[0008] Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below.

[0009] 1. Computer Figure 1 is a block diagram of a computer 100 used in one embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the computer 100 is preferably a robot-type computer with artificial intelligence that closely resembles a human in appearance, but it may also be composed of, for example, a general-purpose personal computer, a tablet terminal, a smartphone, or a VR terminal. The computer 100 may also be hosted on the cloud.

[0010] As shown in Figure 1, the computer 100 includes a CPU (arithmetic unit) 101, memory (storage device) 102, auxiliary storage device 103, audio output device 104, and sound collection device 105, which are interconnected by a bus. The computer 100 is also connected to a display device 106 and an input device 107 by wired or wireless connections.

[0011] The CPU 101 reads the computer program 110 stored in the auxiliary storage device 103 into the memory 102 and executes it. As a result, the computer 100 will perform the following actions, as will be described later. The process involves performing each step to restore the subject's mental balance.

[0012] Memory 102 is a storage device capable of high-speed writing and reading, such as DRAM or SRAM, and auxiliary storage device 103 is a large-capacity storage device, such as an SSD or HDD. In addition to various programs, auxiliary storage device 103 also stores graphic data 111, which includes a collection of graphics 10 described later, screen data 112 for displaying question screens, etc., and dictionary data 113 that records various terms. Furthermore, the audio output device 104 is made up of a speaker, and the sound collection device 105 is made up of a microphone.

[0013] The computer program 110 according to the present invention is stored as part of the data in the auxiliary storage device 103 after being installed on the computer 100. The computer program 110 may be downloaded via a communication network such as the Internet after connecting the computer 100 to the Internet, or it may be installed on the computer 100 via a computer-readable recording medium such as a CD-ROM.

[0014] The display device 106 is composed of, for example, a liquid crystal display and displays a collection of shapes, as described later. The input device 107 is composed of a touch panel or a keyboard, and the subject can give instructions and responses to the computer 100 by operating the input device 107.

[0015] 2. A collection of shapes The present invention is characterized by using a collection of geometric shapes to restore the mental balance of a subject. Figure 2 shows a collection of geometric shapes (hereinafter referred to as "collection") 10 used in one embodiment of the present invention.

[0016] The aggregate 10 includes the first to seventh figures 1 to 7. The first to seventh figures 1 to 7 are arranged symmetrically overall. As will be described later, the aggregate 10 is presented to the subject by being displayed on the display device 106 shown in Figure 1, but is not limited to this, and may be displayed on display media such as a whiteboard, Google Glass®, paper media, monitor screen, VR screen, etc.

[0017] The first figure 1 (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "figure 1") is located in the center of the top of the aggregate 10. The shape and pattern of the first figure 1 are not particularly limited, but are not shapes and patterns that are biased towards one of two contrasting concepts, such as "+" or "-".

[0018] The second figure 2 (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "figure 2") is positioned diagonally below the first figure 1. In this embodiment, the second figure 2 is positioned diagonally below and to the right of the first figure 1 and has a "+" shape.

[0019] The third figure 3 (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "figure 3") has a shape that represents a concept opposite to that of the second figure 2, and is positioned symmetrically to the second figure 2 with respect to a hypothetical vertical line passing through the first figure 1. In this embodiment, the third figure 3 has the shape of a "-" and is positioned diagonally below and to the left of the first figure 1.

[0020] The fourth figure 4 (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "figure 4") has the same shape as the third figure 3 and is positioned diagonally below the second figure 2. In this embodiment, the fourth figure 4 has the shape of a "-" and is positioned spaced diagonally below and to the right of the second figure 2.

[0021] The fifth figure, 5 (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "figure 5"), shares common elements with the second figure, 2. The fifth figure has the shape of a "+" and is positioned symmetrically with respect to the fourth figure 4, with a virtual vertical line passing through the second figure 2 in between. In this embodiment, the fifth figure 5 has the shape of a "+" and is positioned diagonally below and to the left of the second figure 2.

[0022] The sixth figure 6 (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "figure 6") has the same shape as the third figure 3 and is positioned diagonally below the third figure 3. In this embodiment, the sixth figure 6 has the shape of a "-" and is positioned spaced diagonally below and to the right of the third figure 3.

[0023] The seventh figure 7 (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as "figure 7") has the same shape as the second figure 2 and is positioned symmetrically to the sixth figure 6 across a virtual vertical line passing through the third figure 3. In this embodiment, the seventh figure 7 has the shape of a "+" and is positioned diagonally below and to the left of the third figure 3.

[0024] As described above, the shapes of the second, fifth, and seventh figures 2, 5, and 7, and the shapes of the third, fourth, and sixth figures 3, 4, and 6, represent contrasting concepts. In this embodiment, the second, fifth, and seventh figures 2, 5, and 7 have a "+" shape, while the third, fourth, and sixth figures 3, 4, and 6 have a "-" shape.

[0025] The aggregate used in this invention is not limited to the aggregate 10 shown in Figure 2. Modified examples of the aggregate 10 are shown in Figures 3 to 5.

[0026] For example, as shown in the aggregate 10a in Figure 3, the second figure 2 and the third figure 3 may be swapped. Furthermore, in aggregate 10a, along with the swapping of the second figure 2 and the third figure 3, the fourth and fifth figures 4 and 5, and the sixth and seventh figures 6 and 7 are also replaced.

[0027] Furthermore, the aggregate 10b shown in Figure 4 is obtained by replacing the fourth figure 4 and the fifth figure 5, and the sixth figure 6 and the seventh figure 7, in the aggregate 10 shown in Figure 2.

