Understanding Spiritual Mind Treatment

Spiritual Mind Treatment

In Religious Science, we use a form of prayer called Spiritual Mind Treatment. It is a scientific method of affirmative prayer that is done as a form of mental treatment to realize the health and happiness which are mankind’s normal and divine heritage. It works according to the laws of mind. We each share the One Mind and as we individually recognize and affirm the essential Goodness of Life, it reveals itself in our life.

A treatment should be done in a calm, expectant manner with a deep, inner conviction of its reality without any fear that the human mind must make it effective. Man’s life is rooted in the Universal and the Eternal, which is none other than the life of God. The healing process, so far as it may be termed a process, is in becoming conscious of this eternal truth. Treatment should always incorporate a conscious recognition that health has always been ours, abundance has always been ours, happiness and peace have always been ours; they are ours now, for they are the very essence and Truth of our being.

Steps of Spiritual Mind Treatment

1. RECOGNITION

We begin with the recognition of God as the essence of all and the very ground of all being. This is the most important step, because you are turning consciously to the truth of Life. Do not proceed with your treatment until you are fully steeped in this recognition. Speak this word of recognition that God is all.

2. UNIFICATION

Allow your emotions, body and intuition to assist in the full recognition of yourself as Divine substance. Know and feel the unity of all in God. Declare this as True. I am now thinking with the Mind of God.

3. REALIZATION

Turn completely away from the issue at hand and affirm God manifesting its perfect qualities as your life. Catch fire and thrill in this Divine realization. See it, feel it, in every detail. Open up all avenues of thought and let Reality through. Remember that you are finding and realizing this truth for yourself and that this treatment takes place within your own mind. That is all that is needed for the healing to occur. As you align your own consciousness and declare that all good is already yours by your very nature, the Power of God reveals its presence in all things.

4. GRATITUDE

Open your heart with gratitude for this Blessing occurring in your life now.

5. RELEASE

Let go. There is no more for you to do. The law is neutral and always works. Know that it is done now.

Secrets of Effective Treatment

  1. Remember to listen. Although you are praying for a specific purpose, you reals aligning yourself with Infinite wisdom. Go slowly and follow any inner guidance that directs your words and ideas into complete alignment with the Divine.
  2. Speak the word of your heart. Your own truth cannot be denied. Emphasize the inner qualities and leave the outer manifestation to God.
  3. Be passionate. Pray with fire. Miracles are at hand. It is all so amazingly Good!

Prayer is its own answer. —Ernest Holmes
