The Science of Being Well, by Wallace D. Wattles (1860 - 1911)

All audio files can be found on our catalog page: https://librivox.org/the-science-of-being-well-version-2-by-wallace-d-wattles/
The sequel to "The Science of Getting Rich", this book discusses how the power of positive thinking, and other specific habits can improve your health. Having lots of money and "success" is of no use if you are too sick, stressed or diseased to make use of it. This book outlines the basic thoughts you should hold in your mind about God and health, and gives a practical guide to eating and resting that should lead to healthier living. It explores the principles of health with the aim to lead you to a physically healthier and happier life. (Summary by Daniel Sanchez)

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).

Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process unless you are the BC or PL. Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

I've listened to the Preface, which is well-read and PL OK.
*One note, you must use the double section numbers in the filenames to keep them in the correct order in the uploader. :wink:
