The New Thought Movement

The New Thought Movement is a spiritual movement that emphasizes the power of the mind to influence reality, health, and success. It teaches that positive thinking, beliefs, and mental attitudes can shape one’s experiences, promote well-being, and attract abundance. Rooted in the idea that divine energy or universal mind is present within everyone, followers advocate that by aligning their thoughts with this energy, they can manifest desired outcomes. Originating in the late 19th century, it combines philosophical, spiritual, and practical approaches to personal growth, emphasizing optimism, self-awareness, and the mind’s creative potential in achieving a fulfilling life.