[0028] Furthermore, the aggregate 10c shown in Figure 5 is formed by changing the shapes of the second to seventh figures 2 to 7 in the aggregate 10 shown in Figure 2 to shapes that represent the opposite concept. That is, in aggregate 10c, the second, fifth, and seventh figures 2, 5, and 7 have the shape of "-", while the third, fourth, and sixth figures 3, 4, and 6 have the shape of "+".

[0029] In the second figure 2 and the third figure 3, the "+" or "-" characters are enclosed in solid circles, while in the fourth to seventh figures 4 to 7, the "+" or "-" characters are enclosed in dashed circles. The solid lines surrounding the second figure 2 and the third figure 3 indicate that these figures correspond to the subject's thoughts and their objects. The dashed lines surrounding the fourth to seventh figures 4 to 7 indicate that these figures correspond to the subject's unconscious state of mind. Specifically, this state of mind refers to the subject's unconscious and blind spots, as well as the unconscious and blind spots of the objects of thought, which will be discussed later.

[0030] Thus, in the assemblies 10, 10a, 10b, and 10c of the present invention, the first to seventh figures 1 to 7 are arranged symmetrically as a whole. Furthermore, the shapes of the second, fifth, and seventh figures 2, 5, and 7, and the shapes of the third, fourth, and sixth figures 3, 4, and 6, represent contrasting concepts.

[0031] In the examples shown in Figures 2 to 5, the shapes of Figures 2 to 7 are "+" and "-", but the present invention can be applied to any shape that represents a contrasting concept. This is not limited to these examples. For instance, shapes such as "♂" and "♀", "○" and "×", "↑" and "↓", and "←" and "→" can be used. Here, a recognition system may be implemented by assigning a corresponding concept to each of these contrasting shapes.

[0032] Furthermore, the shape and pattern of the first figure 1 are not particularly limited, as they do not represent something biased towards one of two contrasting concepts, unlike the second to seventh figures 2 to 7. In this embodiment, the first figure 1 is a dashed circular frame.

[0033] 3. Procedure Figure 6 is a flowchart showing the overall process for restoring the mental balance of a subject, which is carried out by the computer 100 shown in Figure 1 executing the computer program 110. The process includes step S1, which involves having the subject recall a collection of shapes; step S2, which involves assigning the subject's emotions and mental state to the shapes; and step S3, which involves having the subject understand the cognitive system represented by the collection. The following explanation will use the case in which the above method is carried out using the collection 10 shown in Figure 2 as an example.

[0034] In step S1, the computer 100 prompts the subject to recall the aggregate 10. In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 7, the CPU 101 reads the graphic data 111 into the memory 102 according to the algorithm of the computer program 110 (step S1-1) and displays the aggregate 10 on the display device 106 (step S1-2). This prompts the subject to recall the aggregate 10. The method of presenting the aggregate 10 is not particularly limited. For example, the robot-type computer 100 with artificial intelligence may present the subject with a paper medium on which the aggregate 10 is depicted, or it may present the aggregate 10 to the subject by displaying it on a display medium such as a whiteboard, Google Glass®, projector, monitor screen, tablet screen, or VR screen. Alternatively, the subject may be prompted to recall the aggregate 10 by verbally describing the size, shape, pattern, arrangement, etc., of each figure in the aggregate 10.

[0035] Next, in step S2, computer 100 assigns the subject's emotions and mental state to the figures of the set 10. Specifically, it associates the second figure 2 with the subject's thoughts, the third figure 3 with the object of the subject's thoughts, the fourth figure 4 with the subject's unconscious, the fifth figure 5 with the subject's mental blind spot, the sixth figure 6 with the object's mental blind spot, and the seventh figure 7 with the object's unconscious. Here, "subject's thoughts" does not mean all of the subject's thoughts, but rather the thoughts that are causing the subject's mental conflict.

[0036] The following describes a specific example of the process in step S2 of this embodiment. Figure 8 is a flowchart showing the specific process of step S2 shown in Figure 6. First, with the aggregate 10 displayed on the display device 106, the second figure 2 is made to blink for 5 seconds (step S2-1). Then, as shown in Figure 9, the words "Your thoughts" are displayed in a callout near the second figure 2.

[0037] The same process is performed for the third to seventh figures, 3 to 7. Specifically, in step S2-3 of Figure 8, the third figure, 3, is made to blink for 5 seconds, and then a speech bubble displaying "The object of your thoughts" is displayed near the third figure, 3 (step S2-4). Furthermore, the fourth figure, 4, is made to blink for 5 seconds (step S2-5), and then a speech bubble displaying "Your unconscious" is displayed near the fourth figure, 4 (step S2-6). Furthermore, the fifth figure, 5, is made to blink for 5 seconds (step S2-7), and then a speech bubble displaying "Your blind spot" is displayed near the fifth figure, 5 (step S2-8). Furthermore, the sixth figure, 6, is made to blink for 5 seconds (step S2-9), and then a speech bubble displaying "Blind spot of the object of your thoughts" is displayed near the sixth figure, 6. (Step S2-10). Furthermore, the seventh figure 7 is made to blink for 5 seconds (Step S2-11), and then a speech bubble saying "The unconscious object of your thoughts" is displayed near the seventh figure 7 (Step S2-12). By displaying the screen in this way, the subject's emotions and mental state are assigned to each figure.

