The Science of Being Well: Health from a New Thought Perspective (Classic Unabridged Edition) (Annotated)
Enriched Edition. A practical New Thought handbook for health and mind-body harmonyBy Wallace D. Wattles
Length3h 27m
About this audiobook
The Science of Being Well presents Wallace D. Wattles's systematic argument that health is not merely the absence of disease but the result of living in conscious harmony with a creative, intelligent universe. Written in a clear, declarative, and instructional style, the book belongs firmly to the early twentieth-century New Thought tradition, where metaphysical healing, mental discipline, and practical self-culture converge. This classic unabridged edition preserves the work's concise structure and its characteristic blend of spiritual philosophy and pragmatic counsel. Wattles, best known for The Science of Getting Rich, was an American New Thought writer shaped by the era's fascination with mental science, Christian idealism, and the democratization of self-improvement. His own struggles with poverty and ill health appear to have intensified his search for universal principles that could be applied to everyday life, leading him to frame wellness as a matter of thought, faith, action, and ordered living. Readers interested in the history of alternative healing, mind-body philosophy, or American metaphysical religion will find this volume especially rewarding. Though modern readers may approach its claims critically, the book remains a lucid and influential document of New Thought optimism, offering insight into a movement that profoundly shaped contemporary wellness culture.
