Hi killerb

If you read the article by Emile Coue you'll get a better understanding
of "The hand locking test" as it's to do with Coues law of reversed
effort. He also talks of how the imagination is more powerful that the
conscious will. Once you put these ideas together and use specific
wording like "try" for instance then the whole effect becomes easier to
produce in your subject.

BTW. I uploaded a pdf copy of the Emile Coue article on the group file.


Kind Regards
Harry Cannon

Yeah, I found that site aswell, just forgot to post it. Still haven't
read it though.

If you're talking about "The hand locking test", no I haven't ever
got it to work either. If you do, please tell me how you did it!