[0038] Subsequently, a question screen Q1 is displayed to confirm whether the subject understood the association between the shapes (step S2-13). As shown in Figure 10, the question screen Q1 includes "yes" and "no" buttons. If the subject selects "yes" (Yes in step S2-14), step S2 shown in Figure 6 is completed. If the subject selects "no" (No in step S2-14), steps S2-1 to S2-13 are repeated.

[0039] The above describes a specific example of the processing in step S2 of this embodiment. In steps S2-2, S2-4, S2-6, S2-8, S2-10, and S2-12, the computer 100 may also emit sound from the voice output device 104 along with the speech bubble display. Alternatively, the computer 100 may explain the contents of the speech bubble display to the subject using only the sound from the voice output device 104 instead of the speech bubble display. Alternatively, if the collection 10 is drawn on a whiteboard, paper, etc., the robot-type computer 100 may handwrite the concepts associated with each figure. If the sixth and seventh figures 6 and 7 are not included in the collection 10, no association is made with the sixth figure 6 and the seventh figure 7.

[0040] Next, in step S3 shown in Figure 6, the computer 100 helps the subject understand the recognition system represented in the aggregate 10 based on the contrast between the second figure 2 and the third figure 3, the fourth figure 4 and the fifth figure 5, and the sixth figure 6 and the seventh figure 7.

[0041] The second figure 2 and the third figure 3 have shapes that represent contrasting concepts. For example, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, when the second figure 2 is in the shape of a "+", the third figure 3 is in the shape of a "-", and as shown in Figure 5, when the second figure 2 is in the shape of a "-", the third figure 3 is in the shape of a "+".

[0042] The shapes of "+" and "-" signify that they are in an opposing relationship. Similarly, the subject's own thoughts and what they feel towards the object that creates their inner conflict are in an opposing relationship. For example, suppose the object the subject feels towards their boss (hereinafter referred to as "the object") is "the coldness of their boss at work." The reason the subject feels "coldness" from their boss is that their own thoughts are relatively "warm" compared to those of the boss, but the subject is usually unaware of this. Here, from the perspective of the cognitive system represented in collective 10, by associating the subject's own emotions (warmth) captured by their thoughts, and what they feel towards the object of their thoughts (coldness), with the second figure 2 and the third figure 3, which have shapes representing contrasting concepts, the subject can easily recognize that their thoughts and what they feel towards the object of their thoughts are relative concepts, and the unconscious and blind spots that are causing their inner conflict can be made apparent in their thoughts.

[0043] The following describes a specific example of the processing in step S3 of this embodiment. Figure 11 is a flowchart showing a part of the specific processing procedure in step S3 shown in Figure 6. First, with the aggregate 10 displayed, the second figure 2 and the third figure 3 are made to blink for 2 seconds (step S3-1). Then, as shown in Figure 12, the words "Plus and minus are relative" are displayed between the second figure 2 and the third figure 3 for 2 seconds (step S3-2). Then, as shown in Figure 13, the shape of the second figure 2 is changed to the shape of "-" over 2 seconds, and at the same time, the shape of the third figure 3 is changed to the shape of "+" over 2 seconds (step S3-3). Then, As shown in 14, the shape of the second figure 2 is returned to the shape of a "+" over 2 seconds, and at the same time, the shape of the third figure 3 is returned to the shape of a "-" over 2 seconds (step S3-4).

[0044] The same process is performed for the fourth figure 4 and the fifth figure 5. That is, in step S3-5 of Figure 11, the fourth figure 4 and the fifth figure 5 are made to blink for 2 seconds, and then, as shown in Figure 15, the words "Plus and minus are relative" are displayed between the fourth figure 4 and the fifth figure 5 for 2 seconds (step S3-6). Then, as shown in Figure 16, the shape of the fourth figure 4 is changed to a "+" shape over 2 seconds, and at the same time, the shape of the fifth figure 5 is changed to a "-" shape over 2 seconds (step S3-7). Then, as shown in Figure 17, the shape of the fourth figure 4 is changed back to a "-" shape over 2 seconds, and at the same time, the shape of the fifth figure 5 is changed back to a "+" shape over 2 seconds (step S3-8).

[0045] The same process is performed for the sixth figure 6 and the seventh figure 7. That is, in step S3-9 of Figure 11, the sixth figure 6 and the seventh figure 7 are made to blink for 2 seconds, and then, as shown in Figure 18, the words "Plus and minus are relative" are displayed between the sixth figure 6 and the seventh figure 7 for 2 seconds (step S3-10). Then, as shown in Figure 19, the shape of the sixth figure 6 is changed to a "+" shape over 2 seconds, and at the same time, the shape of the seventh figure 7 is changed to a "-" shape over 2 seconds (step S3-11). Then, as shown in Figure 20, the shape of the sixth figure 6 is changed back to a "-" shape over 2 seconds, and at the same time, the shape of the seventh figure 7 is changed back to a "+" shape over 2 seconds (step S3-12). Steps S3-10 to S3-12 may be omitted.

[0046] Next, a question screen Q2 is displayed to confirm whether the subject understood the symmetry of each figure (step S3-13). As shown in Figure 21, the question screen Q2 includes the message, "Did you understand that figure 2 and figure 3, figure 4 and figure 5, and figure 6 and figure 7 are symmetries?", as well as "Yes" and "No" buttons. If the subject selects "Yes" (Yes in step S3-14), the program proceeds to step S3-15 shown in Figure 22. If the subject selects "No" (No in step S3-14), steps S3-1 to S3-13 are repeated.

