The Law Of Attraction can lead to psychological self harm?
Sure, it can. Self harm is indeed what you can choose to attract, although it's not a very good thing to attract. Unless you're into that sort of thing, I guess.
Most people will have heard of the Law Of Attraction through The Secret. This is where the problem lies. By watching the Secret, you become aware of this thing called the Law Of Attraction. It doesn't give you understanding that is needed to attract in 'a proper way'.
With 'a proper way' I mean that you shouldn't try to manifest good things from bad things, for example. You will never become truly happy if you're feeling unhappy or unworthy from the inside. I'm not referring to visualization methods, autosuggestion and that sort of things.
To call the Law Of Attraction a lie is too exaggerated. In fact, it is not true at all. It are the lies that we create and live by that are dangerous and will lead to self-destruction.
After watching The Secret, it is important to read more about it. Read a lot. And not only read, but also learn about it.
