Law of Attraction (New Age)

For other uses, see: Laws of attraction (affinity); Laws of Attraction (movie); Laws of science (physics)The Law of Attraction is commonly associated with New Thought and New Age theories, beliefs, and practices. It states that people experience physical and mental manifestations that correspond to their predominant thoughts, feelings, words, and actions and that people therefore have direct control over reality and their lives through thought alone. A person's thoughts (conscious and unconscious), emotions, beliefs and actions are said to attract corresponding positive and negative experiences, or "harmonious vibrations of the law of attraction". The "law of attraction" states "you get what you think about; your thoughts determine your experience." Although this idea has been popular among certain philosophers and denominational adherents for centuries, the idea has received intense criticism from multiple circles in the media, the scientific community, and even some areas of the New Age Movement.
