I agree dandy, and while I can't say that I've read anything that specifically falls under this heading I CAN say that I've used positive thinking a LOT in my recovery.
While Lipton's work is based in science, it actually ends up proving that environment rules over genetics.... meaning, that what we believe in our core self is what we experience/manifest. Which means creating a positive, nurturing environment for ourselves is the only way to bring our healthiest self forward.
It might be the #1 tool I've used in all honesty, because it permeates so many areas of my life:
I changed my passwords to be positive-thought focused so that 100x per day, I'm forced to think "happy thoughts", even just for a second.
My vision board is literally a physical representation of the positive things I want to manifest in my life - it hangs on my bedroom wall.
I write in a positive word journal daily - not journaling thoughts, only positive words.
I've used SO MANY mantras ("I am enough", "I am worthy of love", "I am lovable"), mirror-work, feng shui, quantum theory.

I've spent equal time studying gratitude & appreciation (& the difference between them) as I have the more negative sides like abandonment, fear, scarcity, etc.
However, I'm not going to argue that meditation isn't equally useful. Once I finally committed to doing it & not playing around with it, I started to recognize that it was helping in ways I hadn't expected - patience, detachment, etc. It helped me create space internally for the positive stuff to take root. I find it funny that it was Deepak's advice though - so many of his meditations hinge on using positive-focused Sanskrit mantras.
