This is a very short chapter that starts out like this:
The body is the servant of the mind. It obeys the operations of the
mind, whether they be deliberately chosen or automatically
expressed. At the bidding of unlawful thoughts the body sinks
rapidly into disease and decay; at the command of glad and beautiful
thoughts it becomes clothed with youthfulness and beauty.
Those who practice positive thinking and affirmations will realize the truth of Allen’s assertions. There is an excellent series of articles on affirmations and even subliminals an the effect on health at www.FitnessAndHealthblog.com. The link will take you to an article with links to the rest.
Emil Coue` was one of the first to write of the phenomena of affirmations. As a druggiest he began handing out an affirmation with the prescription and soon he found a profound connection between the recipients use of the affirmation and the effectiveness of the medicine. Allen puts it like this:
Strong, pure, and happy thoughts build up the body in vigour and
grace. The body is a delicate and plastic instrument, which responds
readily to the thoughts by which it is impressed, and habits of
thought will produce their own effects, good or bad, upon it.
We hear much these days about eating the right stuff, but that is not the whole thing. A persons mind can torture and negate any gains made by diet.
Change of diet will not help a man who will not change his thoughts.
When a man makes his thoughts pure, he no longer desires impure
food.
The bottom line is a comprehensive approach that includes keeping the law of attraction on your side with a focus on health and vitality even when symptoms might suggest otherwise.
If you would protect your body, guard your mind. If you would renew
your body, beautify your mind. Thoughts of malice, envy,
disappointment, despondency, rob the body of its health and grace. A
sour face does not come by chance; it is made by sour thoughts.
Wrinkles that mar are drawn by folly, passion, and pride.
…
There is no physician like cheerful thought for dissipating the ills
of the body; there is no comforter to compare with goodwill for
dispersing the shadows of grief and sorrow. To live continually in
thoughts of ill will, cynicism, suspicion, and envy, is to be
confined in a self made prison-hole. But to think well of all, to be
cheerful with all, to patiently learn to find the good in all–such
unselfish thoughts are the very portals of heaven; and to dwell day
by day in thoughts of peace toward every creature will bring
abounding peace to their possessor.
The mind cannot focus on the reverse of an idea so always picture yourself whole and well. Charles Hannel, a contemporary of Napoleon Hill and whose work is said to have influenced Hill wrote and spoke about his experience with a powerful Affirmation bringing him into a state of health.
All of nature points to looking to the future and expecting the best as a way that brings you to the better place. Denis Waitley author of “The Psychology of Winning” makes a huge case with statistics for visualizing the outcome you want in order to produce that outcome.
Use the law of attraction, As A Man Thinketh is a powerful statement of how the law works.
