It refers to the phenomenon of an event or matter changing the way something ought to be by appealing to one's unconscious mind. That is to say, by "assuming" the progression of events, one affects the outcome. Image training in sports, for example, is an attempt to achieve positive results through autosuggestion.
In the first place, self-suggestion can be considered a form of mind control in which one repeatedly addresses the subconscious mind and misleads the brain, thereby manipulating the body itself, its behavior, and its abilities, all of which are controlled by the brain.
By making people believe that ordinary water is "lacquer" [A type of liquid or powder used to create a hard finish on objects] through suggestion, the affected person's hands get a rash when immersed in the water. Conversely, it has been reported that when people were told that lacquer was just water and then dipped their hands in it, they did not develop a rash.
Although it's known that suggestion does indeed affect the human body, the mechanisms underlying the brain and body are not yet fully understood, and it's currently unknown why this phenomenon occurs.
The idea that "beliefs" can affect the body has existed since ancient times, such as the saying, "sickness begins in the mind". When a child is injured, they may try to relieve the pain by rubbing the affected area with words such as "pain, pain, fly away", which can be considered a kind of autosuggestion.
