I've been interested in Phineas Parkhurst Quimby for over a year now.
Ever since I listened to Dr. Ervin Seale's series of lessons entitled "The Quimby Writings" in February, 1981 at the Unity Village Chapel.
I've been intrigued by what the healing methods were he referred to.

Especially since Myrtle Fillmore of Unity cured herself of TB in the 1880's.
"On Healing - No Date" in the concordance is interesting. It probably helps to know Consumption is the old term for TB.
NOTES ON CLASS LECTURES OF JULIUS DRESSER and ANNETTA DRESSER,
Notes from the Dresser Class - 1887 and
Mrs. Dresser's lecture of Jan. 17th 1888 are interesting and will appeal to anyone in the healing arts, students of A Course in Miracles, Unity and Divine Science.
Be determined to be happy - circumstances are not necessary to happiness - there is Wisdom and happiness enough always - turn towards it and look for it.
Perception or intuition is more natural to some than others, but can be acquired by all - it comes through the putting aside of self.
Our false ideas of ourselves are what make us unhappy - form the true idea & you have infinite happiness & power.
Our attitude of mind towards those about us influences them to correspond to our idea of them, so that we have much power in the direction of health or sickness, by our unconscious thought even of those about us.
We make our own happiness or our own misery indenpendant of circumstances - for no matter how sad the circumstances - or unfortunate the surroundings - there is wisdom & happiness enough - we have only to turn to it.
All matter exists in mind - so our bodies exist only in our minds - if we had no mind we could have no body - it is sensations & ideas in us which we call body.
The Dressers were early patients of Quimby along with Warren Felt Evans and Mary Eddy Baker who founded Christian Science. Charles Fillmore(co-founder of Unity) ands Malinda Cramer(co-founder of Divine Science) were both students of Emma Curtis Hopkins(the Teacher of Teachers) who had studied with Mary Baker Eddy. So these lecture notes offer a view of what the views were at the time.
How to Know When You Have Truth
You are light and you are loved.

All is forgiven and released.
Mrs. Dresser spoke of there being nothing of themselves in their treatments - that they made themselves mediums to the Healing Power - or rather it was as if she & her patients were both in a room, bright with sun-light & the patient had a thick bandage over her eyes - her work was to remove the bandage & let her see that the light was all around her - that she had only thought, it was dark.I prefer "instrument of healing". I think you'll find just holding their hands and repeating one of the above phrases over and over in your mind is enough. It's up to the mind of the patient what healing will occur.
