The Science of Psychic Healing

Mind over matter... The natural over the artificial... These were the unspoken mantras of the proponents of New Thought the mystical movement at the turn of the 20th century that sought to unleash the forces of the universe within humanity. One of the most influential thinkers of this early New Age philosophy promises here in this 1909 book to show the reader how to to spread the glad tidings of Health and Strength by using the bodys Prana or Vital Force; by direct control of the bodys cells via the mind or mental healing; and by calling the light of higher thought down on the body or spiritual healing. An appreciation of our higher nature the yogi reminds us will result in an healthy sense of physical rejuvenation. A century later its a lesson many of us-in our anxious stressful times-can continue to benefit from. American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932) was editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905 and editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books under numerous pseudonyms some of which are likely still unknown today including Yogi Ramacharaka and Theron Q. Dumont.
