Louise Hay (Author)
Louise Hay was an inspirational teacher, incredible visionary, and self-help pioneer who educated millions since the 1984 publication of her bestseller, You Can Heal Your Life, which has more than 50 million copies in print worldwide and spent 16 weeks on the New York Times bestsellers list. She appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show and many other TV and radio programs both in the U.S. and abroad.
Renowned for demonstrating the power of affirmations to bring about self-healing and positive change, Louise was the author of more than 30 books, including the bestsellers The Power Is Within You and Heal Your Body. In addition to her books, Louise produced numerous audio and video programs, card decks, online courses, and other resources for leading a healthy, joyous, and fulfilling life.
Louise was dubbed "the closest thing to a living saint" by the Australian media and in 1985, Louise began her famous support group, "The Hayride," with six men diagnosed with AIDS. By 1988, the group had grown to a weekly gathering of 800 people and had moved to an auditorium in West Hollywood.
In 1987, what began as a small venture in the living room of her home turned into Hay House, Inc.: the largest publisher of self-help books, events, and courses. Hay House has sold millions of books and products worldwide and now has offices in California, New York, London, Sydney, Johannesburg, and New Delhi.
The non-profit Hay Foundation, established by Louise in 1986, continues to support organizations that enhance the quality of life for people, animals, and our environment.
