validly look further into the new way of thinking, which opens in front of him,

it undertakes as of 1885 of the studies of psychology applied.

Coué comes from there - he not doctor - to preach a method autosuggestive, realizable of this fact by any individual,

and applicable not only to the nonorganic affections,

but also to the psychological weaknesses (like timidity and the trac), with the bad habits.

Generally, they can be used as regulating dynamic component and auxiliary harmonisator of medicine,

like invigorating psychological and mental psychological gymnastics for the people in good health.

The passion continuing everywhere, and durably, one will learn that in the United States,

it is called the “merchant of happiness ".
