Dianetics is a set of ideas and practices regarding the metaphysical relationship between the mind and body which was created by L. Ron Hubbard and is practiced by followers of Scientology.

Hubbard coined Dianetics from the Greek stems dia, meaning through, and nous, meaning mind.

When Hubbard formulated Dianetics, he described it as " a mix of Western technology and Oriental philosophy ".

Hubbard claimed that Dianetics could increase intelligence, eliminate unwanted emotions and alleviate a wide range of illnesses he believed to be psychosomatic.

Hubbard variously defined Dianetics as " a spiritual healing technology " and " an organized science of thought.

Hubbard always claimed that his ideas of Dianetics originated in the 1920s and 1930s.

Hubbard first introduced Dianetics to the public in the article Dianetics: The Evolution of a Science published in the May 1950 issue of the magazine Astounding Science Fiction.

Hubbard wrote Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health at that time, allegedly completing the 180, 000-word book in six weeks.

The success of selling Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health brought in a flood of money, which Hubbard used to establish Dianetics foundations in six major American cities.

Hubbard described Dianetics as " an organized science of thought built on definite axioms: statements of natural laws on the order of those of the physical sciences ".

Unlike conventional therapies, Hubbard said, Dianetics would work every time if applied properly and " will invariably cure all psychosomatic ills and human aberrations.

Some of the psychometric ideas in Dianetics can be traced to Sigmund Freud, whom Hubbard credited as an inspiration and was said to have used as a source.

According to Bent Corydon, Hubbard created the illusion that Dianetics was the first psychotherapy to address traumatic experiences in their own time, but others had done so as standard procedure.

One treatment method Hubbard drew from in developing Dianetics was abreaction therapy.

According to Hubbard, before Dianetics psychotherapists may have been able to deal with very light and superficial incidents ( e. g. an incident that reminds you of a moment of loss ), but with Dianetic therapy, the patient can actually erase moments of pain and unconsciousness.