[0047] Next, in step S3-15 shown in Figure 22, question screen Q3 shown in Figure 23 is displayed for 5 seconds. Question screen Q3 contains the message, "Please think of someone in your relationship that causes you stress." After that, input screen E1 shown in Figure 24 is displayed (step S3-16). Input screen E1 contains the message, "Please enter the name of that person," a text input field, and a "Next" button. The subject enters the name of the person in question in the text input field and selects the "Next" button to complete the input. In this embodiment, the name of the person in question is "A." Once the subject has completed the input on input screen E1 (Yes in step S3-17), question screen Q4 shown in Figure 25 is displayed (step S3-18). Question screen Q4 contains the message, "Do you feel stressed in your relationship with person A?", as well as "Yes" and "No" buttons. If the subject selects "Yes" on question screen Q4 (Yes in step S3-19), question screen Q5 shown in Figure 26 is displayed (step S3-20). Question screen Q5 includes the message "What aspects of Person A do you find stressful?", a text input field, and a "Next" button. The subject completes the input by entering their answer in the text input field and selecting the "Next" button. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the answer "cold" is entered.

[0048] In addition, while the question screen Q5 shown in Figure 26 allows users to freely enter text in the text input field, it may also be possible to use a format where users select from multiple options, as shown in the modified example in Figure 27. Once the subject completes their input on the question screen Q5 (Yes in step S3-21), the process proceeds to step S3-22 as shown in Figure 28.

[0049] In step S3-22, the screen switches to the aggregate 10 screen and the second shape 2 blinks for 2 seconds. Then, as shown in Figure 29, a speech bubble saying "You" is displayed near the second shape 2 (step S3-23). ​​Next, the third shape 3 blinks for 2 seconds (step S3-24), and then, as shown in Figure 30, a speech bubble saying "Person A = Cold" is displayed near the third shape 3 for 3 seconds (step S3-25). Next, the fourth shape 4 blinks for 2 seconds (step S3-26), and then, as shown in Figure 31, a speech bubble saying "Unconscious = What you are hiding" is displayed near the fourth shape 4 for 3 seconds (step S3-27). Then, as shown in Figure 32, an arrow is displayed from the fourth shape 4 towards the third shape 3 (step S3-28). Furthermore, the third figure 3 is made to blink for 2 seconds (step S3-29), and then, as shown in Figure 33, a speech bubble appears near the third figure 3 that reads "Your unconscious is reflected in Person A" (step S3-30). Subsequently, as shown in Figure 34, a speech bubble appears near the fourth figure 4 that reads "What you are unconsciously hiding is reflected in Person A, causing you to feel stressed towards Person A" (step S3-31). Then, as shown in Figure 35, an arrow is displayed from the fifth figure 5 towards the fourth figure 4 (step S3-32). Furthermore, the fifth figure 5 is made to blink for 2 seconds (step S3-33), and then, as shown in Figure 36, a speech bubble appears near the fifth figure 5 that reads "Your blind spot" (step S3-34). Subsequently, as shown in Figure 37, the words "Blind spots create the unconscious" are displayed below the fourth figure 4 and the fifth figure 5 (step S3-35). Furthermore, as shown in Figure 38, an arrow is displayed from the second figure 2 to the third figure 3, with the words "Feeling towards the other person" displayed above it. Next, a speech bubble is displayed in the upper left of the third figure 3 with the words "Emotions you feel towards the other person." Then, an arrow is displayed between the third figure 3 and the fourth figure 4 to indicate that they are opposites, with the words "Opposite" displayed above it. Furthermore, a speech bubble is displayed in the lower right of the fourth figure 4 with the words "Emotions opposite to 'Emotions you feel towards the other person'." Finally, below the group 10, the words "Emotions opposite to 'Emotions you feel towards the other person' exist within you" are displayed (Step S3-36). The arrow from the second figure 2 to the third figure 3 is preferably green.Next, the dictionary data 113 shown in Figure 1 is read, and the word that means the opposite emotion to "cold" (warm) is selected from the dictionary data 113. As shown in Figure 39, "cold" is displayed near the third figure 3, and "warm" is displayed in a callout near the fifth figure 5 (step S3-37). An example of the dictionary data 113 is shown in Table 1. [Table 1]

[0050] Furthermore, if the word entered by the user on question screen Q5 (Figure 26 or Figure 27) is not included in the dictionary data 113, the computer 100 may access any dictionary data on the cloud and obtain a word that is the exact opposite of the entered word. In addition, the dictionary data 113 may be updated by machine learning each time a word not included in the dictionary data 113 is entered.

[0051] After step S3-37, the question screen Q4 shown in Figure 40 is displayed (step S3-38). Question screen Q4 includes the message, "Do you understand the mechanism by which you feel stressed by Person A?", as well as "Yes" and "No" buttons. If the subject selects "Yes" (Yes in step S3-39), the process proceeds to step S3-40 shown in Figure 41. If the subject selects "No" (No in step S3-39), steps S3-22 to S3-38 are repeated.

[0052] Steps S3-15 to S3-21 shown in Figure 22 and steps S3-22 to S3-39 shown in Figure 28 may be omitted. That is, if the answer to step S3-14 shown in Figure 11 is Yes, the process may proceed to step S3-40 shown in Figure 41.

