The Science of Being Well
Wattles, W. D. (Wallace Delois)
Health; Mental healing; New Thought
If you would consciously relate yourself to the All-Health, your purpose
must be to live fully on every plane of your being. You must want all
that there is in life for body, mind, and soul; and this will bring you
into harmony with all the life there is. The person who is in conscious
and intelligent harmony with All will receive a continuous inflow of
vital power from the Supreme Life; and this inflow is prevented by
angry, selfish or antagonistic mental attitudes. If you are against any
part, you have severed relations with all; you will receive life, but
only instinctively and automatically; not intelligently and
purposefully. You can see that if you are mentally antagonistic to any
part, you cannot be in complete harmony with the Whole; therefore, as
Jesus directed, be reconciled to everybody and everything before you
offer worship.
_Want for everybody all that you want for yourself._
The reader is recommended to read what we have said in a former work[A]
concerning the Competitive mind and the Creative mind. It is very
doubtful whether one who has lost health can completely regain it so
long as he remains in the competitive mind.
[A] The Science of Getting Rich.
Being on the Creative or Good-Will plane in mind, the next step is to
form a conception of yourself as in perfect health, and to hold no
thoughts which are not in full harmony with this conception. Have FAITH
that if you think only thoughts of health you will establish in your
physical body the functioning of health; and use your will to determine
that you will think only thoughts of health. Never think of yourself as
sick, or as likely to be sick; never think of sickness in connection
with yourself at all. And, as far as may be, shut out of your mind all
thoughts of sickness in connection with others. Surround yourself as
much as possible with the things which suggest the ideas of strength and
health.
Have faith in health, and accept health as an actual present fact in
your life. Claim health as a blessing bestowed upon you by the Supreme
Life, and be deeply grateful at all times. Claim the blessing by faith;
know that it is yours, and never admit a contrary thought to your mind.
Use your will-power to withhold your attention from every appearance of
disease in yourself and others; do not study disease, think about it,
nor speak of it. At all times, when the thought of disease is thrust
upon you, move forward into the mental position of prayerful gratitude
for your perfect health.
The mental actions necessary to being well may now be summed up in a
single sentence: Form a conception of yourself in perfect health, and
think only those thoughts which are in harmony with that conception.
