What is Mary Baker Eddy’s healing method?
A15. The complete statement of Mary Baker Eddy’s healing method, which she defined as “Christian Science,” is outlined in her primary work, Science and Health with Key to Scriptures. This spiritual healing practice grew out of her Biblical research and first-hand explorations of the medical treatments of her day. Chronically ill from childhood, she sought help from diverse healing systems, including drugs, diets, water-based therapies, and homeopathy. Her study and practice of homeopathy led her to some important insights into the mental nature of illness and cure—what is known today as the mind/body connection. See Healing Practice to read more.