[0053] Next, in step S3-40 shown in Figure 41, question screen Q7 shown in Figure 42 is displayed for 5 seconds. Question screen Q7 contains the message, "Please think of someone with whom you feel comfortable in your relationships." After that, input screen E1 shown in Figure 24 is displayed (step S3-41). Input screen E1 contains the message, "Please enter the name of that person," a text input field, and a "Next" button. The input is completed when the subject enters the name of the person in question in the text input field and selects the "Next" button. In this embodiment, the name of the person in question is "B." Once the subject has completed the input on input screen E1 (Yes in step S3-42), question screen Q8 shown in Figure 43 is displayed (step S3-43). Question screen Q8 contains the message, "Do you feel comfortable in your relationship with person B?", as well as "Yes" and "No" buttons. If the subject selects "Yes" on question screen Q8 (Yes in step S3-44), question screen Q9 shown in Figure 44 is displayed (step S3-45). Question screen Q9 includes the message "What aspects of Person B do you find comfortable?", a text input field, and a "Next" button. The subject enters their answer in the text input field and selects the "Next" button to complete the input. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the answer "Humility" is entered. Once the subject has completed the input on question screen Q9 (Yes in step S3-46), the process proceeds to step S3-47 shown in Figure 45.

[0054] In step S3-47, the screen switches to the aggregate 10 and the third figure 3 is made to blink for 2 seconds. Then, as shown in Figure 46, a speech bubble saying "You" is displayed near the third figure 3 (step S3-48). Next, the second figure 2 is made to blink for 2 seconds (step S3-49), and then, as shown in Figure 47, a speech bubble saying "Person B = Humble" is displayed near the third figure 3 for 3 seconds (step S3-50). Next, the seventh figure 7 is made to blink for 2 seconds (step S3-51), and then, as shown in Figure 48, a speech bubble saying "Unconscious = What you are hiding" is displayed near the seventh figure 7 for 3 seconds (step S3-52). Then, as shown in Figure 49, an arrow is displayed from the seventh figure 7 to the second figure 2 (step S3-53). Furthermore, the second figure 2 is made to blink for 2 seconds (step S3-54), and then, as shown in Figure 50, a speech bubble is displayed near the second figure 2 that reads "Your unconscious is reflected in Person B" (step S3-55). Subsequently, as shown in Figure 51, a speech bubble is displayed near the seventh figure 7 that reads "What you unconsciously hide is reflected in Person B, so you feel comfortable around Person B" (step S3-56). Then, as shown in Figure 52, an arrow is displayed from the sixth figure 6 to the seventh figure 7 (step S3-57). Furthermore, the sixth figure 6 is made to blink for 2 seconds (step S3-58), and then, as shown in Figure 53, a speech bubble is displayed near the sixth figure 6 that reads "Your blind spot" (step S3-59). Subsequently, as shown in Figure 54, the words "Blind spots create the unconscious" are displayed below the sixth figure 6 and the seventh figure 7 (step S3-60). Furthermore, as shown in Figure 55, a green arrow is displayed from the third figure 3 to the second figure 2, with the words "Feeling towards the other person" displayed above it. Next, a speech bubble displaying "Feelings towards the other person" is displayed in the upper right corner of the second figure 2, and then an arrow indicating that they are opposites is displayed between the second figure 2 and the seventh figure 7. A mark is displayed, and at the same time, the word "The exact opposite" is displayed above it. Furthermore, a speech bubble is displayed in the lower left of the seventh figure 7 that reads "An emotion that is the exact opposite of the emotion you feel towards the other person." Finally, below the group 10, the word "An emotion that is the exact opposite of the emotion you feel towards the other person exists within you" is displayed (Step S3-61). The arrow from the third figure 3 to the second figure 2 should preferably be green. Next, the dictionary data 113 shown in Figure 1 is read, and the word that means the emotion that is the exact opposite of "humility" (arrogance) is selected from the dictionary data 113. As shown in Figure 56, "humility" is displayed near the second figure 2, and "arrogance" is displayed in a speech bubble near the sixth figure 6 (Step S3-62).

[0055] Next, the question screen Q10 shown in Figure 57 is displayed (step S3-63). The question screen Q10 contains the message, "Have you understood the mechanism by which Person B feels comfortable?", as well as "Yes" and "No" buttons. If the subject selects "Yes" (Yes in step S3-64), the process proceeds to step S3-65 shown in Figure 58. If the subject selects "No" (No in step S3-64), steps S3-47 to S3-62 are repeated.

[0056] Steps S3-41 to S3-66 shown in Figure 41 and steps S3-47 to S3-64 shown in Figure 45 may be omitted. That is, if the answer is Yes in step S3-39 shown in Figure 28, the process may proceed to step S3-65 shown in Figure 58.

[0057] Next, in step S3-65 shown in Figure 58, with the aggregate 10 displayed, the first figure 1 and the fourth to seventh figures 4-7 are made to blink for 2 seconds before being hidden. This results in the state shown in Figure 59. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 60, a bidirectional arrow is made to blink for 3 seconds between the second figure 2 and the third figure 3 along with the word "relative" (step S3-66). After that, as shown in Figure 61, the "+" and "-" figures are displayed from behind figure 2 and move to the positions of the fifth figure 5 and the fourth figure 4, respectively (step S3-67). Similarly, as shown in Figure 62, the "+" and "-" figures are displayed from behind figure 3 and move to the positions of the seventh figure 7 and the sixth figure 6, respectively (step S3-68). Next, as shown in Figure 63, the fourth figure 4 and the fifth figure 5 are enclosed in a dashed rectangular frame 8 (step S3-69). Furthermore, as shown in Figure 64, the message "Figure 2 is made up of opposing positive and negative values" is displayed directly below the rectangular frame 8 for 3 seconds (Step S3-70). Similarly, as shown in Figure 65, the sixth figure 6 and the seventh figure 7 are enclosed in a dashed rectangular frame 9 (Step S3-71). Furthermore, as shown in Figure 66, the message "Figure 3 is made up of opposing positive and negative values" is displayed directly below the rectangular frame 9 for 3 seconds (Step S3-72). After that, as shown in Figure 67, "=" is displayed between rectangular frame 8 and rectangular frame 9 for 3 seconds (Step S-73). Subsequently, the question screen Q11 shown in Figure 68 is displayed (Step S3-74). Question screen Q11 includes the message, "Do you understand that square frame 8 and square frame 9 are superficially relative but essentially equal?", as well as "Yes" and "No" buttons. If the subject selects "Yes" (Yes in step S3-75), the process proceeds to step S3-76 as shown in Figure 69. If the subject selects "No" (No in step S3-75), steps S3-65 to S3-74 are repeated.

