FAQ On Law of Attraction

Does following the Law of Attraction go against traditional religion?

On the contrary. Many have proved this goes along WITH traditional religions. People call the ultimate force in the Universe many different names; “The Universe”, “God”, “Allah”, “Buddha”, and MANY more. The older texts on the Law of Attraction, particularly one of my favorites; “The Power of Your Subconscious Mind” by Dr. Joseph Murphy quotes the bible as agreeing and it has many sayings that are perfectly aligned with the Law of Attraction.

So if this is true where is the proof? Has medical science proved ANY of this? Can what I think and my behavior REALLY effect my health?

Yes, there is proof and there have been numerous medical studies done. The study of the mind's affect on the body is called Psychoneuroimmunology.

Psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) investigates the relations between the psychophysiological and immunophysiological dimensions of living beings. PNI brings together researchers in a number of scientific and medical disciplines, including psychology, neuroscience, immunology, physiology, pharmacology, psychiatry, behavioral medicine, infectious diseases, and rheumatology.

The profound interest of PNI is in interactions between the nervous and immune systems, and the relation between behavior and health. Despite the protean approach to research, the outcome common to all research endeavors is the discovery of new information, or novel evidence, which contributes to the continuing and cumulative generation of knowledge.

It deals with, among other things, the physiological functioning of the neuroimmune system in states of both health and disease; malfunctions of the neuroimmune system in disorders (autoimmune diseases, hypersensitivities, immune deficiency), the physical, chemical and physiological characteristics of the components of the neuroimmune system in vitro, in situ, and in vivo.

So can I just sit on my couch, imagine what I want, think positive thoughts and get rich?

No! “The Secret” has been criticized because some people after seeing it believe this is the way. If you watch it a few times and if you pursue other Law of Attraction readings you will see this is not the case at all. You need to be positive to have good constructive thoughts come to you. You need to set goals to set micro-steps to achieving these goals. You have to act on the thoughts that come. Sitting around wishing to hit the lottery won’t do it – you need to want something and act accordingly in order to get it. What it does help is your frame of mind to be in a state where you will get more inspiration – it is up to you to ACT on that inspiration when it comes. As James Ray says, “They will come and take your furniture away”.
