About the book
"The Game of Life and How to Play It" by Florence Scovel Shinn is a self-published spiritual guide published in 1925. The book teaches that life's outcomes depend on understanding and applying various "Laws of Metaphysics." Shinn explores concepts like the power of words and imagination, the importance of intuition over specific desires, and spiritual laws including karma, non-resistance, and forgiveness. Drawing on Christian teachings while sharing ideas with Christian Science and New Thought movements, she offers a practical philosophy for navigating life's challenges through spiritual awareness and intentional living.
