not to vocabulary memorization and acquiring habits of speech, but to acts of communication” (1978: 109).
- Lozanov further claims that what distinguishes his method from hypnosis and
other forms of mind control is that these other forms lack “a
desuggestive-suggestive sense” and “fail to create a constant set up access to
reserves through concentrative psycho-relaxation”
