Collected here in this omnibus edition are three landmark books from the New Thought movement. Genevieve Behrend, Florence Scovel Shinn, and Elizabeth Towne were three amazing women who were driving forces behind the New Thought movement. In the Game of Life and How to Play It, Florence Scovel Shinn gives us the rules to the game of life. But more importantly she also gives us a manual that instructs us on how to win that game. A wonderful and simple-to-follow book on the power of right thinking. In How to Live Life and Love It, Genevieve Behrend gives you practical lessons that are designed to help you manifest the power of the Law of Attraction in your everyday life: “The purpose of this series of personal-pointer Lessons, which are herein compiled into one volume, is to indicate in a clear, concise way ‘the natural principles governing the relation between the creative action of all thought-power and material things,’ i.e., circumstances and conditions. If these few simple principles are carefully studied, and mastered to your satisfaction, and then put into practical, hourly application, the student will find very soon that it is possible To Live Life and Love It!”–Genevieve Behrend In Life Power and How to Use It, Elizabeth Towne shows you how to use the Laws of Attraction in everyday life to improve every facet of your life. This books forms part of the foundation that today’s best-selling books such as The Secret and The Law of Attraction are built upon.
This is a book that was given to my partner for her B-Day. Just asked her what she thought of it and she says that it is good. She states that some of the writing is older, since these books are from a hundred years ago, but the underlying principles are the same today. She says it’s about positive thinking, focusing on the Good. These authors are familiar to me. I have been reading New Thought authors and Metaphysical writings for some time now. Just in case anybody’s interested, these authors were read by the first members of Alcoholics Anonymous. This type of Spiritual lit. can be extremely helpful to a person in recovery. It’s a way to take a step beyond “don’t drink and go to meetings”, and move towards becoming a “productive member of society.” Always have to be careful in recovery. It’s about sticking with it, but not get stuck. Reading books like this can help a person to be healthy, happy, harmonious, and involved with Life, instead of avoiding it.
