Hidden Power for Human Problems: The 7 Parent Thoughts Behind All Human Thoughts and How to Overcome Them

Feeling down and out? Think that the world is against you? Frederick Bailes has this quick self-help tip for you: It's not how you feel that matters, but what you do. You may have thought it went the other way around, I did. I'd tell myself, "I'll get up earlier, when I have more energy. I'll return phone calls, when I'm not so moody. " All the while, such thoughts weakened me. Bailes colors this entire book with stories that hit to the heart of how humans destroy themselves and all the while blame their suffering on an impartial reality. I will not divulge story examples here because it would soften the profound psychological impact that Bailes' words have on the reader. I read "Hidden Problems for Human Problems" aiming to lift my spirits. Mission accomplished.

What can I say, this book by Frederick Bailes is FABULOUS! When I read about his description of 'parent thought' vs 'master thought', i said to myself "Wow! Why hasnt anyone written about this before!". Where has this book been, in all these years I was trying to find the correct method to treat my false beliefs! As a hint, there are only 7 False Core Belief that most people have that caused ALL their problems. Defeat those 7 Core False Thoughts, and you can be sure no negative thought can be 'created' by your mind anymore! Dr Bailes healed himself of diabetes with New Thought, after reading Thomas Troward's book. Even if you have read New THought books for years, this book is still a must! It categorises the False Beliefs of race consciousness, and teaches the True Beliefs to neutralize the false ones. Now we have all read in other New Thought books that "there is no loss" "no competition" etc, but those concepts by other authors were a little all over the place, don't you agree? They were great and knew what they were, but no one ever put them in categories (to be attacked/healed with Master Thoughts) like Bailes does! FURTHERMORE, the author seems to be really creative and intelligent in coming up with ingenius visualization techniques (could he have been the first NLP practitioner??). Plus he teaches several verbal affirmations that make it easy for you to belief it, such as "Of course it is working even now, whether I can believe it or not". Also recommended is Dr Bailes' Science of Mind Treatment book, which details all the mental visualization tricks he has. This guy is way ahead of his times!

This inspiring book provides workable suggestions and practical examples on how to apply the power of thought to overcome problems and illness. The first part deals with the author's own discovery of universal law and gives examples of how others were helped. Part Two contains all the methods of harnessing universal laws and includes: - How to give a healing prayer treatment; Five different methods for setting the creative process in motion; Blueprint of parent (error) thoughts and the (corrective) master thoughts to overcome them. There are helpful summaries at the end of each chapter and at the end, a guide-list for overcoming specific problems. A very good read and a valuable reference work that should be on every healer's shelf.

My father bought this book in the 50's and it changed his life. Later, he shared it with me when I was having some problems and I liked it so much that I have never given it back. I have read it at least once a year ever since. This year my eleven year old son and I are reading it together so I am passing on this tradition to the next generation. When my father and I read it we had to change our way of thinking. If my son begins to read it now, hopefully he will always think about things the right way. Our book is so old and falling apart and I didn't realize that Frederick Bailes' book was still available and that several other books by him were also available. We are looking forward to getting some of the other books and to buying not only a new copy for us, but also some to give to friends. If you haven't read this, you should. Your life will never be the same.

I've read this book at least 40 times, and each time, it brings me something new. Since putting its very practical and explicit suggestions into practice in my life, wonderful things have happened in my financial affairs, my health, & much more. It has been such a life saver, that I read it myself onto a cassette tape that I play over & over as I drive in my car.
