Works Of Florence Scovel Shinn

Florence Scovel Shinn's approach to New Thought is practical, filled with references to popular culture (she made an elaborate parable out of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs). Shinn was attempting to bring metaphysical ideas down to earth for everyday people, and she succeeds for the most part. Affirmations are at the center of Shinn's method. She wrote a huge number of pithy affirmations which are still circulating in the New Thought literature and society at large today. Her books continue to appeal to readers who want guidance in difficult times.
