The Science of Mind is Ernest Holmess Magnum Opus. The book was updated and revised over the years and this edition was originally published in 1926.In 1918, Holmes wrote in the introduction, This little book is an attempt to explain what each soul must discover for himself, that he stands in the midst of an eternal creative power which presses itself around his own thought, and casts back to him glorified all that he thinks.

The catalyst of what became New Thought seems to been Phineas Quimby, a New England, Hypnotist, Philosopher, and Healer, who inspired amongst others, Mary Baker Eddy, (a patient of Quimbys) to form the Christian Science Movement.

For example, a person who is sick would focus on being in a state of good health as if he or she were already in good health. Another analogy might be if someone was trying to lose weight and was praying for help, they wouldnt say, I want to lose weight as that would imply they were over-weight; they might say I have lost weight or Im losing we
