From the author: About hypnosis and psychosomatics - The subconscious is the past of the soul, which stores all the developed and innate reflexes, memories from the moment of birth (and beyond, but that’s another story). Who controls such a huge inner world? Consciousness has no power over physiological processes. You cannot force yourself to fall asleep, blush, reduce or increase blood flow with one order. External circumstances? A person is not a machine, although sometimes he acts in accordance with some kind of program, but more often he can act as he sees fit. The answer will not be a secret. The subconscious (unconscious or deep mind) is a living, self-organizing system. This is what wise Nature decided, a discussion of whose purposes is beyond the scope of this article. The task is more prosaic: how to intervene in this invisible work of the body and psyche. We’ll return to Stanislavsky a little later, but for now, watch an excerpt from the film “Seven Steps Beyond the Horizon.” The recording presents the experiments of Professor Raikov. Two young people were told under hypnosis that they had become (here and now are) creative individuals. A girl reads poetry under hypnosis, a young man draws a portrait. (Watch from 52 minutes) Let's stop and answer quite natural questions from readers. These people do not stand out in any way; none of them became either a great artist or a famous poetess. But on the recording we see something else, how can this be? No, each of the subjects had a drop of talent, which the hypnotist enhanced significantly through suggestion. That's all. Why is this not used in art and science? Stop how this is not used. A true scientist is so concentrated on the problem being studied that he thinks about it all day long and often goes into himself in search of an answer. An actor spends years honing techniques for getting into the desired image, developing facial expressions and voice, and learning to evoke genuine emotions. An architect in a dream can see a structure in its entirety, an artist in a light drowsiness sees the idea of ​​a painting. All this has long been known to creative people. But for now these are words, how to catch inspiration? Let’s turn to the works of Stanislavsky. Let's take what lies on the surface, namely the desire of the System to achieve “the subconscious through the conscious.” Konstantin Sergeevich says through the mouth of Tortsov in the book “The Actor’s Work on Oneself” that “In creativity, you must first get carried away and feel, and then want. That is why we have to admit that the influence of a task on the will is not direct, but indirect” and further “An actor lives, he cries and laughs on stage, but while crying and laughing, he observes his laughter and his tears. And in this dual life, in this balance between life and play, art lies.” In hypnosis, a person can be inspired or forced (fairy tales about the fact that you cannot go against beliefs and values, even if they still weigh like noodles on the ears of gullible listeners) to play some role. But people are different, and when the hypnotist gives the suggestion “Nicholas, you are Alexander the Great, Nicholas, you, Alexander the Great!”, then everyone will act in accordance with existing ideas about the personality of the great commander. Hypnosis collects into a single image all individual experience (pictures, excerpts from articles from history, episodes from films). An example of suggested behavior on stage during a session of pop hypnosis (photo from 1989). The subconscious is capable of recalling any feelings from memory. Specialists who are proficient in classical hypnosis have conducted experiments more than once (for therapeutic purposes; real doctors are not employees of any mystical organizations or detachments 731). Here is a description of one such case from the book by K.I. Platonov “The Word as a Physiological and Healing Factor”: “The patient was put to sleep, after which we made the following verbal suggestion: “It’s 1928, you’re at the Sechenov Institute, wake up!” He woke up, and his entire posture and facial expression reflected his depressed state: a sad, thoughtful, suffering expression on his face, a motionless posture. He began to wring his hands, sigh heavily, and tears streamed down his face. To the question:».
