To find Peace Erase all Fear from your Subconscious – Florence Scovel-Shinn

There is no peace or happiness for man, until he has erased all fear from the subconscious.

Fear is misdirected energy and must be redirected, or transmuted into Faith.

Find Peace

Jesus Christ said, “Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?” “All things are possible to him that believeth.”

I am asked, so often by my students, “How can I get rid of fear?”

I reply, “By walking up to the thing you are afraid of.”
“The lion takes its fierceness from your fear.”

Walk up to the lion, and he will disappear; run away and he runs after you.

The lion of lack disappeared when the individual spends money fearlessly, showing faith that God was his supply and therefore, unfailing. Continue reading “To find Peace Erase all Fear from your Subconscious – Florence Scovel-Shinn”

Florence Scovel-Shinn on Making-Believe to Impress the Subconscious

Making Believe - Daily Vigilance

Making-Believe to Impress the Subconscious

Continually “making-believe,” impresses the subconscious. If one makes believe he is rich, and makes believe he is successful, in “due time he will reap.”

Children are always “making believe,” and “except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter the Kingdom of Heaven.”

I know of a woman who was very poor, but no one could make her feel poor. She earned a small amount of money from rich friends, who constantly reminded her of her poverty, Continue reading “Florence Scovel-Shinn on Making-Believe to Impress the Subconscious”

Give Thanks for Small Things

Give Thanks - Daily VigilanceGive Thanks for Small Things for it is a Sign of Larger Things to Come – Florence Scovel-Shinn

The student must remember also, not to despise the “day of small things.”

Invariably, before a demonstration, come “signs of land.”

Before Columbus reached America, he saw birds and twigs which showed him land was near. So it is with a demonstration; but often the student mistakes it for the demonstration itself, and is disappointed. Continue reading “Give Thanks for Small Things”

Active Faith is Essential to Impress the Subconscious

Abundance - Daily VigilanceIn order to impress the subconscious, active faith is always essential.

“Faith without works is dead.” I endeavor to bring out this point.

Jesus Christ showed active faith when “He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground,” before he gave thanks for the loaves and the fishes.

I will give another example showing how necessary this step is. In fact, active faith is the bridge, over which man passes to his Promised Land.

Through misunderstanding, a woman had been separated from her husband, whom she loved deeply. He refused all offers of reconciliation and would not communicate with her in any way. Continue reading “Active Faith is Essential to Impress the Subconscious”

Music and the Subconscious Mind

Music and the SubconsciousThe subconscious is often impressed through music. Music has a fourth dimensional quality and releases the soul from imprisonment. It makes wonderful things seem possible, and easy of accomplishment!

I have a friend who uses her victrola, daily, for this purpose. It puts her in perfect harmony and releases the imagination.

Another woman often dances while making her affirmations. The rhythm and harmony of music and motion carry her words forth with tremendous power.

Darkest Before Dawn – Florence Scovel-Shinn

Darkest before Dawn - Florence Scovel Shinn

One of my students once asked me to explain the “darkness before the dawn.” I refer to the fact that often, before the big demonstration “everything seems to go wrong,” and deep depression clouds the consciousness. It means that out of the subconscious are rising the doubts and fears of the ages. These old derelicts of the subconscious rise to the surface, to be put out.

It is then, that man should clap his cymbals, like Jehoshaphat, and give thanks that he is saved, even though he seems surrounded by the enemy (the situation of lack or disease). The student continued, “How long must one remain in the dark” and I replied, “until one can see in the dark,” and “casting the burden enables one to see in the dark.”

Clearing your Vision

Power of Thought - Florence Scovel-ShinnI have noticed, in “casting the burden,” after a little while, one seems to see clearly. It is impossible to have clear vision, while in the throes of carnal mind. Doubts and fear poison the mind and body and imagination runs riot, attracting disaster and disease.

In steadily repeating the affirmation, “I cast this burden on the Christ within, and go free,” the vision clears, and with it a feeling of relief, and sooner or later comes the manifestation of good, be it health, happiness or supply.

Cast your Burdens on the Christ Within

Cast your Burdens on the Christ Within - Daily VigilanceOne of my students had been given a new piano, and there was no room in her studio for it until she had moved out the old one. She was in a state of perplexity. She wanted to keep the old piano, but knew of no place to send it. She became desperate, as the new piano was to be sent immediately; in fact, was on its way, with no place to put it. She said it came to her to repeat, “I cast this burden on the Christ within, and I go free.”

A few moments later, her ’phone rang, and a woman friend asked if she might rent her old piano, and it was moved out, a few minutes before the new one arrived. Continue reading “Cast your Burdens on the Christ Within”
