As soon as the state is reached, it is time to begin with systematic suggestions. Their nature and content, of course, depend on the case and the practician's intentions. But I should like to give the following advice, in regard to form. Unless the situation calls specifically for the opposite procedure, suggestions should not be given as mere orders, for no matter how deep the trance may be, a human being resents being commanded and manifests resistance, if in disagreement. In fact, it should never be forgotten that one addresses, even in hypnosis, a being behaving according to certain psychological laws. Rather than order the subject about, the practician should offer him firm and wise leadership. Suggestions, strong, definite and clear, should be given in as natural a way as possible.
