Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! Autohipnosis, visualización, autocontrol y bienestar. En la década de 1920 Edmund Jacobson llevó a cabo un experimento demostrando que cuandouno se visualiza corriendo, los músculos de la pierna se mueven involuntariamente. Esta fue una clave importante que mostró el vínculo entre mente consciente y el sistema nervioso autónomo. (Automático) En la década de 1920 Shulltz y Luthe presentaron un informe de 2.400 historias de casos mostrando que la visualización y la relajación eran efectivas para ayudar a los pacientes a recuperarse de intervenciones quirúrgicas y en el tratamiento de asma, los dolores de cabeza, la artritis, el dolor de espalda y la diabetes. Además de los temas autogénicos básicos de pesadez y calor en las extremidades, los pacientes avanzados de Schultz emplearon imágenes tales como pararse en la cumbre de una montaña. Verse en la luna, volar por encima de las nubes y observar un amanecer. Franz Alexander es considerado el padre de la medicina psicosomática. En 1939 este médico de Chicago escribió: “Muchas alteraciones crónicas no son causadas por factores externos, mecánicos, químicos o por microorganismos, sino por el estrés funcional crónico continuo que surge durante la vida cotidiana del organismo en su lucha por la existencia.” Precisamente estas son la clase de alteraciones que pueden corregirse mejor con el abordaje de la visualización y el trance hipnótico, facilitador y optimizador de los recursos y capacidades de imaginería de la mente. El eminente psiquiatra italiano llamado Roberto Assaglioli fue alumno de Freud, Jung y Maslow. Assaglioli creó una psicología llamada Psicosíntesis. Este sistema ve a los seres humanos como tendiendo naturalmente hacia la armonía con su “yo”interno y el mundo externo. Assaglioli utilizó técnicas de visualización para diagnosticar problemas emocionales y entrenar a la voluntad para lograr el desarrollo personal. Hacia 1950 el poder de la fantasía mental estaba siendo explorado y utilizado en muchas disciplinas. Dick-Read empleó la visualización como parte de sus técnicas para parto natural. Una por una, las antiguas prácticas de visualización han sido validadas en el laboratorio.

(Automático) En la década de 1920 Shulltz y Luthe presentaron un informe de 2.400 historias de casos mostrando que la visualización y la relajación eran efectivas para ayudar a los pacientes a recuperarse de intervenciones quirúrgicas y en el tratamiento de asma, los dolores de cabeza, la artritis, el dolor de espalda y la diabetes.
