Women's Wisdom: Three Foundational Texts of the New Thought Movement

By Florence Scovel Shinn, Geneviève Behrend, Genevieve Scovel Behrend, et al.

Book Overview

This omnibus volume gathers three influential works by leading women of the early New Thought movement, written in the first decades of the twentieth century.

At a time when metaphysical Christianity and constructive thought were reshaping American spiritual discourse, Florence Scovel Shinn, Genevieve Behrend, and Elizabeth Towne articulated practical and philosophical approaches to spiritual law, affirmation, and conscious creation. Their writings helped shape the vocabulary and discipline of modern prosperity spirituality.

Included in this edition are:

The Game of Life and How to Play It by Florence Scovel Shinn, a concise exposition on affirmation, expectancy, and alignment with spiritual principle.

How to Live Life and Love It by Genevieve Behrend, presenting structured lessons on the creative action of thought and the disciplined application of mental law.

Life Power and How to Use It by Elizabeth Towne, exploring the cultivation of inner strength and the responsible use of constructive thinking in daily life.

Taken together, these works represent a foundational expression of women's leadership within the New Thought tradition. Their tone is direct, practical, and grounded in spiritual causation rather than emotional appeal. The ideas articulated here would influence later developments in prosperity teaching and affirmative spirituality throughout the twentieth century.
