The History of The Law of Attraction
It all started in the early 19th century when Phineas Quimby set into motion the New Thought Movement. This movement is based on the concept of the superior power of “mind over body” and that “the body is only the house for the mind to dwell in”.
In the late 19th century, Helena Blavatsky, an occultist, and philosopher used the term “Law of Attraction” for the first time in her book. She used it to refer to the attraction between elements of spirit. Prentice Mulford, an author, and pioneer in the New Thought movement used the Law of Attraction in a general sense covering all aspects of life. Most of the universal laws of attraction were laid down by him. After Mulford, came other New Thought authors such as Henry Wood and Ralph Waldo Trine. Through their books, the doctrine reached the masses and started gaining fans. The 20th century witnessed a slew of authors propounding the concept. This includes the best-selling books of all time – Think and Grow Rich (1937) by Napoleon Hill, The Power of Positive Thinking (1952) by Norman Vincent Peale, and You Can Heal Your Life (1984) by Louise Hay. Abraham-Hicks has authored numerous books on the topic. The Secret (2006), the movie by Rhonda Byrne, renewed the interest in the concept. The film was followed by a book of the same name the next year. The sequel The Power (2010) portrays the Law as the law of love. A host of celebrities has endorsed the thought process and explained how to attract positive things into your life using the Law of Attraction. They include Oprah Winfrey, Jim Carrey, Will Smith, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jay-Z, LMFAO, Conor McGregor, and Lady Gaga.