[0058] Next, in step S3-76 shown in Figure 69, with the second to seventh figures 2-7 displayed, as shown in Figure 70, the shape of the second figure 2 is changed to a "-" shape over 2 seconds, and at the same time, the shape of the third figure 3 is changed to a "+" shape over 2 seconds (step S3-76). Furthermore, as shown in Figure 71, the shape of the second figure 2 is changed back to a "+" shape over 2 seconds, and at the same time, the shape of the third figure 3 is changed back to a "-" shape over 2 seconds (step S3-77). After repeating these steps S3-76 and S3-77 five times (Yes in step S3-78), the words "Depending on your emotions and mental state, you can..." appear near figure 2. It displays "It can be positive or negative. However, positive and negative actually exist in pairs." (Step S3-79). Next, as shown in Figure 73, the first figure 1 is made to blink for 3 seconds and then displayed (Step S3-80). Then, as shown in Figure 74, the message "This new perspective is born. By looking at figures 2-7 from above, we can see that figure 2 and figure 3 are originally equal" is displayed near the first figure 1 (Step S3-81). Next, as shown in Figure 75, "You" is displayed to the right of figure 2 and "The other person" is displayed to the left of figure 3 (Step S3-82). Furthermore, as shown in Figure 76, "=" is displayed between figure 2 and figure 3 (Step S3-83). Next, the question screen Q12 shown in Figure 77 is displayed (Step S3-84). Question screen Q12 includes the message, "Have you come to understand that what you feel towards the other person is actually the same as what you feel inside?", as well as "Yes" and "No" buttons. If the participant selects "Yes" (Yes in step S3-85), step S3 shown in Figure 6 is completed. If the participant selects "No" (No in step S3-85), steps S3-76 to S3-84 are repeated.

[0059] The above describes a specific example of the processing in step S3 of this embodiment. It should be noted that the auxiliary storage device 103 of the computer 100 may store information regarding the specific causes of the subject's emotional conflict and their life background, obtained from the subject in advance through questionnaires or other means. The computer 100 may then explain to the subject the meaning of each shape using expressions such as "warmth (+)" or "coldness (-)." In addition to "warmth" and "coldness," other concepts such as "independence" and "dependence," and "optimism" and "pessimism" can be used as pairs of emotions or states of mind.

[0060] The unconscious and blind spots of the subject, associated with the fourth figure 4 and the fifth figure 5 respectively, are concepts with two polarities that create conflict within the subject's mind. Everyone possesses these concepts, and like the fourth figure 4 and the fifth figure 5, the unconscious and blind spots are constantly in conflict within the mind. In the example above, if the subject feels coldness from their boss at work, then two concepts with polarities, "warmth (+)" and "coldness (-)," exist within the subject's mind. In the internal conflict, "warmth (+)" prevails, and the subject's thoughts (second figure 2) assimilate to "warmth (+)." As a result, the subject experiences the sensation of "coldness (-)" towards the object of their thoughts. Since this "warmth (+)" is something the subject has assimilated, the subject usually does not become aware of their own "warmth" (blind spot = fifth figure 5). At the same time, the subject's "coldness (-)" is subconscious, so they are unaware that it is their own state, and it remains unconscious (Figure 4 of the fourth section). The "coldness" that the subject feels towards their boss (Figure 3 of the third section) is a projection of the subject's unconscious "coldness (-)" onto the object of their thoughts. In other words, what the subject feels towards the object of their thoughts (the cold boss) is a manifestation of their own unconscious mind.

[0061] Thus, the phenomenon in which the subjective thoughts (+) that the subject has identified with are projected inverted onto the other person in front of them (objective: (-)) is defined as the phenomenon of "assimilation and reversal." In the example above, the "warmth (+)" that the subject (subjective) identified with was projected inverted onto the boss (objective), who is the object of the subjective thoughts, as coldness (-).

[0062] Computer 100 explains to the subject that, as described above, the subject's blind spot associated with the fifth figure 5 represents the assimilation of the subject's thoughts associated with the second figure 2, and also gives rise to the subject's unconscious associated with the fourth figure 4, and that the object of thought associated with the third figure 3 is a projection of the subject's unconscious associated with the fourth figure 4. Here, in the aggregate 10, the third figure 3 and the fourth figure 4 have a common shape, and the fifth figure 5 is related to the third and fourth figures 3 and 4. Since the shapes represent contrasting concepts, it is easy to grasp the relationships between the shapes from their shapes, making it easier to understand the recognition system represented by the collection 10.

