Collection: Julia Seton

Portrait of New Thought author and lecturer Julia Seton — Julia Seton, physician, lecturer, and New Thought teacher.

Julia Seton brought together concentration, mental science, spiritual self-culture, and the practical cultivation of personal power. A physician and lecturer as well as a New Thought teacher, she wrote during a period when metaphysical thinkers were attempting to connect attention, emotion, bodily experience, and conscious self-direction.

Her books range from disciplined concentration and the “Silence” to success, poise, mood, faith, enthusiasm, and the solar plexus as it was understood within early twentieth-century metaphysical psychology.

Where to Begin with Julia Seton

Concentration: The Secret of Success (1912) is the clearest starting point for Seton’s method of directed attention, breathing, visualization, mental stillness, and the “Silence.”

The Science of Success (1914) develops a broader program of self-knowledge, planning, emotional discipline, faith, enthusiasm, concentration, happiness, poise, and constructive power.

The Psychology of the Solar-Plexus (1914) is Seton’s most unusual exploration of emotion, vitality, breath, intuition, and period mind-body theory.
