NEUBERN, Mauricio da Silva. Conversing with chronic pain: on hypnotic suggestions and levels of living experience. Psicol. rev. (Belo Horizonte) [online]. 2016, vol.22, n.3, pp.636-653. ISSN 1677-1168.  https://doi.org/DOI-10.5752/P.1678-9523.2016V22N3P636.

This article interweaves basic clinical and theoretical understandings of the relationships between types of hypnotic suggestions and the levels of living experiences described by people with chronic pain. Based on two brief clinical examples, it proposes relationships between the types of suggestions that use the semiotic signs of icons, indexes, and symbols, and relates them to the levels of vital and subjective experience. It is important to note that, while the suggestions can always involve all three types of signs, they can preferentially emphasize those that best address a specific level of living experience. In its conclusion, the article emphasizes that the relationship between hypnotic suggestions and levels of experience should be approached from a perspective of ample subjectivity, especially including the dimension of the subject and its different manners of autonomy