[0063] Furthermore, computer 100 also explains the case in which the subject's thoughts (subjective) and the object of those thoughts (objective) are reversed. In that case, computer 100 explains to the subject that the blind spot in the mind of the object associated with the sixth figure 6 is assimilated with the thoughts of the object associated with the third figure 3, and also gives rise to the unconscious of the object associated with the seventh figure 7. Computer 100 also explains to the subject that, through the phenomenon of "assimilation and reversal," the subject's thoughts associated with the second figure 2 are a projection of the unconscious of the object associated with the seventh figure 7. In other words, although the polarity is different, computer 100 explains that within the mind of the object of the subject's thoughts, just as within the subject's mind as described above, there are unconscious and blind spots in the mind. Note that if the collection 10 does not include the sixth and seventh figures 6 and 7, this paragraph can be omitted.

[0064] In this embodiment, it is preferable that the second and third steps S2 and S3 are performed by a computer 100, which is a robot with artificial intelligence, while interacting with the subject and confirming the subject's level of understanding. Specifically, the computer provides explanations to the subject via the voice output device 104, receives the subject's statements via the sound collection device 105, and determines the subject's level of understanding by performing speech recognition processing. Alternatively, the subject's level of understanding may be determined by presenting a question on the display device 106 indicating whether or not the subject understood, and having the subject answer via the input device 107. Furthermore, the second and third steps S2 and S3 may be performed according to a predetermined dialogue pattern without performing speech recognition processing.

[0065] The time required for this third step, S3, varies from person to person. Some subjects can understand the cognitive system after completing step S3 just once, while others need to repeat step S3 multiple times.

[0066] In the third step, S3, participants can resolve their inner conflicts and restore mental balance by understanding their cognitive system. Specifically, their unconscious and blind spots become apparent in their thoughts. Although both the unconscious and blind spots were previously unnoticed by the participants, in the third step, S3, by understanding that their unconscious is projected onto the object of their thoughts through the phenomenon of "assimilation and inversion," participants can become aware of and bring to light their own unconscious.

[0067] In other words, the direction of thought, which was directed from the subject to the object of thought (the third figure 3), is reversed and directed towards the subject's own unconscious (the fourth figure 4). For example, if "the boss's coldness" is the object of thought, then "the boss's coldness" is a projection of the subject's unconscious coldness onto the boss. By reversing the direction of thought that perceives this coldness and directing it towards the subject themselves, the subject's unconscious (coldness) becomes manifest in their thoughts. Consequently, the subject can also become aware of "warmth," which is a blind spot in their mind that they have identified with. This is a state in which the subject's blind spot in their mind becomes manifest in their thoughts.

[0068] When the subject's unconscious (fourth figure 4) and mental blind spot (fifth figure 5) become apparent in the subject's thoughts, they merge and annihilate each other like positive and negative electrical energy. As a result, the thoughts that were the cause of the subject's mental conflict associated with the second figure 2 also disappear. Here, the first figure 1 is located at the vertex of the collection 10, which includes the first to seventh figures 1 to 7 arranged symmetrically, and has a shape and pattern that is not biased towards either "+" or "-". In other words, the first figure 1 eliminates the subject's thoughts (second figure 2) that were biased towards "+", and the subject's perspective shifts from the second figure 2 to the collection 10. This can be said to symbolize a shift to a position that provides an overview of the entire cognitive system (Figure 1). As a result, Figure 4 (-) and Figure 5 (+) annihilate each other, and as the subject understands that their perspective has shifted from Figure 2 to Figure 1, their unconscious and mental blind spots easily annihilate. In other words, Figure 1 represents a state of mental balance where judgments such as whether something is warm or cold are not made. That is, Figure 1 simultaneously provides an overview of Figure 2 and Figure 3, and further provides an overview of Figure 7 from Figure 2 to Figure 7, thereby acquiring a new perspective and indicating that the subject has reached a relaxed state in their mind where neither "affirmation (+)" nor "negation (-)," that is, neither the (+) nor (-) poles, exist.

[0069] As the subject's unconscious mind (the fourth figure, 4) disappears, the projection of the subject's unconscious mind—that is, what the subject perceives as the object of their thoughts (the third figure, 3)—also disappears. As a result, the subject is able to restore their mental balance.

[0070] For example, if "the boss's coldness" is something the subject of thought is perceived, resolving this internal conflict will eliminate the subject's perception of the boss's coldness, and the stress caused by the boss will also disappear.

[0071] The same applies when subjectivity and objectivity are reversed. That is, the thought that was the cause of the subject's mental conflict associated with the second figure 2 disappears, and at the same time, the third figure 3, which was the object of that thought, also disappears. At this time, the unconscious associated with the seventh figure 7 in that person's mind also disappears, and consequently, the blind spot associated with the sixth figure 6 also disappears.

[0072] By associating the sixth and seventh figures 6 and 7 with the blind spot and unconscious of the mind, respectively, the subject can more easily understand the cognitive system shown in the aggregate 10.

[0073] 4. Others Although embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various modifications are possible without departing from the spirit of the invention.

[0074] In the above embodiment, the first figure 1 was a dashed circular frame, but it may also be a shape that combines four pairs of Möbius strips, such as a white circle as shown in Figure 78(a), a black circle as shown in Figure 78(b), or as shown in Figure 78(c).

[0075] In the above embodiment, the case where the subject's thoughts are directed towards their superior was used as an example, but the subject's thoughts are not limited to this. The subject's thoughts may be directed towards the subject's parents, spouse, friends, children, or anything else that is causing the subject's inner conflict.

[0076] 4-1. Variation 1 Furthermore, the object of the subject's thinking does not have to be a person. For example, if a subject feels that the community to which they belong is "unfair," then the object of this subject's thinking is "that community." An example of applying the method according to the present invention to such a subject will be explained below, based on Figure 6.

