What Is Power of Thought?

The “Power of Thought” is the ability to use the mind or “focused thought” to create positive change.

We generally focus on using the mind to effect healing in individuals and situations with:

Guided Meditation

Visualization

Vibrational Energy Movement or Hands-On Healing

Dowsing/Intuition

Our Founder - Harold McCoy

Harold McCoy established a record of many incredible healings, from tumors to depression to diabetes, all using the “Power of the Focused Mind.” His mission was to teach as many people as possible to use his healing techniques.

After retiring as a military intelligence officer with 24 years of service, Harold was elected as president of the American Society of Dowsers for four years and trustee for eight years. After receiving a grant, he went on to establish the non-profit Ozark Research Institute. The Institute is chartered to study and teach the power of the mind as it pertains to spontaneous remission or miraculous healing of chronic or life-threatening diseases, as well as all other manner of mind phenomena. Harold taught the power of the mind techniques for more than 30 years.

His book and DVDs are available for sale here.
