The most effective method of healing or influencing the behavior of others consists in what is known as “the silent or absent treatment”.When the subject is unaware, objectively, of the suggestion given him there is no possibility of him setting up an antagonistic belief. It is not necessary that the patient know, objectively, that anything is being done for him.From what is known of the subjective and objective processes of reasoning, it is better that he should not know objectively of that which is being done for him. The more completely the objective mind is kept in ignorance of the suggestion, the better will the subjective mind perform its functions. The subject subconsciously accepts the suggestion and thinks he originates it, proving the truth of Spinoza’s dictum that we know not the causes that determine our actions.

The
process of all healing is a definite, positive, mental attitude, an inner
attitude, or a way of thinking, called faith. Healing is due to a confident
expectancy, which acts as a powerful suggestion to the subconscious mind
releasing its healing potency.