[0077] First, in step S1, the computer 100 prompts the subject to recall the aggregate 10. Next, in step S2, the computer 100 assigns the subject's emotions and mental state to the shape of the aggregate 10. The contents of steps S1 and S2 are as described above. It is similar to that in terms of form.

[0078] Next, in step S3, the computer 100 helps the subject understand the recognition system represented in the set 10 based on the contrast between the second figure 2 and the third figure 3, and between the fourth figure 4 and the fifth figure 5. Specifically, the computer 100 explains the following events to the subject.

[0079] In the subjects' minds, there exist two polar concepts: "justice (+)" and "injustice (-)." In the mental conflict created by these two concepts, "justice" prevails over "injustice," and the subjects' thoughts (Figure 2 of the second diagram) become assimilated with "justice." Therefore, subjects are usually unaware of their own "justice," and "justice" becomes a blind spot corresponding to Figure 5 of the fifth diagram. At the same time, the subjects' "injustice" is subconscious, and they are unaware that it is their own state, becoming an unconscious state corresponding to Figure 4 of the fourth diagram. The "injustice" that subjects feel towards the community (Figure 3 of the third diagram) is a projection of the subjects' unconscious "injustice" onto the object of their thoughts. In other words, the subjects' assimilated "justice" is projected onto the object of their thoughts as "injustice" through the phenomenon of "assimilation and reversal."

[0080] Based on the above explanation, when a subject understands the cognitive system represented by collective 10, their unconscious and blind spots become apparent in their thinking. In other words, by reversing the direction of their thinking, which had previously been based on a sense of "injustice" in the community, and directing it inward, the subject becomes aware of their own unconscious (injustice), and this unconscious becomes apparent in their thinking. Consequently, the subject also becomes aware of their "sense of justice," which was a blind spot in their mind that had been identified with them, and this blind spot also becomes apparent in their thinking.

[0081] As a result, the subject's unconscious (the fourth figure, 4) and their blind spot (the fifth figure, 5) annihilate each other, and consequently, the thoughts that were causing the subject's mental conflict, associated with the second figure, 2, also disappear. At the same time, what the subject feels towards the object of their thoughts (the third figure, 3), onto which their unconscious is projected, also disappears. As a result, the subject is able to restore their mental balance. Therefore, the subject no longer feels injustice towards the community.

[0082] 4-2. Variation 2 As another example, applying the method according to the present invention to a subject who feels insecure about others results in the following:

[0083] First, in step S1, the computer 100 presents the aggregate 10 to the subject to help them recall it, and in step S2, the computer 100 assigns the subject's emotions and mental state to the shape of the aggregate 10. The contents of steps S1 and S2 are the same as those in the embodiment described above.

[0084] Next, in step S3, the computer 100 helps the subject understand the recognition system represented in the set 10 based on the contrast between the second figure 2 and the third figure 3, and between the fourth figure 4 and the fifth figure 5. Specifically, the computer 100 explains the following events to the subject.

[0085] In the subjects' minds, two polar concepts exist: "superiority (+)" and "complex (-)." In the internal conflict, "superiority" prevails, and the subjects' thoughts (Figure 2 of the second diagram) become assimilated with "superiority." Therefore, subjects are usually unaware of their own "superiority," and "superiority" becomes a blind spot corresponding to Figure 5 of the fifth diagram. At the same time, the subjects' "complex" is subconscious, so they do not recognize it as their own state. It cannot be consciously perceived and is an unconscious phenomenon associated with the fourth figure 4. The "complex" that the subject feels towards the object of thought (the third figure 3) is a projection of the subject's unconscious "complex" onto the object of thought.

[0086] Based on the above explanation, when a subject understands the cognitive system represented by collective 10, their unconscious and blind spots become apparent in their thinking. In other words, by reversing the direction of their thoughts—which previously involved feeling a "complex" towards the object of their thinking—and directing them towards themselves, the subject becomes aware of their own unconscious, and this unconscious becomes apparent. Consequently, the subject also becomes aware of their "superiority complex," which is a blind spot in their mind that they have identified with, and this blind spot in their mind also becomes apparent.

[0087] As a result, the subject's unconscious (the fourth figure, 4) and their blind spot (the fifth figure, 5) annihilate each other, and consequently, the thoughts that were the cause of the subject's mental conflict associated with the second figure, 2, also disappear. At the same time, what the subject felt towards the object of their thoughts, onto which their unconscious was projected (the third figure, 3), also disappears. As a result, the subject is able to restore their mental balance. Therefore, the subject no longer feels inferior to others. [Examples]

[0088] The following describes examples of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0089] In the example, the present invention was implemented using computer 100 on 265 subjects. Computer 100 was a general-purpose personal computer on which the computer program according to the present invention was installed. After the implementation of the present invention, a questionnaire was administered to the subjects, and 10% (26 people) were randomly selected and compiled. The questionnaire asked about the changes that the subjects felt before and after the implementation of the present invention. The results of the responses are shown in Figures 79(a) and 79(b). (a): Did you understand the recognition system represented in this set 10? Understood: 90%, Did not understand: 10% (b): For those who answered that they understood (a), have you noticed any changes? Change occurred: 100%

[0090] As shown in Figure 79(b), all respondents who answered that they "understood" the cognitive system represented in the aggregate 10 also answered that there was "a change" before and after the implementation of the present invention. This indicates that after the subjects understood the cognitive system represented in the aggregate 10, they became aware of two mental polarities corresponding to at least the fourth and fifth figures 4 and 5, each of which became manifest in their thinking, and their mental balance was restored as their unconscious and blind spots disappeared.
