| "Subliminal Therapy" by Edwin K. Yager, Ph.D. |
Subliminal Therapy is a technique of psychotherapy that utilizes unconscious abilities to achieve consciously desired change. This video provides training in its use and offers background, theory and application instructions (Part I), followed by two demonstrations with annotations (Part II). The Procedure of Subliminal Therapy: After defining the goal of therapy, the patient is instructed in the theory and model of Subliminal Therapy and is taught to recognize communications from the unconscious domain of his mind - as differentiated from conscious opinion. By direct communication with his unconscious, in a logical progression of steps, the patient is guided to achieve insight regarding the therapeutic goal and to remove barriers to its achievement. Insights that are initially surprising, and perhaps that challenge conscious beliefs, are often encountered. Subliminal Therapy was conceived by Dr Yager in 1974. Since that time, the development and teaching of the principles of Subliminal Therapy, have become a significant focus of Dr Yager's professional life. Dr Yager wrote the paper entitled "Utilizing Unconscious Abilities in Therapy: Subliminal Therapy" as an aid to teaching the principles of Subliminal Therapy. A precursor of this paper was published in 1978, in the Journal of the American Academy of Medical Hypnoanalysis, 11-4. The current version of this manuscript is available to you without charge in Adobe PDF Format. |
