À propos de l'auteur

Laura M. Westall was an early twentieth-century writer associated with the mind-cure and New Thought tradition. Little biographical information about her survives in common reference sources, but A Common-Sense View of the Mind Cure shows her as a practical expositor of mental healing rather than a purely mystical or sectarian writer. Her work reflects a period when writers, lecturers, reformers, and religious experimenters were attempting to understand the relation between thought, nervous health, physical symptoms, spiritual discipline, and personal transformation.Westall's importance rests chiefly on this concise treatment of mind cure. Unlike more heavily theological New Thought texts, A Common-Sense View of the Mind Cure presents mental healing in plain terms, emphasizing the influence of mental habits, attention, fear, suggestion, and expectation on the body and emotions. That makes the book useful for readers studying the historical roots of positive thinking, mind-body healing, spiritual self-help, and the alternative health movements that helped shape twentieth-century American metaphysical religion and personal development literature.
