6' - The Art and Science of Personal Magnetism
The book The Art and Science of Personal Magnetism by Theron Q. Dumont is a guide to developing and mastering personal magnetism. Dumont argues that every individual possesses personal magnetism and can strengthen it through conscious effort. He breaks down personal magnetism into two phases: mental magnetism and physical magnetism. Mental magnetism is the ability to project thoughts and influence others through the power of the mind. Physical magnetism, or nerve force, is the vital energy of the body that can be harnessed to enhance mental influence. Dumont provides practical exercises for generating and projecting both mental and physical magnetism through controlled breathing, physical exercises, and mental visualization. He also explains how to develop a positive aura, which is the personal atmosphere that surrounds individuals and influences those who interact with them. Dumont concludes by discussing magnetic self-defense, which involves using the power of the mind to resist the influence of others and shield oneself from negative magnetism.
