New Thought and New Age spirituality, emerging in different eras, have distinct influences and characteristics. New Thought, rooted in scientific Christianity, emphasizes the mind's power, positive thinking, and the law of attraction, with historical ties to Jesus Christ's teachings. New Age spirituality, a more recent synthesis of diverse traditions, focuses on holistic practices and cosmic interconnectedness. Both share beliefs in consciousness, empowerment, and interconnectedness, impacting mainstream culture. While New Thought emphasizes the mind-body connection, New Age spirituality includes a broader spectrum of holistic practices. They differ in historical roots, core beliefs, and practices despite common themes.
