The American metaphysicians James Porter Mills M.D. (1847-1926) and his wife Anna W. Mills, formerly of Chicago but later based in New York and London, are generally seen as “the pioneers of the New Thought Teaching in Australia.” From 1897 to 1898 Dr and Mrs Mills taught New Thought and carried out healing sessions in Australia. They briefly revisited Australia in 1900, lecturing in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Hobart, before departing for California.
Dr James Porter Mills, a medical doctor, was the celebrated author of many early New Thought and metaphysical books including Illumination: Spiritual Healing (1914), Inspiration: The Great Within (1914), A New Order of Meditation (1915), From Existence to Life: The Science of Self-consciousness (1916), and Mind's Silent Partner: The High Counselor Within (1922).
Anna W. Mills wrote the first edition of her classic book Practical Metaphysics for Healing and Self Culture (1896) while in Australia. She is also the author of The Law, Life and Love as well as the book How Thoughts Build the Body.
