2. "Nothing comes from the magnetizer, everything comes from the subject and takes place in his imagination"

   • Started out as a Portugese-Goan monk, studied Mesmer's work-thought it was,"entirely absurd" for magnets to be a vital part of the process.
     • In the 18th century, a German doctor 'Franz Mesmer' reintroduced healing therapy. His treatment included manipulating the body, and Magnetism by using magnets and suggestion.

3. Lucid Sleep

   • He saw himself as a 'concentrator' by helping patients get ready to be in trance
   • A concentration of the senses produced by will and only limited by internal freedom

4. Suggestion

   • Triggers the real and precise cause by a natural effect, but can't be produced by its own.
