Life Power and How to Use It

Towne, Elizabeth: - Elizabeth Towne was an American New Thought writer, editor, publisher, and lecturer whose work helped shape the practical and popular side of the New Thought movement. Through her books, periodicals, and publishing activity, she promoted the idea that thought, belief, will, and spiritual understanding could be consciously directed toward health, prosperity, happiness, and personal growth. Towne was closely associated with the development of applied metaphysics and mind-power teaching in the United States, and her writing often combines spiritual confidence with plain practical instruction.As the founder of the Elizabeth Towne Company and editor of Nautilus Magazine, she became one of the most visible women in New Thought publishing, providing a platform for metaphysical religion, positive thinking, mental science, and self-culture. Her books remain of interest to readers of classic self-help, spiritual self-development, New Thought philosophy, practical metaphysics, and the history of women publishers in American religious and motivational literature.
